drowned in Big Lake, yesterday, was
recovered this morning at 7 O'Clock
and brought to the city for interment.
1t seems there was no one present
when the poor man lost his life, his
companions being absent at another
point Of the lake. On returning to

igcd out IN the lako and the car, q
buckle. aud hat, floating near the
bank. Then they suspected their com
panion was drowned Assistance was
obtained and through .lo balance OF
tho day and all last night
the work of dragging the
lake was carried on until the body
was found this morning. Mr. Sinclair
was u native of England, but married
in Ohio u widow whose first husband
was also drowned, and Mr.. Sinclair

GALVESTON, July 25.- Especial. 49,
four years age strenuous efforts were
made to enforce the Sunday closing
la1y OF this city, which resulted in
violent demonstrations on the
part Of the saloon mon and
storekeepers. They threatened TO for
clbly stop street car traffic on Sun.
Gay, Claiming it was an equal viola
ton Of the law. These demonstrations
so frightened the authorl.
Ties that further enforcement
OF the obnoxious ordinance
was abandoned and il remained 9 dead
letter. A number Of arrests were
made at the time, but no convictions
followed. The grand jury which has
been in session three weeks
made its report to-day, wherein
they ostensibly explained that thew
had failed to return Indictments
against the aforesaid rioters On tho
grounds that the evidence before
them implicated the little law
preakefs only ana did not
reach the ringleaders. 1t leaks
out tonight that this report was par.
TALLY intended as blind TO the public.
as the grand jury did not follow the
usual custom Of adjourning after
handing in its report. The police de-
partment was instructed this even
ing to watch every saloon and
furnish data TO the grand Jury next
week. This indicates thaC largo
number Of indictments arc TO DO fonnd
and the saloon men Of the city aTe
greatly excited Tonight and d6elSre
that the riotous scenes OF four wears
ago will be repeated.
In the matter of the election frauds
committed at the last municipal cleo
ton the grand jury returned indict-
ments tins evening against five citi-
zens for eeoreting and 9uppressing
ballots, and for making false
returns. Dennis Way, Judge of the
Eleventh Ward, was also indicted Tor
making false returns. Gus McKer- |
nan, late Chief Of Police under De
BacLO Mayor Atkins, during his oriet
term, was also indicted for Attempting
to bride one Of the clerks
of election. A search of the city
reveals tho fact that Johnson, the man
who furnished the evidence In these |
cases, has been spirited away from the !
city. Election Judge May Was arrested |
Tonight. MckernOn il sill at large. A |
number OF other important indict. |
ments are anticipated. The ballot |
