niTLESITES DENY STORIES
Berlin. Germany still suffered
Tuesday from election tension. In
seven cities there were outbreaks of
political violence. Meanwhile spokes
men for both the government and
for Adolf Hitler's national socialist
rarty denied reports puDiiantu
abroad that negotiations were under

fatalities. The outbreaks came on
the Lctls of a warning by Franz
r.racht, deputy federal commission
er in the state of Trussia, that sev

to protect Hitlerites against com

Coroner's Jury Investigating Deaths,
Finds Shcotirg in Washing
ton Riot Self Defense.
Washington. The shooting to
death of two veterans by police in
last week's rioting was held by p.
coroner's jury to have been in self
defense. Across the Potomac river
from the dingy morgue where the
inquest was held, one of the dead,
William liushka of Chicago, had
been riven military honors in burial
a few hour; before in the Arlington
national cemetery. Eric Carlson of
Oakland, Calif., the second victim
of
iice guns as a group of veter-
ans a ivar.ee 1 menacingly toward po
lice near the capitol last Thurday,
succumbed to his wour.ds early Tues
day morning.
Privates George Shinault and
Miles Zr.amtnacck were the police
exonciated of culpability for the
shootings. The firing, it was testi
fied, was opened o::ly after member:;
of the bonus army started a second
time at hurling bricks and ether de
bris at the police. It was but a fhort
time afterward that PrsJdent Iloovt-r
ordered troops from Fort Myr into
the city, the cavalry and inf.ir.try
which routed the bonu3 seekers
lu'ickly with tear gas and torch.
"It is our opinion," ruled the cor
oner's jury, "that Officer Shinault
'used said gun in defense of his own
life and in the performance of his
duties."
The verdict of Znamenacek, who
suffered a concussion of the brain
from being attacked, was the same.
He had taken the stand voluntarily
to relate how he shot Carlson dur
ing the figLt, but Shinault did not
testify. Their chief, Pclham D. Glass
ford, had testified that Shinault shot
Hushka under circumstances "per
fectly justifiable;" that a man In
civilian ciotnes Grew a gun during
the struggle and that two shots were
fired before Shinault pulled his own
pistol.
Just before the coroner's verdict.
District Attorney Leo A. Rover or
dered the release of fourteen of the
fifteen men arrested as radicals in
the roundup following the bonus
army's xoedus. II ruled these were
lawfully in the country, but all were
escorted to the District of Columbia
