POINT OUT ANOTHER PLAN.
Government Directors of the Union Pacifi,
Have Plan of Reorganization.

Government Directors of the Union Pacific
Have a Plan of Reorganization.
NV YORK, Oct. pa special to The
World from Washington says; The re-
port of the government directors Of the
Union Pacific Railroad company has
been in the hands of the secretary of the
interior for the three past days and it is
expected it will be made public today.
Its recommendation will act as a cold
bath to the plan of reorganization pro-
posed by the reorganization committee.
That plan seems to have been consti-
tuted practically without regard to the
government debt, while the report of the
government directors proposes a plan
whereby the government may be reason
ably sure Of the payment Of a large
percentage, if not all, Of the debt due it,
not only by the Union Pacific but by
the Central Pacific.
The basic proposition, on which the
report is made, is the consolidation of
the Union Pacific and the Central Pa
cifG railways into a single trunk line,
extending from Omaha to San jose,
Cal, thus connecting the Pacific coast
with one of the principal rail
way centers Of the transmits
siSsippi country by the shortest
line in existence, and with ample termi-
nal facilities at each end. 1t is held
that the lease of the Central Pacific by
the Southern Pacific can be broken and
set aside. This being done the way Will
be clear for the plan of reorganization,
the two roads being treated as one.

A TRAGEDY IN MEMPHIS.
A Former Texan Killed by a Prominent
Physician of that Burg.

Memphis, July 1j.-The crowds OF
ladies and others who thronged the retail
section of the city about O'Clock this
afternoon were startled by a tragedy
which occurred on Main street right in
their midst.
Jacob Rothschild salesman for the
ID. II. Baldwin Music company, at 25I
Main street. was shot twice and instantly
killed by DIR. John II. White. a well
known physician of this city. Rothschild
came here about year ago from Dallas,
Tex, where his wife and two Children
now reside Dr. White has a family in
this city.
Although the sidewalk where the shoot
ing occurred was crowded at the time
nothing was heard to pass between the
two men to Indicate the cause of their
quarrel. They were talking together W
to the time the fatal shots were fired.
DIR. White was arrested and locked
up.
On advice of his counsel he will make
no statements as to why he killed ROths-
child.
The Commercial-Appeal will say to-
morrow that the details of the matter
leading up to today's shooting are OF n
sensational character, involving a young
woman of this city to wlsom both the
principals had been paying attention.
ROthschild's family, it is said, live on
Veal street, Dallas. News of the tragedy
was telegraphed them tonight.
Rothschild's body was taken to HOltz's
undertaking establishment to await the
wishes of his family.
Both bullets entered the body and, ac-
cording to the corouer's examination,
either would have proved fatal.
One ball struck just above the pit of
the stomach, piercing the lung and lodg'
ing near, or i'm the spinal column. The
other entered near the left arm pit, rang
ing upward and severing an artery.
Rothschild had been left in charge OF
the Baldwin music store this afternoon
and the only other person in the estab
lishment when DIR. White entered was
]. B. Shepherd. Shepherd said that the
men grdeted each other friendly ant
conversed quietly. After talking quietly
for several minutes the two went slowly
out of the door together and he did no.
think anything about it until he heart
the shots fired in front of the store.
The ooroner's jury bound White oyel
without bail to await the action of the
grand jury.

What wonderful incentive to the
Imagination of man the improvements
of the last three quarters of a century
have given. We were led TO this rcileC-
ton by a paragraph in an editorial I'M
the GalvestOn-Dallas News reading thus
ly: "In the course of u few years man
will wrap his wire entirely around the
world and hold the horn to his ear and
hear himself talk forever" OF course
this is metaphOricGl, but it contains a
very correct prophecy, and that is that
in q short period in every shape time and
space will be annihilated. The explorer
in the African continent will carry with
him his telephone wire, recording not
only his impressions of what he has seen,
but in rcproof to his vanity of expression
the wire will not only photograph scenes
of forest beauty, but of men, women and
their environments, and convey to the
ear the correct notes of their rude melo-
dies and oratory. Not only will word
pictures engage our fancy, but the phOno-
graph will be enabled to give us the very
dialect and tone by telegraph from this
far distant continent and with his wire
with him the skilled traveller will every
day convey by wire or through space
by other occult means the most vivid pic
lures of everything he encounters.
What splendid triumph of science
this is, and how we ought to congmtu-
late ourselves ON living in such an age,
and yet we are not content. We want to
draw aside the curtain that COnceals from
our view worlds yet unknown to us and
call up the vision of eternity itself. We
will have to be content "to see through
a glass darkly" for some time yet.

DIR. DIAX ENILED.

Washington, July 14.-Venezueian pa
perS received here contain a decree exiting
from that country DIR. Diaz, the physician
to President Crespo. The charge was
that Diaz had sent to the Panama Star
and Herald, newspapers a political COM
munication in which he attributed to the
presidents statements that he would aid
the rebels in Colombia during the trouble
which has recently been put down in that
country. Diaz is from the United States
of Colombia and has been in Venezuela
for five or six years. He is a compara-
lively young man and became a close
friend of Crespo, who appointed him his
secretary In connection with the state
ment today of the wholesale exile of per-
sons from Venezuela, it is stated here that
it can not be correct, as the government
is not authorized by the constitution to
exile persons charged with Offenses against
its authority. Persons, it is said, go
out of the country voluntarily to avoid
the penalties incurred by participating in
revolutions.
The latest mail advices received here
We're on then 9th instant, and they con-
tain no statements of recent attempts to
overthrow the authority of President Cres'

most conservative, learned and patriotic
citizens of this republic, but in few
brief years down from its high estate ana
it's members attempting to create a miser-
able rabble in order that such senators
may be leaders.
We do not object 50 much to the degra-
dation of this body of men who stood in
the past in proud pre-eminence in the
galaxy of statesmen and patriots as we
do object to them using their high posi-
ton to attempt to degrade the people of
America to a bowling mob of Sans
Culottes," to a miserable rabble, seek
ing through low cries appealing to the
meanest and lowest instincts of a peO-
pie TO array one class of freemen against
another class of freemen-the poor
against the rich-in country where
every man stands upon his own merits
and rises or falls according to his own
efforts. We object to these men at
tempting in the name of equality and in
the way that Senator PETER proposes to
destroy the distinctive individuaism of
personal freedom and personal character
that has always distinguished the masses
of the American people from the masses
of any other people on earth.
"Up with the people," indeed! Where
are they now? They are already up and
no money power on earth can pull them
down. They are just as far above
Senator PETER in patriotism and all that
goes to make up the character of an
American citizen as each individual of
them is above the meanest miser in the
land, whose only delight is to count his
hidden gold The people of this country
do not envy the money power. They
have something better than money-in-
telligence, patriotism and personal free
dom, and they would scorn to ask any
political party to help them down the
money power. The money power is but
a factor in their hands of Drawn. and
their energy and enterprise, and they
will use it to their own advantage without
calling on the government or any poll
teal party to help them.

AN ATTEMPT TO DEGRADE THE
PEOPLE

Two of Senator Peffer'S essentials, in his
effort to form new party, thelast two out
of six he mentions, is, first, Down with
tine money power" and second, "Up
with the people" There is more con.
centrated humbuggery in these two SEN
fences than could possibly be crowded
into 10 others by the most accomplished
demagogue that ever oily gammoned the
farmer on a court green on county court
day. Down with the money power
is the very essence of anarchy direct
appeal to the cupidity of the people to or,
ganize a political party to do for the
people that which the people lack energy
and industry to do for themselves.
No honest, industrious American citi-
zen wants to join a political party to aid
him in downing the money power. The
industrious citizen who has no money but
his labor makes the money power auxili-
AIRY and subordinate to his interests. He
recognizes that an honest combina ton of
capital and labor is the only means of
business prosperity under any form of
government He does not want to change
the form of government by means of
the organization of political party
whose Shibboleth is Down with the
money power" He knows that money
ii an important element in material prog.
reSs and development and he would not
destroy it if he could. He would. how.
ever, use it in combination with his
own Labor to build up his own fortunes
and free the government from any ne.
ceSSity TO contribute to that end. What
a blatant old humbuS PETER must be-
ever to announce such an anarchistic
plank in the platform of any party.
The second proposition of Senator
PETER is, up with the people" How
BY downing the money power through
the organization of a political party
The people ask no such thing. This
senator talks as if we We're living under
an absolute despotiSm, and borrows from
the French revolution the "ca ira" of
death to the king and queen, their chill
dren and the aristocrats."
We might we'll pause here and
stand in dumb amazement at the
degradation of the United States
senate composed as intended it should,
but, alas, how fallen, of body of the

The popular magazine writer's are writ
as if all political PARTIES heretofore eX,
listing have been abolished and abandoned.
These fellows are drawing on their i'm
aginations to fill pay space in magazines.
The political parties of the future are the
Republican parties, with their same old
i'sues-the Democracy fighting for the
people, and the Republicans fighting
against them for a centralized power.
Future political parties may, and likely
will, arise like the mushroom in night,
but if you are MOTT careful how you use
them you will get hold of a poisonous
toad stool.

THE ATTORNEY GENERALS OPlN
ION ON THE PRIZE FIGHT.

Without pretending ITO follow the attor-
ney general thrOught the intricate mazes
and fine drawn theories of construction
in his opinion published yesterday to the
effect that prize fight is clearly against
the provisions of the Penal Code of the
State of Texas, we do pretend to be able
TO understand that the court of appeals
of the State has decided that such fight
is unlawful and that it is the duty OF the
Sheriff of the county in which it is pro-
posed TO engage in such fight to prevent
lit.
There can be no question that when
properly authorized court decides what is
to be the proper construction of penal
code that it is the duty of the officers OF
the coordinate branch of the State govern
ment to execute the law as laid down by
the court. This seems to be conclusive.
We can further endorse the opinion of
the attorney general in the general con-
structon of statute by consulting the
evident intent Of the legislature. The leg
islaurc, if they did mot mean 50 ITO cloud
the statute as to make it imperative, GER
tainly meant to repeal all laws licensing
prize fights and enact law against 1T
with penalty therefor. They might not
have sufficiently defined the penalty, but
if they repealed laws licensing such fights
and making them unlawful and ATTACHING
any kind of penalty, even if that penalty
;nI 4 h. liz,
enforced, it does not relieve the sheriff of
his duty to regard a prize fight, as decided
by the courts of the State, as an offense,
and prevent 1T even if he had to call upon
the governor for State troops to aid him
in doing so.
This seems ITO be the conclusion of the
whole matter in Il nutshell. The only re-
question is whether or not the
sheriff takes this view of the case. If he
does, not, clearly the right of the people
to enioin such a disturbance of the peace,
against the laws Of the State, remains as
an adequate remedy and can be enforced
through the courts. nhis settles the ques-
ton about the fight at Dallas.
The court of appeals has de-
cided that it rs q crime against
the Laws of THE State and it fol-
lows that it is the duty of the sheriff as
a conservation of the peace to prevent the
commission of amy such crime, but if
the sheriff refuses to do his duty the
courts will afford relief by enjoining the
preparation of the crime, and the attor-
ncy general of the State with all the
State with all the machinery of the law
in his hands endorsing this decision, will
no doubt see to the execution of the law
as it now stands under the constructions
of the court, so that it may reasonably
be concluded that the power of the State
of Texas being aIrayed against the fight,
that it will succeed in preventing it. 1t
does not matter what this or that man
thinks about it, that is the condition of
affairs in regard to this fight, and no
man or mrn in or out of the State of
Texas can alter these conditions.

SILVER CRAZE DYING.

Atlanta, Ga, July 15.-Reports from
meetings held throughout the State to
select delegates to the free silver con-
vention to be held at Griffin, Thursday
indicate a lack of interest. -.
In Douglas county, only II people at
tended. At Forsythe the meeting was at
tended by just II. AT Thomaston, there tL
was only 13 persons present and the
same number attended at Madison. -.
The lack of interest is attributed to the
mixed character of the convention, when
will include Populists and Republicans
and cause Democrats to lose interest.

THE DEATH OF COL. FREEMAN.


The death of Col. cambridge G. Free.
man yesterday at his residence in this city
was not unexpected, but under the cir
cumstances it was peculiarly sad. He
energy and through his profession as a
dealer in real estate, excited the enmity
some years since of the man who assault
ed him and inflicted the fatal wounds
that caused his death.
The assault to death of peaceful and
law-abidinc citizen will be doubtless used
against this State as cumulative evidence
of its lawlcssness, but that is not more
applicable to Texas than any other State
There are men in every State whose UNI
restrained tempers defy all law. Ol
course the manner of his taking off is
greatly to be regretted, and the influence
of every good citizen aided by the courts
ought to be eXerted to make such things
impossible. We do not desire to form ad
advance public opinion, and therefore re
frain from dwelling upon the lamentable
occurrence. The man who delivered the
death wounds to Colonel Freeman will
be tried by jury of his country and
will doubtless, on proof of his guilt, suf-
fer the penalty of the crime.
Colonel Freeman was n native of Ken
lucky, and one branch of his family es-
pecially well known in the history OF
Virginia. He gets part of HIS Christ.
ian name from the celebrated Governor
cambridge of Virginia, who, it will bC
remembered. was known as Horse Shoe
Cambridge" on account of his being
the leader of the advance across the Blue
Ridge, and the discover by him of the
valley of Virginia. In order to cross the
Blue Ridge Governor cambridge intro
duced for the first time in Virginia the
habit of shoeing horses.
On both sides Colonel Freeman descend.
