Hancock to Contest.
brbmiam. November 20.—Coun-
ty Judge II. E. Williams has today
listened to the arguments of several
members of this bar for and against
a motion to reject the election te-
turus from four boxes. Serious ir-
regular ties we*e claimed in the fail-
ure to show authority In the elec'ion
judges, and the misspelling of the
names of the two candidates for the
office of county attorney. The name
of Curl SwholZ, republican, was
printed wrong in one or two letters
only. On many of the tickets the
Democratic candidate, C. C. Lockett,
had his na ne spelled with one t, but
his attorneys claimed that he had a
majority ot votes in lightly spelled
tickets Jt'dge Williams decided
that where the sound was the same
the voles would not be sepai ated, but
given to the paity who was inte i led
by the voiets, and he was of the
opinion that his duties were ministe-
rial and n t judicial, and that the
failure to state in the ceiiiHcatts that
the presiding e flicer, appointed by
the county court, relumed to act, and
that the clectois had appointed the
officiating presiding officer on that
account, was almost an iiregu-
laiity ; that no objection or want
of authority appeared on the face
of the returns ; that the presiding of-
ficers weie at least officers :le facto,
and the returning oiHctr, having 110
judicial power, could not, outside of
the r.tains, hear evidence to estab-
lish the lact that some persons had
been appointed presiding otficeis
other than tho.se who acted as such,
with the managets and clerks, made
out and signed the returns.
The decision of tha judge meets
the approval of the- majority of the
best citizens in this com.t\. except
ing Ilaucock paitisans. 1 am in
possession of evidence that Hancock
will contest Jones' election, relying
mos'ly 011 the election returns of
tiiis county.

In a telegram sent from Sherman
lo the Globe Democrat in relation to
the shooting of Mrs McKinney at
Sherman last Monday, the following
language is used.
"This is only another evidence
that women's lives are not sale in
Texas. Nobody believes the infam-
ous and cowatdlv scoundrel who
shot Mrs. Mi Kinney would be hurt
by the Te.vs couits, even if caught."
Who is the in'amous scoundrel in
Sherman who tiius villi lies the peo-
ple of his rcction? Women's lives
not safe in Texas I We mak' the
assertion that nowhere in God's wide
world aie women treated with more
respect and more considetation, even
by the most reckless cow bov", than
in this State. What iLlit has the
•niseiable scribbler to make an asser-
tion which he well '.mows to be an
infamous lie Hud foul slander? What
iiuthniity has he for saying that even
if caught, he would not be hurt by a

london, nov. 21.—A dispatch
from Lord Cianbook, secrttary of
state for India, (it L<>ril Lytton, viie-
toy of India, is a document of the
highest importance. It is a summa-
ry of the papeis which Lord Bua-
consfield in Ins letter t • Lord Law-
rence pioposed should be distributed
belore the end of the month, and is
at once an indictment of the frontier
policy of Mr. Gladstone's adminis-
tration, a defense of the policy of the
present government, a reply to the
anti-war agitation of the Afghan
commissioner. lis promulgation is
equivalent to a formal declaration of
war and the causes thereof.
There is no excitement ill the city
over this morning's news. The pie-
ci.ictsof the stock exchange an.l t e
bank of England are quieter than
usual. Dealings in the house a e
very restricted. Prices are t at her
fir.ner than at yestenlays'u closing,
which is it consequence of the bank
rate of discount. There seems to
still be a lingering impression among
speculators that the Ameer may sub-
mit when he knows that the Biitisll
troops are actually in motion.
A special dispatch to the Times
from Calcutta says: AM the col-

Fatal Accident at Dallas.
Edward Kitritge, a brakeman on
the H. & T. C., had both of his legs
cut off above the knees by the engine
of a train passing over him Thursday
morning about five o'clock near the
depot at Dallas.
His foot caught in a frog while
throwing a switch. This caused him
to fall and drop his lamp, which was
extinguished, The engineer could
not see him and dii not know of the
accident until he heard his groans,
when he at once reversed the engine.
The front wheels had passed over his
legs already, however. The left leg
was cut off near the thigh ami the
right le^ above the knee. He cannot
possibly it-cover.
The unfoitunate man was about
32 years of age and unmarried. His
parents reside in Milwaukee, where
lbs father is a prominent railroad
man.
