Criminal practice.

Colonel Percy Yerger is one of the most
popular criminal lawyers in Austin. He
has an immense criminal practice and
usually succeeds, with slight assistance
from the jury, in acquitting his clients, no
matter how atrocious their crime or over
whelming the evidence of their guilt Last
Sunday Colonel Yerger's little boy, Tommy,
was asked by his Sunday school teacher:

THE WHITE SQUADRON.

Many Thousands View the Evolu-
tions and Naval Drill in New York
Harbor.
NEW YORK, July 23.-The evolutions of
the White squadron and naval drill was
viewed by interested thousands this after
noon and evening. To begin with, the
New York chamber of commerce paid its
respects to the officers of the squadron
through committee which visited the flag
ship Chicago, and was received by Rear Ad-
miral Walker and his staff. Then at $50
the flagship sent up the signal to arm and
equip. A cutter brought the boats of the
Minnesota manned and equipped, and
these with the others divided into columns
and went through a series of more or less
intricate evolutions and manipulations,
all going to show the discipline of the
marines and the manner of controlling
them from one commanding point. Later,
as night settled down and the river and sur
roundings were shrouded in darkness, an
exhibition of the utility and power of the
search was given. e.:

TIE CoNTRAor LABOR Law.

A Company I'm st. Louis wrftesto th,
Treasury Department at Washing
ION I'm Regard to the Employment
Of skilled Laborers I'm Their Mills.
WASHINGTON, July 23.-A stamping
company Of st. Louis recently wrote te
the treasury in regard to the importation
of skilled labor for their tin plate mills and
inquired if they must go through any par.
ticular form to secure the Importation Of
laborers for such work. In reply Mr..
Owen, superintendent of immigration,
wrote:
'eThe contract labor law was enacted to
protect the wage-earners of this country.
They were suffering from the incursions
of laborers who had entered into contract
abroad and were imported here to do work
at rate cheaper than was paid American
work. Such immigrants came with surety
of employment and displaced citizens who
must 60 idle or accept the hire set
by the new conner. These imported con-
tract laborers, from the dagos on the rail-
road to the glassblowers of Pennsylvania,
came at reduced wage and lowered the
ShoAA0 <AAAOilVah SCdlO VI WdkOb. 4ho aoN
immigration law recognized the value of
the existing contract labor law, and made
valuable amendments to it. This depart
ment will labor earnestly to enforce that
law. Congress did not intend by this en-
aetment to forbid new enterprises, nor to
limit enterprise to American skill. The
law plainly intends that skilled labor
may be imported into the United
States to do work in an industry not
yet established, provided skilled workmen
in that industry cannot be found among
our own people. The discussion in con-
nection with recent legislation disclosed
the fact that the manufacture of tin plate
is not an established industry in the United
States and that we have but few laborers
skilled in it's manufacture. Skilled tin
plate workers may, therefore, be imported
into the United States at this time under
contracts made abroad to follow that en-
ployment. When the present conditions
change and the tin plate industry becomes
established, or when there shall be found
a sufficient number of skilled tin plate
workers to carry on it's manufacture with
a reasonable degree of business facility,
then the importation of such workmen
will be in violation of the contract labor
lawn

THE FATAL "YELLOws.,

The Peach Crop VIII be Materially
Peg Lessened Among Orchards Of Kent
County, Maryland.
CHEsTERrowN, Nd, July 23.-The fatal
"yellows" have made their appearance to
an alarming extent among the peach
orchards of Kent county and are spread
ing very fast. In the vicinity of Milling
ton the crop will be cut short 100000
baskets by the blight. The disease is con-
fined principally to the varieties Of peaches
known as Mount Rose, Troths, Mixons and
McCollister's Late. Galena is being
ravaged by the scourge. Some
large orchards have been almost
swept out of existence by the scourge and
will be taken up this fall. Acres of trees
have been taken out and many more will
be uprooted and burned. Some farmers
have picked peaches to-day that ought not
to be picked before the last of August.
The crop in Kent county, it is estimated,
will be cut short over half by prematuring.
In Still Pond Neck, the great peach center,
the scourge is also doing havoc and only a
small part of the promise at the beginning
| of the season will be realized.

As1G RAILROAD PURCHASE.

1 The Entire System OF Detroit stree
Railways Purchased by a syndfcat,
I'm which mr.. 8. Harrison Wayne,
ofThis City L. Inferested-what mr.
Wagner says About the Deal.
| The following dispatch, which is of con
siderable local interest, was received las
evening:
DETROIT, Mich, July s3.-The whole system o.
the Detroit street railways, over eighty miles IL
length, has to-day been purchased by waller
Cook Wagner, representatives OF New Yori
| In Detroit.
Mr.. S. Harrison Wagner, one of the
members of the firm mentioned in the
above dispatch, was seen by q COURIER re-
porter at his home on Pearl street last eve
ming, and when spoken to in reference to
the gigantic deal, spoke briefly as follows:
I can hardly tell you any more about the
matter than is contained in the dispatch,
IS have not personally been engaged in
the negotiations for over a month. The
deal has been brought about mainly
through the fundamentally of Nessrs.
Waller and Cook, both of whom are in the
west. The negotiations have been in
progress about three months. AS I under
stood the matter the price to be paid for
the roads was to be s., 900, 900, but it is
more than probable that the extra s., 000,-
900 will be used to equip the roads either
with electricity or some other motive power.
The roads now operate eighty miles of road
and use 2, 800 horses and are owned by
several corporations. am not in a po-
sition to give the names of the parties COM
fha ~,
chased the road, but will state that my
own firm is interested in the deal and the
other members of the syndicate are COM
posed of Boston and New York capitalists.
The syndicate Is the same as that which
bought the roads in Norwich last January.
They have also bought several other roads,
the names of which have not as vet
been made public. The recent strikes on
the various roads of Detroit have
caused no end of trouble and the syndicate
doubtless took advantage of this fact to
purchase the road. The roads have been
mainly owned by Canadian corporations
having few stockholders and in conse-
quence not very popular. 1t will probably
be the policy of the new owners to pop1-
larize the road by distributing some of the
stock among the citizens of Detroit.
Messrs. Waller, Cook and F. n. Kelly of
this city are now in the west in relation to
the matter.
The charter of the roads has some seven
teen or eighteen years to run and an eff
fort has been made to have it extended,
but the mayor vetoed the bill. This is
possible in Michigan, as in that state the
city grants the charters instead of the leg
islature, as in this state. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that we have not as yet
been able to secure an extension of the
charter we have purchased the road and
will trust to getting an extension hereaf-
ter, as We are of the opinion that the city
will stand by us. 1t has not yet been
decided what motive power will be used on
the road, but it may be equipped with
electricity, several men from Boston ad-
vocating electric motors are in Detroit at
present in reference to having the roads
adopt that as a motive power.
