RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED.
Resolutions adopted by the Houston cot-
ton exchange and board of trade of Hous-
ton, Tex., March 1, regarding the appropri-
ation of 16,200,000 with which to construct
a deep harbor at Galveston, Tex:
Whereas the growing necessities of the
vrest demand a first class harbor on the gulf
coast-of Texas, in order that the surplus
products of this vast region shall find an
outlet to the markets of the world by a
shorter routa and at a vast annual saving
to the producer; and
Whereas the average surplus tonnaga of ;
farm products of the west amounts annu- '
Ally to many millions of tons; and
Wheraas our own necessities, as the j
largest distributing point of the state of
Texas, demand the relief that would be af- I
lorded by deep water at Galveston; and
Whereas the congress of the United States
did, at its last session, provide for a special
board of engineers, whose duty it was to
report to the presvnt congress the most eli-
gible point or points upon the gulf coust of
Texas for a deep harbor, to be of ample
depth, width and capacity to accommodate
the largest ocean-going teasels, and the
commercial and naval necessities of the
country; and
Whereas the said board of engineers has
reported in faVor of Galveston, and recom-
mended the immediate appropriation of
$o,200.000 for the improvement of that port;
therefore
Resolved, by the Houston cotton exchange
and board of trade of Houston. Tex., that
we respectfully urge upon congress to im-
mediately appropriate the sum of fO,200,000
to complete the improvement or tlia port of
Galveston.
Resoivud further,'that a copy of these
resolutions bo forwarded to the senators of
our state and our representative in congress,
with tho urgent request that they earnestly
labor to havo the appropriation made as
recommended.

FIRE THIS EVENING.
This evening between 5 aud 6 o'clock a lira
alarm called the fire department to a small
frame building in the forty-second district,
near the waterworks standpipe. It was
used as a carpenter shop, and no one Is able
to tell how the fire started,
as there was nobody in tha building
at that time, but it seemed to have started
under the house. The department acted
with remarkable swiftness, and despite the
fact that there were several small frame
buildings crowded together, only one was
destroyed though Jtwo others were slighty
burned. The entire loss will not amount to
more than J500.
The building was the property of Mrs.
Margaret Stagamati, who lives on West
Preston street, between Ninth and Tenth
streets.
The firemen made another battle with
the flames that won them new laurels.
Chief Parker was in charge.
A BRUTAI, ASSAULT.
About half-past 10 o'clock last uight a ne-
gro woman ran scared and screaming to the
front door of the dwelling house on the
west aide of Smith street, between Prairie
and Texas avenue, followed by a black buck
negro, who quickly disappeared. The girl
said that in the lonely hollow just as she
had crossed the bridge the bruto had graspod
her with an open kuife in one hand and had
threatened to Slii her. Th& appearance of
a white man. who onened the door of his
residence on hearing the screams, frighten-
ed the brute away aud the negresa made her
cscape.
Sl'OAR PLANTERS' ASSOCIATION.
Themembers of the Texas SugnrPlanters'
association will met here to-morrow (Tues-
day) afternoon at 4 o'clock, in regular ses-
sion in accordance with the provisions of

rived here this evening and the meeting
promises to be one of more than ordinary
interest.
POLITICAL WIND.
This evening on Magnolia street, opposite
Schifer'a grocery, a few voters and a num-
ber of candidates assembled to make
speeches on the political situation, each in
behalf of himself. The leading talks were
on the mayoralty and the race. There was
not much enthusiasm.

buted by Mrs. Chas. II. Bering, aud a box of
confectioneries aucl toys from MisBe.3 Alice

MEETING OF STATE LL'MllKRUEN. '
1 * The talk of the annual meetiug of state
j lumbermou to take place here in April is
not loud or windy and is confined chiefly to
the business men, who mean to make It the
biggest annual event that this great element
of Texas population havo yet enjoyed. They
look upon it as an event to be treated with
moie consideration than anything Houston
shall have had for a long time, and hence
tho determination to enlarge upon it. In
due time united nction will be taken by tho
business men looking to proper provision
for the event.
NO EBULLITION OF PATRIOTISM.
Yesterday was the real anniversary of the
declaration of Terns independence, but it
being Sunday this was made the legal holi-
day, and as a result there are one or two
Hags floating in honor of the evont, but
there is nothing else to Da seen in recogni-
tion of the great occurrence. The banks of
course are observing it by being closed, but
that is the extent of Houston's commemo-
rative demonstrations, unless porhaps tha
street parade by tho Primrcso & West MiU-
strel company.
