New York, July 11. One hundred and twenty-five policemen were called out today to control the thousand of negroes that gathered at the Grand Central atatlon to welcome Jack Johnson, heavyweight champion of the world.

Johnson's train from Chicago was nearly an hour late because of the wreck at Newton Hook, N. Y., but that merely gave the opportunity for tho late ones to get Into the crowd and work up enthuHlasm. Before the negro fighter waa on the outskirts of the city, the great black crowd was at wrought up aa If the occasion had been a Claas A revival meeting. Sixteen thousand 'circulars had been distributed by the reception committee In every negro iwHlement and quarter of the greater city. This dodger read: "To every colored man, woman and child In Oreater New York: "Be at the Grand Central station at :30 Monday morning and let us all hake the glad hand of the stalwart athlete, the greatest of the 2Mb century. Come any way you can. Come la vehicles or on foot. Come any way. Only be sure to come. "All be there! The Committee." They alt cam, from the looks of the Grand Central depot. Btyglan darkness would look like, sunlight compared with Flrty-second street today. Every automobile that could be rentad, bought or commandeered by negroes within fifty miles or Broadway, was on band. In the city there are two negro proprietors of taxlcab garages and they stood ready to loan their cars If they couldn't rent them. But they rented them without difficulty. Besides their machines, there were all of the 75 automobiles owned a 1 t rt ny negroea in rw iur. When the blacks began to gather, a fringe of whites formed, and the police had difficulty In keeping Caucasians on the move. There were several small clashes before Johnson arrived, but the culprits were whisked away posthaste.
