Guy Cotter, whose strange
case is interesting all of Texas,
was in the city yesterday and
today. He came over from FIT.
Worth to visit his father-in-law,
Capt. F M. Goode. Yesterday
Capt. Goode met him at the
train and spoke to him, but the
young man did not know him.
He went with Capt. Goode to
his home and spent last night
there. This morning a Register
reporter met young Cotter on
the street and spoke to him.
Cotter said good morning" to
the reporter, who knew him
when he was living in Sherman,
but Cotter asked the reporter
his name and said he had never
seen him (the reporter) before.
About this time j. p. Geren,
who knew young Cotter well,
spoke and shook hands with
him, but the young man did not
recognize him. Capt. Goode
said today:
81 took Guy home with me
last night, but he knew none of
my family. ! showed him a
large picture of his wife, but he
exhibited no emotion and said
he had never known her. |
then showed him his own pic
ture, which he had given me
Just before he left Sherman.
He said it was of himself, but
that he had no recollection OF
having given it to me-"
The boys memory is a blank
lup to about eighteen months
ago when he left Central Amer
lea. As soon as he recovered
from the fever he sailed fol
New York, and went to New
Orleans, and from there to Gal
weston, Austin and TT. Wortl
where he was recognized as Gu!
Cotter.
In speaking to Mr.. Goode
Cotter said: Il suppose Con
ductor Cotter is my father
Everyone tells me so, and i
J must be true"
The young man has a BAN
) stock in Commerce and Fl
Worth but says he never owne'
any bank stock. He says h
: was left an orphan at an earl
age and has been all alone i
the world. Conductor Cottel
the young mans father, say
his son had been in the habit O
drawing the premiums on hi
stock regularly until the las
eighteen months and sine
which time he has not touehe
the premiums.
n Guy left today and is on hi
way 10 San Francisco, wheI
f. he has a position on a lare
: steamer running from that POI
to the Sandwich Islands. Cap
Goode says the boy is NATURAL
= nervous and that his fath'
: thinks that it is best that he g
away from the people who hay
known him and where he WI
not be annoyed by his frienC
. talking to him.
Young Cotter is in the be

SAY NOTHING OR FIGHT.
This Is the Condition Now Confront
Ing England

Copyright, 1896, Associated Press)
London, Sept. 22.-Ihe events of the
week have demonstrated beyond any
possibility of doubt that unless Great
Britain is prepared to face a general
European war nothing is left for her
to do but as stated in the semi-official
communication from the foreign office
on Thursday evening, furnished eX-
clusively to the Associated Press by
Reuters Telegraph company, to stand
aside and to hope for more salts
factory state of affairs.
This backdoWn on the part of Great
Britain is due to the fact that the cab
inets of the continental powers have
concluded that it is more prudent to
condOne the recent maSsacres at Con-.
stantinople than to raise the Eastern
question in the most fOrcible manner,
and as the marquis of Salisbury rec
ogniZes. it is strength and not senti-
ment which rules the world. Great
Britain cannot face the combined fleets
of Russia, France, Germany and Aus
tria, even with the assistance of Italy
Therefore. Great Britain must ld
aside, and, unless Russia prevel. 1t,
the Turk will have a free hand in the
settlement of the Armenian difficulty
by the sword and torch, or by any 9TH
er means which the porte may think
fit TO adopt.
