ERSOR OF COAHUILA.

sAIru.Lo, Mex, January 5,-An election for gov
ernor Of the STATE of Coahuila took place to-day.
II should have been held in November last but was
postponed on account of the possibility that the
national administration candidate, Col, r. Garza

Ramon Falcon, the Gonzales nominee Since that
time the federal government, through their agent,
Gen Cervautes the pregent military governor, with

stationing strong garrisons of national troops at
every doubtful city and pueblo Accordingly to-
day. having taken every precaution against the
merest possibility of defeat, the military governor
allowed, or suffered the election to take plnce.
The result is easy to prophesy Col. Garza Ga
Ian will in all probability be elected by "fair bal
lot and an honest count (D with large majority.
But even if he is not, some crookedness In the
manner of holding the election will probably be
brought forward, which will annull the election,
or else the votes will he counted for him when they
brought to this city, whether they bear his
or not. At all events, your correspondent wages
his reputation for truth and veracity on the pre-
diction that Col. Garza Gaan will be the next civil
governor of the state of Coahuila. The exact re
suit will not be known until one week from to-day
on that date the final count will be made and an
nounced to the public. Thus monopoly and "the

NUEyo LAREDO, Mex, January 5-Our usually
quiet and orderly city was surprised Sunday morn
ing by the report ON the streets that Francisco
Camille, well-known young man had committed
srlcide. STATESMAN reporter immediately re-
paired to the scene of the tragedy only to be re-
fused admittance, the grief-stricken father and
family would only see intimate friends As near
as could be learned from outside sources the cir
cumstances, however, are about as follows; The
young man had become enamored with Young
lady here belonging to the poorer class, much be-
low him in station and caste. Wishing to make
her his wife he communicated the desire to his
father only to meet with stern refusal, as the
paternal veto was brought into requistion to stop
any such degrading @ proceeding. He reasoned
with his parent bat to avail it seems that this
occurred on December 81, as the couple wished
to begin married life on New
Years day. The unsuspecting father
congratuating himself on saving his own name
and the reputation of his son from the blemish of
an unequal marriage, little dreamed of the fatal
result. The quiet resignation of the son to the
paternal command proved to be the forerunner of
a dire calamity, as on Sunday morning, 8bout Q
O'Clock, the young man took his own life in his
room at his fathers house. shooting himself twice
through the heart and lungs, from which death fol-
lowed Immediately.
The girl is eaid to be very pretty and attractive,
and takes the death of her faithful lover very hard
The remorse and grief OF the father are heart
reiding, but he sees his error too late.

DOWN OF SALARIES-MAY-
"
OR'S VETO.
Special telegram to The Statesman;


Special telegram to The Statesman:
GALVESTON, January AT a recent netting. the
city council in passing upon the budget tor the
coming year. adopted an ordinance making large
reductions in the salaries of many prominent city
officials, and reducing generally the pay of all
ployes. The salary of the city attorney was re
duced from S1BOO to $i,2O0; the health physician,
from S3,BN to $1,000; harbor master, from S1,SW
to 81 2OO collector of taxes from $4,000 to 81 500
and other salaries in greater or less proportioa,
were thus reduced
At a meeting of the city council tonight TIE
mayor vetoed the aforesaid ordinance. His veto
message is an exhaustive review of the salary ques
ton and was published in advance of its delivery,
Mayor Fulton shows that in 1872, under the reform
administration, the salary of city attorney was
fixed at SS,CO per annuIn, ard remained thus for
seyeal years, until finally reduced to $l,S0O. Now
the aldermen desire to reduce the same to S1,2G
He also shows how for many years, when the duties
were not half responsible at present, the ciy
physician received $500 per annum, but now they
So on through the list the honorable
mayor goes, showing the city fathers that when
Galveston was a much smaller city, both CONNER
cialy and numerically, she paid fair salaries but
now they desired to cut them below all reasonable
bounds. In his able veto, Mayor Fulton takes oc-
casion to expose the shameful method In which,
for ten years past, taxes have been assessed in
Galveston. He gives figures that are startling, as
they show that systematic fraud has been practiccd
upon the small property holder, whose little all
was assessed at say half its true value while
the rich Hebrews or Gentile's property was
assessed at one-fourth or one fifth it's value, aud
taxed accordingly. Notwithstanding the mayor
falls into poetry in his message, ii is of the
ablest vetoes ever read in Texas.
After hearing the veto the aldermen proceeded
to vote upon the question of sustaining the same
and the veto was defeated by vote of ten to two
Aldermen Weis and Goldthwaite voted to sus-
tain.
There is still some doubt about the new ord-
nance becoming law, as the charter stipuates
that such changes shall be made prior to the first
of each year.
