"This business" happened on a Federal reservation--does the state of
Texas have any jurisdiction at all with regard to events that take
place on military bases?



Apparently other entities do as the civilian police were the ones that
entered the area and shot the murderer.

The civilian police in this instance were sworn Federal officers in the
employ of the Department of Defense. It wasn't a case of a town cop rushing
onto the base.
