HE SHOOTS THREE
Col. Mulhall Uses His Revolver on Employee

The Indianapolis Sun, 20 Jun 1904


ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 20-
Col. Zach Mulhall, Oklahoma's cattle king, the father of Lucille Mulhall, the champion steer roper of the world, and the friend of President Roosevelt and of former President Grover Cleveland, shot three men at the wild west show on the pike in the world's fair grounds, Saturday night.

The shooting was the culmination of a quarrel between Mulhall and three cowboys of the wild west show. Mulhall is held under arrest without bail. Six cowboys are held in jail as witnesses.

The trouble grew out of the amount of food which was being furnished to horses in the Cummings wild west show, in which Mulhall has an interest.

The victims of Mulhalls' revolver are being cared for at the Emergency hospital. They are Ernest Morgan, 18, shot in the stomach; John Murrah, shot in stomach; Frank Reed, shot in neck and left arm.
