Frank Steele, the well-known manager of
the Western Union Telegraph company at El
Paso, shot and fatally wounded Frank Patter-
son, also an operator, the other night. The fight
occurred in the telegraph office and was the
result of a dispute over a wire which refused
to work. Patterson advanced on Steele, striking
him, when the latter rushed to his desk, and
securing a revolver, used it with deadly effect.
Steele shot at Patterson twice — one bullet going
in the left shoulder and one in the mouth, and
the last shot will in all probability prove fatal.
Steele was immediately arrested and held under
$5,000 bond to await the result of the wounded
man’s injuries.
