The Old Folks Ruled Out-The school
In the sumner Building.

The second session of the night schools was
held last night. Many new applicants ap-
peared. At the Sumner building, where the
principal colOred night school is located, about
as many new applicants appeared last night as
on Monday night, so the time of the principal,
Mr.. Cron well. was taken up in the work OF or
ganiz,tion. About a hundred new applica nts
appeared last night. The scenes about the
building were picturesque and interesting.
Many OF those who came were gray
headed, and seemed very much in earn-

two brought armfuls of old BOOKS. Wh1le

picked up their states and books and went
sorrowfully away.
There was a very general increase in the at

A NEW MEXICAN REPURLIC.
More Particulars or the Alleged Fiji
bustering Scheme Against Mexico.

A special from Dallas, Texas, to the New
York Herald says: It appears that the filibus
tering expedition proposed to invade Mexico
and establish new republic, to be composed o
the present states Of chihuahua, Sonora and
Durango, is no myth. Two emissaries Of the
movement arrived in Dallas Wednesday, and
under promise not to give any information
that might be used against him, one of them
has given to your correspondent some points
as TO the true inwardness Of the daring scheme
He says that this dlibus,ering movement was
on foot before the Cutting case was heard of
but that in matters OF such delicacy il is neces
sary to move SLOWLY and with great caution
He did not, however, deny that Cutting Is now
one of the leaders Of the affair.
The executive committee consists of twelve
persons, three OF whom are located in FL Paso
two are travelling and working up the scheme
by secret agents, and Of the remainder, some ol
them, very wealthy men, are in New York Chi
cago, Salt Lake City and the city of Mexico.
Catholic priests One Of the latter is now on
his Way to Rome to confer with the pope. HIS
holiness, 1t Is said, has long desired some con-
vulsion in Mexico which might give opportu-
nifty for the re-estaDishment there OF the state
church, and the cOnspiratOrs look with great
confidence to him for aid.
The New York and Chicago capitalists are in
the scheme for what they can make. They
have faith in It's success, and propose 70 get in
on the ground floor OF the projected sdt new gov
bonds aud grants OF land and mining privi-
leges.
CHANCE FOR HENRY GEORGE.
The conspiracy has progressed SO far that the
plan of the new government has been formu.
lated. 1t is to be socialistic republic, held in
check by a strong military power. Great in
ducements are to be offered TO the unemployed
wOrkinglnen OF the United States to emigrate
thither. The secret agents say that the pro-
posed invasion will not necessarily or probably
take place from Ell Paso, but may soon occur at
any point on the frontier between Fort Yuma
and Brownsville,
Cutting, the only man whose personality is
publicly known or suspected in connection with
the affair, is receiving bushel OF letters a day
from all parts of the country. Nearly all these
letters tender personal service, and the writers
OF many OF them say they can each raise from
one to five companies. armed and equipped,
The Yaqui Indians, who have tor five years
past held At bay the military power OF Mexico
have been approached to become active allies
of the movement, and their chiefs are eager &c
take part. Confidential agents are to be ap-
pointed in the principal cities OF Texas and
throughout the country. Ten thousand men
have already been pledged, and the leaders O
the movement say this number is sufficient fnI
the inau- uration oi their purpose, though they
could, II necessary, throw an army OF one hun
dred thousand men across the Rio Grande.

apparently without word of warning, began
firing at him. Noon made desperate resist

people rushed in the three men were found
struggling in a heap on the floor of the room,
which was full of smoke from the discharges of
their weapons; The carpet was covered with
pools OF blood. Chairs and tables were over

about. The wallis and doors were perforated
with bullets. Noon had two wounds, in breast

twenty eight years OF age, and OF handsome and
very imposing presence.
THE WOMAN IN THE CASE.
Despite great sensation caused by the trag.
edy Its motive was until Wednesday involved
in great deal of mystery. The inquest how
ever, extorted from reluctant witnesses the fact
that 1t Was CAUSED by the inatuaLion of
BaillH's wife Tor the young lawyer aud her fre-

she was accustomed To envelop herself in a
deep veil and take every other possible pre-
caution to insure secrecy. Noon boasteu of his

weeks when he imprudensiy addressed her (;

trouble. Baiiin, VINO Is wealthy farmer and
VINO lives at LAguna, seven miles from Santa
Rosa, Is over seventy years Old and his wile is
ABOUT thirty. She was married to him in her
niteenth year, and is OF family that is highly
respectable.
