Three Negro Murderers rs
Jail at Amite City, La, and
Hanged and Shot.
AN Ex-ARIzONA MINING MAN MURDERED
An Attempt at Train Robbery Near
Sterling, Kas., Frustr ated Through
a Fortunate Circumstance
Last Night,

New Orleans, Jan. 2O.--John Johnston
was burned at stake in front of tn,
Cotton residence, near Amite City. at
O'Clock this morning. Arch. Joiner was
hanged. The mob also lynched Gus
Williams, accused of numbering his wife
The three men executed were colored.
Johnston and Joiner, according to con
1 fession, we're guilty of the murder Of five
members of the Cotton family, near here
sometime ago. The trio of murderers
were taken from jail at Amite City to-
gether last night by mob. Williams
was hanged to tree in front of Little
Zion church, not far from Amite City.
The mob then took Johnston and Joiner
to the scene of their crime to lynch them.
Johnston and Joiner were brought to
Amite City from near New Orleans yes
terday to plead on their indictments and
after hearing were remanded without bail.
During the day citizens called at the jail
and Johnston made his confession. His
story of the slaughter of the family was
peculiarly brutal. He said he had always
liked the Cotton family and would not
have harmed them had he not been bull.
led. He said that he armed himself with
an axe, not to hurt any of the people in
the house, but to prevent their escaping,
as he had been told to watch the door.
The murder, Johnston said, was planned
by Bud Mcknight, suitor of a girl
named Miller whose mother, Mrs. Cotton,
whipped her for allowing McKnight's at.
tentions. This was the only motive he
knew fol the crime.
A dispatch TO the Times Democrat
from Amite City this morning says: The
crowd first decided to burn Johnston at a
stake, but finally concluded to hang him.
Both negroes we're therefore hanged and
shots fred into their bodies.

THE FUTURE OUTLOOK.

THE FUTURE OUTLOOK.
The outlook for the future of the cattle
interests of New Mexico seems full OF
promise. The western ranges, from
which the maturing and feeding states
largely draw their supplies, do not carry
more than half the cattle they did ten
years ago and as our reputation and the
foreign demand has greatly increased, the
supply of merchantable beef is so much
reduced that there is an actual shortage
now. The marketing of COWS has been
carried to such an extent that the source
of production is reduced one half,
| through the whole west, from what it was
ten years ago and the length of time nee
essary to produce and lit the ordinary
beef steer for market must compel a
sharp advance in prices all along the line.
Beyond this the overlooking of the
ranges some years ago has cured itself
and young stock are much better grown
and graded now and more desirable to
handle. More attention is being paid to
the Introduction of thoroughbred bulls
and cattlemen who do not look sharply
after their interests in this direction will
have cause to regret their inaction. New
Mexico as breeding country equals il
not excels any part of this Union. Az an
example of what may be done in this line
quote from an account of sales of cattle
marketed by the La Cueva ranch COM
pany of More county in January and
February, 1896, now before me, which will
show results that anyone by care and at
tention can attain.

them in the Kansas City yards that same

This sale was noticed in the Drovers'
Telegram of that date as having been the
best lot of yearling feeders sold in that
year, aud their owners expect better re-
suits from similar lot soon to be sent
forward. They we're high grade Galloway
yearlings, raised in 10000 acre pasture
(practically an open range) and were put
on the alfalfa fields 10 the fall, after the
crops we're taken off, and were never
housed or fed grain.
Cattle are going through the winter so
far in good shape and the season is 30 far
advanced shat it is not at all likely that
any very severe weather will overtake them
and the brisk demand that has already
started up is very encouraging. Very re-
spectfully, J. A. La Rue,

GOOD RESULTS OF IMPROVED BREEDING
Some Interesting Figures from Official
Records on the Cattle Output of

Six Years.

To the Editor of the New Mexican.
La, Vegas, N. NJ, Jan. 1s, '97.-In re-
ply to your inquiry for facts and figures
relating to the cattle interests of New
Mexico submit the following:
Previous to the passage of the act of
February "A, 1891, no record of cattle
shipped or driven to market from the
territory of New Mexico had been kept.
The provisions of that act required that
this should be done. All inspectors of
the board were furnished with blanks on
cattle inspected and released to be taken
out OF New Mexico. These reports show
the date of the inspection, number, age
and sex of cattle, where the stock origi-
mated, destination, by whom owned,
handled and shipped, postoffice address of
the parties and the marks and brands and
how many there we're of each. These re-
ports are now on file in this Office, accessi-
BILE to any one seeking information of
that nature.
THE ACT OF 1893.
Inc ecG OF 1895 ameDQaIOTy OF tHe aCU
of 1891, further provides for an iuspec.
tion fee, and that the boards should
handle estrays and unclaimed cattle. This
provision has been of great benefit to
oattlemen, saving them many thousand
dollars yearly, which without such au
thority to handle by the sanitary board
woold have been lost to their owners.
The following table will show the num-
Der of cattle shipped and driven to mar
ket out of the territory of New Mexico
from 1891 to the present, as well as the
number slaughtered for consumption
within the territory:
