Mexican Rebels Attempt As
sault on the Dead Mans
Daughters-One Killed
FALSE REPORT SENT OUT TO
SAVE OTHER AMERICANS
EA&l,er Met Intruders With Shot gun
and Drove Them From Place, but
Was Stabbed by One-Killed one In
Dying Act.

Ell Paso. Sept. 2.-Murdered by
rebel soldiers while protecting his two
daughters was the fate Of Koshai
Stevens, an American settler Of Colona
Pacheco, according to an authentic re-
port received by o. P. Brown, busi-
ness agent here for the Mormon coll
onies in Mexico. 1t was at first re-
ported that Stevens, who was killed
last week, had met his death at the
hands of an America. but this story
was sent, 1t Is said, to avoid trouble
with the rebels who still infest the
American settlement to the south OF
Juarez
Two rebels visited Stevens home
with the apparent intentions Of COM
mitting an outrage on the two young
women of the household. Stevens met
the intruders with shot gun and es-
corted them to the limits Of his prop
erty, an orchard. According to the
story told by his daughters, one Of the
Mexicans drew sword bayonet from
his belt and thrust 1t into the Ameri-
cans body. Stevens fired and fell
dead near the man whom he killed.
The other rebel escaped.
The details Of the case have been in
vestigated by Julius Romely, president
Of the colonies. It is said to be the
fifth murder Of American settlers by
rebels in the district and Romely has
urged that no more families be sent
to the colonies until quiet is restored.
It Is declared that the federal soldiers
strung out between Juarez and Chi
huahua have not left the railway and
that the American colonies are abso-
lutely unprotected.
