MILLER, THE DALLAS MURDERER?

Denver, Colo., July 28.—Passengers
arriving on trains from the east report wide
destraction through Kansas and Nebraska to
all kinds of crops on account of hot winds.
Superintendent Campbell of the Burlington
road says figures can’t express the damaee.
Two weeks ago it was e»timared by experts that
Nebraska had but 400,COO,000 bushels of corn. It
will now be necessary to ship corn into many
counties of Nebraska in order for farmers to
live until another season.
Hundreds of square miles of the finest look-
ing corn hangs dry and lifeless over an extent
of territory as large as the state of Pennsylvania
or New York. Reports from along the lines of
the Union Pacific, Burlington, Rock Island and
Missouri Pacific and Santa Fe are all of the
same tenor. The only hope of the farmers is
that bounteous rains may start another graft
before too late in the s°a^on.
Travelers report that the highways leading
eastward through Nebraska and Kansas are al-
ready thronged with disheartened settlers, who
have abandoned their homes and are hurrying
toward Iowa and. Missouri for relief from the
almost unbearable heat.
a similar scene has not been witnessed since
1873, when the hot winds - Imost depopulated
western Kansas. The year following came the
grasshopper plague from which it required
Kansas ten years to recover. Railroad men
look on the advent of the hot winds in Kansas
and Nebraska this year as vast'y more damag-
ing to railroad interests than the recent strike.
Cattlemen will have a serious time finding
fattening ground for their stock. A new source
of supply must be found.
There is great danger of fires along railway
tracks and the roads will be required to take
extra precautions to prevent extensive prairie
fires, as the dry grass will be a constant source
of danger for months to come.

In addition to the steamer Kow Sueg, which

ing used to transport Chinese troops, all on
board being drowned, the steamer Tooman, also
being used as a transport, has been sunk by a
Japanese warship.

night en route to Washington with a request on
the part of the Hawaiian queen that President
Cleveland shall not recognize the republican
government.
Bathing and Eishting.
The bathing season is now at its
height and the tired interior citizen will
miss a treat if he |ets the summer slip
by without a dip in Galveston's famous
surf. As has heretofore been demon-
strated in The Tribune, Galveston’s
beach is the finest, the longest and the
safest in the world. This is attested by
all travelers who have visited the prin-
cipal watering pieces on both continents.
The water is never too rough, though al-
ways rolling enough for lively sport.
The beach is so smooth that there is no
danger or discomfort, though the strong
swimmer can find all the depth and ex-
tent of water that he wants.
The yachting season, too, is on now,
and Galveston’s great placid bay is alive
with pleasure craft, racing before the
perpetual breeze and carrying fishing
parties to the choice spots where the red-
fish run, the trout leap and tha great

out that cotton can walk right over it
and never feel it.
But differential or no differentia], Gal-
veston is sure to receive 1,200,000 to
1,500,000 bales of cotton the next season.
Tha figure has gone to more than 1,000,-
0C0 for the closing season, and is sure to
go Ligher for the new crop.
To get these 1,200,000 bales of cotton
out of Galveston will require from 120 to
500 ocean-going ships. The smallest
carry about 2400 bales, the largest 10,000
to 11,000. But many of them will take
away somewhat mixed cargoes, includ-
ing various articles of export, such as
cotton-seed oil cake, hides, wool, lum-
ber, copper, etc., so that the number re-
quired will be nearer the 500 mark than
the 120.
The crop has already begun to move,
and though no cargoes are yet made up,
several ships have been chartered to
arrive about the middle of August and
within 30 days things will begin to liven
up along Galveston’s two and one-half
miles of wharf front, which, during the
busy season, will be lined with traffic.
To tbe Galvestonian, or to the fre-
quenter of sea ports, shipping presents
no charm except for what financial inter-
est one may have in it, but to tbe interior
citizen who is not familiar with such
scenes, the sight of a big ship carrying
more cotton than 3000 two-horse wagons
could haul is something worth stopping
to look at. Indeed, to the interior vis-
itor nothing is more interesting than a
stroll along the wharf front, where these
great steamships, schooners and other
craft lie loading and unloading their
cargoes.
While co'ton shipping will not be in
full blast for some weeks, the port is
right now and at all times full of interest
to the observer. Beyond these great
tramp steamers, so called because they
have no regular runs but ply on demand
among all the ports of the world, the
Mallory steamship line has two or three
s’eamers a week to New York, and these
great floating palaces are interesting to
behold, with their cozy cabins and state-
ly quarters for passengers and their cav-
ernous depths for freight where whole
cottages could be stored if they could be
lifted in through the openings.
been for years and every boat that goes
out takes in from 300 to 500 of the
tempting things.
“I’m not much of a fisherman but I
got my 150 last night, and several trout
that I caught would weigh eight or nine
pounds.”
Mr. Moore stopped and looked at the
reporter. “Old jokj,” said the scribe,
“please go ahead.”
“And then we had ice—ice; well,
plenty of it. Now, you see a trout must
be put on ice. Here’s an illustration:
Get a bite say at 6.43 p. m.; fish landed
at 6 43.29; on ice till 6.44.18; in pan to
6.51.17; in mouth at 6.51.24. Oh, it’s
great. Ask the law about it.” And the
gentleman tilted back in big easy office
chair.
“Look here,” shouted Mr. James
Moore, fisherman, to the reporter, “if
you are bound to print anything about
that trip, just say that the lawyers staid
over to take it, and that they declared
they enjoyed the ‘fry’ better than the
banquet.”
those who miss the opportunity to pull
the line are denying themselves rare
sport.
Mr. James Moore was sitting tilted
back in an easy office chair this morning
with his straw hat pulled way down
over his eyes, when a Tribune reporter
walked into his office and said : “Mr.
Moore, are the fish—”
“There, there. Fish? Well, I was
just imagining I was eating a trout, red-
hot from the pan. Talk about good
things,” interrupted Mr. Moore; “if a
speckled two-pound beauty that is in
your mouth inside of three minutes
from the time he was swimming along
in the cool waters isn’t a good thing I
don’t know what is. And that reminds
me the trip last night was one to he
cherished in memory. Lawyers like
fish, and I took out two or three of the
learned gentlemen who are particular
friends of mine to show them what we
can do in that line down here on the
gulf.”
Mr. Moore ceased speaking and tilted
back in his chair.
“The Tribune would like to know
something about that trip, Mr. Moore,”
ventured the reporter.
“Ona of the most enjoyable I ever
had.” replied the merchant-fisherman,
as the chair came down on its four legs
with a bang. “The yacht is just suited
for the purpose, and I had as guests

in good fishing matters as they are
in dry law subjects, and there was
beer and ice and pickles and a
cook with a frying-pan. Oh, the memo-
ries of those trout linger in my mouth
yet. You see, we were a quiet little
party. It was decided that the man who
caught the first fish should be entitled
to the first pickle, and—er—er—well,

especially anxious to show his skill. The
judge throws a line all right, and—well,

Eight hundred thousand wagon loads
of cotton would be a pretty long string.
But at three bales to the wagon it would
take that number or more to haul the
Texas cotton crop this year if present
indications are realized.
There is a 2,500,000 crop in the boll
and bloom between the Rio Grande and
the Sabine.
These 800,000 wagons would have to
be hauled by two mules or two horses
each, and, of course, each must have a
driver.
If the cotton crop of Texas had to go
to the seaboard in the old fashioned way
it would require 800,000 men and 1,600,-
000 mules or horses.
At the rate of 20 miles a day it would
take them 10 days to move from an aver-
age point of 200 miles in the interior.
If the wagons and teams were strung
, allowing 20 or 25 feet for each,
they would stretch 3000 to 4000 miles.
If they were all to reach Galveston at
the same time it would take them over
300 days to cross the bridge over Galves-
ton bay in single file at the rate of four
miles an hour.
If this army were to start acro-s
Texas it would starve to death. Not the
richest country on earth could support
it on tbe march.
One feed for the mules would require
200,000,000 bushels of oats, at only twro
quarts a head.
A piece of steak only one eighth of a
pound all around for the teamsters
would require 109,000 pounds of beef,
not counting the waste.
To move the crop that way would be
an impossibility, and yet that amount
of energy must be applied.
To move it by rail will require 62,-
500 cars of 40 bales each, or 1562 trains
of 40 cars to the train. Ten trains a day
will require more than about five months
to move the crop, but that is tbe time
taken for the bulk of it to leave first
hands.
Under ordinary circumstances more
than half this cotton will come to Gal-
veston for export. Galveston usually
handles a little more than 50 per cent of
the Texas crop.
If the Houston-Galveston cotton differ-
ential of 8 cents a 100 be abolished, the
receipts will be considerably larger and
the farmer will receive the benefit of the
reduction, for everybody knows that
“the farmer, he pays the freight.” There
is a strong likelihood that tbe commis-
sion, which was put into power for the
benefit of the plain people in general---—, —
and the producer in particular, will tarpon shows his silver scales,
squeeze the wind and water out of that fishing experience related below is
differential and leave it so badly flattened daily occurrence in Galveston bay, and
the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe that
were recently introduced from north
Texas points to Galveston, by running
special trains on Saturdays and making
tickets good to return until the Tuesday
following, have been so well received by
the citizens of the interior that they will
be continued.
Special trains will leave all Gulf,
Colorado and Santa Fe points for Gal-
veston on Saturday, August 4, and on
Saturday, August 11. It was stated at
the passenger department of the com-
pany to-day that it was probable the ex-
cursions would be continued on each
Saturday during the month of August,
but the matter had not been as yet fully
determined upon.
The special excursion train leaving
Galveston departs Monday evening, but
if holders of tickets bo desire they may
remain and take the regular Tuesday
morning train.
About 600 tickets have been sold for
the excursion of to-day and sleepers and
coaches have been added to accommo-
date all. The train will reach this city
early to-morrow morning.
A Good Ad.
The Santa Fe is to-day sending out
the following circular:
Never miss a chance for a good time.
Life is too short, and those fortunate
people from north Texas who took ad-
vantage of the low rate made by the
Santa Fe to Galveston on July21et and
28th, are fully convinced that they had
a good time.
The train was not overcrowded, and
everybody secured comfortable accom-
modation according to their desires.
Inasmuch as there were many who, for
various reasons, were not able to take
advantage of the Santa Fe’s low rates, it
has been decided to give them another
chance, in fact two of them.
On Saturdavs, August 4 and 11, the
Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe will sell
round trip tickets to Galveston from all
ue gm me iiibi. uau. points on its line in Texas, and the high-
“ We sailed down along the north jetty est rate from any point will be $5. Tick-
and gathered in the beauties in great ets will be limited to return leaving
numbers. The fishing is the best it has Galveston on the following Tuesday.
' For the greater accommodation of its
patrons, the Santa Fe will run a special
train, leaving Paris Saturday morning
and Gainesville Saturday evening, carry-
ing coaches, free reclining chair cars and
Pullman sleepers, arriving at Galveston
Sunday morning at 8 30.
Returning, this train will leave Galv-
eston, Monday evening at 6, but those
who desire to take one more dip in
the gulf, may remain until Tuesday
morning for the regular train.
Call on your local agent for particu-
lars as to schedule of the special train.
The Tennessee Meeting Ended and All
Is Quiet-
Nashville, Tenn., July 28.—The trouble
with the mutinous convicts at Tracy City

The fiee miners did not interfere in any way
in the affair. Pete Hamilton, the convict who
was killed yesterday, planned the mutiny, as
well as ne a year ago. When he was shot the
b .ckbone of the mutiny was broken.

LIKE THE SUN
that shines for all, we are presenting brilliant
and shining example;; of cheapness in our
grand aggregation. Here are bargains rare as a
Fourth of July snowstorm. The lightning of
reduction has struck our prices all around,
leaving only fragments of former figures. We
have'no repair shop for fallen prices, but end.
them by closing out the stock at low-tide val-
ues. Low prices are the wheels of trade, and
ours are the lowest of the lowest of the low, so
keeping osr trade brisk. Our store is always
clear from any accumu'ation of unsaleable
remnants that can’t be cheap enough to be
worth buying. Buy what's worth buying at a
low price.
