To Escane City Taxation.

In an obscure corner OF an obscure
evening patent medicine sheet appears
the following advertisement:
Notice is hereby given that L intend
to apply for the passage by the 10Th
legislatu of the state of Texas of
special law to amend section two of an
act of the 2lst legislature of the state
of Texas, entitled IAN act to grant
new charter to the city of El Paso, ;"
approved March ,. 1889, for the purpose
of changing and correcting the limits
and boundaries of the city OF Ell PasO
and defining and fixing its territorial
Jurisdiction.
WAsHINGTON B. MERCHANT.
There is said to be large gen Imam OBJ
color in this particular cord of W, /, and
his whisper as it is waited around the
corner of the same is this. The Cot
touwood and Bassett additions are at
present within the city limits and
subject to city tax levys. Now, if by a
Legislative enactment these two tracts
could be set without the city limits the
amount of money saved would be
considerable, and times, you know, are
very dull.
The above is, however, one side OF the
story Judge Merchant says the move
! is not to get the two additions out OF
the city limits, but to definitely locate
the northern boundaries of the city.
! These boundaries he says are altogeth-
er too loose and Indefinite, as study OF
/ the city charter will show. The evil
| is such as demands correction, and
/ Legislative enactment will do 1t.

MURDEROUS CONSPIRACY.
william and Gus Weber Under Arrest
Serious Charge.

CHICAGO, Jan. civilian J. Weber,
formerly paymaster of the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad in ST. Paul, and re-
Gently acting secretary and treasurer of
the Kilmer Bale Tie Company, of this city,
is with his brother, Gus Weber, under
arrest on a charge of conspiring to commit
murder. The intended victim of the Web
ers was E. v. Hamlin, the secretary and
treasurer of the Bale and Tie company.
Mr.. Hamlin, it is said, secured Weber the
place in st. Paul and when his own health
gave way from overwork had Weber
brought here to fill his own position while
he was away on a vacation. Weber filed
Hamin's position with the Bale Tie COM
pany for nine months and did so well that
he was promised the place permanently
IL Mr.. Hamlin did not return. The latter
did return, however, and Weber was pro-
vided with another position. But this an
gered him and, in order 70 again secure
Hamlins place. he. it is claimed. proposed
the way. Gus Weber agreed and was pro-
vided with weapons with which to do the
work. Thursday night Gus Weber and
man named Richard Maloney, who had
agreed to assist in the murder for SO,
followed Hamlin as he left his Office, in
tending to murder him at the first OPP
portunlty. Their intended victim met
crowd of his friends. however. and the
murder was postponed until Saturday. Be
fore that time Maloney weakened and told
a friends, who carried the tale TO the
police and the Webers were arrested Gus
promptly confessed, corrOborating Ma
loney in all particulars.

DESOLATING FLAMES
FIRES CAUSING GREAT HAVOC IN
PORTIONS OF KANSAS.
The Light from the Blazing Grass So
Bright Newspapers Can He Read
Many Miles Away.

WICHITA, Kan, Jan. 6.-There are prob
ably two counties in western Kansas COW
cred by fire tonight. About 8 o'clock light
was seen in the sky, observable simultan-
eously at Pueblo, Col, and Wichita, dis
tance apart OF five hundred miles. The sup
position is that there are two immense
prairie fires in Kansas, a distance of about
80 miles apart. The Eagle has reports from
ten sections which indicates the largest
fire to be in Kiowa county and that 1t is
of vast proportions. Haviland is the nearest
station to the fire that can
be reached, and the agent there
says the nearest fringe of blaze is
probably fifteen miles away, but so powerful
that newspaper can be read by its light in
the streets Of this town. At st. John, STAFF
ford county. the people are panic-stricken.
as the fire is sweeping in their direction
before strong wind Many of the farms
have been abandoned for years, and the fire
is feeding on the rank grass sunfiowers and
dead hedges. ST. John people think that
the loss OF property and life of man and
beast will be appalling. 1t is impossible
to get details tonight, as operations on the
Wichita & Western railroad were recently
abandoned in that section of the country,
and there are no operators at the stations
to report the disasters of the fire.

sure that he has done so and won. Though
j have heard nothing official in regard to
the patriot occupation OF Havana, am
sure that the report is true. General &C.
mez has long entertained the plan OF shut
ting of the water supply OF Havana and
then attacking the city. He has probably
destroyed the reservoir at Vento and then
charged upon the town. When Vento is de-
stroyed the Spaniards in Havana will be
without any water supply, and complete
surrender is only question Of a very short
time"
Messrs. Aguamonte and Trujillo, who are
both identified with the American Cuban
Revolution.st Society, were of the opinion
that the patriots were in control OF Havana,
and they both believe that Gen Gomez had
a strong force of allies within the walls
OF the city.
Senior Balsamo, the Spanish consul, said
he believed the whole story to be false
How could a gang OF half-dressed rowdies
overcome the great army OF SPAIN he
said 1T is nonsense. Havana is strong
and will never be captured by the rebels.
and Gen Campos is too old soldier to
allow his water supply TO be cut off. Even
IL the insurgents should gain a temporary
foothold in Havana. the Spanish troops
would be safe In Castle MORO until the
royal gunboats put the rebel forces to
fight"

NEW YORK, Jan. IA special to the
World from Havana says: General Campos
received your correspondent to-day in his
private office. although he was busily en-
gagged. surrounded by his numerous staff.
The General said in response to an inter-
rogation that the principal reason why
Gomez has been able to continue his raid
successfully was that the country people
gave no information whatever to the Span
ish generals The Cuban peasants SYM
pathize with the insurgents and the Span
iards in the interior are afraid to give in
formation Of rebel movements. Another
reason was that the insurgents never show
fight. They avoid contact with my
troops" General Campos declared, unless
some times their rear guard was reached.
Being perfectly familiar with the topo-
graphy of the country and used TO con-
slant exercise on horseback and on foot
they have been enabled to maintain a
wide gap between the soldiers and them
selves" The General appears to be in
good health, but he shows signs of the
tremendous amount of work he is doing.
