j Perth ■ Amboy, N. J.—A crowd of
6,000 persons broke up a meeting of
the Ku Klux Klan in Odd Fellows’
hall, seventy-five .policemen and one
hundred and fifty firemen being un
able to drive back the throng ’ that
stormed the building. Firemen drove
trucks into the mass of people, but
to no avail, A hurry call was sent
for state police in Trenton,
Patrolmen fired shots in the air,
threw gas bombs and swung their
night sticks, while the firemen turned
streams of water on the fighting
throng.
Tho leader^ of the mob were knock*
ed down by patrolmen when they first
started to advance toward the hall,
but, after they had been carried awdy,
another attack was started. This time
stones were thrown and all windows
in Odd Fellows hall — as well as
many nearby dwellings — were
broken.
Police Chief Toneson then ordered
his men to throw tear gas bombs and ;
thirteen of these, the town’s entire
supply, were exploded. The crowd
fell back, but advanced again, hurling
more stones. It was then that a llot
can was sounded and one hulndred
and fifty firemen dashed to the scene,’
After the firemen had run their ap
paratus directly at the surging mass;
of humanity and had failed to dis-
perse the crowd, they attached hose
lines to every available hydrant and;
drenched the rioters with several
3treams of water. Daunted for a few;
seconds, the crowd fell back. Several]
of the more sturdy, however, braved
the water and cut the hose lines with
axes afid knives, while those in the
crowd threw stones at firemen. !
As one man darted from the crowd
some one Bhouted, ’’That man has a
gun.” A patrolman seized him, shoved
him into an automobile and hurried
him tb the police station. Other cars,
loaded with men followed, but the pris*
oner was rushed through the station
:$nd locked in a stable at the rear.
After feearching the station those who
had followed returned to the scene of
the fight.
The quiet lasted only for a short
time. Three automobiles in which
policemen were escorting klansmeM
away from the hall were surrounded
by the crowd and one of . the cars was
overturnel. The occupants were giv
i'll a severe leatingv The other Oars
got .away, but one of,them soon was
met by smother crowd. . ThiB bar also
was overturned, and its occupants
beaten. The patrol wagon which had
Btarted away earlier with a number of
the klansmen was met on the road
leading to Eewaren, five miles froth
here, and the passengers were taken
out and given a beating.
The roads leading into Perth Amboy
ware* clogged with thousands of auto
mobiles carrying residents of othex]
lawns who huL heard of tho fight ’Jlid
first squad of state trooperB was soon
reinforced by others and they mam
aged to drive the milling throng back
one block from Odd Fellows hall.
Every doctor and druggist in the city
was busy bandaging heads and treat*
Ing other wounds received by mem
bers of the police force, the klatn and
the opposing faction. Although sev
eral shots were fired in the three
hours of violent fighting, some of the,
attackers, police asserted there wafe
uo report of anyone having been hit;
with a bullet. It was believed that
none had been injured seriously. ;
