SQUABBLE AT GALVESTON

A COMPROMISE ALMOST ASSURED
The International and Great Northern
Comedies Its Lease of the Galveston,

Upon motion of the attorneys inter-

Thursday next in the case of I. P. Olcott
ct al. VS.. the Internal ional and Great
Northern railroad, pending on writ of
error. Jas. Hagerman, counsel for Oh

were negotiations pending between the
various litigants in the case which ha,
resulted in reaching an agreement where
by their differences would be amicably
settled, providing said agreement should
mission. This agreement, stripped of
large mass of detail, is substantially as
follows: The International and Great
Northern conceeds that its lease of the
Galveston. Houston and Henderson rail-
road is functus otficio, whereupon the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas abandons all
claims for accrued unsettled charges, lost
Galveston, Houston and Henderson roll
ing stock, etc. Furthermore, the Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Texas agrees to as
sumo the payment of one-half of the in
terest on the Galveston, Houston and
henderson bonds, which half amounts to
$4,000 per annum, and agrees to make
no further attempts to dispossess the In
ternational and Great Northern. In the
future the Galveston, Houston and Hen
derson is to be operated jointly by the
international and Great Northern and
Missouri, Kansas and Texas. The lat

ton over the disputed line. The agree
ment is TO run for 80 years and will be
presented to the railroad commission to-
day for approval upon the arrival of
Winslow L. Price, general solicitor Of
the International and Great Northern.
Both sides consider that they have good
thing in it, as the International and Great
Northern secures 4 reduction of the eX
pense of operating the Galveston, Hous-
ton and Henderson without an increase
of competition, as it has been doing all
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Gal

latter gets more than the winning of the
case before the supreme court would sig
Nifty as probable decision would simply
mean q remanding of the case to the lower
courts and more litigation. However,
the railroad commission hasn't spoken
yet and as the agreement will present
some knotty questions for it to decide,
it may be some time before it announces
the result of its consideration of the mat
ter.

the most exciting mayoralty race ever
held here and that the people were deeply
;ntarasted in il was evidenced by the
strong vote polled in each ward: FOR
several weeks past, and especially last
week. the politicians have been working
tooth and nail TO elect their respective
candidates. The four gentlemen whose
futures were at stake were MeSsrs. Lewis
Hancock, NJ. NJ. Shipe, w. b. Brush
and John Andrewartha. The race was
really between the three first named gen,
tlemen and il was lively one at all
times. The deciding vote was cast on
Monday and all day long the various
ward voting boxes were crowded. Along
about 1 O'Clock in the afternoon the
Shine and Brush factions were both
claiming the victory but the Hancock
mon were assured of victory even before
the official count gave il to them. as they
had carefully reviewed the situation be-
fore hand and knew we'll their ground.
As soon as the returns began coming III
Monday night il was seen that Mr.. Han
cock was elected, and his friends con
graduated him heartily on his good luck.
OF the eleven wards in the city,. the
Sixth, Seventh. Eighth, Ninth and Tenth
went against Mr.. Hancock, the first men
Toned going for Shipe and the other four
giving Brush small plurality.
