BAsTRoP, August GA tragedy took
place about o'clock yesterday evening,six
miles above Bastrop, on the Morris extern
sion, in which Mace Morris, aged Is years,
son of N. A, Morris, tax collector OF Bas-
trop county, shot and instantly killed John
Evan, scolored. The deceased was a trouble
some negro and has spent most OF the
last four years in Jail or working out fines
and at the time of his death was hired by
Mr.. Morris from the county, Morris be-
coming responsible to the county for the
amount of his fine. The cause of the cir
cumstance of the killing are as follows;
Yesterday, at noon, Mace Morris and
John Evans had an alteration
bout dinner; Morris was the
only white person on the place; Evans
being a powerful man, weighing about 3
hounds, and Morris being only q boy,
Evans abused Morris with language unfit
to publish, and finally chased him out OF
the yard with a knife, telling him he would
cut his throat, and remarking that he would
kill boy rs quick as man; Evans went to
the field and did not return until night;
Phillips, colored, was the only witness who
saw the shooting, and swore in substance
that Morris ate no Supper except drinking
glass of milk; leaving the table
he went out of the room; while
witness and deceased were at supper, Nor
ris again appeared at the door with a shot
gun Witness says if any words passed he
did not hear them; says that Morris fired
from the doors, sixteen buckshot taking eff
Iect in the breast OF deceased; witness could
not swear whether deceased was advancing
towards Morris or not, but saw demonstra-
tions made by deceased Just before the
shooting; the position in which the body
was lying would indicate that deceased was
on his feet; an open knife was found on his
person. After the fatal shot Morris gave the
gun up to witness, and in short
time started for his fathers house in Bas-
trop and surrendered to the officers soon
after reaching Bastrop. This morning JUS
lice Johns summoned Messrs. G. K. Hayne,
A.. A. Erhard. NJ. +. Anderson, W. l..
Gibson, John s. Wilson and w. A. Good
nah jury of inquest, and, accompanied
by the county attorney to represent the
state and j. p. Fowler and d. ID. Orgain,
for the defendant, left for the scene OF the
killing. The following was the verdict of
the jury at the coroner's inquest: 1--WE,
the jury, find deceased, John Evans, came
to his death from q gun.shot wound
fired from q gun in the hands of
N. A. Morris, in Bastrop, Texas, on the Sth
of August, 1882" Justice Johns liked his
bond at 81 900, which was promptly given.
N. A. Morris has the reputation OF being
one of the quietest and most peaceable of
boys. This is the first trouble of his life,
and there is much sympathy for him.

GALVESTON, August 9.-The second day

first was a Junior four-oared race between

John E. Mix, post trader at Fort Brown,
located about mile from the yellow lever
stricken city of Brownsville, is here, on his
way to Galveston. In conversation with
reporter he stated that the fever eli her
reached Matamoras from Tampico by land,
from Tuxpan or Bagdad by water. Tam
pico is 900 miles south of Matamoras, o n
| the coast, and the railroad is now DelnS
built into the interior from that point.
| Vessels have piled constantly between that
point and Tuxpan, bringing up large guam
| Titles of fruit. 1t is we'll known that the
! fever has existed at Tuxpan, and no precau-
tions were taken to prevent its spread; nor
was the place quarantined against either
| by Matamoras or Tampico; neither by any
other Mexican towns above it. Since the
| fever reached Tampico many OF the rail-
readers have fled, most of them coming
up by land to Brownsville, being Ameri-
cans, with the object of getting back to the
! United States Some also came by water.
Until the arrival of the health officer, Dr.
! Swcarinoen, at Browusville there was no
| fixed belief that the fever was Yellow Jack,
and hence it seems, from what Mr.. MIX
saws, that there was no restraint of travel
from the lower coast towns until the fever
had seized firm hold at Matamoras.
Ten deaths at Matamoras in the past
twenty-four hours. At Brownsville Mr..
stellar, editor and proprietor of the OF the
Cosmopolitan, daily newspaper, is down.
Two new cases are reported in the garrison
