INJUNCTION MODIFIED.

Circuit Court of Appeals Decides That
 the Kelsey Company May Sell It's
 Goods.
 The circuit court of appeals in the second circuit, sitting in New York handed down an opinion on Thursday modifying the injunction granted by Judge William K. Townsend in the fed eral district court at the February term, in favor of the Thomson, Hous- ton Go. and the Westinghouse Co.,, re- straining the Kelsey Electric Speciality company of this city from furnishing trolley stands to electric railroad com panies.
 Judges Shipman, Wallace and La ,combe were on the bench. The opinion was written by the former, Judge Wal lace dissenting.
 By the decree of the circuit court of appeals the defendant is allowed to sell it's trolley stands to electric companies by way of replacing broken stands or stands out of use, or of substituting for trolley stands previously used By the General Electric Co. to purchasers from the last named company.
 The opinion is important, not only in it's bearings upon the parties to the suit but to the general electric railway system. It recognizes the right of cleo tric railways to substitute for stands purchased from that company stands which are adapted to the best equipped roads.
 The electrical railway companies and the electric railway supply companies have watched the case with interest.
 Edward H. Rogers of this city rep resented the defendant and Fred H. Betts of New York city the plaintiff.

MANY REFUSE TO FUSE.

Action of the North Carolina Demo-
 cratic State Committee-Great Dis
 satisfaction in the Party.
 New York, July 31.--A special to the New York Evening Post from Raleigh, N. C., says; After an exciting session, lasting nearly all night, the demo- cratic state committee decided to offer fusion on the electoral ticket to the populists. The latter will meet in state convention on August IS, when they will decide whether to accept or not, There Is great dissatisfaction among democrats at the action of the commit tee, and thousands will refuse support to the populistic electors. If the popu- lists accept and place half the names of electors on the ticket, a great many democrats will refuse their support This will solidify republicans on the Mckinley electors, and half of their electors, if not all, will probably be elected.

TROLLEY CAR WRECK,
Eight Persons Hurt by Collision in
 Baltimore

Baltimore, July 31.-Eight persons were injured by the crashing together of two trolley cars near Clifton Park early this morning. The passengers had been to Weber's Park attending a picnic given by the Maryland Pleasure club, and returning to the city in two chartered cars.

Others were violently thrown to the floor and more or less injured The cars were wrecked by the collision and the electric light bulbs burst with a noise which gave rise to a report than an explosion had taken place.

A PRETTY GAME.
Fort Worth Team Won the First Game
By 0pportune Batting.

Dy OppOrIune DaIIlng'
The Bronchos got just as many
hits as the Panthers yesterday,
but those of the latter were made
when they were needed, while
when the locals reached first there
was no one to bring them in.
Therein lies the cause OF their de.
feat.
Thrice with bases full the San
San Antonio side was retired. The
last chance was in the eighth in
ming, when with a Broncho on
each sack the mighty" Elsey was
at the bat. The score was 5 to 2
"agin" us and all eyes Were on the
big first. baseman. Elsey had been
hitting well, for he 1batted in the
two runs we got, but he seemed
too anxious to win the game, and
when he failed to hit the ball after
three attempts, a deep sigh went
up from the grand stand, and all
hope was lost.
Dwyer pitched the first three
innings, when Herbert was substi.
tuted. Red held the Panthers
down well, only one run being
made of him. He was awful
stingy yesterday. He didn't give
a base on balls. nor would he hit
anyone.
The fielding of the locals was
asgood as the visitors, there being
only three errors made in the
game. The work of Herman was
the feature. This boy covered q
lot of territory, and twice he
backed up Elsey, which prevented
the visitors from advancing bases
Kiernan is little weak at the bat
but his work In the field Is hard

A nice crowd was in attendance

win, they were satisfied with hav

CROUCH FOR CONGRESS.
Our Pearsall Correspondent Says He Is
the Best Man in the District,

the Best Man in the District,
PEARsALL, Tex, July 15.-[Spe-
cial. I'm an interview with Capt.
B. l.. Crouch, the probable republic
can nominee for congress for this,
the Eleventh congressional dis
trict, he states that he believes we
will have a republican for our next
president as well as a majority of
republicans in the house of repre-
sentatiyes. He also thinks that
nearly all of the states will have q
republican majority in their legis-
lative bodies which will be likely
to place q republican majority in
the senate. It Is his conviction
that Bryan is the weakest man
the democrats could have put in
the RAld to make the race, for he Is
not thinking man, very essen
tial quality for any man who has
the management of the 70,O00S00
people in these United States in
his hands, but is simply an almost
unequalled orator, one who seems
to electrify his hearers, and who in
two hours forget all that he said.
It is his opinion that Bryan stands
no chance for election unless the
popuiists endorse him In their st.
Louis convention, which he thinks
is hardly probable, and which ID
they fail to do, will insure repub-
lican president, sound money and
protection, for the sound money
democrats, a large majority of
whom will support the republican
nominee, in preference to the demo.
cratic.
Capt. Crouch is, beyond all doubt,
the strongest man in the district
the republicans could nominate,
and one who will command large
majority of the votes of the demo-
Gratis of this district, and is man
in whom the people can place un-
bounded confidence as well as a
man who would reflect great credit
to his district. He is, strong adj
vocate of protection for the indus
tries of Southwest Texas, as well as
q sound money man.
