WHITES ADVANCING INTO 'LITTLE AFRICA'

NEGRO DEATH LIST IS ABOUT 15


There was an unconfirmed report at 6 o'clock that three more white men had been killed in the latest clash with the blacks, but it could not be verified. With the coming of dawn this morning, following a night of race rioting and death, hundreds of armed white men in motor cars formed a circle of steel about "Little Africa," and a continuous rattle of rifle and re-revolver fire could be heard. Sixty or seventy automobiles filled with armed men were in the line drawn about the 'black belt' and there were many reports to the effect that they planned to, rage through the negro settlement and "clean it out."
