IT 1s reported that the Houston and
Texas Central railroad Is going to change
its guage between Houston and Hearne,
thus giving a uniform guage from the
lakes to the gulf This would indicate
that the long talked of market at the
gulf for the surplus grain OF the great
southwest may soon be reality. There
is no reason why Galveston should not
be as good a market for grain as New
York or Baltimore.

SPEAKER KERR has sent in his written
statement to the investigating commit
tee in reference to his having taken q
bride as charged by Harvey. He says
that he recommended Green because he
was pleased with "his soldierly build and
bearing" He denies all acquaintance
with Harvey and says his statements are
utterly and maliciously false. Mr..
Kerr's political opponents and his friends
generally seem willing to accept his
statements as against those of Harvey.
One swears that he did and the other
swears that he did not.

al. making the whole thing void. The
