Disorder at Okmulgee Fol- lows Killing of Eight Men.
SHERIFF IS SLAIN FIRST

Negro Kills County Official, Assistant
 Police Chief, Five Deputies and .
 Civilian and Then Takes Refuge In House Which Is Burned Over His Head - Ten Wounded In FusiIlads
 From the BuiIdins-Race Riot Was Feared.
 Okmulgee Okla. Nov. 16.-Although race riot is feared shere as the result of the killing of a sheriff, an assistant police chief and five sheriffs deputies by negro who was burned to death, Governor Haskell has declined to send troops. Besides those killed ten persons were wounded.
 The dead are:
 Edgar Robinson, sheriff of Okmulgee county; Henry Klaber, assistant chief of police of Okmulgee; two negroes named Chapman, brothers; James Decker, negro; three unidentified ne- groes.
 The wounded are:
 Steve Grayson, Indian boy, probably fatally beaten; Victor Farr, chief of Sioux, shot through the shoulder; dep uty sheriff, arm broken; seven others slightly wounded.
 A telephone message from Governor Haskell says that he will not order the Muskogee company to Okmulgee unless he receives further information.
 The streets of Okmulgee are pa trolled by armed men.
 The disturbance began at the St. Louis and San Francisco railroad sta tion, where Decker engaged in a fight with an Indian boy, Steve Gray son. and beat him into insensibility with rock
 Decker resisted arrest, drew a re volver and shot the sheriff and the other officer to death.
 Holding tue crowd at bay with re. volver, Decker escaped and took ref uge in nearby house Enraged by the shooting, mob of 300 persons, mostly armed, quickly formed and sur. rounded the house.
 The mob poured volley after volley into the building, Decker all the while returning the fire. Seven persons in the crowd were wounded by Decker's bullets, one fatally. A bullet finally struck Decker, killing him instantly.
 The mob applied the torch to the building. and the negro's body was burned to crisp
 Many citizens have been sworn in AS deputies. and all officers of the county have been called here to ren- der assistance .o v N
 During the past week the district court has been in session at Okmulgee, and there has been wholesale convie- ton of negroes. A protest was made because the white jury convicted the negroes as fast as they came up for trial. A negress was to be tried on Saturday, and Judge Alexander had special jury composed of negroes to try her. She was acquitted. This caused bitter race feeling. |

CHINA ANNExEs MACAO.
Portuguese Colony In the Far East
 Suddenly Taken.

Lisbon. Nov. 16. Dispatches from Macao. China. state that the Chinese have annexed the colony, which is Portuguese territory, and that the sit- uation is most serious.
 The natives refuse to obey the Por. tuguese authorities. and the Chinese troops have seized the customs. Fight ing is momentariy expected.
 The pretext advanced by China for her action in occupying this territory is that when the Japanese steamer Tatsu Maru was captured by the chi- rese two miles of Macao Portugal, in order to avoid the responsibility of intervening, claimed that the seizure was in Chinese waters
 The cabinet decided to dispatch to the scene of the trouble the cruisers Rainha Lora Amelia. Adamastor and Patria and the gunboat Riollma.
