SAM JONES AT GALVESTON
he HAS CAPTURED THE sIN-srRIcKEN
CITY BY THE SEA.
Assembled Thousands Yield to the Magic
influence Of the Great Preacher and
Scramble Over Each Other to
Confess Their Sins.

GALVESTON, Nov. 22.-The interest
in the revival service being held here
under the auspices of Rev. Sam Jones
and Il. w. Stewart is rapidly spread
ing. A service of prayer was held
this morning at s o'clock at the First
Baptist church under the direction of
Mr.. st wart and was largely attend
ed and was marked with much feel
ing. At 10 o'clock Mr.. Jones
delivered a powerful and effective
sermon at the Cotton Press
tabernacle to q large crowd at which
many expressed determination to
lead better life. At O'Clock Mr..
Stewart preached an able and effect
i've sermon at the same place to an
audience of several hundred and
again many pledged themselves to
turn from the error of their ways.
Tonight Sam Jones preached at the
tabernacle. Long before the hour for
the services to begin the immense
cotton press was jammed with living
humanity. Fully 1000 people were
present. No man ever faced such
an audience in Galveston as was as
sembled 10 hear the great evangelist.
the meeting was opened with q mag
nificent choral service of q hundred
voices rendering effectively simple
soul-felt hymns to popular airs which
put the audience In q splendid mood
to be moved and swayed by the mag
netic eloquence of Jones. His sermon
abounded in apt illusions, touching
Incidents, and he played upon the
heartstrings of his great audience In
such masterly and pathetic manner
that they swayed under 1t like
q reed in the wind, and when
he closed with a powerful and
impassioned appeal for all those who
felt the need of Christ and were will
ing to walk in his footsteps hundreds
came forward with streaming eyes
and sobbing voices and gave him their
hands. 1t was an impressive scene
and stamped the evangelist as man
of marvellous power and. magnetism.
His subtle influence seems irresistible.
One moment he antagonizes, the next
placates, then mollfies and wins and
shapes his audience like plastic clay
in the hands of skillful artist. His
work from present indications will be
of widefelt good to this community.

CLEVELAND Is WORRIED.

He Appreciates Letters Of Congratulation
Though too Numerous to Answer, but
Applications for Office Will not be
Considered Until Next March.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-President-
elect Cleveland left town today in
search of rest. Since the election he
has been fairly overrun with callers
and the volume of his correspondence
has been something enormous. G
ing before his departure today with
reporter, Cleveland said: "I fully
appreciate the good and friendliness
which these letters indicate and shall
not omit asGme allows to read every
one of them. These good friends
of course will not expect
replies to their communications for
that would be utterly out of the ques-
tion and the most 1 can do is to say
through the press that am not un-
mindful of their kindness. Many of
the callers whom have been obliged
to receive would not I think have en-
croached upon my time if they had
given the matter moments refiec-
tion. Those who called upon me to
talk about offices, it seems to me have
been q little inconsiderate and GER
tainIy unnecessarily premature. 1
desire to give as much publicity as
possible to the statement that do
not propose to consider applications
for office prior to my Inauguration
and shall avoid all interviews ON the
subject. Those who under a pre-
tense gain an opportunity to present
applications orally and those who
burden me at this time with written
applications cannot possibly do any
thing which would so interfere with
their chances of success. Written ap-
plications will be so little regarded
that doubt if they ever see the files
in Washing ton, for there is no reason
or decency in my being overwhelmed
with such matters at this time"
Upon being asked how long he ex-
pected to be away on vacation he re-
piled:
"As to that / am not certain.
1t will depend upon various
conditions. L expect, however; to be
absent about two weeks and when 1
return unless L am somewhat relieved
from the unnecessary demands upon
my time to which L have been subjec-
ted here thus far, 1 shall shut my
house in the city and find some more
quiet places to spend the winter. Ger
tainly between now and the fourth of
March ought to have some time to
devote other matters than receiving
callers and considering subjects
which should be postponed"

The First Story Is Not Believed and Young
Man Is Under Arrest.
Special to The Statesman.

Special to The Statesman.
DALLAS, Nov. 22.-David Nevells, a
young farmer, was arrested at Rose
hill last night by Tobe Ethenridge,
city marshal of Garland, on warrant
charging him with the murder of W.P.
Anderson near Housely on the night
Nov. 10. The wife of the murdered
man claimed that an unknown
man whose motive was robbery had
assassinated her husband and fired
two shots at her, and after driving her
from the premises had pillaged the
house, taking away $50 in cash. The
neighbors thought otherwise. Ander-
son was hopeless cripple for years
and Dave Nevells, q young farmer,
had farmed his plantation on shares,
making his home with Anderson.
For three years heremained with An
lated in the neighborhood that is not
necessary to reproduce here. A year
ago Nevells quit the Anderson
farm and went to the
county remaining there until last
August when he returned to Housely,
since when he has been employed by
Tom Venderberg. Your correspon-
dent interviewed the young man at
the Jail tonight. He denied all knowl-
edge of the crime and declares he was
at Rosehill participating in the DEM
ocratic rally when the murder took
place. Anderson's place is one mile
from Rosehill. The bullets were fired
from a 38-calibre Smith & Wesson and
Nevells had 38.calibre Smith & Wes-
son pistol in his trunk. He is
"a years old and came
from Perry county, ILL.,, when he was
years old and has brother living
near Gailand. He takes his arrest
coolly and says that he cannot be con-
vcted of the crime laid at his door.
Judge r. e. Burke has called an ex-
ira session of the grand jury and to-
morrow that body will reconvene and
investigate four bloody murders that
have taken place in Dallas county in
the short space of two weeks.

HOUSTON, Nov. ga double tra-
gedy occurred about 8 O'Clock this

LAREDO, Tex, Nov. 22.-Consider-
able interest has been awakened here
concernin the rainmaking expert
ments now on in San Antonio. The
arrival of The Express was awaited
with impatience this evening in the
hopes that some explanation might
be given of the phenomenal weather
had in Laredo last night, and the OK
planation was at hand. At o'clock
yesterday evening the sky at Laredo
was clear with no indication whatever
of rain. An hoar and q half later
the sky became overcast with clouds
and q slight sprinkle was the results.
Ten minutes to II o'clock that night
with no premonition the heavens were
overcast with clouds and the heaviest
rain continued to fall until morning
that has visited this section for many
months. The most phenomenal thing
was that during all these sudden
changes in the weather there was not
breath of air stirring, The
most skeItical this evening on
the arrival of The Express admitted
that the discharge of explosives by
