party at the residence of w. g. Turner
Friday night.
President T. B. Smith and Secretary

company for Thursday light.
Real estate dealers report business more
active now than for weeks past. There
were nine business lots sold yesterday and
on three of them fine buildings are to be
erected at once.
The Swartz residence has been moved
from the property bought by the city for
the purpose of opening First street, and
after many years of waiting this street
will probably soon be opened.
The rush at the trustee s sale of the
Hartsfield & Roe's stock continues
fact, was so much greater yesterday than
any previous day that they had to employ
three additional statesmen and then could
not wait on all the customers.
THE GAZETTE does not urge men to
give away hOuOJ Out W uAFCob H. LIS
city is what it is to-day by the grace of
its own people, and this road to the
Northwest will be an investment that
will add to the store of those who have
profted by living in Fort Worth.
Look on the eighth page to-day and see
the announcement of Mr.. l.. P. Peck !,
who bought the Bridgeman & Co. furni-
ture stock. he promises unheard-of in
ducements to purchasers when he opens
his sale day after tomorrow. Wait for
him.
OF course, there are schemes and
schemes, but this city never had pre-
sented to it proposition to raise bonus
to secure a railroad better or fairer than
that now in the hands of a soliciting COM
mittee. No railroad, no bonus, are the
terms, and the railroad will be worth all
to Fort Worth that the people are asked
to give. Nearly three-fourths of the
amount has been subscribed and the
balance should be raised before this day s
sun goes down. There is veal or woe in
this emergency for Fort Worth, and our
own people have it in their power to
choose for themselves which it shall be.
And delay is dangerous.

What Mr.. McCloskey Has to Say About Texas
League
J.J b.. McCloskey of Houston, in COM
pany with several other base ball men
were in Fort Worth yesterday, with the
object of stimulating the people here in
the direction of forming q club
to 90 into the Texas league.
Among those with McCloskey was
John T. Magner, at one time
left fielder for the st. Louis Browns, who
has national reputation as one of the
most proficient opponents of the national
game in the world. McCloskey's idea
now is to have Magner stay in Fort Worth
to work up club here and to manage it
when organized, the funds to be raised as
in Houston, Waco and Galveston,
by subscription, donation and sale
of season tickets. McCloskey says
that the news of Dallas having secured
admission into the Southern league rath-
er knocked his plans out, but that San
Antonio viii now be rung into the Texas
league, so that nothing is to be feared
from this late move. He does not think
however, that Dallas will do much play
ing with the Southerners.
Their intention in admitting
Dallas must have been connected with q
hope of inducing Houston and Galveston
to join them, but McCloskey declares
that long as there is a shadow of hope
for league in this state he will have no
connection with the Southern league

The committee appointed at Monday s
meeting to solicit for the bonus to the
Northwestern railroad was hard at work
yesterday and when they stopped their
labors in The evening the sum total of the
subs criptions had only reached S27 ,000.
The co mmitteemen are somewhat dis
couraged and say that where they ex-
pected to get $1,000 or $500 they got moth
ing. Several citizens who own valuable
real estate, who have made their all in this
city declined to contribute, and without

money but they frankly confess that the
prospect is not as bright as it was Mon

coming from the west could gain
anything by going east of Fort
Worth. He says the terminals
in the two cities would cost at
least $500 600 and the right of way a very
large sum. The determination of Fort
Worth to go into no scheme contempla-
