Southern railway will erect a depot at

five miles south of this point, and near
the Louisiana line.
For a long time Ravanna has been
battling for a depot, but her requests
were unheeded. Finally the state leg-
islature was appealed to, which result-
ed in the Arkansas lawmakers passing
a special bill at the last sesslgn of the
legislature, requiring the company to
erect the depot In question, and pro-
viding that every day thereafter, till
such time as a depot was established,
should constitute a separate offence,
subject to a fine not to exceed *606

The railway continued to Ignore the
demand both of the citizens and the
legislature. Finally criminal proceed-
ings were instituted and the railway
company concluded to come to terms.

Authorising Distriet Judges to.
Name Committees. x
Austin, April 12.—(Special.)—F. 8.
Bell, state revenue agent, returned to-
day from Crockett, where he aided ths
finance committce appointed by the
district Judge in going over the ac-
counts of the several county officers.
He will go to Hill county next week
for the same purpose. Mr. BMI says
that the law which authorises district
judges to appoint finance committees
at the terma of district court to ex-
amine into the accounts and finances
of the counties is being more generally
observed now than ever before. In some
districts these committees are appoint-
ed at every term of court and where
the examining work is faithfully and
properly conducted much good results.
He believes that if the law was more
generally observed in the matter of ap-
printing these committees that the !r-
iegularties in the accounts which fre-
quently result from the carelessness of
county officers would seldom occur.

Briefly, this was the occasion of Mr.

during March. In an interview at that
time Mr. Yoakum said he was visiting
Mexico simply for pleasure and recrea-
tion. However. Information has been
received hsrs from City of Msxico to
ths effect that a syndicate of immense
capital is now being organised in City
of Mexico with Mr. Yoakum as one
of the leading spirits, if not the ad-
visory member of the organization.
This syndicate will construct a road
from Halina Cruz, the Pacific terminus
of the Tehauntepec National, north-
ward along the Pacific coast to Man-

Ultimately this road will, if the proj-
ect is a success, be extended northward
to El Paso, there to connect with the

In the construction of these lines the

Mr. Swayne was released.

rented this with a Winchester, and an
aggravated assault case was filed
against him.

Denison, Texas, April 12.—(Special.)
Denial is made by Frisco officials that
coal which should have gone to the
Sunset lines has been confiscated. Re-
peated charges are bein'* made by of-
ficials of South Texas lines that such
is the case. Frisco officials state that
during March the Frisco obtained lees
thaw 50 per cent of the coal mined in
Indian Territory tributary to its lines.
The railroads of this section are
sending circulars to the employes tell-
ing them to watch carefully for coal
thieves. The officials are afraid that
persons, roused by the stories of conl
confiscation, will attempt to do like-
wise for their private needs. This, nc.
tlon is based on the attitude the people
took during a strike years ago, when
railrgad coal cars and coal supplies
generally were raided.

About a week ago Mr. Moore sold

price Mr. Moore paid for it recently.
The change is said to have been made

other property by Mr. Moere. When

Such a road •• the ene planned would
be in position to handle an immense
tonnage from existing and new ports
on the Pacific boundary of Mexico. ’
The air line distance irom Halina
Crus to Manzanillo is approximately
1,100 miles. Much of the new line
would be easy construction, though
near the southern terminus there would
by reason of mountainous territory be
some expensive building
Building this line would prove a vast
undertaking in Mexico and would result
in some phenomenal development in
that portion of Mexico.

H. Acton of West Virginia and K
W. Martin of Bridgeport were in the
city yesterday in conference with Rock
Island officials regarding the present
situation at Bridgeport. The gentle-
men are the proprietors of the Bridge-
port mines, which have beep operated
on an independent scale heretofore. The
mine workers az the mines in question
havel refused to sign up unless they
receive the union wage scale. Messrs.
Aston and Martin have advised Rock
Island officials that they will grant
the union scale, thereby. Inducing the
workers to sign up, if the railroad will
pay for the coal now on hand the orig-
inal price plus the expenditure incurred
during the several days’ strike. This
would mean an advance of about 16
cents per ton.
The railroad ofGlelals have refused
to pay the suim asked. In view of this
fact, It is not known whether Messrs.
Aston and Martin will grant the union
scale and start the mince or whether
they will hold out longer. The rail-
road company has agreed to take all
coal which the mine has on hand at
the price paid in the poet. This agree-
ment has, so far, not met the appro-
held today at Trinity church. Hemp-
hill street and Pennsylvania avenue.

wise Mr, McCabe would not have made
the trip.
It ha* been known for some time
that th* Wichitn Valley road is now
connirueting a line from Seymour to

Kunsas City, Mexico & Orient road is
building from Sweetwater nortbwerd

the extension will be carried forward
Thia would give the town of Haskill
three important lines, of road and
would make it the greatest railroad

Traveling Pasuenger Agent Balr of
Pennslvahia Lino* Spent Day Here
C. A. Baird, traveling passenger agent
of the Pennsylvania line with San An-
tonio headquarters, was in the city
yesterday. Mr. Baird I* a typical Tex-
an. He resided in the North for a num-
ber of year* and la not a native Texan,
but. during hl* four year*’ residence
in this, state he has become “horghghiy
inoculated with the spirit of the Im-
perial commonwealth and now devotes
his energies to a rigir Indorsement of
the Lone Star state He commented on
the breezy aspect of all true Texans and
their manner of whooping things up and
yelling prolifically. Mr. Baird seems to
think that a man who live* in Texaa and
does not yell and yell loudly is tongue-
tied and cannot talk. He says that a
man cannot live long in this state with-
out yelling. They yell from pure de-
light and uncontrollable joy. Mr.
Bulrd states that he IVkes Texas people
and that he want* to remain here until
he is transferred to duty, with a com-
pany greater than th* Pennsylvania.
In commenting on railroad construc-
tion in the Southwest he said that a
great deal of building is going on in
that section. He announce* that the
Santa Fe will shortly close the gap be-
tween fltockland and Cuero which will
give a dlrct line from San Antonio
to the Gulf and will penetrate the ex-
tensive rice fields lying around the
coast town of Lavaca. Mr. Baird left
last night for a short trip through the
Panhandle.
