TAIN OF ELECTION.
Mr.. Chiffon Writes Letter to the Caucus,
Giving Some Excellent Reasons Why
He Should Withdraw From
the Hopeless Contest.

The Chiffon caucus held Its last
meeting last night. 1t was gloomy
and respondent and well it might be,
for each member could plainly see
that their candidate was in to lose.
The overwhelming vote of the Travis
primaries was the last straw, and all
the supporters of the young senator
appointee were relieved when the fol-
lowing letter was read:
AUSTIN, March 81, 1892.
Hon. J. G. Kearby, Chairman Chiffon caucus
When the Governor of Texas in last
April rendered me the appointment
as senator, accepted the high dis
tinction in the hope that | would find
in the prospect which it opened a field
of effort where / might do some serv-
ice for the people of Texas among
whom was born. Since that time i
have sought to perform my full duty to
those whom represented; first by re-
spending to such invitations of my fell
low citizens as indicated necessity for
political discussion throughout the
state and since the assembling of con-
gress by constant attendance upon
the proceedings. The meeting OF the
legislature of Texas imposes upon that.
body the constitutional duty of select
ing my successor, and my candidacy
for the place has been well known for
some time. Many members of the
Legislature have given me as
surance of support in the con-
test which has now come to
crisis, but upon my arrival here
some three days ago l found that
q number of my friends thus situated
felt that their freedom of action had
been abridged by meetings in their
districts favorable to other gentlemen.
and that / would lose their votes upon
ballot. I found in addition that
others were to some extent hampered
by expressions from their constituents
which, though lacking authority, were
not without influence. The senators
and representatives who occupy this
position have stated to me with
generous fidelity their purpose to
vote for me upon the roll
call tomorrow but find that my to-
tai vote with their help will not be
enough to elect. This forces upon me
the responsibility of deciding whether
shall pursue an Intellectual struggle
and thereby involve some of my
friends in possible controversy with
home influences or relieve them of
embarrassment by withdrawing from
the contest before vote Is
taken. / would much prefer to
pursue the matter to its logical con-
clusion by final vote and feel strong
repugnancy to withdrawal but as the
result must be the same / am not
willing to persist In putting upon
those whose friendship has been SO
unselfishly offered, chance be-
tween the alternatives 1 have men,
toned. Therefore write to withdraw
my name from the contest. In taking
the step desire to tender to you and
my other friends the strongest pledges
of my gratitude and to say to one and
all that your affection and confidence
have laid their impress upon my heart
forever. HORACE Chiffon.

In the science of medicine, as in
chemistry and physics, a result once
attained is attained forever, and the
record, if accurate, will be found
equally applicable to all future mani
festations of the same result or event.
Certain results have been obtained
in hundreds of cases from the use OF
Mansfeld's Magic Arnica Liniment,
and what it has done over and over
again in such a variety of cases with
so many individuals, it will do again.
1t relieves pain no matter in what
part of the body if exteriorly mani
tested, and it stops suffering as quick
ly in an animal as in mar. Such
nervous affections as neuralgia and
sciatica, and ordinary headache it moi
only relieves but cures, and some O
the worst cases of rheumatism have
yielded to it's treatment, resulting il
complete recovery. If one can only
have one medicinal preparation in the

best capital stock to put into poultry
raising is plenty of common sense and
a similar amount of industry. Every
farmer should raise poultry, out they
should do it right and they will be
paid for their labor and capital as
much in this as in any other depart
ment of farm work. People, also, who
have a ''hankering" for fancy poultry,
can get reasonable pay and plenty of
pleasure from poultry. There are
very few men in this country who
have made a fortune raising or breed
ing fowls. A few have made hand,
some living, but they were the right
men in she right place. The business
of poultry raising would be benefited
by less exaggeration, and more solid
facts being published regarding it. 1t

MURDERED THEIR LEADER.
Mexican Soldiers Kill Their Commander.

Revolutionists.

Mexican Soldiers Kill Their Commander,
Gen. Garcia, and Join the Ranks of tho
Revolutionsts.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec. 3r.-News
was received here late Tuesday night
that Gen. Garcia, in command of tho
troops in the field in the northern zope
had been murdered by his "nmmand
and that the entire force, .abering
several hundred men, under his imme-
diate command, had gone over to the
side of the revolutlonists, crossing over
into Texas in body at a point be-
tween Roma and Carrizo. The news
of the killing of Garcia has been con-
firmed.
Gen. Garcia was one of the most
prominent and efficient officers in the
Mexican army, and his death at the
present time is serious blow to the
government. The private soldiers in
the Mexican army are nearly all con-
victed criminals who, instead of being
given term in prison, are sentenced
to serve with the military. They are
desperate characters and are nearly
all secret sympathizers with the revo-
lutionary movement 1856
LAREDO, Tex, Dec, 3l.-The report
comes to this city that Cara Wednes-
day afternoon captured a detachment
of forty five Mexican troops with their
arms and equipments. The officers,
four in number, were promptly shot
and the men were given the chance tc
go free without arms or to join the
revolutionary forces. They chose the
latter. No official news has been re-
ceived of the occurrence. But if Garzs
had $50 men together, as was acknowl
edged by the official kilograms few
days since, he might easily capture
forty regulars.

AT PEACE WITH ITALY.

Baron Fava Sails for America-Ths
Trouble Growing Out of the Lynchins
at New Orleans Ended by Granting the
Same Justice Which Is Now Demanded
from Chilli.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-Word has been
received here that Baron Fava has
sailed from Rome for Washington to re-
sumo his post as minister from
Italy to the United States The
Marquis Imperiali is in charge
of the legation here, as he has
been since the recall of Fava. The
baron's name is still borne on the rolls
of the state department as the Italian
minister. The return of Fava to his old
post confirms the news that the United
States has agreed to pay small'i in
demnity in money to the families of the
two italian citizens lynched at New Or
leans. This restores the entente cor
dale between the two countries and
the diplomatic incident is closed. 1t
will be noticed that the settlement in
this case has been made on the part of
the United States by performance of
the same acts OF justice and reparation
which this country is now demanding
of Chilli, and the prospects now are
that within two or three weeks the
Chilian incident will be closed in the
same manner

WILL APOLOGIZE.

The Chilian Government, 1t IL Said, Has
Ordered Minister Montt to Express It's
Regret for the Baltimore Outrages.
VALPARAISO, Jan. Sit is said hero
that the Chilian government has cabled
orders to Minister Pedro Montt at
Washington to make sincere apology,
to the United States for the unfortu-
nate and deplorable attack upon the
Baltimore sailors October 16 last. The
apology is unqualified in its char
acter, it is added. Other matters
which have been in dispute between
Chill and the United States are to be
speedily considered by the new ad-
ministration. From semi-otficial sources
it is reported that the reason the San
tiago police are kept in the vicinity of
the American legation is that the in
tendente of the city is in constant
receipt of letters containing threats
to burn and sack the legation. 1t is
said on the best authority that the gov
ernment desires to have the police near
at hand so as to prevent the execution
of any such threats. 1t is no secret
here that many of those who cherish
ideas of war between the United States
and Chilli are friends of Balmaceda.

Forcing Them to Flee.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Jan. There is
much excitement in military depart
ment headquarters and among the peo-
pie of this city over the serious
situation on the border. FL. ]. Mac
Neil, of this city, Saturday evening
received telegram from his father,
Capt. ]. S. MacNeil, of the
Texas rangers, which states that he
had just had desperate encounter
with the Cara men. His command
numbered only few men. They were
scouting through chaparral in Starr
county when they met a detachment
of about thirty Garza revolutionists.
The rangers at once opened fire on
the revolutionists and number of the
latter were severely wounded. Nearly
1000 shots We're exchanged, but none of
the rangers were wounded. The tele-
gram states that the revolu-
tionists We're all well armed
and we'll mounted They were closely
pursed by the rangers for consider
able distance, but finally scattered and
all escaped capture except a few of
those severely wounded.
1t is reported from Laredo that five
Texas rangers were killed Friday in a
fight with the revolutionists.
SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Jan. A dis
patch to government headquarters re-
ports that on Saturday Second Lieut..
Langhorne of the Third cavalry, with
thirty regulars and a posse of deputy
marshals, struck one of the Garza bands
and an engagement followed. The ban
dts were found 5 miles above Rio
Grande City and many shots were in
terchanged and some MeXicans wound
ed and some of the United States
soldiers were hurt Col. Pablo
Munoz was captured. Two gross
of cartridges and many revolu-
tionary badges were taken.
The Mexican government has offered
reward of $780, 900 for Garza's head
but they will hardly get him. So fal
the Mexicans have killed over hun
dred men on suspicion of being revolu

Terrible Explosion of Dyn Mantle at wa~

MILWAUKEE, Dec. S1.-A dynamite
explosion of terrific violence occurred
Wednesday morning ut the Schoon-
maker stone quarry near Wauwatosa,
killing two men and seriously in
juring a third. The men killed
were william Walter, SO years of
age and married, and Albert
Walter, an unmarried man % years
old. Their bodies were literally blown
to atoms, and the few fragments that
the .quarrymen found were placed in
basket A laborer named John
Rogalsby was quite badly hurt, but it
is thought that he will recover.
The explosion occurred at 7:25 o'clock
and was so violent that the shock was
felt at Racine, % miles south of this
city. The men were preparing blast

noon, and were thawing out the
''forcite," of which there was
900 pounds. No one knows how the
explosion occurred. There was ter
rife report, and when the smoke
cleared away both the Walters had
disappeared. They had thawed out
$50 pounds of the dynamite and that
exploded, but the unthawed boxes
did not explode. Down below the
ledge, and not more than 50 feet away,
eighteen men were at work, but not
one al them was hurt. On the spot
where the men had stood q

The enormous force of the explosion
is shown by the fact that fragment
of one of the mems heads was found at
a distance of fully 1000 feet across the

of clothing and glove there was
nothing that could be identified as hav-

The explosion was the subject of
much conversation among the officials
at the courthouse. City Engineer Ben

less in handling explosives. AT the

found the men growing so careless
that he made the contractors dis

CHICAGO, Dec. 3l.-Thomas Greif
has finally carried out his threat by
SUNG Capt. John L. Mahoney and
Inspector Lyman III. Lewis in
the circuit court Wednesday for
$4,000 damages in an action for
trespass. Mr.. Solomon appears as
the attorney for Greif. The suit is
based on the raid the police made on
Greif's hall on Lake street in searching
for anarchists. In the excitement
doors were forcibly opened and flags
and other property destroyed.
Superintendent of Police McClaughry
has recently paid for the damage
done by his officers, but this evidently
does not satisfy the proprietor of the
hall. Mr.. Greif takes the legal posi-
ton that the police interference was
malicious and without warrant He
claims that they not alone entered the
place without authority, but that the
trespass resulted in the death of his
daughter, who was lying in bed serious
