MOB LYNCHES
 WHITE FATHER
And Mulatto Son But Spared Life Of Negress Mo-
 ther. Special to Independent.

Charles Malpass, the white fa- ther of the two negroes killed yesterday when Sheriff Preston and Deputy Sheriff Steil of Pu- laski county were killed by ne groes at Dumas, was lynched by a mob in that town early this morning. The old man had been desperately wounded in the battle with the officers. His fifteen year old son, a mulatto, was also lynched but the life of the negress mother was spared. Barney Steil Brought Home
 Little Rock, Sept. 27.-The remains of Barney Steil, deputy sheriff of Pulaski county, killed while trying to assist Sheriff W. D. Preston of Desha county in arresting some negroes near Du- mas Tuesday, will be brought home today, Sheriff B. L. Rob- erts and other officers from Lit tie Rock accompanying them back to the city. These officers went to Dumas Tuesday evening after the news of the killing reached Little Rock.
 Barney Steil was in Dumas with his wife, at the bedside of Mrs. Steil's mother. Sheriff w. D. Preston Tuesday started to the Arkansas river bottoms with a posse to arrest Lee and Tom Malpass, for some minor crime. Barney Steil was in Du mas and was asked to join the party, willingly accepting the invitation.
 In the two automobiles were Sheriff Preston and Deputies Courtney of Arkansas City, Ike Bankston and w. A. Nuckolls of Walnut Lake, and Mid Robin son of Dumas. When the party arrived at the farm being work ed by the Malpass negroes, Sher- if Preston and the party alight- ed and Preston advised the oth- CT officers to surround the house and permit him to go to the front and endeavor to make the arrest without trouble. This the other officers refused to agree to and it was finally set tied that they should go up the back of the house and Sheriff Preston then go to the front.
 This plan was followed and three waited in the rear, while Barney Steil followed Sheriff Preston. As Preston entered the house he was shot down by one of the negroes in the back of the house. Steil ran into the house and was also shot, the &bullet entering his head, but as he fell he killed one of the Mall ass boys.
