guests of Mr. R. P. Clarke o-f Galveston,
and took a trip to the jetties on the tug
Seminole. They returned to Beaumont in
the afternoon and took a trip over the
Kflysee. They expeot to return to-night
and go from here to Shreveport.
Mr. Stillwell said to a News reporter
that his people did not yet know whether
they would come to Galveston or to Sabine
Pass, or either of the places; that he was
trying to find out what he wanted to
know, but that he experienced great dif-
ficulty in getting any information of ser-
vice to him about Sabine Pass, and that
no proposition had been made to his road
to come to Sabiiu* Pass. This was a direct
contradiction of information given to a
News reporter some time ago by a gentle-
man intimately acquainted with the busi-
ness of Kountze Bros., which was to the
effect that Kountze Bros, had offered the
Gulf people ample terminal facilities at
Sabine Pass if they, among other things,
would commence work and build part of
their road north from Sabine Pass, and
The News' informant most certainly kn»»w
what he was talking about. Mr. Stillwell
said that the trip of General Manager
Howe of the Houston East and West
Texas, General Manager Yoakum of the
Santa Fe and the Uulf people 'to Texas
City was purely a pleasure jaunt, and that
it had no bearing on traffic matters. He
said that both of these roads had hauled
freight for his line, and would continue to
do so, so they had a good time and got
better acquainted. There is certainly no
question that they got better acquainted.
It could not be otherwise. Mr. Stillwell
said that General Manager lvlrby of the
Kaysee was in Kansas City recently, lie
made Mr. Kirby a promise to go over the
Kaysee t'he first time he came down here,
and he was going to do so. That was all,
just so.
Now, another member of the party told
The News reporter that they thought
very favorably of Galveston, and' that they
could get in for $1150,000. This was the best
offer yet received. He thought they might
go there.
THE RATE TROUBLE.
Mr. J. B. Denison, commissioner of the
Galveston freight bureau, returned yester-
day morning from St. Louis, where he
has been in attendance upon the executive
board of the Southern traffic association.
The board adjourned Monday night, and
will meet again next Monday in St. Louis.
Mr. L. J. Polk, general freight agent of
the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe, will be
home this morning, but will return to St.
Lou-is to be present at the 'Monday meet-
ing. The meeting adjourned- from last
Saturday over Sunday to Monday, in order
to allow Mr. L. S. Thorne, vice president
and general manager of the Texas and
Pacific, an opportunity of attending the
meeting. Mr. Thorne did not put In an
appearance, however, so the meeting ad-
journed, but not until the Texas and Pa-
cific had given notice that the rate it
had announced to go into effect—the Hous-
ton rate to Dallas and northern common
point territory—would be suspended until
after the meeting m-xt Monday.
It is anticipated that a compromise will
be effected. The Atchison system is just
now being reorganized and is not a bit
anxious for a rate war. Rather than that
a rate war should be inaugurated, which
would demoralize things generally, those
who wink the other eye and say little in-
timate that the Houston-Galveston rate
will go up. The Gould lines are not at all
averse to a little excitement just now; In
fact that 1s just What the young man
crossing the ocean for a vacation tour in
the old country would like. In an inter-
view given as he was stepping on board,
he boomed Gould stock to the skies.
While Houston and Galveston rates are
based on water transportation, there is
really no water transportation lines. To
raise the Houston-Galveston rate would
invite water competition, and unquestion-
ably a line of boats would be put on, run-
ning from this port to St. Louis and other
Mississippi river points.
As an example of the effect of water
rates, a short time ago the rate on wire
and nails from the east to Denver was
$1.02. From the same point to San Fran-
cisco it was as low as 30 and 40 cents, and
now is 50 cents. The difference is due to
the water competition.
At any rate t'he matter will rest until
next Monday.
ANOTHER ROAD FOR BELTON.
Belton, Bell Co., Tex., May 7.—The mass
meeting held-tihls afternoon to consider the
feasibility of building a railroad from here
to McGregor was the most enthusiastic
railroad meeting ever held in Belton. The
court house was crowded and every person
present seemed to be taking an active in-
terest in the enterprise. Stirring speeches
were made by Messrs. W. S. Holman, Geo.
W. Tyler, I). E. Patterson, George C. Pen-
dleton, X. B. Saunders, J. Z. Miller, A. M.
Monteith and B. F. Lee. The speakers
were enthused with their subject, and the
audience was In full sympathy with the
speakers. After the speeches the subscrip-
tion list was opened in the meeting, and
$11,000 subscribed in half an hour. A com-
mittee consisting of ten of the leading
business men of the town was appointed
to solicit further subscriptions and take
such steps as may be necessary to pro-
mote the interest of the enterprise. From
the enthusiasm manifested at the meeting,
as well as on the streets, it is believed
that $50,000 or more will be subscribed
to this enterprise within the next few days.
Belton recognizes the importance of this
road, and is determined to build it.
Belton, Bell Co., Tex., May 7.—At the
meeting of the board of trade last night
the building of the railroad from here to
McGregor was very favorably discussed
and the meeting for this afternoon talked
up. Without an exception the members
of the board of trade favor the move and
will all work for it. The prospect now
seems to be excellent for the road.
IN FAVOR OF HUNTINGTON.
New York, May 7.—Judge Brown of the
United States circuit court handed down
his opinion to-day denying the application
of United States District Attorney Mac-
Farlane for the removal of C. P. Hunting-
ton to California under an indictment re-
cently found against him for violating the
interstate commerce act of 1887 in issuing
a free pass to one Frank M. Stone in Cali-
fornia. The motion was opposed by Cou-
dert Bros, and Maxwell Evarts and Hunt-
ington's lawyers.
TARIFF AMENDMENT.
Austin, Tex., May 7.—The railroad com- |
mission issued the following this evening:
In approval of application No. 24, submit-
ted by t'he International and Great North-
ern railrold company, it is hereby ordered
that commodity tariff No. 7, issued by this
commission to apply on shipments of com-
mon brick, fire brick and fire clay in car-
loddi, transported between points in Texvs
and effeotive March 6, 1895, 'be amended as
follows: The rates established by excep-
tions 1, 2, 3, 4. o, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 14 shall be
adopted as Ui4 rates from Harris burg, La-
COAL FROM THE LUNGS.
Several Tons of It Breathed Out in a Life-
Time.
We breathe oxygen in. and coal out. Ex-
periments show that eight ouuees troy of
solid carbon are given off by a pair of
human lungs every 21 hours. That would
bo 61 L- tons in a life of 75 years. What
would that amount of carbon be*worth in
the form of dian.ond. A diamond is pure
carbon.
The prke of diamonds concerns very
few people, but the condition of the lungs
is a matter of supreme importance in this
season of changing weather. Unless the
lungs be strong they can not expel the
carbon. A coll attacking them directly
weakens them.
Any depression, though It seems to af-
fect only one organ, must be overcome by
bracing th«- whole body. For this pur-
pose the doctors prescribe stimulants.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky is highly
prized by the medical profession, because
it rouses the latent energy of the body,
creates a keen appetite, and is invigorat-
ing and nerve-soothing, if the use of it
were foliowe<l by an Injurious reaction,
the doctors would not commend ii. The
fact is. that Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky
stimulates the organs to do their work
properly, so that all ground gained is
Hen -e, it is a standard medicine; a
household remedy of proven value. It is
especially useful* in the spring to fight
those obstinate eoMs that so often develop
into pneumonia and bronchitis.

A COMMITTEE FROM TEMPLE.
Mr. W. D. Cox, Mr. A. F. Bentley, Mr.
John A. Cole, Mayor L. R. Wade and Mr.
J. E. Moore of Temple were in Galveston
yesterday conferring with Vice President
and General Manager Yoakum of the Gulf,
Colorado and Santa Fe making final ar-
rangements for the contemplated improve-
ments in their thriving young city. Some
three months ago a few public spirited citi-
zens began negotiations for additional im-
provements. They held mass meetings,
raised money, purchased forty acres of land
and donated the same to the Santa Fe In
consideration that they make certain im-
provements, among them a new depot and
increased shop facilities. These matters
were closed yesterday by the above named
gentlemen, who were appointed for that
purpose by the citizens of Temple.

en passenger, obtained a judgment against

railway company for $32^0. He sued for $lu,-
000.

avenue for several years, is In a cheerful
mood to-day. His good friends, the yard
men. came to his aid. Years ago he was
the victim of an accident and lost one of
his legs, and to this good day moved about
with a peg leg. Not so now, however, they
having presented him with a handsome
Imported article that bears him around as
in his younger days.
WACO, PALESTINE AND LOUISIANA.
Waco, Tex., May 7.—Mr. W. B. Johnson
of Palestine is here in conference with
Waco citizens on the proposed Waco, Pal-
estine and Louisiana railroad. No conclus-
ion was reached to-day. The conference

HOUSTON PERSONALS.
Houston, Tex., May 7.—Mr. William Mur-
ray, general passenger agent of the Illinois
Central, left for Galveston to-day.
Mr. Arthur De Armes, traveling passen-
ger agent for the Baltimore and Ohio
Southwestern, went to Galveston this
morning.
Mr. A. J. Whitehead, traveling passenger
agent of the Big Four, returned to Dallas

John Quill, formerly of this city, but now
pulling the throttle for the Santa Fe out of
Gainesville north and south, is here on a

LOCAL PERSONALS.
Mr. W. H. Able left his cards about town

ASSASSINATION OF BINDSEIL.
Blanco, Tex., May 6.—William Bindseil
was assassinated by an unknown person
last Friday. He was plowing in his field
when the assassin shot him from behind a
tree. He only lived about fifteen minutes.
He was buried Sunday near his home in
Comal county.
BODIES RECOVERED.
Denton, Tex., May 7.—The bodies of Mr.
and Mrs. Peter Harmonson and Miss Tay-
lor, an account of whose drowning in Den-
ton creek has heretofore appeared in The
News, have been found.
A TRUE STORY.
Last month I cleared, after paying all ex-
penses, $235.38; the month before $186.80 and
have at the same time attended to my reg-
ular business. I believe anyone, anywhere,
can do as well, as 1 have not a particularly
good location and not much experience.
When you have an article that every fam-
ily wants dt is very easy selling it. It
seems strange that a good, cheap dish
washer was never before placed on the
market. With the Perfection, which sells
for $5, you c#n wash and dry the dishes
for a family in -two minutes, without put-
ting the hands in water. As soon as peo-
ple see the washer work, they want one,
and that is why so much money can be
made so quickly. For full particulars ad-
dress The Perfection Mfg. Co., Station, O.,
Englewood, 111. I feel convinced that any
lady or gentleman, in any location, can
make $5 to $10 a day, as every family will
very soon have a dish washer. Try it and
publish your experience for the benefit of
others. ALICE O.
