About fifteen of the defendants in
the case against the cattlemen who
invaded Johnson county last sum
mer with the avowed purpose of
exterminating the stock thieves, or
"rustlers," have reporthe for trial.
The indictmentsare in the case for
arson murder. A council has been
held by the leading cattlemen and
their attorneys. It is reported that
they came to the conclusion that it
would be best to put the case over
until the May term. A motion for
a postponment will be made and
will in all likehood be allowed.
It is doubtful if any of the Texas
who were hired to accompany the
invading party will appear for
trial. Ot the twenty-two engaged
origiually four are under the sod.
All died violently. The last to go
was "Kid" Tucker, who killed one
of the men in the raid. The opin
ion is fast gaining ground that the
cattlemen will never be brought to
trial. All the uetetiuaiits are
wealthy, while Johnson county,
which must stand ' the expense of
the prosecution, is practically bank
nipt.
