TRAGEDY AT TEXARKANA
A Thirteen Year-Old Boy Kills a Man
with Whom His Father is Fighting.
The Father Jailed on Charge Of Robbery
The Boy Released on $500 Bond
Cause of the Trouble

Special to the Gazette.
TExARKANA, TEX. April 18.-Another
bloody tragedy was enacted here to-day,
the scene being Sweatt's beer garden,
which is near the Cotton Belt depot and
adjacent to the business portion OF the
city. 1t appears that a young man
named ). w. Stewart came here from
Paris to engage in selling ice cream
freeZers, a new invention. 1t is alleged
that on his arrival here last night he was
inveigled into game of cards at the beer
saloon or garden, kept by b. K. Sweat.
Stewart said he was forced into the
game and robbed OF several dollars. He
did not know the names of the parties en-
gagged in the game, but identified the
proprietor of the saloon as one of the
leaders, and swore out a warrant chsrg-
ing him with robbery. Sweat was ar
rested, and his examination set for 2
clock this evening, but Stewart again
visited the saloon and the subject of the
robbery was renewed. The testimony
adduoed at the inquest show that angry
words arose between Stewart and Sweat,
and finally they clInched and rolled on
the ground. After scuffling while, the
evidence is, they regained their upright
position and stood confronting each
other, and while in that position Kenneth,
the thirteen-year- son of Sweat, adj
vanced within a few feet of Stewart
and shot him. The shooting was
done with large oaliber Smith
s. Wesson pistol, and was aimed as near
the heart as the boy knew how. Stewart,
after receiving the shot, walked few
steps and without speaking, fell dead.
Deceased was q robust young man of
genteel appearance, and seemed to be
well informed. His friends have not
been heard from, and his remains have
not been removed. Keneth Sweat, the
boy who did the killing, is said to be
about thirteen years old, but seems much
younger as he appeared in court in knee
pants, barefoots and barelegged. After
the inquest he was admitted to bail in
the sum of 5000, and his father was re-
manded 20 jail TO await his examination
on the charge of robbery, which Is set
for Monday next.

tions in an admirable manner during the
services at the opera house on Wednes-
day. Your correspondent met him at
the banquet last night and learned from
him that he had been coming to Texas
for many years. When he first came to
this state, there was railroad running
from Victoria to Lavaca. On one occa-
sion after stage ride from San Antonio
to Lavaca, he found the train on the
track, but the engine, a deplorable af-
fair, with wooden piston rods, badly out
of fix, q chronic condition with it. After
some inquiry he found that 1t would
probably take all day and part of the
night to make the thirty miles to Vic
toria. Re-engaging the conveyance that
had carried him and his trunks from San
Antonio, he started for Victoria, where
he arrived in time for dinner. The train
did not put in an appearance until
o. clock next morning. There has evil
IDENTITY been some improvement in rail-
roads in Texas since then.

am in favor of the creation of rail-
road commission to look after and see
that all railroad measures are properly
enforced and their provisions carried out; ;
said commission to be composed of three
competent men, to-wit:
One practical business man who fully
understands the wants and needs of the
farmer and stockmen; one man thor
oughly posted in railroad matters, if pos
sible to find such man, it will be well
for him TO have some actual experience
in railroad matters, and one eminent at
torney. L think the salaries of the mem
bers should be sufficient to induce COM
petent men to seek places on the COM
mission. 1 believe the commissioners
should be elected by the people. OF
course, If the next legislature should
create such commission. the first term
would have TO be filed by ap-
pointment. l think a commission of
three sufficient, as it would only take
one more to make majority
If we had commission of five, than it
would if we only had three, and as 8
matter of course, three will be much
ohea per to the state than five.

road companies can now charge under
existing law for all classes of freight per
