THE RANDALL KILLING.
THE SHOOTER rs IN JAIL AND HAS
EMPLOYED COUNSEL.
Both Parties Were Drinking and Deceased
Used Abusive Language to Randall.
The Widow and six Little Daught-
ers Are Almost Hesrtbroken.

Special TO The Statesman.
DALLAS, Dec. 27.-E. s. Randall
died at lilo this evening. He died Q
victim of the hip pocket movement
and widow is crushed beneath her
great load of woe, and six sweet little
girls are orphans tonight. Not only
orphans but they are almost penniless,
for their father died poor. Two years
ago he was worth from $4,000 to $26,-
900, but business reverses swept II
away. An insurance policy for $4,000
expired few days ago and the man
who is cold clay tonight failed to re-
new 1t.
When the body was stripped to
prepare for burial 1t was ascertained
that he was shot three times. Major
Randle's pistol contains three empty
chambers. The fret ball entered al
most the center of the chest and
lodged just beneath the skin on the
right side. The second struck him
squarely on the top of the right
shoulder and ranged downward. The
third entered the back.
His dying statement to the officers
and his friends was, that he had been
murdered like dog. The killing has
aroused great deal Of indignation,
for Randall was popular and
did not have an enemy In the
town. His poor wife, who was
at Paris when he was shot, started for
home this morning. Her train was
four hours late and when che reached
home her husband was corpse. She
IL heartbroken over the terrible trag-
edy and the terrible fate of her hus-
band.

T., s. Randall was drunk and heaped
viotent abuse upon him. That he
called him q thief, q liar, and q -
- -, and then came the shooting.
He has retained Messrs. Seth Shep-
ard, w. l.. Crawford and n. e. Cow
art to defend him. The accused Is re-
puted to be worth $500, 900 and will be
able to put up the sinews Of ar for .
first-class defence as will be seen by
his selections already made.

MEXICO.
sHooK1Na nRuTALITY.


CITY OF MEXICO, Dec 27.-The au-
thors of a. fiendish scheme of which
the first indication was discovered the
other day when the body of boy 8
years old was found with 2l7 bites
and burns, have been found. They
are the uncle of the child and wife.
The father of the boy was transpor-
ted some years ago to Yucatan, the
mother remaining In Mexicoin charge
of the children. She died some months
ago and the orphans were left In
charge of an uncle who cruelty NAL
treated them, chastising them
with the utmost barbarity and almost
starving them to death. On being ar
rested he confessed to having punish
en- the child in question but denies
having done so with the intention Of
killing him. Three orphans lett In
his charge are not forthcoming and he
is supposed to have made away with
them also. The man exhonorates his
wife of share In the child's maltreat-
ment but says at his direction she
carried the corpse away frJm the
house and flung 1t into vacant lot
where 1t was found by the police.
UNCoNoUERED YAoUIs.
CHIHUAHUA, Mex, Dec. GA
government military courier brought
news last evening of another outrage
liz the state of Sonora, of which the
warning Indians are perpetrators.
The trouble occurred In the town OF
Belen, at the foot of one OF the ranges
In the Sierra Marie mountains near
the mouth of Yaqui river. The town
of Belen is settled principally with
Yaquis and their allies, the Mayo In
dians. 1t Is within what Ia claimed
by the Yaquis as their domain and
the efforts of the Mexican government
to colonize the rich lands OF the valley
have proved futile. BY arrangement
with the Indians o few Spanish ira
ders took up their residence In Belen
few years ago and have been carry
ing on profitable business. Shortly
after there was q terrible massacre OF
the Tomochic Indians by Mexican
troops in The western part OF the state
of Chihuahua. About two months
ago the Mexican government consid-
cred that 1t was now good time
In which to bring the trouble
some Yaquis into submission
and compel the heavy land owners o.
the Yaqui river to pay into the gener
al treasury the taxes which the gov
ernment as never been able to col.
lect. Detachments of government
troops, accompanied by several tax
agents went to different parts OF the
Yaqui country but no successful en-
trance was made until about ten days
ago, when force of soldiers sailed
up the Yaqui river and made land
ing near Belen. When the Indians
of that town heard of the coming ol
the troops they prepared for desper
ate resistance. The Yaquis and Ma
yos marched out and attacked tht
government troops, who were com
pelled to retreat and leave the coun
try. The Indians of the town ther
went on the warpath In earnest ano
Immediately drove the Spanish trad
ers out with their families, burning
their residences and other property
1t Is generally conceded in military
circles here that the government viii
be unable to force the Yaqui indiana
into subsection. 1t will take 2OO,0O'
Mexican troops, there being 25,OOO va
quis under control.
