Quarantine DCC|QTel OIL.
All Trains Are.Running Gu Schedule
Time.
DR.. Swearinger TelegraphS That
Not A Case Of Yellow Fever
Exists In Texas.

The yellow fever quarantine against
Houston, Victoria and Beaumont was
raised by Bexar county this morning.
This was done in accordance with
telegram received by DIR. Berrey from
DIR. Swearingen, stating that there is
positively not case of yellow fever
in Texas, which conclusion was reach
ed after careful Investigations of the
state health department. kilograms
have been sent out. recommending that
quarantine against Houston can be
raised with perfect safety and advis-
ing that immediate notice will be
given If a single case of yellow fever
develops.
Acting upon this DR.. Berrey the first
thing this morning ordered the county
inspectors to release all persons from
suspected infected Texas cities, who
were held in quarantine on the coun-
ty lines.
The Southern Pacific railroad which
issued orders last night, annulling all
passenger trains between here and
Houston, Immediately cancelled the
orders, and the trains resumed their
runs on schedule time today. The
Arkansas Pass has done likewise, and
all trains are running with their usual
regularity and promptness.
Commercial Agent Fahey, of the
of the Southern Pacific, received the
following kilograms this morning
from General Freight Agent H. A.
Jones:
I'VE can receive and forward all
character of freight for points on T.
& N. o., Houston and Orange inclu-
sive: also all stations on S. & f. T.
division north of Beaumont and Sa-
bine Pass"
Freight Elk. S. Sci Norte, now
nearly all unloaded and large portion
has passed Houston for San Antonio"
The people who were held in quaran-
tine have the profoundest regard for
DIR. Berrey for the courteous manner
they have been treated. He left moth
ing undone to render them all the COM
fort possible and gave his personal at
tention to them. The Southern Pa
cific railroad crews are especially ap-
preciative of their treatment by DR..
Berrey as well as the railroad COM
pany. They were comfortably pro-
vided for by the railroad company,
and elected Colonel Al Dupre a COM
mittee of one to express their thanks.
while we are glad to get back among
the living" said Colonel Dupre this
morning, 1--WE would just as well
stayed a month in quarantine. Every
thing was coming our way, and we
have no kick to register on any num-
ber." An instance of how the quaran
tined crew spent the time is cited,
when Colonel Dupre rang up Mr.. Frank
Arnold, the popular manager of the
Lone Star brewery, for a sample of his
best. 1t is needless to say that Mr..
Arnold was equal to the occasion, and
responded with a key with compli-
ments. That instantly relieved all
further suffering.

SALOON BURNED.
Was Evidently of Incendiary Origin.
Boys Suspected.

Boys Suspected.
This morning at 2:3S o'clock in
alarm Of fire from box No 124 was sent
in and the department was quickly on
the scene, a fire having mysteriously
originated in the saloon of John San
ders, in a one-story iron clad building
at No. 222 Southe Flores street, former
ly kept by a man named Kelly.
The saloon and contents were COM
pletely destroyed, though the adjoin-
ing building a vacant iron clad store
house was save with but little dam
ages.
The proprietor retired in the rear of
the saloon at IL o'clock p. m. and was
awakened by an explosion and the re-
sultant fire, having only time to escape
with what clothing he could grab.
The saloon man carried no insurance
and his loss will be about $500. The
building was owned by Mr.. George
Stumberg, who says his loss will be
about S12e0 to $500, with only $500 in
surance.
A man in the Stumberg campyard
states that directly after he heard the
explosion he saw two boys run out
the alley into the street and this shows
the fire to be of incendiary origin. A
can of coal oil was found in the saloon
this morning. with the spout and ham
die melted off, but the contents were
intact.

OPENING DAY AT JoskE BROS.

According to announcement, Joske
Brothers had their Fall and Winter
opening of Millinery, Dress Goods,
Silks, Laces, Els, at their big Store"
today. The name of Joske Brothers
is synonymous of up-to-date stylish,
fashionable and luxurious millinery,
dress goods and wearing apparel and
consequently a reporter for the Light
on entering this abode of fashion found
the store crowded with ladies buying
and viewing the pretty novelties in
nearly every department. The dress
goods display, including silks and all
the latest imported and domestic eff
fects in tinsel and brocade woolens
and other fashionable novelties were
shown to advantage and reflect honor
on the buyer for the big Store" for
his good taste and selections. The
Lace department attracted a great
deal of attention, especially real lace
handkerchiefs, the price of which were
thirty-five dollars each and some real
Irish point and Valenciennes lace at
fifty dollars yard.
The Millinery department up stairs
was a veritable garden of loneliness,
where the taxidermist as well as i'm
itator of all that nature produces in
flower life reached their highest art.
The imported bonnets and pattern
hats were the ''quintessence of chic
etalage" and ostentation, and as the
ladies tried them on the effect was
such as would make ones self feel in
the presence of fashion plate only
a more animated scene. The opening
day at Joske Brothers will be the talk
of the town for some time to come.

A Large Crowd Saw The Games.
Which We're Interesting Contests.
Turner'S VS.. Casinos.

The Alamos took a double header
last night and are now at par with the
Missions for second place in the bowl
ing tournament The Alamos had the
Ivys for opponents, and while Citing
er's men were defeated they have moth
ing to hang their heads for.
In the first game the Ivys bowled
well from the start, but the Alamos
made wonderful spurts. in the second
and fifth innings, which the visitors
could not overtake, and thereby hangs
the tale.
Had the Ivys bowled as well in the
second game as they did in the first
the Hayseeds would be without COM
pany today for tail end honors. But
this is idle conjecture. The fact is,
the Ivys went to pieces in the third
inning and the Alamos took advantage
of the golden opportunity and BOWED
out a victory, which appeared as easy
as holding up quarantine victims in
San Antonio.
The Ivys realized that they were out
classed and yielded gracefully. This,
however, is only due to lack of prae-
tice. Captain Gittinger has the ma
terial, and with a little steady prac-
tice the Ivys will make it interesting
for any team In the league. ts~AN
A large crowd witnessed the games,
including many ladies, and notice
able feature was that there was no
"hurrahing,' which Umpire Brian
stopped in the beginning. 1t was not
a partisan crowd, and both sides re-
ceived their share of applause for good
work. The ladies especially took
great delight in the games and APP
plauded literally.
The teams were lined UP as follows:

nouncing that Johnson had pleaded
guilty to committing adultery and had

30 days was the first intimation re-

fully received at the governors office
as it looked like a trick to defeat the
action of the governor in matter
where his duty demanded that he honor

How Mr.. Fristoe viii get around the
Jail sentence is matter of conjecture.
He is saying very little ON that score.
In fact, he pretends To know very lit
tie about this case SO far as the Mis-
souri, occurrences arc concerned, be-
yond claiming that the stories of mob
violence are fakes.
In order to get Johnson resort might b.
had to certinrari proceedings in the dis
trict court Of AHssoula county TO ques-
ton the action of the Justice OF the peace
or application might be made 10 the act

at least 10 days and then the board of

toe says he will present the warrant for
Johnson To the sheriff as soon as he
reaches Missoula tomorrow ard upon
the refusal OF that officer to give up the
man he will open up communications
again with his governor, so il is very
plain the END is not yet.

that Johnson will be fully protected
from mob violence. Kindly answer
During the afternoon this reply came
from the Missouri executive;

In order to take every precaution be

he is absolutely safe from danger
With these two messages matter of
record and with a regular requistton,
the lieutenant governor granted the re-
quest of the Missouri executive. This
he did by issuing a warrant for Joseph
Johnsons arrest. Then he sent this
telegram to Governor Stephens as a
sort of a final message in rather IA
