SAN ANTONIO, Tex, June 14.-Wm.
Braden, % years old, married, in per-
feet health, with plenty of money and
no marital or business troubles, placed
shooter to his forehead this after
noon and blew out his brain. He was
a son of one of the most prominent
contractors of the city, and had
pleasant hone on Devine street. He
went there at o'clock, spoke jovially
to his young wife, entered his room,
closed the door, took the pistol from
bureau drawer and killed himself. He
wns given to intemperance, but was
perfectly sober at the time and had
been in good humor all day. A
couple of weeks ago he visited the
Bichloride of Gold Institute here and
took some restraining medicine, as it
is called, but did not take the injec-
tion, as he was called out of town as
witness in a criminal trial and de-
tanned some days. His end is one of
the inexplicable self-murders.

he had been poisoned he replied that
he did not know. He was in con-
vulsed state, drawing up his limbs
and becoming rigid. Capt. Bower,
assisted by the neighbors, carried him
to the house. His sufferings were
terrible. He called for a doctor. Capt.
Bower came to town after medical
aid, which he procured, but before
he got back the stricken
man was dead, having
died in thirty minutes after the first
attack. The doctor on arriving at
the scene examined the dead man and
questioned the spectators of his death
as to his sufferings and believed it to
be case of stry chnine poisoning. A
postmortem examination was ordered
which was concluded this evening,
but the physician conducting same

The stomach and contents will be

County Convention Held and the st. Louis
Platform Indorsed- Nominations.
Special to The Statesman.
JOHNSON CITY, Tex, June l3.-The
Peoples party nominated a full county
ticket at this place on last Saturday.
The convention had eighty-nine votes,
and very nearly that many delegates
attended. Blanco's delegation furn-
ished one negro and one Mexican del
egate. The negro and Mexican looked
lonesome, yet they occupied conspicu-
GUS places in the convention, and
seemed to be well cared for. This
party has by it's action in this matter
removed the barrier from be-
tween the two races, and take
the step towards placing the
races on an equality, or equal
footing. They succeeded in nominat-
ing most all the officers from near the
town of Blanco.
WI Crider who went before the
Democratic convention and was de-
feated for county attorney, was taken
up NY bu0 lnlIu parry anu uOlniuuuou
for that office. Two votes were also
cast for the Democratic nominee for
assessor. They claimed to supportno
man who did not stand fairly and
squarely on their platform, but the
popularity of Mr.. Peery, the Demo-
cratic nominee, was so great that it
was with difficulty that they nomi-
mated man against him.
The Democrats are increasing some
since the negroes and Mexicans are
being admitted as delegates, as many
Third partyites say that they cannot
stomach 80 large dose. They
made 3 fruitless effort
towards denying the twelfth plank of
the st. Louis platform, that is causing
the loss of many Of the Peoples party
followers, as that plank has been so
conclusively proven up, that 1t is now
beyond question to successfully deny
1t.
Many old ex-confederates say that
they can not swallow such wads Of
corruption as that and before Novem-
ber 1t will have told the sVrrowful
tale, and desertions will have been
many and the Peoples party in this
county sad and miserable failure.
Crops are not In as flourishing con-
dition as heretofore, and rain is being
needed badly.

one of the representatives from this
district against Clarence Martin, who

You know the Republicans have no

all vote for Antony, as Barber is a

letter. Mr.. Zadek also denied having
written it, and has given it to the

denial. The Third party leaders
claim it was written by the Demo-

the TRADE made by Mr.. Antony
against the negroes in recent speech
here, in which he referred to how
they would smell in a mixed conven-
tion with the white Third party men
