WASHINGTON LETTER.
CONGRESSMAN SAVERS BACK AT
WORK WITH HIS APPROPRIA-
TION COMMITTEE.
AS Congressman Return 1t Is More and
More Evident the Democrats Expect to
Do Nothing at this Session but Pass
Appropriation Bills.
Special Correspondence.

Washington, Nov. 23-Affairs here in
Washington just at the present time
seem to be in a state of quietude. The
excitement following on the result of the
election being announced has gradually
died away and although the time between
now and the opening of congress is short
the members seem to be rather slow in
gathering in, and as consequence there
is rather a dearth of news and excite
ment in political centers. So far about the
only feature noted in the way of national
legislation is the assembling of the men,
bers of the house committee on appropri-
|ations in order to have their work of pre-
pairing estimates ready for consideration.
Congressman Joe Sayers reached the city
last night, and today he called his COM
mittee together. Only small portion of
the committee was on hand, however, and
Ieven they were not able to transact very
large amount of work. 1t is the first time
they have met since the adjournment of
the long session and the election having in
tervened in the mean time they naturally
felt like discussing politics to greater

CHICAGOANS IN THE FORT.

Special to The Statesman.
Fort Worth, Nov. 25.-About 100 of the
representative business men of Chicago,
members of the Board of Trade of that
city, arrived here this afternoon at 300
on a special train from Waco, where they
have been attending the Cotton Palace;
They were met by Mayor Paddock and
committee of citizens and escorted TO
lishment and there handsomely enter
tanned. The visitors expressed themselves
as highly pleased with what they have
seen of Texas, and it is confidently eX-
pected that their visit will result in secur-
ing capital to be invested in developing
the immense resources of this great state

when Chatham and Brewer approached.
Moss threw his hand to his hip pocket
as if to draw apistol, when Chatham
grabbed his hand and Brewer also
grabbed him. Moss being a stout and
powerful man, resisted the officers, when
both officers pulled their pistols. They
scuffled with Moss until they reached
the church door, 30 feet away, when
Moss succeeded in wrenching Brewers
pistol from his hand and fired it once at
Chatham, but Brewer knocked the pistol
up and caught the bullet in his arm, in
flicting serious wound. He then
rammed Brewers pistol into Chatham's
breast and pulled the trigger again and
again, but Brewers hand caught the
hammer and the pistol only snapped.
His hand, however was terribly cut.
By this time Chatham had freed his pis-
tol from Moss grasp and fired six bullets
into him, killing him almost instantly.
Intense excitement prevailed at the
church and scores of women tainted.

THE FIGHTING EDITOR WAS IN.
An Albanian Attempted to Thrash an
Editor, With the Usual Results.

Birmingham, Nov 26.-The Sunday
Star yesterday charged that ex-COngress-
man Hewitt, chairman of the city Demo-
cratic committee, had been Republican.
Today early Perkins, prominent insur--
ance agent and step-sOn of Hewitt, called
upon Editor Len Button of the Star,
knocked him through a glass window,
pitched him over table and was other
wise demolishing when Button rallied
and savage fight followed. Perkins
came out with broken nose, a closed eye
and many ugly bruises, while Button was
bitten in the cheek and through the thumb
and otherwise disfgured. Perkins has two
physicians with him tonight. The fight re-
suited from the heated municipal cam
paign which is between Robert Warner
((Dem.) and ]. N. YANKEES Qnd.).

mense capital, it has been con-
fronted with two hostile influences /;
one is the desire of the people for
cheap sugar, and the other is the
hatred, and often blind hatred, by
the people of Trusts. As usual,
they do not discriminate between
good and bad Trusts, but declare
war against all of them indiscrim-
inately. This attitude forces the
Sugar Trust into self-defense, and
in that defense it has undoubtedly
used large sums of money, in ways
which are very questionable.
War is now declared between
that Trust and the people. 1t will
end, probably, in drawn fight"
because both sides are partially
wrong. The Trust springs out of
the conditions of commercial life
in the States; conditions which
were created by the people alone.
The vice" or trouble with the
Trust is, that its existence is de-
pendant upon protection" and
any business dependant on that, as
We have found out here, simply
hangs by slender thread, which
few Congressman may cut at any
time. Congress may, at some time,
refuse to protect p" refined sugars,
and then the Trust must go.

passed its second reading.
Mr.. McCandless said he supposed
hat nomination for Senator or
representative was liable to be
on some members of the

whether snch members were eligi-
lie. He thought they were, as
he Councils were simply Legis-
ature, and it would be about the
anne thing as Senator succeeding
himself.
Mr.. Waterhouse thought that any
member of the Councils being
lected to either body, should at
nee resign from the Councils.
Minister Hatch stated that he ,
bought that members of the Coun-
lis were not disqualified from re-
ewing such an office.
