SIR: Your filing Of the injunction

Austin, No. 10, 43O, convinces me that

same tactics you followed in the arse
nal block litigation against our board

to coerce the people, fighting for a
just cause, in submitting to your per-

In the former litigation you hoped
for success by Withholding from the
school trustees the school funds. This
hope vanished when the school board,
confident of the justice of their cause,
periodically raised the necessary
money on their individual credit.
In the present instance your COM

more embarrassing. In the event 1t

OMM[SSION IN COURT.
THE RAILROAD BONDHOLDERs ARE
KICKING VIGOROUSLY.
Claiming That the Rates as Fixed by the
Commission are Running Their
Property and Praying for
an Injunction.

In the circuit court of the United
States yesterday were filed five suits
in equity by West d McGowen, at
torneys of this city, against five lead
ing railroads in the state, the railroad
commission and Attorney General
Culberson, the Farmers Loan and
Trust company of New York being
the complainant. The suit against
the International and Great Northern
is against Receiver Campbell, the
commission and Attorney General
Culberson. The Loan company sues
as trustee of the bondholders and asks
leave to refer to all the orders In
the International and Great North
ern receivership. 1t recites the cor.
stitutional article under which the
railroad commission was established,
the commission law and the appoint.
ment of Reagan, Foster aud Mclean,
with a detailed statement of their
duties. The bill recites in full the
objectionat lie sections 5, 6 and of the
commission law and gives various
orders issued by the commission and
AYERS that the commission refused,
before fixing certain rates, to give in
formation as required by the law
what rates they proposed TO establish
and did not fix the rates as was re-
quired by law; that the commission
and encouragement are seeking to
enforce the rates so established, and
threatening, without legal notice, to
make other rates; that the company's
officers proposed to furnish informa-
ton as to the rates, business and rev.
enues of the company, but the
offer was declined; that
no witnesses were sworn or
evidence introduced; that no investi-
CATION of the company's revenues was
made and no evidence was adduced
showing the rates were too high, and
that it was shown that the commits
sion rates were unfair; that the tariffs
reduced the company's annual reve-
nue. $500, 600, and so reduced the reve-
nues will not pay the interest on the
bonds of the road after paying ex.
penses, and that the value Of the
property and the interest of the COM

sss,It is alleged that various orders Of
the commission are oppressive and
that some of them violate the inter.
state commerce act; that section 5 Of
the commission act violates section Is
article of the state constitution and
that sections 6 and 7 also violate the
state constitution.
And it is further alleged that pend
ing suit under sections 5, 9 and
against the commission, the roat
would be compelled to accept unjul

rates and the property would be con-
tiscated; that Receiver Campbell re-
fuses to adopt complainants requests
and that he declines to adopt the I'M
just retes: Prayer Is made for an in
junction to restrain the company and
receiver from continuing commission
rates and restraining the railway COM
mission and attorney general from in
stituting suits against the company
or receiver to recover penalties and
all other persons from suits under the
commission law or under the commits
sion tariffs. The earnings and expen-
ses of the road are also given.
The next suit is against the Gull, Col
orado and Santa Fe, the commission
and the attorney general brought by
the same loan company and contains
full statement of the tariffs, earnings
and losses and prays for injunctions
as in the International and Great
Northern case.
The other suits are by the Mercan-
tile Trust company as trustees of the
Texas and Pacific bondholders and
bondholders of the st. Louis and
Southwestern and the Tyler and
Southwestern. Up to q late hour last
evening the commissioners had not
been served with notice. No date is
fixed for hearing.

SAULT STE MARE, Wis, April 80.
While making for shelter yesterday
into Peninsula harbor on the north
shore of Lake Superior, the Canadian
steamer Glengarry, towing the
schooners Gaskin and Glenare, lost
the latter. A fearful storm was rag
ing at the time and it is feared the
Glenoare founded to pieces on State
islands and her crew of ten men
drowned. The Glengarry's wheel
was fouled with tow line and the
steamer went ashore on sandy bot
tom. The schooner Gaskin is safe.

MANOR, Tex, April 30.-TAe picnic
yesterday was success socially.
Politics or political speaking was pro-

sation and the endeavor to make the
children, for whose pleasure the picnic
was had, enjoy the day. Judging by
the happy faces and merry laughter
the effort was successful. The dinner,
too, was all that could be desired, ad-
ding laurels, if that were possible, to
the reputation of the Manor people in
this line.
The game of base ball between the
Elgin and Manor clubs was holly
contested and afforded much pleasure
to the spectators, as well as the play
ers. The Manor boys were beaten,
having had little practice, but hope
to retrieve their laurels on the dia-
mond at future day.

COMPTROLLER.
Bell county redeemed $4,000 worth
of bonds yesterday.
The comptroller is now receiving
taxes for 1891 on Buchel and Foley
county lands. These counties were
carved out of Presidio, and were
charged with their pro rata of Pre-
sidio's indebtedness, but owing to
controversies arising from protests
against court house bonds and other
matters, lists could not be rendered.
All the kinks are now pulled
out of the tangle and
the comptroller will be able to see
that the tax money gets into the

The attention of Gen. Mabry was
yesterday called to the Associated
Press dispatches announcing that the
grand jury of Duval county had failed
to find anything culpable in the con-
duct of "the United States and state
troops in their operations after Garza.'
The adjutant general stated that no
charges had ever been made against
his troops by anybody, ana there was
no warrant for dragging them into
the squabble with the United States
troops. 1t is probable that this has
been done by United States army in
fiuence to create the impression at the
war department that the United
States troops were not alone blamed by
the citizens of the lower Rio Grande
