TEXAS LAND SMINnLR.
Thousands OF People Being Victim.
lied by old Certificates.

AUSTIN, TEX, February 22.-Thc
land agents of this city have within
the past few weeks received flood of
inquiries from persons in New York
Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago and
other points as to the status OF Texas
land certificates. II appears that some
parties are unloading Texas certifi-
Gates, and have somehow created a
demand and found purchasers. Some
of the certificates are ont of date and
worthless, and Others are of little
value, as there is now in sight no pub
lie domain upon which to locate them.
Texas holders unable to sell have, in
many cases, illegally located these GER
tificates upon lands especially set aside
for school and university purposes, or
asylum lands, or lands belonging to
the railway companies. This they have
done in the faint hope that at some
future time the Legislature will val
idatc their locations, especially those
upon common school lands. There is
no public domain in Texas any longer,
and the holders OF these certificates
(of which there are several thousand
outstanding are undoubtedly finding
a market for them amongthe moneyed
people of the East and North. These
certificates all bear date about 100
years back, and are very scarce in
Texas, because they have been picked
up and sent East for the benefit of I'M
land spectators OF the
North. 1t has been repeatedly sug-
gested by prominent men in the State
that Texas ought to advertise the true
of these old certificates, and
thus prevent thousands of people
being swindled, to the detriment of the
good name of the State.

Queer 10 the consumer / have dis
covered that in the practical working
of the cattle business as at present
conducted that there are eleven mid
dlemen, each OF whom must have a
profit before the meat reaches the con-
sumner. The wholesalers are eating us
up. We propose to start retail shops
in all of the tenement house districts
of the city where our meats will be
sold on account OF the company. The
cattle will be killed II our abattoir.
The beef will be shipped in refriger-
ator cars. 1t will be delivered TO a
central market, and from there dis
tributed TO the different shops. We
shall have the scheme nj work in
about sixty days The details are
now being perfected. The advantage
to the consumer will amount 10 from
2 TO 4 cents per pound all around. We
think we might as well give the con-
sumner the benefit of this profit which
now goes to the middlemen."

FRAUD AND CORRUPTION
In the Soldiers Orphan Schools OF
Pennsylvania.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, February o.
The Record this morning publishes a
six-column article on the manage
ment of the soldiers orphan schools
of Pennsylvania, which alleges not
only official discrimination, neglect
and corruption, but also that a syndi-
cate is profiting at the rate of $4,000
year in the management of four of
the schools. A voluminOus array of
figures is given to support the allega-
tions. In some of the syndicate
schools children are packed together
in bedrooms and school-rooms like
herrings Fiity-three children were
removed last fall from good schools,
single beds and pleasant surroundings
in the Northern Home, to sleep in
foul rooms at Chester Springs. At
Mercer, in consequence of the penuri-
GUS methods employed by the man
some OF the boys bathed in.
pickle barrels, two to each barrel.
At Chester Springs some twenty
five or thirty pupils have been
deprived of all schooling for three
months. All regard for the
children seems to have been subordi-
mated to a heartless grab for profit, and
this evil influence has been carried to
such an extent that premium of 500
head has been paid to agents to re-
cruit children for various schools. 1t
is because of this competition and be-
cause of the comparative scarcity Of
orphans that the schools are now half
filled with children whose parents are
living off the $350,000 appropriated
annually by the State to pay for feed

WAR ON THE SPORTS.
Efforts TO Suppress Gambling at
st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, February 22.-4Ever
since the public gambling-houses in
this city were closed, about two years
ago, by police authority, several of the
gamblers have been running houses
across the riverin East st. Louis, and
it is alleged that they have been pro-
tected by the East st. Louis police on
the payment of large money bonus.
This becoming obnoxious to the bet
ter class of citizens, and no hope ofire-
lief from the East st. Louis police
being entertained, the aid of the
county authorities was invoked, and
Saturday night Sheriff Robiquet, with
severaldeputies, aided by Thomas Fur
long, Chief of the Missouri Pacific
Railway Secret Service, and several of
his detectives, raided the three prin-
cipal houses, captured their proprie-
tors and employees, took them to Bell
vile, the county seat, and placed
them under bonds, 1t is now alleged
that this action was instigated by
Chief Furlong, and that aside from
the purpose of breaking up the gam
bling dens or closing and proving the
alleged corrupt relations between the
East st. Louis police authorities and
the gamblers, it has some mysterious
connection with the murder about
three months ago of the Hon. John B.
Bowman, ex-Mayor of East st. Louis
anda prominent and wealthy lawyer of
that city. No explanation Of the mat
ter can be obtained, but it is said that
some startling revelations are likely to
be made in the prosecution of those
cases.
