BuRNET, August 22.-The question of
the operation of the road to Marble Falls
appears to be settled at last. Several
months ago it was thought all the prelim-
inaries had been settled, but some kind of
misunderstanding came up between the
Austin and Northwestern company and
the owners of the Marble Falls grade, and
this disagreement has delayed matters no
little Your correspondent has just inter
viewed f. H. Holloway, who makes the
statement that the contract by which the
Austin and Northwestern is to iron and
operate the line to Marble Falls his been
signed and is now in effect, 80 that all diff
ferences are at an end and the road will be
pushed to completion as promptly
as possible. Two short gaps of
unacquired right of way can and
will be condemned at once
unless the parties can agree and the grad
ing force will be Increased and put to
work on these sections of the road. A
tract of the best cedar land in the count
has been bought by Colonel Holloway, and
force of men employed to get out ties.
Estimates for the bridging on the com
pleted grade will be made soon, and the
timbers for this purpose ordered. In con
nection with railroad matters, it is learned
that Colonel Holloway has been chosen
traffic manager of the Austin and North

McKINnEY's RECEPTION.

An Ohio Republican Statesman Visits
Atlanta-Speecn of Van Epps.
ATLANTA, August 22.-McKinley's recep-
tion at the Georgia Chatauqua yesterday
was remarkable. Mckinley was led to the
stand by Henry W. Grady and introduced
in an eloquent speech by Judge Howard
Van Epps, of Atlanta, one of Georgia's
most brilliant young men. significant
fact is that Van Epps is a revenue tariff
man.
In the course of his remarks Judge Van
Epps said: "The truth is the intelligent
men of the south are growing more impa-
tient of the suggestion that it is political
treason to listen to the other side of the
argument of the great industrial question
seriously affecting their material interests
and prosperity, Ind when in the Chicago
convention this honorable gentleman
(McKinley) put aside the tempting
and brilliant chance to be presi-
dent and ruler of 6O,O0O,OOO of people.
saying in substance:
81 cannot accept the nomination with
out violating my own respect and in abuse
of my sense of personal loyalty and
friendship TO Mr.. Sherman. He fixed
public opinion as to his lofty character
and shed glory around American citizen
ship. Differ as we may on party ques-
tions we share national pride in him,
which is, irrespective of party affiliation,
the same which we DO not hesitate to avow
of such men as Lincoln and Grant and
Conkling and other kingly men who have
illustrated the dignity and glory of Ameri-
can manhood,

impulse to fly from any possible further
danger. But this was soon overcome, and
hundreds began to work recovering the

A BIG STEAL.
A Slick Thief Gets Away With Ten
Thousand Dollar Package.

A Slick Thief Gets Away With Ten
Thousand Dollar Package.
New YORK, August 23.-Detectives and
three postof1ice officials are engaged earn
estly at work on an endeavor to run down
the thief who stole the registered package
of $4,000 in money, while it was being
Transported from Portland, Oregon, to the
Chemical National bank, of this city. The
otolen money was contained in q
pouch with fifty-eight others
and its loss was only discovered when the
pouch was regularly opened in the regis
tered letter department OF New Hork'f
postofice on Friday last.
Since then the work of searching for
the thief has been carried on, and pub
licty of the facts of the theft was only
made yesterday. The source of this IN
formation is as great mystery to Post
master Pearson as the less of the money
It was desirable to keep the matter quiet
until the thief was discoverd. Varlou;
clews are being followed up, and the
progress thus far made is kept secret fol
obvious reasons.
So far as could be learned to-day tht
men engaged in the case have not ye
decided at what point the package weI
abstracted. The fact that the pouci
reached this city unlnjured is conclusive
proof that the robber was in possession o
the key.

FIFTlETH CONGRESS.
SENATE.

WASHINGTON, August 23.-The senate
took up the resolutions reported from the
judiciary committee on July 23 on the
the subject of the suppression of colored

Before Mr.. Wilson had finished his re-
marks Mr.. Pruden, one of the presidents
secretaries, appeared and delivered "a
message in writing" from the president to
the senate. 1t was message relating to
the fisheries, delivered and read in the
house.
Mr.. Wilson, as soon as the message was
announced, yielded to Mr.. Edmunds, who
moved an adjournment.
Mr.. Morgan suggested that the presi-
dents message was important and should
be read.
Mr.. Edmunds remarked it could wait
until tomorrow, and Mr.. Morgan asked
for yea and nay vote on the motion to
adjourn.
The vote resulted-yeas, 23; nays, 20; a
strict party vote-the republicans voting
for adjournment.
So the senate adjourned.
HOUSE,
Mr.. Grain, of Texas, introduced joint
resolution authorizing the president to
veto specific items in appropriation bills.
Referred.
The house then resumed consideration
of the conference report on the army ap-
preparation bill. The report was reject
eds to 81. The house then further in
sisted upon its disagreement to the SEN
ate amendments, and further confer
ence was ordered. The house then went
into committee of the whole on the def
cheney appropriation bills.
The pending point of order against the
Frerch spoliation claims section was sus-
tanned by the chair.
Mr.. Dibble stated he must appeal from
the decision of the chair. Te!lers were
ordered and the vote announced as 65 to
60. Mr.. Dibble made the point of no
quorum, but the vote was suspended to
allow the committee to rise and the
speaker to lay before the house the presi-
dents message relative to the fisheries
question. The reading of the paper was
listened to with profound attention. At
its conclusion the democrats burst into
applause. The speaker referred the docu-
ment to the committee on foreign affairs,
Mr.. McCreary, of Kentucky, asking
unanimous consent to report from that
commit ee on the subject.
Mr. Nelson, of Minnesota, Immediately
offered a bill, which was referred to the
committee on foreign affairs, entitled "An
act to empower the president more eff
fe,tually to carry out the purposes of an
act entitled 'An act to authorize the
president to protect and defend the rights
of American fishing vessels, American
fishermen, American trading aud other
vessels, and for other purposes, approved
March 8, 1887, and to authorize the presi-
dent to protect American interests against
unjust discrimination in the use of canals
in the British dominion of North Am er-
ica.'"
The house then adjourned.

Horror of the Recent Wreck on the Mex

Special Telegram TO the Statesman.
LAREDO, August 22.-Some parties who
were at the scene of the Mexican National
wreck, and aided in clearing the track, it
is learned that the negro fireman, Newton,
was not crushed, but literally burned alive.
When the wreck occurred Newton and
Brown were both at the extreme
bottom, aid Newton was not hurt by the
fall. He was, however, fastened in
the engine cab, with six cars of iron on
top of the debris. The fire almost i'm
mediately ensued, and Newton's cries were
heartrending as he was being slowly
roasted to death. Nothing could be done
for him, and his body, when finally recov-
cred, was found to be badly charred.
Brown was crushed to death and had his
neck broken. His eyes protruded from their
sockets and hung down on his cheeks.
The sight of their MANNED and burned re-
mains was sickening.

DENVER, COL, August 23.-Three men
arrested here, supposed to be counter
feiters, turn out to be confidence men,
and the officers have big joke on their
hands. Their scheme was to sell their
victims compound resembling gold, and
to delude the purchasers. They made
pretense of manufacturing five dollar gold
pieces from it. The die used, however, was
trick box, and genuine gold pieces we're
turned out. The arrested men cannot be
held by the government officials, but will
beSarrested again by state officers.
