A COURTS SALARY.
Justice Groezinger Brings Suit for It
Against the Auditor.

Justice Groezinger Brings Suit for 1t
Against the Auditor.
Justice of the Peace Groezinger yester-
day filed suit against Auditor Broderick in
the Superior Court to obtain writ of
mandate compelling the Auditor to pay
him $500 salary now due him as said JUS
tice.
In the present stringency of the City
finances the Auditor hit upon the expedi-
ency of ''holding OUT the salaries of the
judiciary. These are always paid out OF
the fee fund and any balance remaining
therefrom after the payment of salaries,
etc., is turned into the general fund. It is
this fund that the Auditor is peculiarly in
terested in nursing just now, in order that
supplies for public institutions, ETC., may
be forthcoming.
But Groezinger does not see why his
pocket should be made to suffer for the
shortcomings of others and he has brought
his suit as test case. Other members OF
the judiciary are said to coincide with his
views of the case and to have expressed a
purpose of bringing such suit had Groe-
Finger failed to do so.

TO FIGHT THE TRUST,
An Association of Laundry Drivers
Formed to Oppose Big
COmb ination.


What will henceforth be known as the
Electric Laundry Drivers Association was
formed last evening at the Office of the
laundry, 215 Valencia street. The avowed
purpose of the organization is to oppose
the so-called laundry trust, which is COM
posed of the Contra Costa, the San Fran
cisco, La Grande and United States laun-
dries.
The members of the new organization
declare that they fear the purpose of the
trust to be not only to raise the price of
laundry work to the customers, but to also
reduce the wages of the employees. They
declare that the trust made strenuous
efforts to capture the Electric Laundry, and
that it was for the purpose of successfully
opposing these efforts that the new asso-
citation owes it's birth. There are about
1000 laundry employees in the City, and it is
expected that most of them will be affected
in some way should the laundry trust be-
come absolute in this City.
There are twenty-five mem bers of the
new association-all of them drivers-and
they have elected the following officers:
President, w. 7. Langton; first vice
president, W. A. Peterson; second vice.
president. E. O. Gleason; recording secre-
tary, P. Tamony; financial secretary, E..
Kragen; treasurer, w. WEIGH.

old-fashioned well under the foundation.
1t was situated directly under the central
pillar of the structure, the undermining
OF which precipitated the disaster. The
well was only 1S inches below the con-
crete base on which the pillar rested. 1t
was of the old-fashioned sort, six feet
deep by eight feet in diameter, lined with
rough stones, and there was no water in
it. The coroner and several building .eX-
perts examined the well, but would give
no opinions on the matter. One building
expert said, however, that neither the
contractor NOT the officers of the business
department could have been unaware of
the fact that the well was there or of the
fact that its filling was too soft. 1t is re-
pOred the district attorney will attend the
inquest, and if any evidence of criminality
is discovered the case will be laid before
the grand jury.
Another badly mutilated and decom-
posed body was taken from the ruins to-
day and was identified as Peter Mareno
an Italian laborer.
But one more man known to have been
in the building is missing and it is eX-
pected that his body will be found there.

CROP BULLETIN FOR TEXAS,
THE OUTLOOK FOR COTTON is
REPORTED AS VERY
POOR.
RAIN BADLY NEEDED IN SOUTH
WEST TEXAS.
Picking Has Commenced on Small Scale
and Will Soon Be General-There
Will Be Splendid Yield of
Corn This Year.

Galveston, Aug. 13.-(Special) LIN the
weekly weather crop bulletin of the Texas
weather service, ISSUED today, conditions
of crops are given as follows:
The outlook for cotton is very roor, ex-
cept over Northwest Texas, where it DIS
reported that the plant is doing fairly we'll.
The dry weather is hastening the opening
of the bolls and rain is n .eded badly over
the southwestern part of the State. Hhe
stalk has grown in q rank growth in some
places over North Texas, where there
have been late rains, and it is reported that
in some fields boil worms Tnd sharp
shooters are doing damage. In other
places the damage from these sources is
not amy greater than in former years. a
general rain would improve ine prospect
of the crop considerably. ais the showers
during the past week were not general
and were insufficient for the crop. Some
picking is being done over The southern
and central portions of the State and it
is reported THAT picking will oe general i'm
some ocalities over southwest Texas by
the close of next week. Picking is un-
usually late.
Corn is about all matured and the crop
is good and the yield will be splendid. The
rain over the east coast district has been
beneficial to the rice crop. A large forage
crop has been saved and the weather is

sion from the terms of the original treaty,
and it is surmised that many cabinet
changes will be due to this criticism.
They think, however, that a change on
dependent upon popular approval, ex-
cept so far as the ministers may be per-
sonaly influenced by it.
Furthermore, they find it difficult to
realize that there should be any misun-
derstanding on the question of rank.
Both Ito and Yamagata are counts. The
former holds the highest decoration in
this account is improbable, as in Japan
the ministry is the creation of the emperor
and its continuance in office is in no wise
the gift of the emperor, and the latter is
a marshal of the empire. 1t is not un-
derstood why men who have already
been so highly honored should make trou-
Bile over the question of the confirming
of an honor which would be only a slight
advance over their present status.
No one at the legation will venture an
opinion as to who might succeed Ito as
prime minister in case Of his permanent
retirement.

Mr.. Healy having lately refused to act
upon it. The motion was therefore, for
vote of censure on the Dillonites, and
was defeated by 81 to %, the narrow ma

BUDGET FROM MEXICO.
Several Earthquake Shocks Excite the
PeOple-Other Notes.

City of Mexico, Aug. 12.-(via LaredO.)
A number of earthquake shocks We're
experienced in this city from an early
hour in the morning, the first trembling
being noted MT II minutes after ,, last
ing II seconds; direction north northeast
to south southeast. The second shock
came at 7:4J. which was slight. but as the
seismic recorder was temporarily not
working the direction was not noted.
From 10 ito 20 minutes past 1, several
more shocks were felt, the principal di-
rt3tiOn being northeast to southwest.
The quake was also felt at points so re-
mote as Jalapa and Orizaba and at Chill
pancingO, capital of the State of GuerTe-
rO, where the shock lasted 80 seconds,
causing a panic among the people. Sim
ultaneouSly with the first shock in the
early morning, brilliant meteOric showers
were noticed
Favorable ubterances of leading AmeIi-
cam papers regarding the annexation of
Cuba to Mexico are attracting attention
here and newspapers are reproducing the
sentiments of THE American press. An
neXatiOn would be preferred by Spain
to selling Cuba to THE United States and
MeXicans would welcome Cuba to their
union.
More hopeful news from Yuncatan is
the financial crisis is nearly over. The
failure of a year ago of n large house
shook confidence badly and the State is
just beginning to recover from the evil
effects of the catastrophe.
The report that q military officer had
assaulted the carriage of President Diaz
is totally false.
The department of communications and
public works has concluded an eNamina-
tion of THE port of Manzanillo, where it is
proposed to improve the harbOr and also
fortify THE place effectively.
The trials of THE MOndragon and Mex
ican rifle and Krag-JOrgenson, which is
the NOrW egian rifle, have been made by
the military staff with results favorable
to the former which was fred ~ times in

Construction of the iron pier at Fronte-
ra has been commenced.
Heavy rains are reported from ChIhua-
lrua, which will do great good to farmers
and cattle raiscrs.
The government regards with pleasure
the STEADY movement towards the Paclllc
of tihe Collisphans International road. LIT
is reported that the route has been slight-
ly changed, going further north.

A BANK FAILURE.
A Financial Institution of Memphis
Forced ito the Wall.

Memphis, Aug. 13.LThe Bank Of Shelby
failed to open dts doors this morning.
Lately its affairs were placed in the hands
of r. J.. Matthews under "a deed of trust
covering all its properties. The haIbili-
ties are stated Ito be $107, 900 and the
assets $137,000, of which only $56 is cash
on hand. The amount due depositors Is
about $4,000. The capital stock Is $780,
900, of which about one-third is paid up.
The bank began business about three years
ago and has never done much. 1t was
in trobule during the crisis Of 1893 and
was only saved by the other city banks
coming to its rescue. Its officers are: j. j.
Williams, president; III. III. Litty, vice
president; L. d. Cary, cashier. They
cleam that the bank will pay depositors
in full and that the failure is caused by
inability to realize on property looms. The
suspension creates no uneasiness here.

TERRELL COMPLIMENTARY
For His Prompt Action i'm the Tarsus,
Turkey, Outrage.

Washington, Aug. 13.-The memorial
of the trustes of st. Pauls Institute at
Tarsus, Turkey, was received at the de-
partment of state today. Some surprise
was expressed by the trustees, in view Of
the fact that upon receipt of the tele-
gram of Mr.. Christie on Saturday Minis
ter Terrell was cabled and replied that
he had already acted upon the Turkish
government and that a promise Of an in
vestigation and protection had been re-
ceived. This had also been put together
with the fact that Admiral Kirkland had
stated that the Marblehead would pro-
ceed to the Mediterranean. The depart
ment feels that everything possible has
been done. Acting Secretary Adee says
that the department was gratified to
learn that Minister Terrell had taken ac-
tion even before the department had been
requested to move in the matter.
