Fort Worth, Tex, March 23.-Fol
lowing raid on an alleged gambling
house late Friday, County Attorney
Jeff D. Mclean was shot and killed
and Hamil P. Scott, member of the
raiding party, fatally wounded by
William Thompson, proprietor of the
resort raideG
Half an hour later Thompson was
surrounded in a lumber yard within
a hundred yards of where Scott was
shot down and captured after a des-
perate fight in which Thompson re.
ceived bullet wounds that will prob
ably cause his death within a few
hours
The series of tragedies were of the
most sensational and spectacular
character and were witnessed by hun
dreds of men and women, including
many members of the state legisla-
ture here in attendance on a stock
show. The house raided is located on
Main street near the corner of Sixth,
trict
Mclean Shot in the Neck.
Shortly before five o'clock County
Attorney Mclean, heading party of
deputies, forced an entrance into the
place, placed a number of men under
arrest and loaded furniture van
with tables and other paraphernalia.
The wagon with the cOnfscated furni-
ture had just moved Off when Thomp-
son approached Mclean, who was
standing on the sidewalk, and when
within few feet of the official, fired
one shot, the bullet striking Mclean
in the throat, breaking his neck and
causing almost instant death. AS Nc
Lean fell, Thompson turned and re.:l
west on Sixth street with Scott in
pursuit.
Dodging behind billboard at Sew
enth and TICc!zmcIJon streets,
Thompson ambushed Scott, shooting
the deputy three times in the body.
When Scott fell Thompson stopped
only long enough to discard his
empty pistol for that carried by the
dying deputy and then renewed his
fight.
Desperate Fight with Officers.
BY this time a score Of policemen
and deputy sheriffs, followed by hun
dreds Of excited men and boys, were
in pursuit of Thompson, who found
temporary refuge in a lumber shed
lust across the street from the
Touraiae hotel, the most fashionable
hostelry in the city. Here he was To-
Gated by Patrolmen Bell and Lloyd
Thompson, by this time thoroughly
desperate and with the cry Of lynch
him" ringing in his ears, was. ready
for a fight to the death.
Bell and Lloyd opened fire on
Thompson, which the latter returned
The officers wounded Thompson in
three places and he is probably fatal
ly injured. As soon as Thompson had
