MoRTON'S COACHMAN.
The Circuit Court Dismisses His Hatea'
Corpus Proceedings.

The Circuit Court Dismisses His Hateas
Corpus Proceedings.
NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-Judge La.
cOmbe, in the United States circuit
court today, dismissed tie writ of
habess corpus in the case of john
James Howard, Levi p. Morton's
English coachman. Under this ruling
Howard must go back to England.
There is still one chance for Howard
and that Is an appeal to the secretary
Of the treasury for rehearing Of the
case. Judge Lacombe, in Diminishing
the writ, did not take the ground
that Howard was not entitled
to land, but that the courts
have no authority under the statutes
to interfere. The opinion Is lengthy
one and fortified by references to de-
cisions of the United States supreme
court. General Tracy, ON behalf of
Mr.. Morton, raised the points that
domestic aud personal servants were
exempted by the act; that Howard
was both domestic and per-
sonal servant, and consequently
his landing was not in violation
of the statute. Judge Lacombe
admits all these contentious,
but says: THE language OF the
act clearly relates to the secretary of
the treasury's sole power to decide
whether an immigrant is here in vio-
lGtion of the law, the secretary has
made such decision in the case and
however jealous the courts may be and
reluctant TO admit that there was any
statute that did not call for judicial
Interpretation OF them, the language of
the contract labor act is too plain to
set aside.n
Towards lawyers will probably
make another appeal to Secretary Carr

dent of the Santa Fe, and j. A:
Handley, general freight agent OF
the Santa Fe. There are seven in
dictments against these men. The
indictments are the result of invests
cations the interstate commerce com
mission has been prosecuting for some
time. The attorney general assigned
one of his assistants, Mr.. Shields, to
conducI the efforts to secure indict-
ments. Mr.. Shields has been furnish
ing witnesses for three weeks and his
success in securing the indictments
gives great satisfaction to the govern
ment authorities. The latter state
that the lack of violations of the in
teratate law is direct, and positively
state that there can be no miscar.
riage of justice by witnesses refusing
to testify. The charges state the pay
ment of rebates by the Santa Fe
roads. An examination of the books
of the Santa Fee by Mr.. Little showed
500, 900 unaccounted for, which is
supposed to have gone for this pur-
pose.

Citizens Wrought Up Over the Bad Quail
ity and Inadequate Supply.
Special to The Statesman.
Houston, Oct. ia mass meeting
called by the Houston Labor council
was held tonight, and was attended
by meu in every walk OF life. The
object of the meeting was to take acr
ton regarding the recent holocaust
wherein 100000 worth of property
was destroyed and two lives lost
through the non-fulfillment of con.
tract on the part of the water
worl company. Resolutions were
adopted demanding that the
city council compel the water COM
pany to comply with their contract
or resign. 1t was also resolved to or
ganize Citizens Protective associa-
tion on the order of the one in New
Orleans to investigate actions OF pub
lie servants and see that public con-
tracts are lived up to. HOuston's
water supply is sold to be inadequate
and the water works company not
only fail to give fire protection, bat
pretend to furnish artesian water for
drinking purposes, while it is alleged
they pump polluted water from the
bayou. Feeling runs high, particu-
larly as insurance rates, already high,
have again advanced Il per cent.
The investigating committee of the
city council will invite insurance men
to appear next Tuesday before it.

OVERRUN WITH BANDITS
HAVING THINGS THEIR OWN WAY
IN THE TERRITORY.
Robberies are of Almost Daily and
Nightly Occurrence and Officers are

Fort Gibson Leaves.

Fort SMITH, Oct. l0.-From the
number and character OF robberies re-
norted daily from the Indian country
il would seem that condition OF law
lessness exists there now that outri-
walls anything ever known before and
that crime is rampant. So numerous
and daring have the robberies become
that the express companies doing
business in the territory have ceased
carving money and the banks refuse
to issue drafts unless heavy bonus be
maid People have therefore resorted
70 all kinds of methods to bring
money out of the territory. A travel
ing man yesterday brought $4,000 out
sewed in a horse collar. Another
drummer brought out Sl5OO in the
bottom of sack of oats.
Near Fort Gibson last night +. b.
Mittong and L. A. Wakefield, two
travel3ne men, were held up and rOb~
he'd They were travelling to Table
ouah in a buggy. Hardly day
passes that not less than half a dozen
robberies are committed. Most OF
them are charged to the Cook gang,
but it is certain that there are much
larger number of highwaymen operat~
ing in the Indian country than the
Cook gang contains.
Agent Cox at Fort Gibson has re-
signed his position. Holdups came too
thick and fast, and when he was called
out the last time and robbed and
abused he sent in his resignation.
Four times during his stay 10 Fort
Gibson he has been compelled to turn
over the company's money to bandits.
The last time the robbers took him
from his home and made him open
the safe and treated him very roughly.
While he was trying to work the como
bination to the safe part OF the
gang stood by hurrying him and polk
ing him in the ribs with cooked guns.
The next day Mr.. Cox sent in his resig:
nation aud his place will be supplied
by another agent.
