SMALL RIOT IN ELPASO
One Policeman and a Colored Sol
der Were, Killed.
a Corporal Was Locked Up for
Drunkenness the Day BefOre-The
Battle the Outcome OF an At
tempted Rescue.

FL Paso, Tex, Feb. 1s.-At 5 o'clock
Saturday morning mob of Negro
soldiers from Fort Bliss attacked the
city police station with the object of
releasing two of their comrades cho
had been arrested Friday.
During the fight Police officer Newt
Stewart and one Negro soldier were
killed, and il is believed that another
OF the soldiers is wounded.
Friday afternoon the police locked
upa corporal from the fort for getting
drunk and threatening TO chase the
police force out of the city, and Fri
day night another drunken soldier
was arrested. Comrades of the prison
ers took the news to the post. \ res
cue party, armed with ksag-Jorgen-
sens, was organized, and just before
daylight a descent was made on the
city.
Two of the soldiers, rifles in hand,
entered the building and demanded of
Officer Stewart. the only man on duty,
the surrender of their comrades.
Stewart ordered the men out of the
station. and they opened fire on him.
Jailer Richard Blacker, aroused by the
shots. sprang out of bed, grabbed his
pistol and started into the Office. One
of the soldiers shot at him. Blacker
fired and the Negro staggered and ran
out, followed by his companion, and
the entire squad left on run.
About 20 shots in all were fired.
Stewart was shot twice through the
lungs and died at : o'clock. \ trail
of blood leading from the station was
followed. and half a block away the
dead body of a Negro. shot through
the breast, was found. The dead man
elutched his gun in his hands. Anoth-
er rifle and traces Of blood were also
found, which indicates that another
% the Negroes was wounded.
The company stationed at Fort
Bliss is Company +. 25th infantry.
Posses are looking for the marauders,
though at the post il is claimed that
the only missing soldiers are the dead
man and the two prisoners in the po-
lice station.

Washington, Feb. 1o.-The house
will enter upon the consideration OF
the Porto Rican tariff bill and the de
bate upon IL promises to be memora-
bic in the history of this congress.
The vital question az issue in the bill
Is whether that clause of the consti-
tuition providing for equality OF inn
most and excise taxes throughout
United States territory extends over
the island of Porto Rico and in this
Is involved perhaps the determination
of the future status and government
of our new accession.
The republicans in framing the bin
have proceeded upon the theory that
the constitution and its immunities
do not eNtSpd over Porto Rico. The
democrats are solidly arrayed upon
the other side. and in committee they
were Joined by one republican, Mr.
Mccall. of Massachusetts,. Among
the other republicans who take thc
same view Is Mr.. Littlefiold, of Maine
who succeeded the late Mr.. Dingley
lie won his spurs in the debate upon
the Roberts case, and Is already con.
sidered one of the most powerful de
baters in the house. The support OF
these two prominent republicans has
raised some hopes in the opposition
that they may be able to defeat the
bill. although this hardly seems prob
able at this writing.
Both sides are preparing for a roynI
struggle Mr.. Payne, the floor Leader
OF the majority, will open in supper
