HARTLEY.

Great Push 10 Secure Iand-An Assured
Future-RsilrOad P. ople FuyIng Lots.
Correspondence of the Gazette
HARTLEY, TEX, March l5.-Tha
boom in the Panhandle country has been
q continual surprise and nowhere more
than at Hartley. The last good school
land left to be taken on the line of the
Fort Worth and Denver was known TO be
IN Hartley county. The knowing ones
counted that the rush for this would
commence in April, but the last days of
February saw seekers after school land
and purchasers after town lots coming
in, AM they have been coming faster
every day since. The anxiety of people
to secure land is shown by the fact that
two men rode from Texline TO Hartley on
q hand car and located two sections this
week.
There can be no doubt now that Hart
ley is to be the city of the north plains.
The territory tributary to it is so large
and its railroad prospects so certain that
its future is assured.
The GAZETTE, with its usual enterprise,
was first to notice the chartering of the
Omaha and Southwest railroad by
Orson Adams and other New York capt.
talists for the purpose of uniting the
several lines of the great Union Pacific
system and giving Fort Worth another
connection with the cities of the North
and East
a significant fact has been noted lately
in the mysterious purchase Of whole
blocks of desirable lots which when the
papers were made up were found to have
gone TO prominent railroad men.
With its fine water, rich soil and I'M
equaled climate this country must soon
be occupied by thousands of happy and
prosperous people.

SILENCE AS A NEGATIVE VOTE.


The idea that silence could be stronger
Inan negative vote seemed to have been
unknown 70 our ancestors. 1t seemed to be
modern parliamentary fiction which had
never been able to stand the decision of
court where business questions were in
VOWED. He had never seen decision of a
court which was adverse to the
position now assumed by the
house. The only question remaining
was one of detail-by what
method should the presence of a quorum be
ascertained. An examination of all the
books on parliamentary practice would
snow that 1t had been the practice from
tlme lmmemorial for the presiding officer
10 determine, in such manner as he deems
accurate and suitable, the presence of a
quorum. The rules of the House contain
nothing derogatory. If it was sug-
geSted that any evil would follow the
answer was simple. Whatever officer was
lntrusted with the count was liable to some
objection, and public business proceeded
upon the assumption of the right perform
ance ace of public duty by public officer.
moreover, the House could easily correct
a mistake by ordering the yeas and nays
In conclusion the speaker said: "In this
case the chair repeatedly counted the House
during the vote. and after it closed: and
being satisfied that constitutional quorum
was present to do business, therefore, an
nounces that the yeas are ia and the nays
., and that the motion has been seconded.
THE FAIR MATTER TO BE PUSHED.
Mr.. Gambler of Massachusetts immedi-
ately took the floor, and in few words
announced his satisfaction at the conclusion
OF the committees work, and hoped that its
report would be given the immediate con-
slderation the people of the country de-
manded
Mr.. Flower of New York recalled that he
had promised a fair and complete report
from the fair committee, and said that it
was now ready for the House.
Mr.. Hit Of Illinois said he had urged
speedy action all along and urged it upon
the House now. Wherever the fair was to
be held the people were determined that it
should be a success and a credit to the
country.
Messrs. Hatch and Wilson declined to
speak, preferring speedy vote.
The question was taken on the motion to
suspend the rules and make a special order
for fair bills, and resulted yeas l4S, nays q.
More than two-thirds voted in the affirma-
tive, but Mr. Blount demanded the yeas and
nays. They were ordered and resulted yeas
2O2 nays 56, and the special order was made

noticed that it was stated in the public
prints that he was destroying the chance Of
passing the bill by occupying so much time
in his remarks. But he gave notice to
those uneasy correspondents, and 10 the
newspapers generally, that he knew better
than to submit casa to a jury until he had
all the evidence in; and then, if there was
a wrong verdict, the responsibility would
be one of the jury.
Having been interrupted by Mr. Coke in
some remarks bearing on the state of Texas,
MIR. Blair went on to say that he expected
MeSSrs. Coke and Reagan TO oppose the
bill In fact, he expected a great many
southern senators, whose power was built
on the aristocracy that owned the
land and labor in the south be-
fore the war, TO oppose it. But he
warned thom that revolutions did not
go backward aud that the children of the
country, north and south alike, were going
to be educated. Education would DO the
entering wedge to the establishment of
new order of things even in Texas
TEXAS GOOD TO HER CHILDREN.
Mr.. Coke said that the state of Texas
spent two or three times as much money
for education as any other state in the south,
and there were very few northern states
that spent more. Texas had school sys-
tenn which would compare fayorabIy with

school education.
Mr.. Blair-Then why is Texas opposed TO

part Of the Senate to hear what | am say
ing, ought to proceed; but if the senator
wishes to answer my question l will GER
tainly yield; if not, will go on.
Mr.. Blair occupied about three hours, but
did not close his argument.
The House amendment to the bill, to have
statistics Of mortgage Indebtedness OBJ
tatned in the next census, was non
concurred in, and a conference was asked.
Messrs. Hale, Davis and Berry were APP
pointed conferees on the part of the Senate.
The Senate then adjourned.

Mr.. Plummer added: 81 consider this to
mean that the senator's will vote for
the worlds fair bill, and out Of this turmoil
peace and harmony will come, and we will
go to Washington and demand our rights. u
Mr.. Depew advanced to the front of the
platform and said: "All our differences
are now settled. All difficulties are now
removed. Three cheers for Thomas c.
Platt"
The effect of Mr.. Depew's resolution is as
follows There shall be made an amend
ment to the worlds fair bill, that no con-
tracts will be let. no sums of money ex-
pended, no appointments made and no
committees appointed except by the vote of
two thirds of all the appointees of the bill. u
AT the conclusion of the meeting Mr.. Starin
moved vote of thanks to the presiding
officers and committees of the mass meeting
and the audience dispersed, cheering as it
went for Messrs. Depew, Miller, Starin and
Plummer. A wonderful revulsion of feel
ing concerning Thomas c. Platt was ap-
parent.

ACHARLESTON TRAGEDY.
B. FELDMANN AND MRS. LAVAL
SHOT By HER HUSBAND.

Her Death Expected During the
Night, but Feldmann's Recovery
Possible-The Woman's Failure to
Live With Her Husband the Cause
of the Shooting-No Scandal in the
Affair.
CHARLESTON, S. c., Feb. 17.-The whole
city was shocked tonight by a double
tragedy. The firm of B. Feldmann s. Co..
on King street, is one of the best known
grocery firms in the city. Mr. Feldmann is
about 55 years of age and is married to the
sister of his junior partner, Robert Tesky.
A younger sister of Mr.. Tesky married a
man named Napoleon Laval several years
ago. Laval and his wife did not get along
very we'll together, and eight or ten months
ago Laval, who is carpenter by trade. left
the city. His wife lived with her sister,
Mrs. Feldmann.
LAVAL SHOOTS HIS WIFE
Recently Laval returned to the CITY, He
says he wrote several letters to his wife
asking her TO return to him, but failed to
receive any reply. Tonight he called at
Mr.. Feldmann's and rang the bell at the
door adjoining the store. Laval's wife
came down to answer the bell and he shot
her, nFlnB Two SHOTS from pistol that he
had on his person. The people in the store
ran out with Mr.. Feldmann in the lead.
When they reached the alleyway leading to
the second floor of the building, they found
Mrs. Laval lying In a pool Of blood,
FELDMANN SHOT.
Without saying word Laval turned his
pistol on MIR. Feldmann and shot him, the
ball entering his left breast. BY this time
a crowd had gathered and Laval was over
powered and sent TO the police station. He
was seen by the News correspondent later
In the night and asked what prompted the
shooting. He replied that he had no motive.
but that he was glad he had killed Field
mann.
Mr.. Feldmann and Mrs. Laval are In a
critical condition. The woman cannot live
till morning, but Mr. Feldmann may re-
cover The tragedy has created a great
sensation, as all the parties are well known
IN the city There is not breath of sus-
pioion OF scandal Mrs. Laval had lived
with Mrs. Feldmann nearly all of her life.
