Waco, December l2-The Cline
habeas corpus case, which hrs become
Il viretahle cause celebre" here, was
concluded this afternoon, after one OF
the hardest legal fights ever made in
Waco. the testimony, rs introduced
by the state, was rather startling, for
il tended To make Lvnn's death the
result Of n deep-lnid conspiracy, with
Cline as the principal and Skinner and
Beckman AS accomplices. At the first
trial it was made to appear that Cline
acted in self-defeuse, killing Lynn to
save his tCline's) own life. The state
sought 10 reverse this theory, and
place Lynn in the attitude of II man
who was decoyed to his death by three
men who We're his enemies. after
hearing all the testimony Judge
Rimes fixed the bail of the three men
Cline, skinner aud Beckman, at
$500 each. Skinner gave this amount
at once. offering j. Y. Smith. of the
real estate firm of Walton,
Rogers d Smith of this city. Cline
understood that his friends will find
it for him. 1t is doubtful if Beckman
will be able To furnish sureties.

term of court. John Hammond, who
killed negro at the oil works last
month, had his case continued, and

The burglar or burglars then bored
holes around the lock and unfastencd
the rear door, thus afiording ready
means of entrance and exit. Atten.
ton was next turned to the safe which
stood In the front portion of the house,
near the street. A email hole was
drilled into the door about hal an inch
from the combination disc, and through
this Il drill inserted. a smart blow
from sledge hammer demolished the
interior works of the lock and the thief
had but To turn the handle and the
contents Of the safe were at his dispo-
sal. Mr.. Gather informed the re-
porter that there were near $500 i'm the
safe. The cash box, containing the
money and paper, was taken into the
lot in the rear OF the saloon and riiled.

papers and box being found this morn

Madrid, December l2.-The minis
terlal council has approved the draft
of the royal speech to be delivered al
the opening of the corles. 1t is re.
ported that the speech announces the
extension of suffrage to all able to
read and write and who pay taxes,
and with a view toits future extension,
mentions possible reform of the con-
stitution for discussion by future
cortes. 1t proposes bills for civil mar
rlages and jury trial The relation of
Spain with all foreign powers are
friendly. The dispute with France
relative to the treatment of Alfonso in
Paris has been satisfactorily arranged.
The relations now existing between
the two countries are friendly, NJ is
betting two adjacent nations with
common commercial relations. Spain
Will endeavor to increase cordialitv
with France if possible. 1t is believed
that Sagasto will accept the speech,
thus avoiding split in the Liberal
party. The Conservative organs de-
nounce the commercial agreement
with England, and claim that its pro-
visions are injurious to Spanish inter
ests.

nor teltgraphed to-day to w. II Ad
ans, sheriff OF Brown county, inquir.
ing in regard to the trouble yesterday
at Brentwood between the citizens
and fence-cutters. The reply was that
everything was quiet. and no assist
ance required at present. 1t is be-
lieved here that the incendary
speeches Of two prominent gentlemen
in Brown county are responsible for
the agitated condition of Its people.
The governor held consultation with
Adiutant-General King, aud If the
troubles are revived, rangers will be
quickly dispatched to the scene.
The comptroller has sent Gov. Ire
land communication, the text of
which is that tax collectors should be
made TO remit their collections to the
state treasury instead of depositing
with the county treasurer in payment
of its apportionmcnt of the school
fund. To the present plan is attrib-
uted the low condition OF the cash bal
ance.
Adit.-Gen. King has filed his au-
nual report. IL treats of the
aid to the militia. Fence cut
ting is discussed at length, an
impartial statement on both sides
being given. No specific legislation
is suggested, but the idea is expressed
that while the interests of private in
dividuals should be protected as far AS
possible, they should be made sub
servient to the public good. This is
indicative of the opinion of General
King that the pasture men will have
to make considerable concessions.

wise object to the German crown
prince visiting the pope. The Moni-

King Humbert and the pope, and it
shows the difficulty created by both
the king and the pope living in the

that the visit would prove it is per-
iectly possible for both the king and
pope to live in Rome.
