Should certainly be able to appre-
clate the difference between such stock
as we are now grinding and the various
articles that are sold under the attrac-
tive name of Bone. We earnestly and
cordially invite anyone interested, to
visit our factory at any hour of the
day or night during the two weeks
from this a3d day of July, and they
can witness the grinding of clean dry
cattle bones OF uniform excellent qua
lily. We have never had such a large
stock of bones of such quality and
condition. We received this stock
direct by vessel from South America,
and it is acknowledged by the fertii-
yer trade generally to produce the best
quality of ground bone made. We
will be pleased to mail samples of our
bone to farmers or dealers anywhere,
and will be glad to show the stock at
the factory.

CROSSED THE BORDER.

Bandits Cross the Rio Grande and Defeat
Mexican Troops, turning the Barracks
aud Returning to Texas.
LAREDO, Tex, Dec. ia band OF
Cara revolutionists. numbering about
14O men, and headed by CATERING Car
za's lieutenant, Emtigo Ramon, crossed
from the Texas side of the river into
Mexico three miles above Inguacia Ia
pata, and were marching under
arms when encountered by two COM
panies of Mexican cavalry. The Next
can troopers fairly rushed to the attack,
but the bandits stood firm. The fight-
ing, which was hand to hand, was fast
and furious. The troopers gained no
advantage, but on the contrary lost
ground from the start 1t is probable
that the revolutionists had planned
surprise, Us they were heading toward
the barracks when the cavalry opened
fire and charged upon them
The cavalry was at first repulsed,
then routed, and retreated pellmell,
and in the most disorderly confusion
The revolutionists pursued for dis
tance keeping up hot fire until the
last of the vanquished foe disappeared.
The victors had by this time come up
to the barracks, where the cavalrymen
had but a short time before left warm
beds to repel an attack. Torches were
quickly brought into requisition and
the buildings were soon in ashes All
of the paraphernalia which fell into
their hands that could not be appropri-
ated and carried away was destroyed
The revolutionists, in full possession
of all they surveyed, reiterated in good
order, and recrossed the river into
Texas The greatest excitement pre-
walls throughout the country surround
ing the scene of the battle.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-The anti-op-

ment in support of his own substitute
for it. In opening he called at
tention to the fall of four or five
points in the price of cotton at the
New York Cotton exchange yester-
day, and said that that fall was in
the nature of menace because the sem
ate had undertaken to perform great
constitutional duty. He assumed that
senators would treat such threats with
that degree of contempt to which they
were entitled.

WICHITA STARTLED.
Revelations in the Jasperite Cor
ruption Case.
A TRULY GOOD LOT OF ALDERMEN.
They Value Themselves mt 500 Each to
Parties Seeking city Contracts-In-
former Mofnt's Dispositions
Create Excitement.

WICHITA, Kan, Dec. 15.-In the Unit
ed States district court the deposition
of John V. Mofiitt, formerly of Wichita
and a politician of state repute, now
territorial agent of the Rock Island
Land Co, in the jasperite paving case
was filed and created u profound sensa-
ton.
Moffitt testifies that Robert +. Will
son, of Chicago, the jasperite contract
or, asked his aid to secure the con-
tract for paving Douglas avenue.
He told Wilson that 1t would cost
him about $4,000. Wilson said he
would see those connected with him,
and while he was away in Chicago do
ing this Moffitt should see some OF the
councilmen and find out the lowest
price for which the contract could be
secured. Moflitt saw Councilman
Downing and asked him how much
money majority OF the council could
be bought for and Downing told him
that seven members already had an
offer of 5000 each from another paving
company, but thought that 500 each
would secure them for the jasperite
people.
When Wilson returned Motif swears
that he informed him that he thought
he could get the contract through for
an attorneys fee of $4,000 and 81, 900 for
seven couacilmen and Wilson author
lied him to say that he would pay that
amount. Motif then told Downing
that the amount agreed on would be
paid to the different members of the
council in the office of Wilson's attorney
on the evening of March 10, before the
council met to let the contract, and
Downing replied that that would be
satisfactory.
March 0 Moflitt swears that he told
Downing that the money was ready,
and they went together to the attorney
Office and Downing got his money. The
money for Councilmen Fritz Schnitzler
and John Herrig was also there, the
other four having already taken
theirs. About the same period Moi
fit was in Contractor Wilson's
rooms Mt the Carey house when
Councilman William johnson APP
peared, and then Motif went out TO:
about ten minutes When he returned
Wilson told him Johnson would vote for
jasperite, that he had paid him his price
Wilson afterwards told him that the
jasperite contract had cost him $4,000
in attorney fees, beside to counciimen
and drinks.
On cross examination, Motiitt deposed
that he had seen Councilman Fritz
Schnitzler come out of the attorneys
Office with one of the envelopes contain
ing money left there for the council
man by l.. C. Jackson, who aided VIII
son to secure the contract, and that
Schnitzler had opened the package and
counted out roll of greenbaclIs in his
presence.
