Mr. Scaly Spontaneously Reelected.
GALVESTON, Oct. l3.-At meeting of

George Sealy was unanimously re-
elected president, the board positively
refusing to accept Mr.. Sealy's resigna-
ton recently rendered and by him
urged on the grounds Of increased pri-
vate responsibilities, caused by the re-
cent death fhis brother, John Sealy, and
his late partner, George Ball. This ac-
ton on the part of the board is an
agreeable surprise to the community.
Cgnstdcrable speculation was INDUCED
in during the day in business circles
as to the probable result of the meeting.
All Interested express themselves salts
ned with the reelection of Mr.. Sealy. IL
is thought that the action is so conpli-
mentary and spontaneous that Mr..
Soa'y will abandon all further idea of
rosigning. The election Of the secretary
to succeed Mr., killeen was POSTPONED

WAsHINGToE, oct BIN his report to
the secretary Of the interior, upon the
condition of affairs in New Mexico last
year, Gov. Sheldon says the territory has
prospered materially in all its indus
tries. Stock raising has received a
greater impetus than any other interest,
the number of cattle and sheep being es-
Jlmated at 2,OOO,OOO head. The report
states that there is an irreprossble con-
llicl waged between the cattle and the
sheep ranthers, which may result i'm the
near future, in the destruction of the
sheep raising business. The trouble is
attributed to tho destructOn of
pastures by sheep, and there il no
authority resting in the territorial gov
ernment to stop the conflict. Tho rem
edy suggested is tho passage Of law de-
inning the boundaries Of ranches and re-
curing the erection of fences.

THE latest charge against CLEVELAND

for he is monopolizing the support of
nearly every honest Republican in the
