A Sensation Near San Antonio.

Special to The Statesman.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. 10.-Chas.
Bywater, "a years old and a son of a
justice of the peace, is in Jail on a
charge of rape. Margarita Valdez, a
beautiful Mexican girl 20 years old
makes the affidavit. Her family is
one of the best known in this section.
They are of old Canary Islands blood
and wealthy. She deposes that she
has known young Bywater for years
and that he has been frequent WISH
tor to the house. Last Saturday he
called at her fathers ranch and invit-
ed her to attend a local entertain
ment.
She got in the buggy and drove
to a neighboring ranch where they
expected to pick up a young lady
friend who was to accompany them.
The family were not at home and By
water, who followed her in, assaulted
her here. She fought and screamed
until exhausted. There was no one
near and the young man accomplished
his purpose. In the neighborhOod
where the event occurred intense eX-
element prevails. Bywater was ar
rested yesterday and hurried to San
Antonio for safe keeping.

Giddings Grist.

Special to The Statesman.
GIDDINGs, Tex, Aug. 10.-The sur
veying outfit arrived here yesterday
morning over the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass railroad with all their
wagons, mules, tents, etc, to begin
the survey from here to the mouth of
the Brazos. Mr.. Human, the sur
veyor, was not with them, but is ex-
pected today. This will give Gid
dings, Rockdale, Cameron and Waco
direct communication with the deep
est water on the Texas coast.
Giddings is fast becoming a rail
road center. This will be three rail-
roads with good prospect for two
others. If a good man with money
wants a good place to start whole
sale house in dry goods or groceries,
Giddings is the place. This is the
best place for an oil mill and also a
fine place for an ice factory.

Destitution in Mexico

Special to The Statesman.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Aug. lI.--Ad-
vices from many points in the state Of
Coahuila and Durango, NeEico, are
condensed into water scarce, poor
crops and no money. In all OF that
portion of the republic good cotton
crop has been made in but one settle
ment, and this is the colony of Fla
hualilo, in which President Diaz
and one Of his eX-ministeIs are per-
sOnally interested. These people have
obtained water from the river Nasias,
thereby depriving the planters Of the
Laguana district and then hundreds
of dependents. A riot has been mar
rowly arrested. Corn in Durango is
selling at about $3.50 per yenega of
1858 pounds. A deputatiop of citizons
recently visited the City Of Mexico to
induce the government to remove the
duty on American corn but met with
no success. Many of the poorer
classes of Durango are destitute and
their needs have converted them into
very dangerous characters

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 1O.-The Jour
nal this afternoon prints sensation
in Alliance circles. j. d. Wynne, the
business agent of the Georgia State
Alliance Exchange, is over 10000
short in his accounts. The directors
appointed w. A. BroughtOn, treasurer
Of the Exchange, to examine the books
and the shortage was discovered. The
bondsmen will meet this afternoon to
arrange to pay all shortages. The EX-
change claims the shortage is an out
and out defalcation. Wynne makes a
statement to the effect that the short
age is due to clerical error and the
loss of some vouchers.

TROUBLE AMONG RAILROADERs.
The Western Traffic and the Western Pass
enger Associations Squabbling.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Aug. 10.-One Of the
subjects to be considered by commits
sioners of the Western Traffic Associ-
alton at their meeting this week, in
wolves the question of appeals to that
body from the Western Passenger
Association. Chairman Finley ruled
last week that there could be no ap-
peal from the Western Passenger
Association to the Western Traffic
Association, in the case of notice to
meet the rates of an outside line, the
reason being that, member of
the former if he was not member of
the latter organization he would be
placed at great disadvantage if such a
procedure were allowed. The Rock
Island took exception to this ruling
and will argue the matter before the
commissioners, contending that the
Western Passenger Association is an
auxiliary part Of the Western Traffic
Association, and therefore subject to
it's rules and regulations. There is
some speculation as to whether or not
this dispute will drive the Chicago,
st. Paul and Kansas City road out of
the Western Passenger Association
or force it to join the Western Traffic
Association.

A NEGRO ATTEMPTING OUTRAGE SHOT
BY A PLUCKY WOMAN
After She Had Accidentally Shot Herself IN
the Thigh While Cooking the
Pistol, She Rides to Jail with
the Corpse.

GALVESTON, Tex, Aug. lO.-Jennie
Anderson alias Mrs. Winters, whlte
woman, shot and killed William
Moseley last night. The shooting oc-
Cured about a. m. at the woman
residence in the southern part Oh the
city. The Anderson woman hau oeeil
TO the beach and returned home Alone
She partially disrobed and was lying
on her bed reading when she was
startled to see negro MAKE
his appearance in her chamber door
way. She sharply demanded what
he wanted and the negro grinned but
made no answer. The woman snatch
cd her revolver from a bureau drawer
and in cooking it accidentally dis
charged it, the ball passing through
the fleshy part of her thigh. At the
report of the pistol and the woman's
screams the negro fled. The woman
leaped from the bed and pursued, fir
ing as she ran. She cornered him in
the kitchen and covering him
with her revolvered commanded
him to halt. In the meantime the
shots and yells of the woman had
aroused the neighbors, who hurried
to the house and on entering found
the negro crouched in corner in the
kitchen with the woman standing
over him with drawn pistol. In a
moment of desperation he unbolted
a door and as he attempted to escape
Jennie Anderson fired. The ball en-
tered the negro's right side, penetrat-
ing the lungs. He reeled and stag
gored few PAGES and fell in the
yard. The police in the meantime had
been telephoned for and came with
the patrol wagon into which thenegro
and woman were placed and rapidly
driven to the police station. On reach
inc there it was found that the negro
had died en- route. The woman's
wound was dressed and she was con-
veyed to the hospital, after charge
Of murder had been entered against

Gus. The negro had effected an en-
trance through a window in front and
his purpose was either murder or out
rage, or perhaps both, as he knew the
woman lived alone. He was about 40
years old and dissolute character.
