NEW YORK ANTI-sNAPPERs.
They Declare That the Hatchet is Buried
Against Tammany for the Campaign.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-The Herald
says the anti-Snappers through ex-
Mayor Grace have promised Mr.. Cleve-
land that they will not aid or abet any
move or proposition against Tammany
hall in this campaign. Mr.. Cleveland
when he went back to Gray Gables af-
ter the notification demonstration car
ried the foregoing pledge with him.
He saw Mr.. Grace on Friday, the day
he started for Buzzard's bay, and told
him that the constan6 agitation of the
question of an independent or anti
Tammauy ticket was disturbing the
harmony of the party, not only in
New York state, but all over the coun-
try, ana was making the outlook
doubtful. Mr.. Grace then told Mr..
Cleveland that there would be no in
reference with Tammany. The ques-
ton of anti-Snappers figuring as dis
turbing element, therefore, is believed
by Democrats to be absolutely settled.

Carnegie People Talk Confidently.
HOMESTEAD, Aug, 9.-The Carnegie
company seems to have checked the
desertions of non-union men which
began at such lively rate yesterday
morning as to threaten to depopulate
the mill in q week. No further de-
serters are reported this morning and
several of those who left Saturday
night returned today. The firm
claims that no incon venience has re-
suited from the leaving of the men
yesterday and that the mill is oper-
ating as smoothly as before. The
number of applications for positions
from old men, according to mill Off
cials, continues to increase, but they
said they were afraid to report at this
time. On the other hand the leaders
of the locked-out men are working the
desertion for all they are worth as an
offset to Duquesne, and to such effect
that people here seem to have forgot

Tennessee Democratic Convention.

NASHVILLE, Aug. 9.-The State
Democratic convention met at noon
today. Practically there will be
nothing to do except to nominate
Judge Peter 1urney, the only Demo.
cratic candidate, for governor, thereby
ratifying the action taken in their
primaries during the recent months.
Governor Buchanan, AIliance-De mo-
crat, withdrew his name from con-
sideration by this convention several
days ago, it being evident that Tur-
ney had secured a majority of the
votes at the primaries. 1t is thought
some absent delegates are opposed to
Turney and will not support him if
Governor Buchanan will run as inde-
pendent. The convention elected E.
l.. Bullock temporary chairman and
Geo. w. Ochs secretary. Committees
were appointed and the convention
adjourned until $3.50 p. m.

ten the upper mill altogether, and
today are bending new energies to
instil dissatisfaction among the nom
unionists confined in the mill. To
that end workers who leave the mill
are treated royalty and sent
back in condition to glowingly
depict the hospitality of Homestead
and the impropriety of taking their
places. The success OF the relief COM
mittee, which has gone east, has
proved very gratifying to the men
here. A dispatch fiom Duquesne
this morning states that the mill is
working smoothly and goes on double
time at once. Several workers there
tried to extract promise yesterday
from the men that they would refuse
to work material for the Homestead
steel workers, but the effort did not
give encouraging assurances and it is
probable that they are too badly
beaten to rebel against any material
reason.

in favor of the contestant, John f.
Dawson. The tract was the one
settled on by Captain Crouch, and it
was on this that Captain Crouch was
shot by j. Adams, whose trial is still
pending. The ground has since been
contested by several people, and in
addition has twice been jumped and
settled upon by people claiming it as
a town site. The tract is very valu-
able, being in the best portion of Okla.

great tribes are now combined into
forces against sthe ameer, who is COL

the rebellion. In addition to 10000
regular troops and an equal force of ir-
regulars the ameer is trying to raise
further levies by holding out to royal
tribesmen promises of great reward if
he gets their assistance. Among
other things the ameer holds out a
prospect that in the event of the sub

will be divided between the tribesmen

New YORK, Aug. 9.--Warsaw cables
say that a governess named Matuseck
employed in the family of a high Rus
sian official entered a cafe in that city
yesterday and approached the table
where two officers were sitting, and
drawing revolver from the folds of
her gown shot one of the men, Lieut.
enant Golowas, through the heart.
Before any one could interfere she
drew a knife and plunged it into the
breast of the other officer, Captain
Mutelink, inflicting a mortal wound.
When arrested the murderess calmly
declared that she had committed the
act in revenge for aspersions cast upon
her honor by the officers.

A good rain fell here yesterday even

Yesterday afternoons rain was ac-

blew down the Methodist tent, now

Two Young Ladies Assaulted at Night in
Their Rooms at Brennan,
Special to The Statesman.
BRENNAN, Aug. GA bout ten days
ago Miss Nealy Guyton was aroused
from sleep to find man standing over
her. At 2 o'clock this morning Miss
Matte Turner, who lives in another
part of the city, awoke suddenly and
there was man leaning over her bed.
She screamed and the man caught
her by the throat and choked her.
She fought and screamed until the
household and the whole neighbor-
hood was aroused. Her assailant,
afraid he would be captured and being
unable to silence the young lady's
cries rushed out of the house and
made good his escape. Miss Turner
is a niece of VIM. AXer, manager of
the McFadden compress here and
lives with his family. The burglar is
thought to be the same party who
assaulted Miss Guyton. He is de-
scribed by Miss Turner as medium
size man, wearing derby hat set
back on his head. He is either white
or a bright mulatto. The citizens are
wrought up to a high pitch of excite
ment. The officers are working on
the case, and if a capture is made the
culprit, if the right man, will receive
justice at the hands of mob. The
object of the burglar was evidently a
more heinious one than robbery, for a
jewel case, gold watch and other val
uables were lying in plain view on the
bureau in Miss Turner's room, and
they were not disturbed.

WACO, Tex, Aug. "a few days
since a man giving his name as S. A.
King and claiming to be representa-

cashier of the Waco State Bank to
have check for $3.50 cashed. He
showed credentials from officers of the
Columbian exposition, to which was
attached his photograph. He showed
a letter of credit for $500 purportlng
to have been issued by the Columbian
exposition. 1t was literally en-
dorsed by banks and
showed to have been used to secure
funds to the amount of $3.50, as most
of the technical points had been COM

The draft reached Chicago, and upon

WEATHER AND CROPS.
WEEKLY REPORT OF THE TEXAS STATE
WEATHER SERVICE.
Excessive Rainfall Over Many Portions Of
the State Gotten Doing We'll and Pres
poets are Flattering for Heavy
Crop-Crops Generally Good.

GALVESTON, Aug. 9.-The weekly
weather and crop bulletin of the Texas
state weather service, was issued to-
night for the week ending Aug. s. 1t
is as follows:
Weather and temperature-Heavy
rains have fallen during the past
week over the eastern portion of
Southwestern Texas and the extreme
eastern portion of the coast district
exceeding the normal amount for the
week by over 100 per cent. Over the
central portion of the coast and the
Southwest portion of Central Texas
good showers have fallen generally
and these have in many localities
amounted to the normal, while over
other portions of the state no rain
worthy of mention has fallen during
the week except some scattered
showers.
Cutton-Taken as a whole the cot
ton crop is doing we'll and the pros
pects for heavy crop are unusually
flattering. Cotton is shedding for
want of rain over parts of North Texas
and the extreme western portion of
Central Texas where there has been
very little rain and in some sections
none since the week ending June 81.
Most sections where the drouth is on,
report that if rain falls within the
next few days it will probably check
shedding. Over East Texas a few
counties report that rain would be
beneficial but there is very
little complaint of drouth. 1t
is not believed that much
damage will result from the drouth in
any section. Heavy rains have been
injurious TO cotton in some of the
southwest counties and also over the
extreme eastern portions of the coast
district, where it has been excessive.
| Worms are reported i'll localities from
Hays, Guadalupe, Victoria, jackson,
| Colorado and several of the adjoining
| counties, but there are no complaints
of worms from other sections of the
state.
Other crops-The small grain crop
| is nearly all in the bins. The absence
of rain over western and northwest
ern portions of the state during July
was unusually favorable for saving
these crops. The sugar cane crop is
growing rapidly and is generally re-
ported as very promising, Other
crops are reported as doing well.
