Lon Garner Fires Fatal Shot
TIM T -VT -TTT
i w nne iN esrro v as over
powering Hini.
Charles Willis, a negro 41 years of
age and the father of six children, was
dm oti oiTnncf intr!-?jntlv killed at 6
oclock p. m., Sunday in a scuffle with
policeman Lon Garner, who was at
tempting to arrest mm.
Garner was given a preliminary hear
fng before justice E. H. Watson Mon
day morning and bound over to the
grand jury in the sum of $500 on a
charge of murder, the sureties on his
bond' being Volney M. Brown, Frank
Simmons, Frank Carr and Robert Lee.
Had Been Drinking Tequila.
Policemen Garner and Finley were
summoned to the corner of Sixth and El
Paso streets Sunday evening, it being
ronnrti that . nesrro there had beaten
j his wife, driven her and their children
j from the house, broken the china, fur
niture and bedding and thrown all out
j into the streeet The man had been
drinking tequila, according to evidence
of a bottle found in his pocket after the
killing.
"Wild Bullet Breaks Horse's Leg-.
When Garner attempted to arrest "Wil
lis, the negro tried to take the officers
gun away from him, but Garner shot
twice, one bullet entering the man's
right arm, and passing through it,
striking Garner's horse in the leg and
breaking It, which necessitated the kill
ing of the animal later. After injuring
the horse the bullet hit Leonardo Rue
da, of 713 South Oregon street, in the
right leg, but as it was almost spent,
did not injure him badly, simply cut
ting the skin. The negro's clothes were
ignited and Garner's left wrist was
burned by the powder.
Preliminary Hearing:.
Garner testifying Monday said:
"Sunday afternoon about 6:10, a tele
phone call was sent to the police sta
tion to send an officer to Sixth and El
Paso streets, where a negro was beat
ing his wife. Policeman Finley and I
answered the call.
"On Sixth street, a little off El Paso
street, the man had been whipping his
wife and everyth-ng from the house
was thrown out into the street, the
children wer squawling and the man's
wife was crying. The negro was stand
ing outside with Buck Taylor and an
other man whom I did not know. Fin
ley and I arrested him and took him to
the corner Finley going to telephone
for a ..patrol when wc had reached the
corner of Sixth and El Paso streets.
The prisoner was cursing and swear
ing and I told him there was no use of
that; he had better be quiet. He acted
ar though he wanted to jump on mo
all the time and of a sudden said: 'I
would just as soon die now as anytime;
you have got to kill me.' He made a
jump for my, six shooter and I grabbed
for it at the same time. We had quite a
round and he slung me around; he
weighed 190 pounds, I guess. In the
wrangle, he came near getting my gun.
I shot him once, the bullet going
through his right arm. but he never
turned loose until I shot the second
time. I was down on my knees then and
we were fighting for the revolver. I
shot him the second time in the left
side. The bullet came out at the back
i ear the right shoulder. He was not
quite dead when we put him In the pa
trol wagon, but died on the way to the
police station and from there we took
-'o the undertaker."
Restaurant Man 'Testifies.
Buck Taylor, of 817 South El Paso
street, testified: "I 'was standing in
front of my restaurant door at the
above address when I sa-sv a crowd
rushing toward Sixth street. I then
dropped over that way. 1 saw a negro
come out of a house with a stove, -while
scattered around the street was china,
bed clothing and other articles. He
tried to get the bedstead out of the
door -nhen his wife called 'Charles,
please don't make a fool of yourself any
more.' He then used some very Tile lan
guage. Another man went into the
hous-e and he threw him out. I caught
hold of the negro and at that time two
officers caine up. I told one of the
officers ibo best thing to do was to
take the rogro to the police station.
OneVf the officers stopped to talk to
the negro's wife, asking her If she
would make a complaint against him
and sne said pbc would not.
"Just then I called attention of the
officer to the ff-t that the negro had
the other officet overpowered. Then
the first shot v":i.s fired, the policeman's
horse went up in the air and reared
and I went toward him. the other po
liceman running with me. Before -we
got to him the second shot was fired and
the negro fell back about 20 feet from
the policeman, who was on his knees.
"I was about 50 feet away from Gar
ner when the first shot was fired and
Y(. nthAr officer was right by mv side.
It all occurred in seven or eight mln-.
utes. The n":rn had been nriniang,
but I do not think he was so drunk he
did not know what he was doing. He
was stubborn but the officers treated
him kindly. I judge he -weighed about
220 pounds and' was about six feet
high."
Another Witness.
B. Baumgartner testified: "I saw the
killing. I was in my surrey .driving
along El Paso street. "We were dring
down the street and saw the officer
with the negro. We turned and were
coming back and had almost stopped at
the time the negro was saying some
thing to someone in the crowd. He
seemed to have something in his hand
that looked like letters and put them in
his pocket and said with an oath: 'I
don't care If I die now.' He made a
lunge toward the officer, who reached
for his gun. I heard one shot fired.
The negro was getting the best of the
officer when I heard the second shot
fired. The negro ran across the street
and fell. The negro, and Garner re
minded me of the pictures of the Johnson-Burns
fight. The negro was much
larger than Garrer. There was a scuffle
going on and evidently the negro had
hold of the officer when the shots were
fired because the fire was not above
the waist line. At the time the first
shot -n as fired Garner was bent back
j as if being pushed over backward by
the negro.
"The negro was above Garner at the
time the second shot was fired."
Negro From New Mexico.

age. came to El Paso last October from
Hachita. N M.. and was employed at

AS OFFICE HERE
Urges Insurance Men to
Help Get New Pump
House and Cut the
Rate.
EI Paso now thas a branch of the statq
fire insurance actuary's office. The
first day of its existence resulted in
A. H. Kodes, the actuary in charge,
pointing out to El Paso insurance men
how tine key rate might easily be reduced
and the amount of insurance paid by
El Pasoans cut greatly. Accompanied
iry E- A. Morrell, who will assist him,
Mr. Rodes arrived here Sunday, and
Monday morning met with the fire in
surance agents at the chamber of coni
nierce. Stating that he had opened of
fices in the Citj- Xational bank building
the new El Paso actuary explained to
the insurance men his duties as the rep
resentative of C. B. Eoulet, the state
actuary, whose headquarters axe in Dal
las. His first suggestion was that the
ipumping station at tho mesa hvater
plant be replaced 'by a fireproof struc
ture at once. By replacing this build
ing with a fireproof one of brick or
concrete (not concrete blocks) he show
ed how the key rate would be reduced
from 50 to 40 cents and the important
effect this would have on the amount to
be paid in insurance here. 'This would
put El Paso in the first class of risks,
the 1 to 40 class of key rates. This
class of rates fixes exposures at 20 feet
nrhile the 41 to SO class of key rates
fixes exposures at 30 feet. That is the
class El Paso is in at the present time
and as 30 feet is an extensive exposure,
the rates will be correspondinrfy higher
in specific cases- The Herald building
is an example of this. The building
runs back to the St. Regis and takes a
higher rate because the adjoining build
ing conies within the 30 feet exposure
clause of the 41 to 80 rate. By reduc
ing the key rate to 40 cents, the lower
classification as to exposure would ap
ply and the amount of reduction in in
surance paid would be very great. There
is no Teason why Ei Paso should have a
key rate of 50 cents. Yon might club
in and help out the water company by
building a fireproof pumping ptoitdon
and still make money 'by getting the
insurance rate reduced. Instead of pay
ing it to the insurance companies ycu
would he pajing it to the water com
pany, thereby getting better facilities
for fire fighting which a fireproof pump
ing station would afford."
Mr. Rodes made a number of other
suggestions as to .the best wav of re
ducing the key rate, dealing with the
charges which have made in it asrainst
the -water company, the lack of an ade
quate fire alarm system, sufficient fire
hydrants and a shortage, of paid men.
In figurine up the passible reduction
which might he made in the kev rate of
these charges were removrd. the total
was run up to more thnn SO .-n-;.
But Mr. Rodes emphasized the fact
that by replacing the pumping station
an immediate change could be effected
wmen wouia nave a great benerit for
the insured of El Paso.
The new rating book, which is expect
ed to reach here Tuesdav. will contain
197 pages and will contain the specific
rates on every risk in El Paso except
the dwellings not exposed by mercan
tile risks.
These rate will result in a complete
change in the present ratings which
have applied in the past and it will be
necessary for the agents to notify each
assured person of the changes. As a
general proposition Mr. Rodes stated
Monday that a great -man)' of these
change would be in the natur? of ad
ditional premiums, although some would
be reductions in the present rate.
During the actuary's talk a number
of insurance rmen. including R. C. Mat
thews and "V. H. Austin, expressed
themselves as being in favor of making
the improvement to the mesa water
plant immediately.

TAFT DOESN'T WANT

Points Out That It Might Result in

Washington. D. C-, May 9. President j
Taft today snt a special message to
the house of representatives to tell why
he considers a congressional investiga
tion of the sugar ifrauds in iiie customs

"It is." he said, "because a. congres

embarrass (the executive department in
