JESUS Renitarias Probably Fa-
taly Injured Early This
Morning When Shot
by Police.
MOB THREATENED THEM
Removed to Hospital Where
Operation Will be Perform
ed to Remove Bullet
From Abdomen.

This morning about two O'clock a
Mexican whose name was given as
jesus Renitarias was shot and prob
ably fatally injured by either officer
Barney Conn or William Lafeber
while they were attempting to pace
him under arrest and mob of Mexi-
cans threatening them.
Renitarias was rushed to the hospi-
tai following the shooting and physi-
clans summoned. 1t was found that
the bullet had entered the lower part
of his abdomen and ranged upward.
His condition was pronounced seri-
Gus and it was announced by the
physicians that an operation was the
only hope Of saving his life.
| The shooting occurred in the C. B
& @. railroad yards at the bunk cars
occupied by the Mexican employees OF
the company. The shooting was acct
dental, the officers having shot at the
ground to frighten the mob. 1t is
thought that the bullet hit rail and
glanced upward.

Lafeber said he did not know how
the Mexican got shot but though that
the bullet glanced upward
Excitement Follows Shooting.
The shooting was followed by an
outpouring of all of the Mexicans in
the bunk cars. They were thoroughly
frightened and offered no more resist
ance to the policemen. They had not
recovered from their excitement this
morning and none of them can talk
intehigently in English and give an
account of the affair.
1t was announced at noon by DR..
Kinnaman who attended him, that an
operation would be performed on
Renitarias this afternoon in the hope
of removing the bullet and saving his
life. The bullet cut path through
the abdomen but hope was expressed
for his recovery If the bullet is re-
moved by the operation.
Ranitarias is twenty eight years old
and is unmarried. His home is in
Monterey, Mexico. He has been here
about six months in the employ of the
Burlington railroad, coming here from
Kansas City.
Bullet May Have Glanced.
