I told him my constituents expected.

respondence that any nation has ever
received; but tell your constituents
that, if I cannot get what I want by

legislation.'"

REVENGE FOR DEATH OF WHITES
Two Others Hurried Away for Safety
Both Sides Armed and Ex

Houston, Tex., Juno 23. Nine ne

of a mob In the vicinity of Hemphill, U
Sabine count. Today bath races se
cured arms and the tension Is sueb to
night that a raee clash appears Immi
nent. The lnehlng fallowed the killing
of two white men by negroes. Two
weeks ago Hugh Dean and several
ether white men visited a negro ebureh
and sehoolbouse, where a daneo was In
progress, presumably In quest of
liquor, it being the custom of some of
tliu negroes to sell whisky during tbo
progress of such affairs. During tb
evening Dean was killed and six ne
groes were bold for the killing.
At the preliminary examination evi
dence tending to show that tbo plot
wa planned at the dance to kill Dean
wa produced. Saturday last Aaron
Johnsen, a prominent farmer, was a
saswinated while seated at the dining;
table with bis wife and child, the bul
let being fired through a window. For
this crime Perry Price, a negro, was
arrested, and, It is stated, confessed,
implicating Itobcrt Wright, a relative
of one of the negroes held for Dean 'a
murder. Price declared be was offered
5 to kill Johnson.
Then followed the forming of a mob
last night, tbo overpowering of tb-s
Jailer at Hemphill, and the lynching of
the six negroes held for the murder of
Dean. Five were banged to the same
tree, wbilo another attempted to escape
and was shot to death.
"Later In the night William McCoy,
another negro, was shot and killed
while standing at the gate of the John
son borne, and this morning the bodies
of two more negroes were found In tbo
creek bottom. Wright, the negro who
confessed to the killing of Johnson, and
tbe man Implicated were taken to Beau
mont for safekeeping under guard of
the military company of St. Augustine.
Sabine county is situated in the most
remote part of the eastern section of
tbe state, with sparse railroad and tele
