A MEXICAN KILLED
B lieved to Be Romero, a Bisbee
 rurderer.

w. E. Houston and H. $. Houston, ters in the vicinity of the San Bernar- dino ranch, arrived in Bisbee late yes terday afternoon and give an account of the killing of a Mexican near Col lege Peak yesterday morning at Il o'clock, says the Review of Tuesday.
 II. S. Houston arrived by stage from Naco about 4 o'clock p. m. and w. E. Houston came in on the train last evening. Both men tell about the same story. which In the mainfs to the effect that H. s. Houston had on Monday morning killed a Mexican and that the body was on the way to Bisbee, where it will arrive this morning.
 MT Houston was seen last evening by a Review reporter and told the follow ing story of the affair:
 "Myself and brother. H. S. Houston, and a man named Taylor had been on a roundup in that vicinity and were keeping an eye on Slaughter's pasture, where several head of Mexican cattle had been placed by parties unknown and which we were watching on the request of Mir. Slaughter, when he left for Los Angeles.
 Monday morning we were riding in the vicinity of the big draw, about live miles from the ranch when We saw four men riding toward the pasture My brother said he thought they were Mex ican officials and that he would gallop over to them and see. He left us ant rode ahead and Taylor and myself fol- lowed on behind. When he had gone about four hundred yards from us I saw his rife smoke and his horse fall. We hurried up and he said the outfit had opened fire on him and he had rec ogpized Burt Wayne and a man named Williams.
 "One Mexican was fin the party and the second shot my brother fired he killed him. Several shCts were fired on both sides.
 ''I saw the dead body Of tho Mexican, and from the description of Romero I am satisfied that Is the man killed | My brother saw Romero in the Tomb stone jail and is positive the man killed | s the Mexican murderer and outlaw The body was not taken to Douglas i the nearest point. for the rcason that the Houston brothers and the justice of the peace there are not on good terms.
 The arrival of the dead body will be awaited with a great deal of interest this morning. Several residents of Bisbee will be able to identify Romero
 The rangers were not present wher the shooting occurred, as first reported The men were coming direct from Mex ico when first seen and the incident; leading up to the killing are as stated | above. Romero is an escape from th' Tombstone jail, being under sentence ot death for the murder of barber + Bisbee some months ago.
