There is still in the hands of the treas
urer, of the proceeds from the sales, the
sum of SS72040 ready to be paid to the
owners, the balance having been previously
paid.
We find from the treasurer's financial
report to this committee, covering the bust
ness of the last twelve months, that the e2-
pense for the same time amounts to S14,-
056.55; this amount also covers the de-
fciency existing twelve months ago of
500. 40. The same report also shows that
there has been collected during that same
time the sum of SIC, $40 SO, showing bal
ancs in the treasury of S2523.3S all of
which Is very gratifying to your commit
tee, as our ASSOCIATION has heretofore
showed a small debt over it at the end of
each year for several years.
The workings of the association still con-
tinue to improve, and more and greater
benefits are being enjoyed by its members,
and your committee would recommend a
continuance of the same work by the asso-
citation as the only safe and reliable pro-
lection to the cattle of our members. The
committee has received into the association
thirty-six members since the last annual
meeting, thereby causing an increase in our
resources and enabling US to free the asso-
citation from debt, and to still further i'm
prove the service of our protective depart
ment. We are now enabled to extend the
work over still larger territory and give
protection to all cattle ralSerS IN Texas and
the Indian Territory, provided they will
unite with US and cooperate with US in this
work.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

desperadoes then relieved him of his watch

AN ABSURD RUMOR.
Denial That United States Troops Have
Captured Senior Garza's Ac-
coutrements
Special to the Gazette.

Houston, TEX, March S-A letter to
agent Leman in this city from q friend on
the frontier who is conversant with the
state OF affairs, says the Mexican people on
the lower Rio Graude complain bitterly of
the manner in which they were treated by
the United States troops during the Cara
fasco. The report sent out that Garza's
saddle, overcoat, pistol and other accoutre-
ments had been captured by the captain of
United States cavalry company are re-
garded as absurd.
Cara has not been seen on American soil
since the 18th of last September, and his
most intimate friends do not know his
whereabouts. The truth is, that when the
troops were stationed at the Patio Blanco
ranch, on which lives Senior Gonzales, the
bandits father-il-law, and Mrs. Catarino
Cara, they conhscated some of Garza's
property and then claimed they had cap

tured it in battle, when in reality there
never was even skirmish.
The same letter says day or two ago q
sergeant OF the Mexican army issued a
pronunciamento in which he violently as
sailed the Diaz government and called for
troops to rally to his standard Only seven
responded, and when he sounded his war
cry he found he had to tackle the best men
in the new Laredo garrison. He and his
followers beat a hasty retreat. One of the
ravolutionists was killed, but the sergeant
and the other six succeeded in reaching
this side of the river in safety.
