Fight ut IL Dance.

FIT. STOCKTON, Tex, July S.-News has
just reached this post of a sanguinary con-
flict between q number of prominent Amer
leans and some MeXicans of equally high
standing. James Frazier, rich cattleman
and son of Judge Frazier, was stabbed
to death, and Crispine SOsa and Pedro
LeOpo BaSillO, MeXicans, were shot and
killed. Frazier and party OF friends were
en- route to his ranch, a long distance from
here in the country, on the night of June
80, and stopped at the residence of Pedro
Sosa, wealthy Mexican, who had given
dancing party in honor of st. Peters day
and which was being largely attended by
Mexican families. The party of Americans
intruded themselves on the festivities, pre-
Stunning largely upon the weather and the
influence of the FraZiers and took more
liberties than the proprieties would justify.
In one of the quadrilles James Frazier UNI
dertook what is commonly termed Ito run
the dance" The MeXicans protested and
he hit Pedro Sosa over the head with piS-
tOl. A general shooting and stabbing
affray followed, with the fatalities men
tened. The FraZiers and their friends are
swearing desperate things and the Mexi-
cans are prepared to protect themselves.
All disinterested reports tend to eXculpate
the MeXicanS from responsibility for the
affray.

Samuel I. Houser is one of the most pop
ular, enterprising and progressive of Mon
tana's business men. and has been for nearly
q quarter Of a century identified with the
interests of the territory. He is a Ken
tuckian by birth, having been born in
that state in 1885, and is there
fore so years old. His early years
were spent in Kentucky, where he acquired
his education, and was for short time en-
gagged i'll business. At the age Of % lie

spicuOus figure in matters of this nature.
He was a delegate to the convention that
nominated Cleveland from the opening ses-
sion until he was nominated, and served as
a member of the committee appointed to
notify the president of the action of the
convention. Since President Cleveland was
maugurated he has made no effort
to secure appointment for him
self, and at first had decided
objections toward becoming a candidate for
governor, iHsOmuch that it required consid-
cradle urging on the part Of his friends to
persuade him to enter the field, and that
only when it was fOregone conclusion that
he was the man most likely to receive the
appointment. lie is spoken of as man of
commanding ability, thoroughly business
like in his dealings OF any sort, and well
calculated to ill the gubernatorial chair OF
the territory for the best interests of the
commonwealth and with credit to himself.
He is of fine physique, rather heavy set,
dark complexion and with griZzled gray
beard. He has sharp gray eyes and a
pleasing cast of countenance. He is well
known by several prominent st. Paul men
both as business man and from his politi-
cal standing and is spoken OF in the high

the position to which President Cleveland
yesterday appointed him.
