since then Kansas has been afflicted with

CLEVELAND has written a letter to a

"It seems to me that the friends and neigh

cannot go wrong if they follow the lead of
Robert Il. Pattison."

MILITARY NOTES.

| Yesterday afternoon Captain Chase
was seen by LIGnT reporter In regard tt
his Cara trip. The following is descrip'
| ton of the trip as given by him. When
asked what kind OF a trip it was he re-
| piled: 1--WE had very good trip consider
| ranchmen living in that district" The
reporter then inquired If Cara was so
"slick" as represented. No" said the
captain, "he is no fool, but any
one could keep out Of our
way who had as many friends
as ne has. II you knew every one in
city like this, and all were willing to hide
you, could you not go from one house to
the other aud avoid the authorities,
especially if your friends would not tell
the officers where you were. Well that
is how Cara manages to keep out OF the
soldiers way. If he were TO take to the
brush we would soOD catch him.
Did you ever see him. Inquired the
fiend.
''Oh yes, on one occasion / got four
shots at him but missed my
his horse, spurs, saddle and outfit.
The saddle we found hidden under q
woodpile and the horse was running
loose. After finding these we took to the
trail, guided by Pueblo, Mexican who
had carried mail for Cara and afterward
came over to our line, until we came up
on the revolutionist on foot. He made
his escape. The LIGHT man then asked
if this would virtually end the trouble.
To this the captain replied: Yes. think
that the trouble is all over down there.
1t has become thing of the past
When asked as to the number Of men
killed under him, he said: Il
lost two men, both Mexican scouts. The
first was killed in one of the encounters
with Garza's men, while out doing his
work as scout. The other was killed
after we left Santiago on the home trip.
He had teen warned that he would be
killed for joining my band, and met his
death about twenty miles from Santiago"
Several enlisted men were seen and
gave very much the same story. Thus it
is true that GarZa'S saddle and things
were captured, though this has been
Scoffed at by many.
The enlisted men at Fort Sam Houston
will be given muster for pay tomorrow at
Fort Sam Houston.
The cavalry men have received their
money, regularly every month while in
the field.
The boys will be paid off on about the
fourth of next month
The officers and c0mmiSsary department
employees will get their pay tomorrow or
next day.

The Clark club here originally formed
is composed of democrats only.
The city administration is non political,
it claims democrat at its head: our com
miSSioners' court is headed by republi-
can; the first asks the people to sustain it
now when it is out of funds, the latter
has funds on hand and don't have to be
responsible to the people for its acts; the
plea of Ignorance is their safeguard.
Where are our local politics? Will they

OUR HOTELS.


ton For Ii.
In this city there ore eleven hotels,
all of which contlnh, to flourish in
sDite of the dull season now on. Still
Cor a city of its size, San Antonio is
very poorly supplied with hotel ac'
acommodstions.
In speaking of our hotels as COM
pared with those Of the eastern and
II 1rthern states, as several commercial
travellers stated, we are not in 1T. In
Chicago or other cities in the north
the Menger would rank as a second
or third rate hotel, but in the south
there are few that can equal it and
none to outclass it.
Prominent hotel men of this city
were asked as to whether San An
tonic offered an opening for another
hotel or not. and what would be the
best location for one. They, as a gen.
eral rule, answered very much the
same. All are of the opinion that
frstclass hotel would do we'll here,
and that unless it was q first class
one, it would do no business what
ever. AS 8 location for this hotel, the
following places were mentioned:
The lot at the corner of East Houston
and Nacogdoches streets was given
ss the best locality,it being high open
on all sides, and we'll connected by
street car lines with the different de-
Dots. The whole block, where the
southern is situated, was named as a
good place. Houston street and Main
plaza were not forgotten. Among these
the first was given as the best.
The following is the different
amount OF rooms and the accommo-
dalton offered the public by our
hotels:
The Menger ranks first; it has some
$50 rooms, and at present has from
200 to $50 regular guests; everything
is kept in order at this esta blishment
and in case OF rush of business they
could easily accommodate as many as
800 guests without crowding them
greatly. The business at this hotel
is very dull this season.
Following the Menger comes the
Mahncke on East Houston street. 10
this house there are so rooms and at
present 63 guests. About l25 guests
could be accommodated in a rush.
This is also dull season for this
l0SEse.
The Maverick comes third. 1t has
about so rooms and at present pro
badly IS guests. One hundred and
fifty people could be accommodated in
case OF rush.
The Southern and st. Leonard have
about 80 rooms and same number of
guests each. They would probably
be able to accommodate about l25
guests each if necessary, but prepsr
atoms would have to be made for
guch occasions.
the Central mas 80 rooms and about
25 guests. II could take i'll about 80,
perhaps more.
The Vienna, Porter House, and
Globe have from Is to % rooms each,
and about that mum Ger OF guests.
They might be able to accommodate
from 80 to 50 were they called upon to
do so
The Argyle at Alamo Heights and
Home Villa at Wet End have from
Is to % rooms each with probably Is
guests eacn. Perhaps if greatly press
ed they could find room for about 80
or 40 guests each.
There is a large hotel going up at
West End which will be three stories
nigh and supplied with all modern
improvements. This will help that
suburb greatly.
There are several small establish
rnents in the city, such as private
boarding houses, etc. A frs -rlass
hotel would do 10 harm in this city.

GEN. BUTLER WINS.

~ Appeal From Southern Circuit Court
Judges Meets a Supreme Court Victory.
WASHINGTON, March 15.-Gen. Benja-
min F. Butler has won the appeal which
he took from the decision OF the circuit
court of the United States for the eastern
district OF Massachusetts,, affirming a
Judgment for $4,000 and interest from
7s79, obtained against him in one of the
Massachusetts, courts by the national
Home for disabled Volunteer Soldiers.
Butler, while treasurer of the National
Home, advanced $4,000 to Gen w. $.
Tilton, in charge OF the home at Togus,
Maine, to be used in beginning work at
shoemaking.
IL is alleged that Butler had failed to
account for the payment OF the money.
Judgment was given against him. The
grounds OF the appeal and of the action
of the court were that the case was not
fully tried and that an opportunity had
been afforded to Gen. Butler to show GER
thin material matters connected with the
suit.
Justice Harlan rendered the opinion Of
the cort, reversing the judgment OF the
lower court and ordering new trial.

tice Fuller and Justice Gray took no part

4 Wealthy Chinaman, Who Was Ordered
Away WIN Not Depart.
WASHINGTON, March 15.~-The United
States Supreme Court has rendered an
opinion directing that the judgment of
the United States ICircuit Court for the
northern district OF California ordering
that Lou Ow Bew be 'deported from the
United States and return to China, be re-
versed.
Lou Ow Bew is Chinese merchant who
had resided in Portland, Oregon, for II
years prior to 1890. He was engaged in
the wholesale and importing business,
and under the firm name of Hop Chong
& Co., had built up business OF 100000
year. In September, 1890, he left the
Uuited States temporarily, on visit TO
relatives in China.
Before departure he secured satisfactory
evidence Of his status ms merchant. He
returned to the United States i'm August,
1891, on the steamship Oceanic, and land
ed at San Francisco. The collector of
customs refused to permit him to remain
here, on the sole ground that he had
failed TO secure the certificate of identifi-
cation required, TO be obtained from the
Chinese government by merchants and
Others coming to the United States.
The United States courts in California
affirming the legality of the collectors
action, Lou Ow Bew brought the matter
here on habeas corpus proceeding.
