TOO MUCH HOGG,
And More Trouble in State Finances

And More Trouble in State Finances.
AUSTIN, Tex, Dec. l6.-[Special.l
There is more trouble in the
state finances. Gov. Hogg had
Comptroller Mccall up before him
yesterday afternoon and told him
to issue a circular to the tax COL
lectors to levy on and sell the pro-
perty of all taxpayers who failed
to plant down the cash by January
LIST, as the state was in such con-
dition, financially, that strenuous
efforts must be made to get the
money. Mccall eXpostulated that
this would do no good, as men
would pay it if they had the money
but couldn't if they didn't. The
Governor was determined, how
ever, and instructed the issuing of
the order to be signed by Mccall
and not himself. ;.
