man and Franklin appeared before

supervisors, aud Mayor Caiiaghau aud
MIR. William Aubrey, attorney for the
receivers of the San Antonio and Aransas
Pass railroad, argued against the action
ordered by Judge Pardee. Judge Maxey
listened patiently TO the arguments OF
the lawyers pro and con, and then an
nOunced his determination to appoint the
supervisorship.
This action is taken with the special
view of regulating elections In this city
next Tuesday. There is no Disgusting
the fact that in every close local elec-
ton, such as Is at presen. agitating the
people of San Antonio, large nu bers OF

watched very closely next Tuesday by
the opposition 10 what is known as the
independent ticket, with the Hon. w i.
w. King at its head as the candidate for
judge of the Forty fifth district, to
which tribunal the present receivers OF
the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass com
/ pany owe their positions, aud it would
not be surprising if trouble of q more or
/ less serious nature should occur. Each
side accuses the other of having herded
| great herds of Mexicans in and around
| the city with the intention OF voting
them, and the Federal supervisor will

tions point strongly to the election of
Yantis.
