ANENT MISSING BONDS.
Austin. Tex., June 13.—A. D. Boone,
chief clerk in the mailing department
of the comptroller's office stated today
that he opens every package received
In his department, examines its con-
tents, charges it to the department to
which it belongs and delivers it. Thlc
does not throw any additional light on
the missing package of $50,000 Sher-
man bonds. Continuing, he says that
he opened every package received on
June 2 and no bonds were received.
This is conclusive that the bonds must
have been lost en route to Austin and
will be found In a little while, as no
reason can be assigned for anybody
appropriating them.

Austin, Tex., June 13.—Each member
of the board of education, composed

appointments will be made within the
next 10 or 15 days.

busy when the senator first called. Mr.
Scott did not JhinU he could wait and
hastened out the door and up the walk
toward the mansion proper. He had
not gone far when the president's door-
keeper called after him, saying: "Sen-
ator, the president wishes to see you.
The senator heard but did not heed.
He kept on at the same rapid pace,
merely turning and sending back the
laconic message "Can't stop now."
Senator Scott is a good natured man.
and the president's pre-occupatlon to-
day will probably not prevent the sen-
ator from coming in again when occas-
ion warrants.
No Troops Needed.
San Antonio, Tex., June 13.—A special
from Washington says no troops are
needed from Texas to quell the disturb-
ance at Morencl, Arizona. A miitary
prisoner at Fort Sam Houston attempt-
ed to escape, but halted when a shot
was fired at him.
DINNER PAIL DAY
CAUSED BY STRIKE.
Cooks and Waiters a Problem in
Chicago.
Chicago, June 13.—This is the full
dinner pall day. More men carried
their luncheons to work to-day than
in the history of Chicago, it is said.
News of the cooks' and waiters'
strike and the probable spread to all
the down town restaurants brought
this about. Business men who are de-
pendent upon the lunch counters and
the restaurants for their noonday
luncheon carried their provender In
grips, lunch baskets, wrapped In news-
papers and In every other way.
Fifteen important restaurants were
tied up by strikes at noon to-day. A
general strike affecting every large
eating house in Chicago is threatened.
All efforts to bring about peace con-
ferences failed, and the representative
of the civic federation was refused
admission to the joint board meeting.
Strike committees left the union
headuarters at noon. They marced at
once on the restaurants while they
were filled with noonday patrons.
Lunches were Interrupted, and still th.;
strike calls went on.
Large crowds followed the union
committees, and a portion of the 30U
police held In reserve at central de-
tail, and other nearby stations were
started out to preserve and prevent
disturbances. The union committees
were headed off from entering several
of the restaurants, but managed to
reach the waiters and communicate
with the'kitchens by climbing on ad-
joining roofs and making pre-arranged
signals.
Employes became watchful at the
noon hour and the look out. who
seemed to understand his duties, in
several instances cited the union com
mlttee before it reached the restaurant
marked for a strike.
Peace seems far away as long as
the employers hold out on the "no dis-
crimination'' Interpretation of the
union recognition clause. The union
men say they have never refused ar-
bitration, but that a satisfactory
agreement must first be reached re-
garding the manner of employment
and the wage questions.
Twenty-four hotels are still affected
by the sweeping strike of yesterday,
but the proprietors are offering open
defiance to the unions. Already hun-
unlon workers have been pressed into
service, and more are waiting the
word.
The pickets who surround all the
hotels in swarms are powerless. The
firemen and teamsters have refused to
take sympathetic action wit the
unions Involved In the strike.

Railroad Company Sued for Damages
Done to a Well.
Austin, June 13.—An Interesting suit
was filed yesterday afternoon In the
twenty-sixth district court. It is for
damages in the sum of $29,000 and Is
brought by George Cluck and wife
against the Houston and Texas Cen-
tral railway for damages alleged to
have been done to a well or spring
on the property of the plaintiffs. At a
former trial of this case the court in-
structed the jury to return a verdict
for the plaintiffs for 1 cent. The court
held that while the plaintiffs had been
damaged, the extent of the damage
could not be ascertained and was not
ascertained.
The plaintiffs allege in their petition
that they are the owners of 200 acres of
land on Hrushy creek, twelve miles
southwest of Georgetown, Williamson
county, which Is their homestead. On
Aug. 23, 1901, the defendants, the peti-
tioners aver, appropriated a w°l! or
spring belonging to the plaintiffs, erect-
an engine houTe and coal house and
thereby damaged the spring, which they
claim had a capacity of 100,000 gallons
of pure water daily, and at 5 cents per
barrel, for which they want $18,000 dam-
ages for water used. The plaintiffs
claim $1000 damages to th j- home on [
account of soot and smoke and $10,000
on account of the gross Injustice to
plaintiffs In entering and trespassing I
upon their property.
TO CONSIDER
TEXAS RATES
Important Meeting of Inter-
state Commission to
be Held.
Attorney for the Cattle Raisers'
Association of This
State to be
There.
Fort Worth, Tex., June 13.—Sam H.
Cowan, attorney for the Texas Cattle
Raisers' association, expects to leave
any day for Washington, where he goes
to prepare papers in two important
matters—one is the grain rate case,
the other the Chicago terminal charge
case, both of which will be heard by
the interstate commerce commission,
which will hold sessions in Chicago
June 24, 25 and 26. Attorney Cowan
started for Washington some days
[ ago, but, unfortunately, was Injured
in'the lexas and Pacific collision neat
| Marshall and was forced to return
; home. On tills account the chairman
I of the Interstate commerce commission
! postponed the hearing of the cases
| until such time as Mr. Cowan was able
i to travel. Mr. Cowan was seen by a
reporter at his home, on Hill street,,
yesterday. He said regarding the case.
"There are a great many irregulari-
ties In the grain traffic throughout the
West and Southwest, and the published
rates on grain have never been main-
tained with any considerable length of
time. The favored shippers have en-
joyed low rates frequently when* th*
public was, in many cases, unaware of
the existence of reduced rates or of the
combinations through which the cheap
rates could be obtained. The Investiga-
tion, I presume, has relation In pait
to these Irregularities.
"As to the other matters, the Inter-
state commerce commission will h'ar
at Chicago this month, one is the re-
hearing of the terminal charge case,
being upon complaint of the Texas Cat-
tle Raisers' association and the Chica-
go Live Stock exchange, where in it Is
sought to have the terminal charge at
Chicago abolished on the ground that
it is embraced in the freight rate.
The other case is the submission und
argument of the case of the Chicago
Live Stock exchange against the rail-
roads, Involving the reasonableness of
the freight rate adjustment between
live stock and the product of the live
stock from Missouri river points to
Chicago. The product rate is I8V2 cents
local, and the live stock rate Is 23'/s
cents."

POSTOFFICE CASE
NEARING CRISIS.
Heath May be Requested to De-
fer European Trip.
Washington, June 13.—The postotllce
Investigation Is thought to be ueurmg
a crisis.
Perry S. Heath of Salt Lake City,
Utah, secretary of the nationul Repub-
lican committee, and formerly first
assistant postmaster general, may be
requested to defer for the present his
proposed Ruropean trip. Abner Mo-
Kinley of New York, who is said to
have followed some features of Mr.
Heath's administration quite closely,
may be called on uny moment for In-
formation, If such he has bearing par-
ticularly 011 the Installation of auto-
matic cash registers in the various
postofflees throughout the country.
There are certain details connected
with the Inquiry Into the divisions off
salaries and allowances and free de-
livery that nre puzzling the Inspectors.
Rvidence Is said to be cumulative in
the case of A. W. Machen, until re-
cently superintendent of the free de-
livery system, but now. under indict-
ment on charges of bribery and col-
ulsion In the contract letting.
It 1s understood that the president
was consulted In reference to question-
ing Mr. Heath and Mr. McT*"'iley to
furnish such nid as they could to tho
inspectors and that he thought such
action might be advisable.
WILL PAY YOU TO READ THIS.
Newppaperdom—the exponent of the
National Publishers' Union—has com-
piled from the decisions of tho United
Stales Courts and State Courts tho fol-
lowing laws governing newspaper sub-
scriptions:
1. Subscribers who do not give ex-
press notice to tho contrary are con-
sidered as wishing to renew their sub-
scriptions.
2. If subscribers order tho paper dis-
continued the published may continue
to send it until all arrearages are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take the paper from the postotllce to
which it Is directed they are respon-
sible until they have settled their bills
and ordered it discontinued.
4. If subscribers move to other
places without informing the publish-
er, and the papers are sent to the
former address, they are held respon-
sible.
5. The court* have decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the
olflco or removing and leaving them
uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of
intentional fraud.
fi. If subscribers pay In advance
they are bound to give notice at the
end of the time if they do not wish
to continue taking it, otherwise the
publisher is authorized to send it and
the subscriber is responsible until he
gives the publisher notice and pays
al larrearages.
7. The latest postal laws are such
that newspaper publishers can arrest
anyone for fraud who takes a paper
and refuses to pay .for it. Under the
law the man who lets his subscription
run along for some time unpaid and
then orders It discontinued or orders
the publisher, leaves himself liable to
arrest and fine, the same as for theft.
It will be seen that many disputed
points are disposed of by these de-
cisions, which are certainly only just.
If a subscriber doesn't want to renew
his subscription he must notify the
publisher. The delinquent must pay
up If he wishes to discontinue his sub
scription, otherwise he Is held respon-
sible for it as long as the paper in sent
to him. whether ho takes it from the
postoflice or not.

COMMITTED SUICIDE
BY USING DYNAMITE
Explosion Also Damaged a Pas-

Chattanooga, Tenn., June 13.— Joseph
M. J'ayne, who resides at Rossvllio,
Ga., near Chattanooga, committed sui-
cide on a Central of Georgia train ni'ar
Lifayettr!, Ga., this afternoon about
4:30 o'< lofk In a most unusual manner.
He went Into the toilet rooin and there
exploded a Mirk of dynamite, which
frightfully mangled hH body and blew
out the rear end of the train. There
was no one sitting n ar at the time
and Paine was the only perron on the
train that suffered. Hp l^ft a note say-

EL PASO GUARDING
AGAINST OVERFLOW
River Higher Than It Has Been
tor V a s
El Paso, Tex., June 13.—Every pre-
caution has been taken
against an overflow. The river is high
er than It has been since the (loud of
1S97, and Is still rlsln, but the city is
well protected by levees. Kor ninety
miles above along the stream in New
Mexico the water Is out of Its banks.
At one point the river is three miles
wide.
The Southern Paclflc-Sunset. Route
has inaugurated another decided Inno-
vation for the convenience of tho trav-
eling public, and at Houston a squad
of blue uniformed and red-capped por-
ters will he found at all hours of the
day and night to handle the baggage
of travelers to and from trains free of
charge. The porters know all trains
and on which tracks they stand, and
their use will prevent confusion to
strangers or to ladlos and children,
who heretofore have had to handle
their own baggage, or let It bo done
by hotel porters. The Grand Central
station at Houston Is the first to adopt
this convenience to the public, and
signifies the further use of metropoli-
tan railroad methods in Texas.
