THE DAY AT HOUSTON,
The Harris Delegation Discovered
Not to Be Solid for
Culberson.
THE MORRIS CASE DECIDED.
The County Commissioners—Cotton Picking
to Be Indulged in as a Diversion.
Action of the City Fathers.
Houston, Tex., Aug, 13.—There is consid-
erable stir to-day on the Inside of the Har-
rLs county delegation to the state demo-
cratic convention that sprung up since yes-
terday. Most of the members, when the
delegates were named by the convention,
took it for granted or regarded it as a Cul-
berson delegation from end to end. To-
day some of the leaders are mustering
about in a spirited manner because they
have learned that there are some Lanham
and one or two Reagan men in it, whereas
they expected that it would be solid for
Culberson. Several of the delega'ter, all
Culberson men, thought it and said they
would not be able to get off, but to-day
they are being hunted up and told that
ithey must go, as it is feared that the solid-
ity will be broken. What the plan is for
making it solid for Culberson does not ap-
pear, but they want it that way. Those
who are working hardest to round up the
stragglers seem certain that Hon. Chas.
Stewart will nominate Lanham before the
convention. They scorn any suggestion of
doubt about it. Saturday it was thought
that a good many of the delegates would
remain at home, but they were rustled up
pretty lively before they left this evening.
REOBIViER REFUSE©.
Late this evening Judige Brashear in the
case of Landes, Frary et al. vs. R. B.
(Morris et al., rendered a decision denying
the motion of plaintiffs for the appointment
of a receiver; i«i other words, perpetuating
it he validity of the deed o»f trust made by
the defendant, Roibert (Morris. It will be
remembered that the case occupied tfhe
attention cif -the district court for over
itwo weeks.
The effect of tlhiis judgment is to allow
Ben 'P. Morris to co-Mect all claims in (fa-
vor oif the firm and to permit George A.
(Race, trustee -in charge of the (goods, to
continue sales and make payments. Prayer
for injunction is denied. Judge Braahear's
opinion has 'been awaited with more than
ordinary interest, especially by the com-
mercial peopHe of 'tlhds section, and is being
generally discussed thiis evening.
Prominent attorneys say there is no
question, but that the opinion is good law.

to each company. Though there are two
or three in the race for it, knowing ones

the commandant o'f the Austin troop, will
be elected. IHe has a high standing in the
regiment.

OAIR SERVICE MEETING.
Houston, Tex., A.ug. 13.—The regular quar-
terly meeting of the Texan car service as-
sociation was held in 'the rooms of t<he
association here this morning, President
Charles B. Peck presiding. Twenty-three
roads in the association were represented,
though, as a good many of the general
officers of those roads are away on summer
outings, most of them were represented
by proxies.
The proceedings of the session consisted
mostly of routine matters, except that in
view of the recent decision of the railroad
commission, President Peck was instructed
to enforce the rules of the association
against the Galveston jetty contractors,
and, If after one more earnest effort, they
still refuse to settle the demurrage due,
then to institute legal proceedings at once
to recover same.
President Peck informed The News re-
porter that the car movement for July,
notwithstanding the recent strike, was 3000
in excess of that of June, and that the
Indications were that the movement in
August would show :t greater inertase over
July than July did over June, from which
he reasoned that an Increase In business
was already perceptible.
(Colonel Peck also stated that all of the
railroad representatives present leported
t)hat the prospective yield of the cotton
crop on tnelr respective lines was never
better, and that they anticipated an un-
usually lucrative carrying business this fall
and winter.
THE KATY STANDS PAT
Houston, Tex., Aug. 13.-Since the first
notice of the big excursion to Washington
on account of the eighteenth biennial ses
sion of the supreme lodge, Knights

The Missouri, Kansas and Texas seeme

All kinds of rumors have been In the air

'An expert accountant, commenting ol
Atchison affairs, said last night: "I have
seen dt stated that Atchison had no iprodlt

to me that the report could have been
true. I know that all of 'Mr. Little's in-
vestigations have a profit and loss account
for their chief end, and there is 110 better

erally known, but it is a fact, that uUr.

SANTA FE DOWL'E DAILY.
While it (has not bpen authoritatively set-
tled as yet that th# Gulf, Colorado and
Santa (Fe will inaugurate a double daily
passenger service,, with the advent of the
new tiime card nf*t Sunday, there is every
probability that tihe double daily service
will be put on. The officials of the road are
now figuring on a time table embracing
doulble dally passenger trains, but General
Manager Yoakum has not yet announced
officially that the increased service will
go into effeot. Mr. Yoakum is now absent
from U^, city and Mr. Keenan, the gen-
eral passenger agent, was asked by a
News man to make an authoritative state-
ment yesterday. While Mr. Kee.nan would
not affirm as a fact the report, he left the
reporter under the impression that such
a move was be'ng seriously considered and
tlhat the 'Probabilities were that next Sun-
day the double daily service would be in-
augurated on the 'Santa Fe.
A PRiOMlISHNTG RAILWAY MOTOR.
A forthcoming consular report will de-
scribe a new street railway gas motor of
the Luhrig model, which is now success-
fully operating in Dresden and in England.
A model is being constructed in England
to send for exhibition and trial in the
United States next October. The cost of
operating is 2 cents a mile per car loaded-
using 25 feet of gas—with 28 passengers,
making the legal limit speed of eight miles
a,n hour, which cost is lower than either
electricity, cable or horse power, the latter,
comparatively, being put at 7 cents a mile.
It runs quietly, emitting' neither smoke
nor steam. No machinery is in sight, every-
thing is boxed in, and easily under control
of the motorman. The Initial cost of car
is about the same as horse car with horses,
the reduced cost in care of machinery
compared with horses is considerable. "Its
victory over the English horse car is more
than probab.e." It has marked advantages
in points of economy in cases of irregular
travel.
