cuit court yesterday upon the petition in In-
tel verition of W. H. Flrebaugh & Co., filed

suit fgaiust the defendant road in January,
and alleges as follows: That the said rail-
way company agreed to ship for petition-
ers in Austin, Tex., 20,000 pounds of hard-
ware from New York at a rate of 50 cent3
per 100 for the entire distance. That rely
ing u ion tuch agreement petitioners or-
dered h»id hardware from New York. That
the aaount received by said railway for the
EhlptLHit was $298 57, which petitioners
yald under protest to the railway. That the
ittoiiLt jU5tly due said railway was
3181 30, and petitioner prays for jadgmsnt
for ite amount caid in excess, $169 21,
which defendant railway has refused to
make good. The special master, after con-
sidering the matter, is of opinion that peti-
tioners are not entitled to recover In this
«c!l^i, and recommends that a decree be
entertd accordingly.
REPORT CONFIRMED.
In He same case an order was rendered
In the Uiilted States circuit court yester-
day, by Don A. Pardee, confirming the re-
port of the special master upon the petition
in ir.tei vension of the Helmbacher Porga
«nd Rolling Mills company; and that the

The case of L. Miiler vs. the New York
I/ife Insurance company has been removed
from ;be district court oi Orange county,
Tex , in u e United States circuit court of

lows: That in March, 18S7, the agent of

plaintiff to take ont a life insurance
policy, stating that if plaintiff would
take out a life insurance poiioy
that csfendant would issue him
a ten \ ear indorsement policy upon plain
tiff pa>)ug to defendant an annual pre
mluin of $175. That plaintiff agreed to
theseieitas, but that instead of defendant
Issniog plaintiff a ten-year indorsement
policy cefendant fraudulently changed-
plaintiff's application and issued a fifteen-
year ir.dorsement policy for $5000, which
lequiitdthe payment from plaintiff of a
semi-antmal premiom. Plaintiff therefore
prays for judgment for damages with 8 per
oent interest on $175 and for costs of suit.

delphia.
The British steamship Wallachia also ar-
rived in port yesterday in ballast. She
halls from Pensacola, and made the run
from there to Galveston in forty-three

time. This is the Wallachia's first trip
to GalveBton. She comes in ballast.
The German bark Diana was towed to
Kuhn's wharf from Labadie's wharf yes-
terday afternoon by one of the tugs. She
will soon begin loading. •

the afternoon and moored at one of the up-
per wharves. She will begin discharging

tained 448 sacks, destined for the Galveston

the Howard Oil company, and two bales of
cotton for the British steamship Duchess
Barge No. 4 was loaded with 1050 sacks o!
oil cake for the Howard OH company. The
Louise returned to Clinton with several
barges in tow.
LAID UP FOR THE WINTER.
The quarantine tug Hygela has gone to
Clinton to be laid up in fresh water for the
winter. The quarantine officials will miss
the Hygeia sadly, as it was quite conve-
nient to take a run out into the gulf and
about the bay. Hereafter, during the win-
ter months, tugs will be utilized whenever
it becoms necessary to take a trip outside
to inspect a vessel.
QUARANTINE ORDER REVOKED.
The governor's quarantine proclamation
issued last May quarantining all vessels
twenty days hailing from ports south of
26° north latitude was revoked on the 1st
instant. Quarantine is still kept up, how-
ever, against all places known to be In-
fected with cholera or yellow fever. There-
fore a limited inspection of sea-gomg ves-
sels will be contintyd, and if from a chol-
era or yellow fever port, or the vessel has
any sickness of an infections nature on
board, she will be placed in quarantine and
reported to the state health officer.
THE SECOND SUGAR CONSIGNMENT.
The tug Frank G. Fowler arrived in port
;ate Friday evening, having in tow the
barge Alice, loaded with 1047 l^arrels of su-
gar of the Louisiana sugar crop, and 50
barrels of molasses, all for the ascount of
the GalveBton merchants connected with
this enterprise. The transportation line is
known by the name of the Planters' and
Merchants' line. The sugar aud molasses
whs stewed in the sugar warehouse on
Central wharf levee, which is becoming
pretty well stocked. In conversation with
a News reporter yesterday, Mr. R. B. Haw-
ley, one of the merchants representing the
industry, said that next week two barges
were expected in from Morgan City, carry-
ing between them 50<X) barrels of sugar, and
that two barges would bring in this number
of barrels for every week thereafter, which
would be the average number received
every week.
"We have in onr stock every grade of
sugar made upon the plantation," said Mr.
Hawley, ''and these different grades will
be found in it during the sugar season. 8 J
far we have every reason to feel flattered
at the fair prospect before us. Everything
looks well. Our shipments to the interior
averege a fair number, and the demand by
the Texas trade is correspondingly good.
If we progress as favorably as we have
begun, I think it highly probable that wa
will find it necessary to enlarge our faclli
ties for handling this sugar croptotsvlca
their present size—that fs to say, we may
lengthen the warehouse consideraoly. We
are In a fair position to control the Texa3
trade in tiis character of traffic, and as we
have the means, facilities aud advantages
wherewith to prosecute it, I think the day
is not far distant when this expectatlou
will be realized." The two barges will ar-
rive ircm Morgan City next Friday with the
text consignment.

The next attraction at the Tremont opera-
house will be a very unusual one for an in-
door performance—a troup of trained
horses, twenty-two in numoer, which will
occupy the stage for an entire week, com-
mencing to-morrow evening. Speaking of
the recent appearance of this peculiar at-
tiaclion at New Orleans, the Picayune
says:
TLe wonderful educated horses of Pro-
fessor I). M. Bristol's equescurriculutn re-
main at the St. Charles another week, and
a stronger attraction cor.ld not be found.
The story of their drawing powers is told
by the audiences, which have Increased in
sir.e at each performance. At the Saturday
matinee the theater was crowded, and
staudlng room was at a premium. These
exhibitions are attended by all classes of
people, and all enjoy them. Clergymen
were seen In the audiences last wee>, and
multitudes of Sabbath-school children.
Professor Bristol is an educator of human
beings as well as horses, and his remarks
during the performances are Instructive.
An additional attraction this week will be
the little pony-mother Bessie and her baby
pony, born here last Thursday. They ap-
pear to-night and during the week.
The Bazar Closes Successfully.
The bazar,which has been progressing on
the coi ner of Tremont and Mechanic streets
for the past two days, came to a close last
night with a grand flourish. There was a
much larger attendance yesterday than
usual during the day, and at night tue
place was brimful of merriment. The deco-
rations were of a purely Japanese char-
acter, and displayed much of that rare
skill in design characteristic of the femi-
nine mind. There was evidence of indus-
trious application visible every whero in the
hall. It revealed itself in the well spread
table, the decorated walls and prettily ar-
ranged booths. Beside this, a spirit of
gayety prevailed that was very refreshing,
and the hours spent there by patrons were
beguiled away most pleasantly. After the
rush and hum had partially closed last
night the visitors remaining were
conducted into a cozy retreat,
where a piano was brought
into play witli good effect. Calls
were made for musical contributions, aud
Mr. Lem Selby, an inveterate dissstniuator
of merriment on such occasions, soon
launched out Into negro melody. This was
so particularly pleasing that he found him
self compelled to respond to three separate
encores before everybody was satisfied.
After Mr. Selby had retired from the field,
Messrs. Holmes and Brown, Miss Haygood
and Mrs. Holmes joined in a duet. This
was followed by a piano solo from Mr.
Oscar Gareissen, and a vocal solo respec-
tively from Messrs. Brown and Selby. The
contributors in each case were vigorously
applauded. And ttius the bazar was pleas-
antly closed. As the young ladies and all
others connected with the bazar had baen
active and diligent, quite a sum was real-
ized, in all about $250, which will be ex-
pended on St. John's church.
STILL FUR BLMKE.
Views of Three Republicans on Next Year's
Campaign—The Maine Man Ahead.
Chicago, III., October 30. — The Hon.
■'Steve" Dorsey, passing through Chicago
yesterday on his way from New York to
New Mexico, shed the light of his political
wisdom on a reporter. Dorsey said he be-
lieved the republicans could wiu In 1888.
He said he lived at the Fifth avenue hotel,
and every night he met men from all parts
of the country, and of course the first thing
talked of was politics. Everybody liked
Blaine, and tin y had created great enthu-
siasm over him, particularly at social gath-
erings. Anothir man, who was not doing
anything or saying anything for the pres-
idential nomination, but over whooi New
Yorkers were wild, was General Phil rtnori
dan. "You have no idea how popular that
man le In the east," said Mr. Dorsey. " Why
at Deimonico's the other night Jimmy
O'Brien, one of the big guna among the New
York democrats, said to a party of fellow-
democrats: 'If the republicans put up Pall
Bherldan for president he will carry New
York state—yes, he will carry New York
o ty. I believe it as we.U as I believe I am
sitting here.'"
Ex-Congressman W. D. Washburne of
Minnesota told a reporter that the next re-
Eublican national convention would be
eld at either Chicago or Minneapolis, with
hopes for the latter. Blaine, he said, "was
as popular as < ver in bis state; but if he
did tut run, and the republicans selected
an equally gecd man, tuey were bound ti
carry the country, for the democracy would
have to go. The latter party wa3 to be
held responsible for not relieving the peo-
ple from the burden of overtaxation. IC it
was not done at the next session of con-
giess ihe people would know on whose
shoulders to put the blame. The tax on
sugar ought to be taken off, and also off of
seme graoes of tobacco, while the whisky
tax should be reduced, aud the castoms
tariff considerably reduced, but not enough
to injure American industries. It was a
difficult problem, and he did not believe
the democracy was able to solve it."
Third of the political "ex's" was ex-Sena-
tor Patterson of South Carolina, who says
that while in Pennsylvania lately he had a
talk with Don Cameron. Senator Cameron
at tte time was much excited over a report
that he had said Mr. Cleveland would be
elected again. Of course everybody who
knew him felt certain he would not make
st,oh a lemaik, because there was no prob-
ability .of Mr. Cleveland's re-electloo.
Senator Cameron declared that nomine:
could bring abont & republican defeat ex-
cept an unwise nomination. He was friend-
ly to Blaine, and so was Pennsylvania: bat
even if Blaine was not in the race, tte re-
publican party had statesmen that thecoun-
tiy would only be too willing to see put at
the,head cf the government, York
iltes.
