Sir: We have the honor to inform you that in view of the announcement in the press that the federal government has issued orders to the excommunicated boards of the country separating the names of white and colored soldiers and sanctioning the policy of establishing segregated Colored regiments we hereby enter our most salient arrest profiles against the excommunicated boards to make any distinction among their living liaisons on account of race or color, to this crisis for their country as being unauthorized by the Conscription Act and as being unjust, unconstitutional We are further informed that the federal government has decided to adopt the policy of "Jim Crow cars for the Colored soldiers, in transporting them to southern camps.

The call for soldiers to defend the flag in this crisis is addressed to all American citizens, and we invite the regiments be for training provided for all soldiers and sailors without making any distinction based on race, if we are to realize the spirit of true democracy in its fullest sense.

Policeman and Newspaper Man Make Up Fake 'Riot' Story; Defender Brings Truth to Light --- In a futile attempt to destroy the good feeling and harmony that exist between the Seventh Infantry (white) and the Eighth Regiment, a cub rebel, the Eighth Regiment, gotten himself into a serious mix-up in his attempt to create a scoop for the newspaper he manufactured a wicked and harmful lie that has been sent broadcast, and not if nailed in its may may seem as a background for so-called violence and tranquility of feeling that has so long been heralded in the two regiments. Soon after the report was carried in to be published the Examiner office called up Adjutant Patton in order to light the fire in a blood-blooded lie over the wire for the purpose of confirming the cub-reporter's story. Adjutant Patton immediately notified the Examiner office that he was no longer able to use all means to obtain some light on the situation and report his findings later. He at once called the officer of the day and questioned him thoroughly and that officer told him that he had been informed of any conflict during the day. The misinformation arose out of the fact that some soldiers of the Examiner office were on Thirty-fifth street and Wentworth avenue Saturday night and a woman informed them that a member of the Race had been beaten up near the corner of Wentworth avenue. The soldiers decided that they would walk TO LAY CORNERSTONE M. Louis, Mo. Sept. 14. Sunday at 3 p. m. the St. Louis Y. M. C.

Is Dead Baltimore, Md., Sept. 14—Harry Smythe Cummings, member of the city council of this city and a prominent figure in civics affairs, died at his home, 1818 Druid Hill avenue, last Thursday, night. A complication of diseases is said to have caused his death. He had been in ill health for the past year, and was forced to take law practice and miss many sessions at the city council on this account. Mr. Cummings finished the public schools of this city, and later entered Lincoln University, Oxford, Penn, where he graduated in 1868, receiving a degree of bachelor of arts. His early education was on board and acting upon this desire he matriculated in the University of Maryland 1867, and finished the law course in 1869. He and the late Charles W. Johnson were the only Race men to graduate from the institution. He was admitted to the university, and enjoyed a large and lucrative practice up to the time of his illness. He entered politics in later years and was elected from the 17th ward as Councilman for three years, and served as the publicity when he seconded the nomination of Roosevelt at the Republican convention in 1904, where he was serving as representative for the 4th Congressional District.

DON'T SAY I WANT A PAPER SAY I WANT A CHICAGO DEFE DER Second EDITION Grand Jury Holds Him Responsible for Riot Finds Thirty-Nine Others Guilty Trials Start October 1 By J. M. Batchman East St. Louis, Ill., Sept. 14.—The investigation into the recent riot situation here has reached such a high pitch and proceeded with such persistence that there seems to be some grounds for the belief that some good will actually result from the carnival hood and mob violence that played out with both races in this city recently. From all evidence it is highly probable that the obstreperous element will derive a great object lesson from this case. The police were consulted with them, as they have been very uncompromising in their attitude toward participants in the July massacre, Saturday the St. Clair county police department against thirty-seven persons, but their names were withheld pending their arrest. This same grand jury indicted 105 persons on Aug. 14 on charges of murder, assault, and were prominent police officials, who greatly aided the notorious element in its wholesale slaughter upon the lives of the victim and his companion, included in this board of advice that helped the mob are the Hon. (2) May- or Mollman and his private secretary, Maurice Ahearn. These men acted as stars in plotting the rough-neck white murderers in the attempt to crush and kill the jury. A first return of the jury to Judge Crow sixty-three indictments carried a total of 384 individual cases. Demony sheers up to last Tuesday had arrested seventy-three, thirty-two of whom were released on bonds to the other jurors. The Belleville J capiases have been issued for the other thirty-two. Conditions have been critical since the grand jury has been hard at work. After the last day of the riot a number of white people left the city, and SAVED FROM THE SOUTH Charged With Murder But His Release is Secured by Habeas Corpus Judge Joseph David of the Superior court is no friend of the southern sheriffs who think they have unlimited right to kidnap rape men and take them to charge they see fit to hatch up. And he took occasion last week to score Chicago police methods by which men were arrested, kept hidden in police cars or attorneys and then turned over to these kidnapping sheriffs to be taken to southern penitentiaries. Lee Chalmers, a hard-working honcho, worked at a west side foundry Saturday morning, charged, according to the police story, with having killed two white men in South Carolina and running away Chicago. He was hit in the back by a police car delivering him over to any other state sheriff. During the day (Monday) he located Chalmers, but the police would not book him so he could be taken a writ of habeas corpus, they booked him and secured a continuance, which still kept the poor man in jail. That did not satisfy his lawyer, who brought the case to the police for a petition for a writ of habeas corpus and the judge issued his order and the police officers were compelled to bring the prisoner to the police demand the police show the papers upon which Chalmers was being held they admitted that they had no papers to show he was charged with murder, but they charged him to give them to hold him until the papers came. Judge David was thoroughly aroused by the excuse used to justify the outrageous treatment of the prisoner which had been committed to keep the prisoner in jail. "Every man, poor or rich, white or black, has a right to be protected by the law, and if you have no lawful warrant to hold this prisoner you cannot hold him on a charge which shows perjury. The prisoner is discharged." The wife, relatives and friends of the prisoner rejoiced with him over his delivery from his wrongful accusers. It is hard to imagine the murder was committed fifteen years ago, but Chalmers says it is a false charge. He has been living in Chicago nine years and he intends to stay here, where judges know the law and refuse to let color affect their judgment. ROBBED WHILE ASLEEP CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 14. —William S. Scarborough from his slumbers Monday morning to find $'s gone, which he had left in his mouse's pocket. DR. H.S.CARBOROUGH HERE Dr. W. S. Scarborough of Wilberforce university, was in the city this week on business for the school. He paid the Defender office a visit. PRICE 5 CENTS FAKE CTED Holds Him able for Riot ne Others Guilty rt October 1 it is reported that many are still slipping away under cover of night. The September grand jury meets on the September 11th, and it recommends that it continue the work with some seriousness and earnestness in order to stamp out the unruly element, in its report it says: "We have not been able to find the head and return indictments against all who have committed crimes in the recent riots in East St. Louis. The grand jury of the September term in 1714 had indicted that they continue this investigation and return indictments against others who are guilty of having committed crimes." Mayor Mollman was elected on a "law and order" platform in 1915 and was re-elected last spring. His indictment on Saturday was on a charge of nonfiance in office, and inter neglect of justice, law and order, and that he greatly abetted the mob in its inflated rashness. It is claimed that he surpassed with a coterie of corrupt politicians a submission to the laborer agents who used him as a means to an end. The better elements of whites have begun to resist the resignation and state that he greatness can contribute is to fulfill their wish. Maurice Ahearn, the secretary to Mollman, was also indicted for conspiracy, the specific charge against him being that the mayor used him to intimidate all of the citizens and stroved all photographs relative to the riots. The assistance he rendered the mob was valuable, and his only aim was to cripple the grand jury in its search for evidence. The report states that the mayor gave greater aid to the rioters than to the police and Ahearn, it is alleged, teamed to the event to act as a mouthpiece for their political advisers, and that they repulsed all aid offered by law-abiding citizens to help quell the riot. The militia and refused to direct the mayor also failed to enlist the services of the deputy sheriff and turned a deaf ear on the appeal of citizens to aid the sheriff. His lack of knowledge of the law and order's the prime object of his removal from office and a more efficient person placed in his steed. Some of the labor agents who have used him as a tool are now trying to skulk behind rhetorical utterances and those who are now suffering as a result of the disrespect of law and order. Following the riots a committee of 100, composed of business and professional men of the city, formed the committee to bring law and order into the mudded governmental affairs. The board of fire and police commissioners resigned, the fire and police, J. F. Rehl, Fred Gleissner, a merchant, and D. Foey, local representatives of the Southern railway, were appointed on the new board. The body was the controlling element in the attempt to department on an efficient basis. The penalty for malfeasance in office, with which Mollman is charged, is a fine of $2,000. The office conviction he is ousted from office is stated that Mollman's bond is fixed at $2,000 and Ahearn's at $1,000. Mollman has been on a vacation (?) near Atlanta. He abern refused to make a statement until charges are presented directly. Accuse Pastor Quinn Chapel of Drawing the Color Line (Special to the Defender) Louisville, Ky., rev. Rev. J. R. Harvey, pastor of Quinn Chapel A. M. E. church, is coming in for biter criticism. He is said to have regenerated the Race at a recent choir contest held in his church, refusing to al- piment members of the Race to the scats reserved for "white people." He seems to have added insult to his reputation by all white judges to decide the contest. The criticism is led by Dr. Edward Bates, prominent physician. BUNDY CASE LAGS CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 14—Attorney John Sullivan dismissed hawes corpus prosecution cases.

FOR HAIR THAT WILL STAY STRAIGHT USE PALM CREAM AND PALM OIL The only safe and guaranteed straightener on the market. Say, Clara, Mr. W. would be a very handsome young man if it wasn't for his awfully bad hair, wouldn't he? Oh, he's all right now; he had his barber treat his hair with Palm Cream, and now he is simply a dream. Our Palm Cream will not only straighten hair, but will keep it straight. Water or change of climate will not affect it. We have thousands and thousands of men today—men in all walks of life throughout this country, South America, the West Indies and various parts of Africa—using our goods. It is not always that a manufacturer can succeed with his goods in his own home town. He often has to seek fields far away. But not so with us. We have succeeded in our home. If you know a barber in New York, write and ask him what he thinks of Palm Cream. Palm Oil is an accessory to Palm Cream, as it grows the hair and keeps it beautiful. If your hair is harsh and dry or brittle it needs Palm Oil. If it is sick, stubborn and will not grow it needs Palm Oil. Palm Oil is not that soft, greasy mess used by so many people for the hair. It is dry and neat; it will not grease your hat, but will give your hair that beautiful, silky, glossy effect so much desired by everyone. Big inducements offered to agents. Special rates to barbers.

A great bill was presented for the first half on Monday night; there was a diversified group of offerings that satisfied the most exacting, and held up best, the last minute. The first on was the Wonder Act, which introduced to the demonstration of the use of liquid air; the act was well named and the fents, with an eating eggs on a cake of ice, stewing ice cream hard over a fire and solidifying alcohol, some of which exacting, and hold every seat filled to the last minute. The Wonder Act, which introduced a fine demonstration of the use of liquid air, the act of blowing and mending and the feats, such as frying eggs on a cake of ice, stewing ice cream, fire and solidifying alcohol, something that is commonly considered The last half week held over Harrison Stewart & Viola, who continued very popular. The Three Anderson Sisters, dancers extraordinary, put over some speedy terpiscoreum stuff that was great. They were followed by Kitty Flynn in topical songs that wont over, and the other in novelty, and last on Moreno, Navarro and Moreo, in a great hand balancing and acrobatic net. AT THE MONOGRAM An all-time favorite presented this week, the place of honor will have to be given Chicago's old time favorite, Lotte Grady, who returns with the same popularity of former visits, plus added hairstyles made by her eastern trip, which has been chronologically added. Grady had added many new features to her clever act, and her mimicry and impersonations are a distinct hit with the folks who pack the theater at every performance. Her costumes are remarkable and the lightning changes made by her are as attractive in result as the hairstyles she was accorded a fine reception on Monday night. Boots Hope is another single on the bill that deserves more than passing mention. He has a distinct manner that is different from the ordinary line followed by monologues from star to finish. Selmon & Sellmon, one of the cleverest pairs seen in a long time, have a line of comedy talk, topical songs and clever dancing that more than pleased: the work is full of action, and the comedy clean. The comedy is frivolous, the trude Miller, formerly of the Waterman Trust, and Ludle W. Johnson, have an act that lives up to the great advance notices sent ahead, and is full of pep and laughter. Miss Miller is a singer of topical songs that knows her clever partners, gives as raced twenty minutes of real entertainment as a ticket buyer could ask for. The bill continues over Sunday.

His partner is also a comedian, and the team it would be hard to find their finale, aside from several split-week acts, all of which are above the ordinary, we are running the following feature films: *The Wire*, *The Burglar*, and the Lady, The Plow Woman, The Neglected Wife, and The Golden God.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "ON TRIAL" A 'romarkably strong cast will be seen in "On Trial," the great Essayan special, which comes to the States theater for two days, Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 15th and 16th. It is headed by famous star, Sydney Alnaworth and he has supreme support. A short synopsis follows: Robert Strickland is on trial for the murder of Gerald Trask. Strickland pleads guilty and does not want a robbery being the cause of her Trask and Glover, her husband's secretary, take the witness stand. Then they are shown as on the night of the crime. Hearing a revolver shot, they rush into Gerald's room. Gerald with a revolver in hand is standing over Trask's body. The safe is open and $10,000 gone. Loris, little daughter of Strickland takes the revolver. She discovers that her mother had lost her purse near Trask's home. She tells her father about it. Mrs. Strickland is the next witness. She is portrayed as a victim of her mother, she admits her relations with Trask. She is then portrayed as before her marriage being made the dupe of Trask. After her marriage she is shown at his mercy. He threatens ex-convict Roberto, unless she does what he asks of her. Strickland then takes the stand. He has faced electrocution rather than expose his wife, but with all the details now out, he admits that he went to the police to report his wife to the right to the wrong to his wife. Glover is forced to admit the robbery. The jury's verdict is "not guilty." Exactly as it appeared on the stage, "the woman was filmed, by the limited opportunities offered by the stage, the picturization is even a greater hit than the drama. CONSOLIDATED GROWS One of the most interesting advertisements seen on this page for a long time is the one that starts in this issue, and placed by the Consolidated Martin Klein has had for a long time a frame a set of theaters that would permit him to send nets all over the country, from the northern border to New Orleans and east of the Rocky mountains. On his trip a short time ago, he commutated deals whereby companies would week in as many different cities is made possible, the routing being laid out in a manner which will permit the jumps being made without the possibility of a lay off on account of distance. This enables Mr. Klein to handle the number of acts that are loyal to the old Consolidated. He wants to hear from acts all over the country, whether or not they have been north or south of the city, and if he will be given prompt attention. Managers who want acts will do well to write also. BIG ACTS COMING There will be two acts seen at the Grand next week that are far above the ordinary; for the first half, beginning on Monday night, the team of the act is one of the best featured. This act is one of the best featured and the patrons of this house will surely enjoy it.

Atlanta, Ga. - Dr. Jacobson said in a recent interview that 90 per cent of anemia comes from nervous breakdowns, which can only be corrected by supplying the necessary phosphates to the nervous system that is lacking in the food you eat, and this can be quickly supplied by taking one or two 5-grain Argo-Phosphate tablets after each meal, and at bed time. It will in many cases make a pale, sedurous face the picture of health in a few days. I have seen women that I expected would have to be kept under treatment for months restored to perfect health in a few weeks. OFFICIAL NOTICE: The Argo Phosphate recommended by Dr. P. H. Jacobson contains phosphates such as are prescribed by leading physician throughout the world, and it will be found the most effective form for treating patients with extreme post-disaster.

Where must they encamp—in the north, where friction is at low ebb; or in the south, where friction is an tap at a moment's notice? No stone has been left un- turned by the southerners that would block the traops {rom coming to their section. ‘The East St. Louis and ‘Texas riots have been worn to a frazzle as Exhibit “A"—meaning against the invasion, Talk about a united country and the interest of one-being the interest of all! It listens well, makes digestible reading. but is very indigestible in action. ‘The ignorant, the prejudiced and the disloyal express sentiments such as these found in a Texas paper: “It is not a time to talk about ‘fair- nness' to Negro troops that have caused no trouble, It is not a time to make observations to the effect that if these troops cannot br afely sent to the south, then the south ig ta blame. Itis not a time, in short, to go into sitb- tleties of the race question. ‘The COLD FACT IS THAT NEGRO TROOPS CANNOT SAFELY BE QUARTERED IN A SOUTHERN COMMUNITY. The War Department was wrong. Why not prevent further trouble by withdrawing all Negro troops from the south immedi- ately?” . Fortunately Secretary: Baker is not the kind of man that can be affected by every varving wind. He has made no change in his original order to send all troops to the cantonments designated. In his position he knows, or should know. that no-one section of the country should dominate any other section: he knows that internal strife, at this particular stage in the war game, is fatal to success; he knows that one-tenth of Uncle Sam's fighting force ig black: he knows while they are one-tenth in numbers they are ten: tenthé in lovalty and fighting strength; he knows that if his depariment can- not control the situation in our own country, it has little chance of doing cffective work in other countries: he knows, from the Revolutionary war up. we have enlisted willingly. and our record has always heen a brilliant one: he knows to belittle our worth at this time is uncalled Yor and unjust. The matter is one of nation-wide interest. In faci. in the south it constitutes one cf the most disquieting issues connected with the enforcement of the draft law. ‘Sur recrulte tnvst ad ill be traited.
