of Appling court, one of the wit
nesses fer the defense, was called by
Senator Garter. He testified that
Colonel HoIton, the senior member
of the firm, presented him with an
affidavit to sign, lie did not seem to
know Its contents.
Questioned by Mr. Brantley, Mr..
Boone eaid tho trial Of D. NJ. Crosby
was fair and impartial.
Senator Carter offered another wit
ness to prove the good character of
the Misses Bradley and NJ. G. Faux
ner.
Chairman Fielder said tho good
character Of those ladies' and Mr..
Faulkner had been testified TO already
and had not been attacked. No Sur
ther evidence on that point was
necessary.
John Byars, the keeper OF the In
dian Spring bath house, was put on
the stand.
John said he was at the spring
when the judge walked off from the
spring with tha ladies. IIe fixed 6
bath for the judge and in about half
an hour an old gentleman came and
asked who it was that took the bath,
and eaid he wanted to take bath.
He told Judge Sweat that there was
an old gentleman looking for him,
and he se9med TO be offended. The
judge said: "There wasn't anything
in that; had an engagement with
the ladies to take stroll with thena.'
On -ex2min alton ne said MIR.
Faulkner came back down there later
In the day still looking for the judge,
but did not go up to the hotel to see
him. MIR. Faulkner said some Of
them wanted him to take out war
rant for the judge and make it cost
him something, but he didn't want
TO do that and would rather zee the
gentleman and have talk with him.
John saw the judge and lady walk
up toward the hotel. They didn't go
straight up to the hotel; they went
round by the bath house. They went
up on top Of the hill and came back

On redirect examination John said
that instead OF going 10 the hotel to
escape the rain they started away
from the hotel. The back stairway
was not often used by guests. Guests
going into the hotel would always go
in the front way from the spring.
Judge Sweat and the lady did not
get out of sight before the shower
osme up and they turned back. The
morning Judge Sweat met the young
ladies' at the spring he walked off
vita the young ladies together.
There was nothing in the manner Of
the ladies' TO indicate that Judge
Sweat's presence was offensive to
them. 1t was about an hour after.
wards that Mr.. Faulkner came down
looking for the judge.
When Judge Sweat and the ladies
returned from tho stroll at the time
of the rain they entered the hotel at
the end next to the woods.
The parties aud witnesses in the
Sweat case were then excused.
Altogether the Investigation has
been extremely damaging to Judge
Sweat.

At this point Mr. Jake Beach again
took the stand. He said that Mr..
Collier said nothing to him about
Judge Sweat, though Judge Sweat
was frequently in his company. There
was no reason why Mr. Faulkner
could not have found Judge Sweat if
ne had wished TO do so. He never
heard that Faulkner wanted to see
him, and never hea.d of the Faux.
ner affair till the judge had left. The
back stairway Nas oarpeted and fur
nished just like the others, but not 50
wide. The others were very vice,
and this was comparatively narrow.
Mr.. Beach had nothing to do with
bringing Judge Smith or Senator
Mercer to the Spring, and had moth
ing to do with any effort to COM
promise the affair with Faulkner.
Judge Sweat went to the Wjgwam
as Mr. Beach'a guest.

Thomas put off the train either.
There was woman from one of the
rural districts of the county, accom-
panied by several small children, who.
gazed in open-mouthed wonder at the
train as 1t entered Stockdale yester-
day, it being her FIRST sight of an iron
steed.
Inc clouds were threatening at
Stockdale when the train left yester-
day and the projects for good rain
were excellent. Copious rains have
fallen throughout the surrounding
country, but none have visited the inn
mediate vicinity of Stockdale.
Mr.. C. III. Hanson, the editor and
proprietor of the Enterprise, was on
the grounds, the same jolly, courteous
old gentleman. Mr.. Hansons toast
to Stockdale and San Antonio is re-
sponded to by the Light with an ad-
ditional toast to the fair ones of the
former city.
Here's how Editor Hanson, of the
Stockdale Enterprise informs his sub
scribers that the the road has arrived:
Run here everybody! Everybody
runi There an internal great big
maverick right here in town that
belches smoke and spirits out fire like
a whale does water and sticks out
great bars of steel in front of it as it
goes. Run, run! Everybody rum

and let's throw the tafnel thing down

road"

STOCKDALE.

On arrival at Stockdale, as already
mentioned, the train was welcomed
by the blowing of steam whistles as
well as by the entire population. The
excursionists were escorted to the eel
ebration grounds, half mile away,
private conveyance being in waiting
for the Light reporter.
The celebration was held in the
yard of the public school house, in
which long rows of tables were ranged
where there was spread at II o'clock
plenteous feast of barbecued meat,
excellently prepared, with all the side
articles necessary for the occasion,
such as coffee, bread, pickles, ice wa
ter, etc.
The barbecue was conducted by
Stockdale's leading citizens, was well
carried out and reflected much credit
on the little burg, everything passing
quietly, with the exception of one or
two brawls between few country
toughS such as always congregate on
such occasion to stigmatize respectable
society, but they were quickly usher
ed out of the way and the celebrants
were thereafter uninterrupted.
The large and spacious school house
was utilized by the ladies as a re-
ception room, and in this there was

All the cotton gins along the line
were running yesterday, baling up the
fleecy article.

Miss Alta Peek, "a very charming
young lady and one of Layernia's sd

cursion.
City Editor Walton Peteet, of the
Express, represented that paper on
the trip. He was accompanied by his
charming wife. -
Mr.. S. H. Hall. proprietor of the Gulf

his family along. He returns in a
day or two ON business.
Mrs. l. L. Thomas, wife of Superin-

There is a big campmeeting in pro-
gress mt Sour Springs, at which a
large number of persons are camped.
1t closes Sunday when an excursion

Mr.. Dullnig says the expediency
with which the completion of the road
has been accomplished is largely due
to the contractor, Mr.. w. e. Teitze
and the constructing engineer, Mr.
Gresham.

AFTER BEING so NEAR AND
YET SO FAR, FOR SUCH
A LONG TIME.
Gulf Shore Railroad Performed The
Nuptial Ceremony Which United
The Two Cities And the Stock
dale Citizens Celebrate the
AuSpiciOus Occasion.

The continuous blowing of every
steam whistle in the little city OF
windmills at exactly 11:30 o'clock
yesterday announced to the citizens of
Stock0ale the formal entry of the.
Gulf Shore railroad, placing that little
burg in direct communication with
San Antonio by rail. =
Although the track has been COM
pleted into the place since last Thurs.
day, the formal entry of a regular
train, conveying passengers, was not
made until yesterday, when the aus
plcious event was most deliberately
celebrated by the worthy and indus
trious citizens of '""t place as well as
surrounding country.
THE TRIP.
Promptly at $50 o'clock yesterday
morning the train left the Gulf Shore
uepOt on lis first through journey to
Stockdale, having aboard about three
hundred San Antonians as passengers
as well as Gen. Manager George Dull
mig, Assistant Manager j. S. Fry, Vice
President J. G. Graves, Superintend-
ent |. L. Thomas, the latter being in
charge of the train, and a party of
invited guests, the officials and
guests riding in Mr.. Dullnig's private
car.
The run was made in exactly three
hours, remarkably short time, con-
the numerous stops and the
fact that the last ten miles of the track
is new and requires very slow run
ming. This, however, is the only bad
stretch of track ON the road, the old
track between San Antonio and Suth-
erland Springs being pronounced one
of the finest roadbeds in the state.
The scenery along the road was very
pleasing to the passengers, the broad
fields and green pastures stretching
out on both sides, presenting a de-
lightful view, and especially interest
ing were the tleecy fields of cotton,
which the haryesters were engaged il
The beautiful scenery about the
sour springs, where stop was made,
was also very attractive as well as
the view of the river, along the side
of which the road travels for quite
distance.
Altogether the passengers and espe-
cially the invited guests, through the
cOurtesies of the genial general mana
ger, Mr.. George Dullnig, succeeded in
passing away the time very pleasantly
until the train reached its destination,
three hours after its departure from
San Antonio.

THE CONCLUSION.

The festivities closed at the grounds
Immediately after the return of the

congregated as large a number Of
beautiful young ladies and girls, as
well as their elders, as any city in the
state can boast of, no matter what her
size be. They had all evidently turned
out for the occasion, too, for if Stock
dale has any more slowed away who
are as beautiful and charming to the
male heart as the ones VINO turned out
for the occasion she could enter "a
beauty contest with any city in the
country with perfect confidence of
carrying off first honors.
The young ladies were very enter
tanning and did all in their power,
which was great deal, in the way of
making the affair success, and in
this they succeeded admirably and to
these the Light reporter tenders his
sincere thanks for courtesies extend
ed in theway of entertainment as well
as pointers regarding the celebration
and especially to the Misses Leah Moo
dy, Cordia Turner, Lula Norwood and
Alta Peck, the latter being one of
Lavernia's society favorites.

THE ROAD.

This road is one of San Antonio's
home industries and deserves the aid
of the people. All the shares as we'll
as the officials are residents of San
Antonio, and especially the president,
Mr.. DullnIg, who has been recognized
VIII all that was done for the good
of San Antonio for the past thirty
years, when he was yet mere boy
Work of constructing rne sidetrack
at Stockdale is now under way and the
depot is to be commenced in day or
so. This is to be the largest and hand
soonest depot on the line. Work of.
constructing the telegraph line extern
sion has also begun and this will be
completed by the time the depot is
finished. r.l ssrrr
Mr.. Dullnig has placed orders for
some new coaches which will arrive in
about sixty days, when they will be
put TO use. The road anticipates do
ing large business this fall, both IN
passenger and freight traffic and the
expectations will not be very likely to
fall short. Two carloads of cotton
will be brought up today and the gins
are turning it out fast now. All the
merchants the place are ordering
fall goods and the lumbermen at that
place have ordered fifty carloads of
lumber.
Altogether the Gulf Shore is expect
ed to be the making of Stockdale and
the citizens can not do enough to ex-
press their qualification to the gener'
Gus management.

A BENEFIT.

The connection of San Antonio with
Stockdale by rail is a great boon and
benefit to both, places, opening up, as
it does, market for the many pro-
ducts of this faruiIe section of coun-
try and bringing them all into this city
and as soon as the road is extended
to the gulf, which President Dullnig
says will be in the very near future,
one of the wealthiest sections through
out the glorious. Lone Star state will
be opened up TO San Antonio.
Mr.. Dullnig says he has succeeded
in interesting capitalists in the enter
prise in the north and that there will
be no delay in extending the road on
ward &c the gulf.

Not HeIping the Cnusc.

The scenes enacted in New York last
night at the meeting called to urge favor
able early action by the Senate on the ar
duration treaty are greatly to be deplored.
Inc opponents OF the treaty, who seem to
nave captured the meeting. may have been
IN a certain sense within their rights in
presenting their side of the question. but
the better plan would have been for them
TO call meeting of their own to
express their views and adopt resolutions
in support of them. To attend in force
meeting called by the other side and turn
lis guns against itself smacks too much of
the methods of the ward caucus. As great
a question as arbitration between the fore
most two nations of the world deserved an
entirely different treatment
At the same time there is a word to be
said to the friends of arbitration These
meetings are based upon the allegation
that the Senate needs TO have a rod held
over its head about this business; that il
is maneuvering TO play fine game of some
kind-to give the treaty what in the YER
ndcular is called the double cross There
does not appear to be the slightest warrant
whatever for this charge Unfortunately.
the Seaate's doors are closed on the treaty.
but well-accredited intelligence from what
mas taken place both in committee and in
the executive session supports the claim
that the proceedings 50 far have been reg
uIar and without a suggestion of unfair
ness one way or another. The Senate is
simply insisting upon time in which TO give
10 the matter the thorough consideratio
its Importance demands
Friends OF the treaty in New York and
elsewhere would do well TO forego further
criticism OF the Senate. especially when IT
takes the form of unfounded accusatio
The men who compose that body have been
regularly chosen TO guard and consider the
interests of the whole country and they
are fully competent for their task. They
nave shown no disposition TO shirk this
particular labor They took up the treaty
very promptly when it was first received
and they have returned to the work quite
as promptly now that a new order of things
has begun Let the country look the sit
uatton fairly in the face. and give TO the
Senate that full measure of consideration
OF which il has shown itself to be in every
way worthy. Undue proclamation helps no
good cause. however much it may relieve
the impatience of worthy individuals.
