and they caught on at once.
They came in hocks, in crowds,
in troops, and When they saw
what we we're doing and real
lied the IMMENSE SACRI-
FICE that was being made,
they waded right into the good
things and every one secured
a prize. At this SLAUGHTER
SALE you can't go wrong.
Whatever you buy is a bar
gain which cannot be dupli-
Gated for double the money.
YOU DRAW A PRIZE EV-
ERY TIME-THERE ARE
NO BLANKS.
Some good things are gone,
but there are many still here.
Thosewho couldn't get to see
us last week missed some
good opportunities. But we
are still going to give them a
chance to get even. We have
made another STUPENDOUS
REDUCTION in the prices Of
the goods left. This sounds
impossible, but it is true new
ertheless. We want every
thing cleared out from top to
bottom, and the way we are
going to do it is by giving to
each person three times as
much for his money as could
be gotten elsewhere for the
same sum. We have plenty
of choice fabrics yet on hand,
which, if the business had to be
wound up, would command
full price to-day from every
man, woman and child who
needs them. These very same
goods we reduce this week tc
less than one-half Of their mar
ket value. Why, it would pay
you to lay in a stock for future
use.
It's like saving up so much money in bank
you will have to have the goods some time
and you will have then to pay 100 cents OF
the dollar for them. Why not buy them now
and thus effect great saving? A PENNY
SAVED IS A PENNY MADE. This is al
old saying and true one, and if you want tt
save good hard dollars in these bard time:

LATE TELEGRAPH NEWS.
WILL LET IT ALONE.
TARIFF BILL WILL BECOME A LAW
AUGUST 9TH.
President Cleveland Will Allow 1t
To Become Effective Without
His Signature.

WASHINGTON, Aug. ll.--As the
House OF Represe natives last
night adjourned over until We'd
nesday, the tariff bill cannot be
sent to the White House until to.
morrow. 1t will be enrolled and
carefully compared today and to-
morrow, when both houses are in
session, and will receive the sigma
lures of Speaker Crisp and Vice
President Stevenson. The bill
will then be taken to the Presi-
dent, who will have ten days, ex-
elusive of Sunday, or until Mon
day the 9th, in which to act on
the bill.
A great deal of pressure will un-
doubtedly be brought to bear on
the President by the Democratic
senators and representatives to in
duce him to sign the bill, but the
authoritative statement, made by
the Associated Press yesterday that
the present intention Of the Presi-
dent is to let the bill become a law
without his signature, can be reit-
Grated today, as it is stated by the
friends of the President, that he
has freely expressed this purpose,
to those entitled to know, who
have questioned him on the sub.
ject, but says he will thoroughly
consider all phases of the matter.
A member OF the cabinet said
that if the president should change
from his present inclination, to af-
fix his signature to the bill it
would be accompanied by state
ment in explanation Of his reasons
therefor.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l4.-But a
scattering of Senators were present
today when the vice-president
called the Senate to order. Cor
man was not in his seat. Hill was
present, but busted himself in a
newspaper. During the reading Of
yesterdays journal, Mills, of Texas,
asked the unanimous consent that
it's further reading be dispensed
with; but Blanchard, OF Louisiana,
objected and the reading was re-
sumed. When concluded a mes
senger from the House of Repre-
sentatives was announced and in
formed the Senate that the House
had passed the bill placing coal,
iron ore, barbed wire and sugar on
the free list, in which it asked the
concurrence of the Senate.

DISAPPOINTED JOHNNY BULLS
Gould Forgets the courtesies and
Sends q Late Telegram.

RYDE, Aug. 1.-THE regatta Of
the Royal Victoria Yacht club
opened today with the race for the
ce-Commoners cup, valued at
E4OO. The Vigilant was entered,
but, much to the disappointment
of all present, she did not start.
The Prince of Wales has an
nounced his intention of sailing on
the Brittania in every race this
week. 1t was alleged that the own
ers of the Nigilant had not given
the sailing committee the slight
est intimation Of their intention
not to race and the committee had
been waiting anXiOusly all the
morning for the Nigilant to APP
pear.
At II o'clock the following tele-
gram from Gould was received:
"The Nigilant is unable to start
today, as all her standing rigging
has been taken off and has not yet
been stretched properly"
The morning was dull and
heavy, course was fifty miles. A
stif1ish westerly breeze was blow
ing. When the Brittania and
Satanita crossed the line, the
Satanita rapidly forged ahead
and won easily. Her lead
over the Britannia never
fell below two minutes and was
increased to four minutes at the
finish.
Course was covered in the re-
markable time Of over twelve
miles, on an average,per hour.

A Hot Game,

There was an exciting game of
ball played on Rafoth's ball
grounds Sunday between the S. o..
RS and the n. d. AS.
The game was very interesting
and in the seventh inning the score
was to in favor of the S. 0. r.
This inning ended the game, for
Walter Hays face was demolished
by ball thrown by the young
lightning pitcher, Ligon Reese.
Hays, who is pitcher for the n
D. Ms, was at the bat and did not
get out of the way when Dargan
was making a slide for home, and
so Reese threw the ball to the
catcher, but instead of being
checked by that person it was UNI
invitingly received by Hays face.

ANOTHER sNAG, B'GosH.!
The Gulf Shore Has More Trouble
About Right-of-Way.


Captain William Davis, presi-
dent Of the Gulf Shore road, is still
in New York, where he is purchas-
ing material for the construction
Of the line. He is expected here
about the goth of this month.
The road has been having an up
hill fight ever since work was be-
gun. One obstruction bobbed up
after another to hinder the work,
in pushing the road to completion,
but the projectors have met it
each and every time and in every
instance the railroad company
came out victorious in the end. So,
will it be until the road is com.
pleted and then matters will be
made to hum.
The road is now dickering for
right-of-way of 1000 feet through
the property of F. and M. Reuss,
situated about seventeen miles
southeast of San Antonio. This is
the only obstruction between here
and Stockdale, and as soon as this
matter is settled every thing will
again be running smoothly.
Messrs. Sam Maverick, H. H. AL
word and John Stevens, ST., have
been appointed commissioners to
condemn the Reuss property and
left for the place this morning.
They returned as the LIGHT goes
to press.

Had a Whirlwind OF It.

Policeman Foster had lively
racket last night on Alamo plaza
with two boys in buggy. They
were drunk and in driving past DR..
Shropshire's carriage in front of a,
drug store on Houston street, cut
his colored driver with the whip.
The officer traced them to Alamo
plaza and arrested them, but they
resisted and the officer grabbed the
bride of the horse. The young
driver took his whip and dashed
the mettled horse and it ran frantic
ally around in a circle, with the
officer holding one line, the driver
the other. Faster and faster it
went until the momentum upset
the buggy and as the young men
tumbled the officer caught one OF
them while the other ran away.
The delinquent paid 81 for his fun
this morning in police court.

Belknaps Drilling Hard Now and
Being Lectured to Besides.
Belknap Rifles went through a
hard drill at their armory last
night after which they listened to
a very fine lecture on the manual
and tactics and minor military
points of knowledge, from Captain
Bob Green.
He has made the lecture a feat
ure Of his weekly drills, which the
boys not only find very interesting
but instructive.
A etter was received from the
managers of the st. Louis EXPOSE
ton saying, in regard to an Inter
national drill to which the Bel
knaps were DESTROYS Of going, that
unfavorable replies from other
companies had been received and
it was not yet certain if such a
drill would be held.
The drill trip to st. Louis is,
therefore, about given up by the
Belknaps.
The next plume drill will be held
in September.

HOW THE FREE BILLS ARE RE-
GARDED.
Business Orders Rushing In Hot.
Wages of Workipgmen Will be
Cut, but Nothing Said About
Prices Cut.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l4.-At l2:l5
o'clock the House of Representa-
tives brought to the Senate the
special bills placing sugar, iron,
coal and barbed wire on the free
list.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Aug. l4.-The
passage of the tariff bill has al
ready made itself felt in this dis
trict by a marked revival of bust
ness.
Stocks in all lines ofmanufacture
have been reduced to minimum,
and especially in iron, steel and
glass.
Today several large orders were
received by local manufacturers,
and many more are expected. In
some lines OF business the demand
began yesterday as soon as the
passage of the tariff bill was as.
sured, and the telegraph lines were
kept busy last night with orders
for goods.
1t is asserted that slight reduc-
ton in wages will be necessary in
the case of the glass workers, tin
plate men and workmen in some
branches Of the tin and steel trade,
but this has been conceded, the
scales generally allowing for re-
auctions to fit the tariff changes.
The dispute will be over the size of
the cuts.
