Locked Up in Guardhouse.
Ten soldiers were arrested by the mill
tary authorities and locked up i'm the
post guardhouse pending their trial on
charges of manslaughter and enga ging in
riot. A preliminary investigation salts
fed the military authorities that the eyi-
dence did not justify the charge OF mul
der in the case of any of the men.
Several weeks later but before the
conclusion OF the trials. the Governor OF
Texas made demand on the officer in
command for the surrender of the soldier
prisoners to the civil AUTHORITIES for trial
on the charge of murder. The demand
was refused and the military T. ia OF the
accused was proceeded with. The Wa.
