Owing to the fact that Mayor Grace. of
New York, has grown unappreciative Of
the manly art Of smuggling, the sullivan
Mitchell fight will not take place IN that
city to-day, as advertised. 1t is more
than possible that the pugilists will have
a little friendly sparring match some
where near the city, so that their training
and keeping sober for two whole weeks
will not nave been altogether in vain. If
this proves to be the case, Mitchell will
probably be a completely used up man"

MARSHALL, TEX, Jan l9.-Quite sen-
sation was created here this morning by
the announcement that during the night
unknown parties had come like thief in
the night and stolen away the superintend-
ent's Office Of the Texas & Pacific Some
time since an Injunction was served on
all the officials of the road forbidding the
removal OF any offices. This iniunc-
ton was from the honorable dis
trict court of the state of
Texas, but it seems was not
honorable enough to command the re-
spect of the Texas & Pacific railroad
officials.
The citizens committee, in charge of
the suit against the company, sent Judge
A. j. Booty and Hon. +. b. Sexton to
New Orleans Sunday to see Judge Pardee
in reference TO the removal of Offices I'M
der the receivership, and those gentlemen
are no doubt in consultation with Judge
Pardee to-day.
Onr citizens are justly indignant, as
every citizen of the state of Texas should
be. Aside from the claims of Marshall
and Harrison counties against the com
pany Is the question of whether or not
railroad companies can laugh at the
laws of Texas, and thus utterly ignore
the courts. Exactly what action VIII be
taken by the citizens here is
not known. They will do no.
thing rashly, but consult with legal
talent, and do all that can be done under
the laws of the state--that is, il we have
any laws from which railroads are not
exempt.
The employers of j r. Browns Office
have been dismissed with salary to run
until the LIST, supposedly for the purpose
of moving that Office the first good dark
night. Clerks and the porter of the
superintendent's Office came to work to-
day as usual, but found empty rooms.

ABILENE, TEX, Jan. ls.--Up to this

shipped at this place, and there are about
100 more in the county that win be
shipped this season. Grain is raised in
abundance throughout the county. In
this and Jones county there will not be
less than one hundred farms opened by
the LIST of June. The lands are about the
same class in each county, which Is a
dark red loan, very rich, easily worked,
and will produce as fine cotton as any
land in the state OF Texas. Besides, for
small grain the lands in Taylor and Jones
counties have no equal. Oats and wheat
are raised In immense quantities, for
which our merchants pay the highest
market prices, and as the farmers and
the people generally Of this and surround
ing counties know that Abilene Is the
best market for all kinds of produce, and
the largest and best shipping point west
Of Fort Worth they bring or send their
products from fifty TO a hundred miles In
every direction TO Abilene.
There were several horses sold on the

Directors of the G. S. & St. L.

oBtNidl w thc phIettc
LoNGvIEw, TEL, Jan. l9.-Ata regular
annual meeting of the stockholders of the
Galveston, Sabine & st. Louis Railway
company, there were 4454 shares out of a
total Of $500 shares (of record repre-
scented.
The following gentlemen were elected
directors for the ensuing year by 445l
shares; r. X. CLANCY, j. Z. Gibbons,
G. l.. Renpor, Peter underwater, j. II.
McGauley, w. Alex Abey, Mai. Jas. Tur.
ner, Hon. Sam Cundiff, Brad Barner
At subsequent NEE ting of the board of
directors Brad Barner was elected presl-
dent aud general manager; Mai. james
Turner, vice-presideut; Hon Sam Gun
diff, secretary and treasurer, and Peter
Vandewater, chief engineer.
A year ago the stockholders authorized
the directors to increase the stock 10
$4,000 per mile. The Galveston & ST.
Louis Construction company has never
complied with its contracts and has never
applied for any stock nor has any ever
been issued or authorized by the direc.
tors. The absurdity of three individuals
with one share OF stock each trying to
overrule 1851 shares in stockholders
meeting, where all voting is done by
shares of stock, is cheeky TO say the least
Hence the decision that the above were
elected legally.

there has been $4,000 added, making In

that 5000 will be raised before the
