ant Attorney General Thomas has dis
posed of the leading report which has
been going the rounds of the papers
relative to a recent decision of the
United States Supreme court in the
case of the United States against Will

of postn1asters' salaries under the acts
of July II, 1866, and March 0, 1888.
Judge Thomas said that, contrary to
those statements, the decision will not

WILL HAVE TO ANSWER.

Johannes Krug Is In A Peck OF Trou
BILE For Deceiving Selma Krause.
From Houston comes the informa-
ton that Johannes Krug has been ar
rested in that city on charge of Sc
duction.
| Krug's victim is Selma Krause.
1 daughter of Mrs. Gustav Fritsch, of
| this city. Several weeks ago Selma
Krause met Johannes Krug on a stea-
from Germany.
The meeting ended in a love affair,
and the girl being but 16 years of age,
believed everything that Krug, who
is said to be a man about 80 years,
told her.
Although it had been reported that
Krug and the girl were married it
seems that it is untrue.
Mr.. Fritsch, the girls stepfather.
who is shoemaker of this city and
has his place of business on East
commerce street, received the first in
formation Of the girls relation with
Krug through letter from a brother
lodge member of Galveston, shortly
after the girls arrival at that port.
The letter contained no particulars,
only asking Mr.. Frtisch's consent to
the marriage of the girl to Krug, and
assuring him that he would feel just
ly proud of Krug as a son-in-law.
Mr.. Fritsch, who has never met
Krug, said to Light reporter upon
receipt of the letter that although
Krug may be good man and he
would have no objections to the mar
rage, still he believed that it would
seem more proper for Krug to es-
cort the girl to her parents in San An
tonic. to whom she was going, and
ask their consent in person, instead of
OBTAINING the girl in strange place
among strangers.
Mr.. Fritsch has written to Galveston
for information regarding his daugh-
ter's reported marriage, but has as yet
obtained no satisfaction from that
place
1t has now developed that Johannes
Krug and Selma Krause have never
been married and that Krug took adj
vantage of her childhood innocence
under the promise of marriage. This
was learned but few days ago by
Mr.. Fritsch from Selma herself, who
has left Galveston and has been with
her parents in San Antonio for about
three weeks. She told her father all
and an affidavit for seduction has
been made against Krug in Justice
Griff Jones' court.

one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires consti-
tutional treatment. HALLS Catarrh
Care is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the foun-

its work. The propuetors have SO much
faith in its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list of

CITY COUNCIL MEETING.
Franchise Granted-BilIs AlIowed-The
Retiring COunciImen.

A special meeting of the city council
was held last night, being the last meet
ing of the council as at present organ
ized. Mayor Menefee was absent on ac-
count of sickness, but there were present
,Councilmen Saltmarshe. Wood, Eshel-
man, Johns, Ross, Lauer and Nolan.
On motion Councilman Eshelman was
chosen mayor pro tenn, who thanked the
council for the compliment and assumed
the chair.
A number of petitions TO sell liquor
were then read from Dan Baker, Sinnott
& Fish Otto Birgfeld. A. Kellar. T. T..
Nicholas, John Howe, F. w. L. Skibbe,
August Buchler, Chas. Frank, F. Lemke,
Wiseman & Marders, Ben Wilson, A.
Baldwin, Marders & Michelbach and
Maeiz & Pundt. The petitions were
granted, on motion OF Nolan.
An ordinance was then read granting
, a franchise to Seufert & Condor for
y erecting, constructing. maintaining, u.s.
sing and operating telephone, electric
Night, power and telegraph lines in,
under and through the streets, alleys
and public places of DaIles City. The
company does not ask for an exclusive
franchise, guarantees that no expense
shall sccrue to the city from any work
they may perform. and hold themselves
responsible for any damage that may
result from their busiRess.
Mr. Nolan desired to know if the firm
would be willing in return for a fran
chise to supply the recorders Office
with free telephone, In explanation
Mr.. Condor said the franchise was as
good thing for the city as himself.
The company proposed to lay all its
wires underground at great expense,
which would be out OF the way of the
fremen and would greatly lessen all
trouble and danger. They asked. for
nothing better than what they. already
had from business standpoint, but
wanted their underground wires pro.
tected by a franchise from being de.
stroyed by anyone who might come
upon them and think they were in his
way. Councilman Thompson believed
that an unconditional franchise should
be granted, and on motion of Mr.
Nolan, the ordinance was placed upon
its final passage and passed.
No other business appearing, Mr.
Nolan arose and made reference to the
retirement of some of the, councilmen
aud he wished to tender the courtesie
o those who remained to those who re
tired. Speaking for himself, Mr.. Eshel
