THE FEDERAL COURTHOUSE.


GAINESVILLE AND SHERMAN FIGHT
ING 1T.
WASHINGTON, May 30.-Greatly to
the disturbance of Texas senators an
other flood of petitions protesting
against the location of the fed
eral court at Denison have commenced
to arrive from Sherman and Gaines
vile. The senators regard the action
of the house as final, and
feel bound to work for the
bill rs it comes from that body; both
say they are handicapped by the un.
reasonable opposition manifested, and
while they recognize the constitutional
right of the present petitions the send
ing of them is unwise and can only aid
Vest and Garland and endanger the
interest of Texas, for no towns
but those mentioned in the bill can Sc
cure the court.
Messrs. Vest and Garland will ust
the petitions ifpcssible to prove that
the people of Texas are opposed to the
bill.
Communications have been for
warded to Texas explaining the posi-
ton of Messrs Coke and Maxey
in which they state that
they regard the selection
of q point as secondary to securing the
passage of the bill and will endeavoi
to pass il in its present shape.
The agent of Gainesville here does
not conceal that the object is to defeat
TIE bill If necessary to prevent the
court from being located at Denison.

WASHINGTON, May S0.-Debate on

The impression is that no amendments
will be made and that the bill will be-
come q law as soon as sent from the

1t Is noticeable that the
attempt of Hoar to make the
amendment placing all soldiers of the

feated by almost an unanimous vote,

sidered an indication of the opposition
