The History of a Texas Murder Made

DALLAS, TEX, June 22.-The mystery Of
the stock yards saloon murder has been
cleared up. Joe Poiser, the cx-cattle thief
convict, who took unto himself the credit of
the killing and who proved by three eye
witnesses that he was entitled thereto, now
admits that Jim Hunnicut did the shooting,
and that he and the witness testified to thai
which they knew to be false When the
grand jury took the matter in hand they
we're more incredulous in regard to wha,
the witness saw than were the
coroner's jury. The former, afte-
examining the eye witnesses and
weighing with their testimony the dying
declaration of Humphrey that Hunnicut
fired the fatal shot knew that Humphreys
statement must be true. So conference
was held with Polser, who came ont aud
said that Hunnicut did the shooting but
that interested parties persuaded him while
he was drunk to assume the responsibility OF
the murder, promising him that he should
be well paid and not be hurt
1t was fact that he and Hum
phreyS had a quarrel, and that the lat.
ter drew chair on him when jim
Hunnicut shot him. At the time of the
shooting there were present says Poiser Ike

FATALLY SHOT.
A singular Accident at the Brooklyn Navy
Yard.


Yard.
BRooKLYN, June 22.-About 6 o'clock
Yesterday morning David E. Carpenter, an
old vatchman who has been employed for
many years at the Navy Yard Brooklyn,
saw big gray cat on the cob-doek Car
penter had been much troubled by nigatly
cat concerts on the dock, so he ran for his
musket, which he always keeps loaded with
buckshot and, taking up position on the
ordnance dock, fred across the inlet
at the gray cat on the cob dock.
As the report of the gun rang out he
heard sharp cry of pain, and saw boy
fall forward in boat which had entered
the inlet unknown to the watchman. There
were two other BOYS in the boat, and in
answer to Carpenters excited calls they
pulled quickly to where the watchman was
standing. The wounded boy, whose breast
was fairly riddled with buckshot, was taken
10 the receiving ship Vermont and later to
the HomeOpatic Hospital on Cumberland
rect. His name is James McGrath, and
is home is at No. lS2 Water street. Early
Yesterday morning, accompanied by John
DOherty, Of No. 53 Little street, and Richard
McGee, he went out in a boat to look for
drift-woOd. After searching about for
some time they pulled into the inlet be-
tween the cob and ordinance docks off the
Navy yard. McGrath stood up in the bow
of the boat and said Boys let us go" The
words had scarcely passed his lips when
the report of gun was heard and he fell
forward exclaiming, I'm shot Carpenter
was so intent on getting a good shot at the
cat that he did not notice the presence of
the boat in the inlet The watchmau after
the shooting went to the York street police
station, and gave himselfup to Capt. Crafts.
Later in the day he was admitted to bail in
$500 by United States Commissioner
Benedict. McGrath's wound will, it is
feared, prove fatal. He made an ane-
mortem statement in the afternoon in which
he exonorated the watchman from all
