A gang of four men, armed with shotguns, stopped four automobile loads of hunters on the southwesternr outskirts of the city and relieved them of a number of shotguns, several rifles, considerable ammunition, hunting vests, flashlights, as well as their cash, aH items of which are usable in the robbery game.

One hunter, Basilo Corba, was hit over the head when he protested loss of his gun. Lieut. Keck of the Metropolitan police and aide to Gen. Crosby, com conducted have demonstrated that missioner of the district, reportea to the commissioners that in his opinion and in the opinion of the assistant superintendent of police and only limited excavation was possible. Request was made the Treasury through the superintendent of police on July 20 that these buildings be evacuated.

The superintendent of police reported that he had conferred with Commander Waters of the bonus army, who objected that he would not move his men Into the open, and insisted that he intended to bold together a number of veterans In the District of Columbia to accomplish the object for which they oad assembled, notwithstanding the adjournment of Congress. and two police inspectors, the sit DEATHS ALBRECHT.

The Veterans Bureau, under authority of Congress, issued transportation to 4344 veterans by railroad and 939 by automobile. Transportation by truck to their homes had been offered by the Secretary of War to all remaining bonus marchers, but was not furnished because the offer was refused.

With Congress gone, no possible excuse existed lor remaining in the city. No one here had authority to grant their demands. Many of the better elements left, but small groups of trouble makers augmented the forces. The army was repeatedly asked to disband and vacate Government property, but refused. It circulated around the city individually and in email groups and even in large bodies, asking or demanding money and supplies.

Many reports have been received that they practically levied tribute on small merchants, and intimidated housewives when their demands were refused. Some of them boarded running-boards of (cars driven by women and were disagreeable and insulting.

On July 23 the Treasury Department served notice on the bonus army occupants of these several areas to vacate.

Doak Carter, one of the leaders of the bonus army, presented a proposal consisting merely of the statement that the veterans were willing to withdraw from the Government areas and retire to some private property which they were permitted to occupy, but that they required tent-age and equipment, and demanded the assistance of the Treasury in procuring such equipment, with a view to their permanent encampment in the city. They requested what the Treasury had no power or authority to grant. This proposal was only a repetition of former statements made by Commander Watery, and nothing was accomplished. On July 26, a further letter waa written by the Treasury to the commissioners of the District, stating that the Treasury planned to begin work in the area between Third and Sixth streets and Pennsylvania and Mis Alhambra Grotto Ladies' Auxiliary.

In their absence, further rioting would haye occurred with further bloodshed among bonus marchers and police, and possibly innocent bystanders. The troops arrived and, with the use of practically no weapons except tear gas, restored order -and cleared the area and put an end to the disturbance. 5 Casualties. Two bonus marchers were killed in the disturbance. They were shot by police in self-defense, not by troops.

A full investigation by a Coroner's jury established that the police shot in necessary self-defense to save themselves from threatened fatal injury. After the troops arrived, no serious injuries to anyone followed. A few of the troops were stoned and slightly injured, and one bonus marcher had his ear cut but no other casualties were suffered after the troops came. Stories published in some quarters that the troops shot or seriously injured bonus marchers are utterly without foundation.

Congress had provided for loans by the Veterans Bureau to those holding bonus certificates to enable them to leave.
