[specIaI Express TeIearam.l ]


Abilene, Tex, May 27.--After one
hours desperate attempt to break
down the doors, or demolsh the Jail
early this morning, mob armed with
shotouns and revoIvers fired into the
cell Of Tom Barnett, shooting him
dead.
7arneet was convicted recently Of
numbering Alex Sears, who was a
prominent cattleman Of West Texas.
The guards refused admission or to
surrender Barnett to the mob at
o'clock. Before the authorities could
cope with the mob Barnett had been
killed.
The mob proceeded about the work
quietly with little excitement. The
citizens feared that the authorities
would not punish Barnett.
Through the discovery Of Jailer
Peevy's body this morning il was
learned that the mob gained entrance
to the Jail proper where Peevy des-
perateiy resisted. The mob fell upon
Pevy and pounded him insensible. Fall
ing to pry open the cell door, the mob
compelled Barnett to stand facing the
mob. As he arose, sixteen shots were
fired, all taking effect. Barnett had
been sentenced to serve ninety-nine
years, but the case has been appealed.
There were forty men in the mob.
