SUDDEN DEATH.
A WELL KNOWN VEGETABLE DEAL
Err STRICKEN DOWN AND
QUICKLY DIES.
A Post Mortem Discloses Evidence of
Poison and Some Developments
are Looked for.

About ] o'clock last afternoon Mr..
VIM. Taylor, a vegetable and chicken
dealer, died very suddenly at the resi-
dence OF Mr.. j. Cavanaugh, who lives
near the intersection of Brazos and
Nineteenth streets.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Taylor was
in usual health and started
out on his rounds unusually cheer.
full and full OF energy.
He went his rounds delivering vege-
tables to his customers until he
reached Mrs. McCollum's, where he
complained of being very sick, and
his appearance was such that he was
offered glass of wine which he
drank.
He then started off, but growing
worse he drove directly to Mr.. Cava-
naugh's where he boarded, reaching
there about II.
When he reached there he was toe
unwell to even get out of his wagon
and he called for assistance and
was aided in getting out of the wagon
and into the house by Mr.. and Mrs.
Cavanaugh, who at once sent for DR..
Bragg.
To question asked by Mr.. Cava
naugb Taylor said he believed he had
been poisoned, but he grew so rapidly
worse that he could make no explana-
ton d di,' in about thirty minutes.
DR.. Bragg reached him about thirty
minuI es before death and too late
render any assistance.
The suspicious circumstances at
tending the death warranted the Off
GERS in having postmortem and
Drs. Graves, Church and Frank Nc
Laughlin held one and found signs Of
congestion in all the organs.
Mr.. Taylor had beer living in Aus
tin about two years and it is said was
a very Industrious man. He came to
Austin from Bolton where he has a
daughter.
Detectives are investigating the
case and there may be further devel-
opments.

THE sAcs AND FOXES.
The Tribe Selling Of Their Lands and Max
ing Good Trade.


ing Good Trade.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 10.-A special
to the Republic from the Sacs and Fox
agency says the Cherokee commits
sioners spent all of today arranging
the final details in connection with
the deal made Saturday for the ces-
sion of all lands belonging to the Sac
and Fox Indians. 1t is believed that
tomorrow will end the work, and thai
all the papers will be ready for deliv-
cry to the secretary of the interior.
All that remains undone is for the
Indians to determine upon plan for
the payment of the money realized
from the sale.
Some want the whole amount paid
per capita at once while others favor
holding in trust by the government
of sufficient amount to guarantee
on the annuity payment every year
The Indians are in high glee over the
prospects of securing big payment
soon and seem to realize they have
the best OF the deal.
The richest one in the tribe is N. G.
Jones who becomes owner of $4,000
acres of land besides receiv
ing $4,000 in money. Other
Indians become rich in proportion, it
depending OH the number belonging
to the family.
The success of the commission in
securing the cession OF the Iowa and
Sac and Fox land has placed new life
into the movements of the boomers.
Trains of wagons loaded with tents
and other necessaries were discovered
last evening near Sapulpa, all making
for the Iowa country to await the
opening which is expected at an early
date.

GEN..R. L. WALKER.
The Old Soldier Gathered Home to His
Fathers.

A telegram was received in this city
last evening announcing the death Of
Gen. r. L. Walker at his home in.
Virginia yesterday morning at 6 AS.
Gen. Walker was among the ablest
of artillery officers i'll the Confederate
army, and on more than one occasion
distinguished himself upon the field on
battle. He was type of the true
Southern gentleman and soldier, and
as such won for himself the esteem f.
all with whom he was thrown in con
tact. After the war he engaged i'm
civil engineering and when
Texas was looking around for
suitable and efficient person
to supervise the construction OF her
magnificent capitol, Gen. Walker
was highly commended and received
the appointment. For four years he
personally watched the massive and
grand pile go up and when his labors
were ended and the magnificent
structure was turned over to the
State, the capitol board, composed
of the States highest officials, unani-
mously adopted resolution OF
thanks to him for his fidelity, sterling
honesty and efficiency in the discharge
of his duty. In the private walks OF
life Gen. Walker was modest and un-
assuming and his kindly disposition
and generous nature we're proverbial.
During his residence in Aus
tin he made scores of
friends who will deplore his
death, and THE STATESMAN joins
them in extending their sinceresv
sympathies to his bereaved family in
this, their hour of deep affliction.

physique these men are slight and only
poorly developed; but the fact of their
carrying on their head from sixty to

tive days, their only food being each
day a little manioc root, an ear or two
of maize, or a handful Of peanuts, pro-

eight or nine years old are frequently
met carrying loads of twenty-five
pounds weight.
"Throughout the cataract reglon the
general accepted money currency is

pieces of six yards each. The European
cost of the cloth paid to these natives
for transporting n load to Stanley Pool
from Matadi, including %rations, amounts
at the present day to So for u load Of
