CANTON, China, June 13. The
attacking Kwanetuna; and Can
ton forces under IJolshevik officers,
after a fierce attack on the defend
ing Yunnanese army, today forced
them to BurretaoVr Canton and to
day imposed extreme cruelties on
sotdlt.-ra and civilian population as
well.
The attacking force landed
-2,fl00 soldiers at Tunttuhan and
fi-om that point they attacked, leav
ing the defending forces without
river transportation facilities and
therefore unable to launch a coun
ter attuck. -After
landing the Kwangtung
troops pave the surrendering forces
no consideration, although the de
feated troops had voluntarily given
up their arms.
The winning forces then began
looting the city. This was not con
fined to stations of opposing army
forces but extended to homes of
pon-combatant citizens.
Kevolting scenes followed In all
parts of the cily, many of which
were stoned and beaten by mobs.

lost their senses. ,

diers strewn along the roads. -
The surrendering Yunnanese
troops In many cases were beaten
to death by the Kwangtung forces.
From Shameen. th foreign popula
tion saw a conquered soldier com
mit suicide by diving into the river
after witnessing the killing of his
com rades.
The winning forces either shot
defeated troops or threw them Into
the river after beating them with
bamboo, stones and rifles.
looting was carried on In an
extensive manner. The winning
troops took even petty ar.tlc.es of
household property In their canj
pHign of terror.
The principal cause of the de
feat of the Yunnanese troops, not
driven out of Canton, was the
t readier! in the ranks of the
K wanes, troops, who quit for a
cash consideration.
Considerable damage was done
to buildings owing to heavy gun
fire. The most revolting scenes
Inside the city were caused by the
Kwangtung troops.
The defeated army leaders swore
they would return to avenge the
wrongs done today.
Ten thousand Cantonese troops
now are on the Canton side of the
river, ail wearing red neckties. The
success in capturing the city was
attributed to the leadership of Rus
sian officers.
Kighting began at Canton eight
days ago between rival elements
of former followers of the late Dr.
Sun Yat-Sen, the South China lead
er. 1 The Immediate cause of the
trouble was the efforts of the Can-
: tonese government to dismiss the
Yunnanese army, former allies of
the Cantonese under Sun Yat-Sen's
regime. The dismissal was desired
because the support of the army
had beconfe burdensome to the Can
tonese government.
Yunnanese generals tinder Gen
erals Yang Hsl-Min and Lau Chun-
, Wan and their troops bad complete
control of Canton.
I Cantonese troops under General
Hsu Ch-Ung-Chl, reinforced by
General Chu-Pei-Tak, attacked the
i Yunnanese occupying Canton with
the object of freeing the city from
their rule.
Today's dispatch Indicates this
effort had been successful.

The appearance of Chang Hslen

pervision over the stations south of
Eugene to the state line, will make
his headquarters tn this city In the

First Reports Stated That
Man Was Doing Double
Stunt for Jack
Holt.
According to a t tephone mes
sage to the New, -Review this
morning from .la Haas, exploita
tion representative of the Famous
Lanky motion picture company,
who Is In Coquille today. It. D.
Jones, the Hollywood actor, who
was drowned In the Coqullte ri
ver yesterduy, when his canoe up
set, was not doubling for Jack
Holt. The -actor was In a canoe
shoving the logs down Into the
river when one of the flood gates
of the dam was partially opened
and the rush of water caused the
canoe to nose into some rocks
which upset It. Mr. Jones was a
fine swimmer and was able to
keep his head above water Vor
fully a mil's, although he could
not reach the banks on account
of the swiftness of the current.
He was 25 years of age and has
a wife and two children In Los
Angeles. He has been with the
Wlllat unit for the past two years.
According to Mr. Haas, the river
Is being dragged In an effort to
recover the body, the work con
tinuing all last ntght without suc
cess. It Is thought that he has
been carried a Ion? distance
downstream by the strong waters
running the log Jam. The river
Is now Inw however, and is reced
ing rapidly and hopes are enter
tained that the man will soon ba
found. Every possible "effort Is
being made to recover the body.
Jones was sent through the Su
gar Loaf Canyon, a dancerous
narrowing of the rfver.. with ra
pids and rocks. His canoe struck
first one rork and then another
and overturned.
Jones was one of alout 12 men
sent here for preliminaries on
James Curwood's "Ancient High
way.' The party consisted of a
number of cameramen and several
actors who were at the scene1 when
Jones was lost.
The film company had arrang
ed wl'h a splash dam company for
special features, like opening
dams and filming the rush of the
logs. The work was well advanc
ed when the dam was opened to
day and the cameramen ' were
nearlng the end of the work wlilrh
wo'ild have soon been laid aside
until some tfm In July, when the
man capt of the picture is due.
The dam was openedx partially
and a considerable volume of wa
ter was pouring out when Jones,
dr'f-lnr In h-s canoe, struck the
rocks and soon went under after
being nn'Gt.
The dam was shut down to wait
for the excitement of the occasion
t sub'lde and the scene will be
tried over.
Irwin Wlllat, directing the mo
tion picture operations here, fell
from a log boom todny sjid wna
Hererply battered by logs In the
rushing water before he was pul
led out of the river. His own po
sition prd that n' his rescuors

CHICAGO, June 13. Gangsters
and police shot It out today at close
quarters in a revolver fight result
ing In the death of two police ser
geants and of Michael Genna, of
the attacking gang, and the wound
ing of a third policeman and Sen
na's two companions, Genna is
believed to have been a brother of
Angelo -Genna, gangster recently
assassinated,- and the killings are
believed to presage a bitter police
war against gunmen and beer run
ners. Superintendent of police Morgan
A. Collins declared the police kill
ers should be Indicted and hanged
before the day ended.
Two of the wounded men may
die. Shortly before noon, the
death list stood at three:
Police Sergeant Charles Walsh:
almost Instantly killed.
Sergeant H. Olson, died In a hos
pital.
Michael Genna, gangster: died
of wounds.
The wounded:
Sorgeant Michael Conway, shot
near the heart; may die.
John Scale, gangster.
Albert Anmalie, gangster.
The fight burst after a chase of
nearly mile and a' half on West
ern Avenue after the police squad
or lour sergeants from the detec
tive bureau auw a large automo
bile speeding aouth.
Tha police car turned and pur
sued. The gangsters Increased the
speed of their car and at Sixtieth
Street their driver lost control and
the car erashed Into an Iron fens.
The detective sergeant squad
came to a stop a few feet away
and the gangsters tumbled or
jumped from their car. with revol-,
vera and sholguns ready for ac
tion.
A fusslllade of slugs and bullets
was launched at the police squad.
The first deadly volley dropped
sergeant tllson when a slug crash
ed through his mouth and shatter
ed his jaw. A hall of bullets rid
dled Walsh, killing him Instantly.
More than fifty shots were fired,
tho crashing of firearms alnrmlng
the neighborhood. The fight took
place on Western Avenue, the
Dixie highway entrance to Chicago
rrnm ( ne south.
As tho police sergeants fell und
er tho severe fire of the gangsters,
Genna and his confederatea alert
ed to flee.
Sergeant William Sweeney, the
fourth member of the police squad
virtually single handed shot and
enptured the entire gangster crew.
He pursued Genna Into the base
ment of a private residence as thev
made targets of each other, their
revolvera barking and spitting bul
lets at every step. As Genna
reached the basement, one of
Sweeney's bullets dropped him and
he fell through a window.
Spurred by the shooting of his
three rnmpsnlons, Sweeney left
the dying Genna where he fell and
gave chase tn the two other gun
men as they leaped on the running
hoard of s street ear. Signalling
the conductor of tho car. Sergeant
Sweeney lenped aboard, felled one
of the gunmen with a blow of his
fist and the other, bleeding from
a leg wound, surrendered without
further fight.
The fight Is believed bv the po
lice to hsve had a connection with
another shooting earlier In fhe dav

With his death, the police await

contemptuous of the law, prefer to
take vengeance at their own time
and In their own way.
what aeemed to have been a
Genna vengeance party was report
