Acted Like Thieves.

Maxine Fernandez was before
the recorder as a suspicious char
acter. He is the fellow arrested
on suspicion Of having stolen a
watch.
G. T. Shane, a workman en-
p!Cyed on the new county court
house, testified that yesterday he
saw Fernandez and another Next
can in the engine room of the
building. They had no business
there and he ordered them out.
He remembered that some time
ago HI. H. Toft's watch had been
stolen from his vest in
this same room and Immediately
thought of his own, hanging on a
nail with towel over it. He raised
the towel and his watch was gone.
He gave chase and the MeXicans
ran, but Fernandez hit his head on
a low doorway and fell and he and
another workman caught him.
Search is being made for the other
fellow, who got away with the
watch. The case was transferred
to the state courts.

Stole a Watch,

Harry Emmings, a colored coach
man, was arrested yesterday after
noon by the city detectives on the
charge of theft of a watch, owned
by a colored woman named Pansy
Callaghan. She had given it to a
man named Dan Boyakin, to have
it repaired. Dan hung his coat up
in a stable and soon after missed
it and the coat with it. The de-
tectives learned that Emmings
had pawned the watch at a place
on West Commerce street and soon
after arrested him. He is from
Philadelphia and had come from
New Orleans to San Antonio.

Beating His Wife.

Lewis Martin, said to be brewery
employee, was arrested by officer
Scott last night on a charge of
beating his wife. Before the re-
corder this morning she said he
came home yesterday and struck
her in the side. She thought he was
playing. He went out and hitched
up the horse to the buggy and
started off. She told him his horse
had not been fed, and then he came
into the house and gave her a
sound beating with the buggy whip.
She says he is enamored of a girl
named Mary Younger, and that
she will file on affidavit against her
also. It seems he does not regret
whipping his wife, as he pleaded
guilty to the charge today. The
case was transferred to the state
courts

PEOPLES'S PARTY.
THEIR CONVENTION IN SESSION
TODAY.
Pretty Full Representation Present,
Proceedings of the Meeting.

The Peoples Party convention of
Bexar county met at Krisch's hall
in convention at 10 O'Clock this
morning, Taylor McRae, executive
chairman, presiding.
There were perhaps eighty dele
gates in attendance, among them
being several Mexicans and one
colored man.
All wore blue badges.
The chairman appointed Messrs.
Theo. Banks, Crockett Kelly and
Dowdell as sergeants-at-arms, and
said he had beard that there would
be an attempt made by the Demo-
Gratis to capture the convention.
He gave the Democrats to under.
stand that no such thing would be
allowed and that if anybody at
tempted to interfere with the
working of the convention, they
would be put out of the hall and
turned over to the police.
Precinct delegates were then or
dered to be seated by the sergeants-
alarms, and the process of sepa-
rating the tares from the wheat
began. This was tedious and con-
fusing work and took some time to
accomplish.
1t was at length done, and the
chairman reported such to be the
fact.
He said,he wanted a temporary
secretary and called on f. T.
Thompson to act, in the absence of
the regular secretary, Mr.. G. Runge.
A motion was made that the
temporary organization be made
permanent, and this was done.
Theo. KunZman was made Sec
rotary and Z. r. Thompson assist.
ant.
The chairman thanked the con-
vention for the honor and said he
was plain man and would run
the convention right. If parlia-
mentary technicalities were
brought forward he would proceed
to take his course across
lots and arrive at a decision in &C
cOrdance with his views of justice.
"If three or four members should
get up all at once to raise a rucus
he would have the whole bunch of
them put out" He then asked the
pleasure of the convention.
A committee of five on credentials
and representation was appointed,
to-wit: F. Emilienburg, d. M. Poor,
T. H. Banks, r. NJ. Young and R.
H. Dena.
A delegate named MolinO
was elected to act as inter-
prefer for the convention to
the Mexican delegates, as the
proceedings Of the convention went
on. This is probably the first time
in the history of conventions where
such action was taken.
1t was ordered that any member
desiring to address the chair must
first give his name and the pre-
cinct he represented.
A short recess was then taken.
During recess speeches were
made by Lawyer Harrison and
others until II o'clock, when it
was moved that the convention
adjourn until o'clock p. m.
This was done.
