Huntsville, Tex, June 3.-As Sc
ouel to the killing several days ago
Of George Cabiness, a negro, an al

Sheriff T. e. King and the King
family, six more negroes were shot
to death Saturday and their cabin
burned near Dodge, ten miles from

The negroes, it is alleged, had plot

by numbering the King family, their
plot being exposed by a seventh ne
