IN THE UNITED STATES COURT.
An Important Railroad Cnsc Deing
Heard In GnlvrstOn.

Heard In Galveston.
Galveston, Texas, November TO- The at
tention of the Federal court has been oc-
cuIted all day with the case of tho Farm
crs' Loan and Trust company VS.. the Hous-
ton and Texas Central Railway company.
The following attorneys appeared in the
case: r. s. Loyett OF Houston for the pur-
chaser: l.. w. Campbell OF Waco for
Moron Bros. ond Henry X Mcaarg, the
bondholders. Major NJ +. Mot for the
complainant; Judge John NJ. Duncan of
Tyler, for the clerk OF the court In his
claim for commission on monsys deposited
IL the registry OF the court.
The matter came up on petition OF Moron
Bros & McHarg, the bondhoders, and the
complainant to require the purchaser of
the Waco and Northwestern division 10
comply with his bid. The petition of the
purchaser for the net earnings OF the
property subsequent TO the sale was also
presented The earnings OF the Waco and
Northwestern since the SAFE amounted 10
more than 100000. and the. question in
volyed in the latter petition was therefore
an important one. Agreement was made
by the different attorneys, after which
Judge Bryant ruled. holding that the net
earnings OF tho road properly belong to tho
first mortgage bondholders and not TO the
purchaser.
This decision was made about 4 o'clock
this afternoon. and the question OF the
clerk being entitled to certain commissions
was taken up, Judge Duncan making the
opening argument in his behalf.

in the local papers, mass meeting was
held in the city hall here yesterday af-
farmers and quite number of business
men, This meeting was originally sug
gested by Mr. L. H. Porter. who. IN view
of the gloom and depression which has
settled upon this section, due to the fact
that too much dependence has been placed
on the production of coLton, had formulat-
ed plan which, 10 has judgment, would
stimulate the cultivation of othar products.

fortunately while the meeting vas In
progress Mr.. Porter was sadly following
the remains OF his deceased vile to the
cemetery, and the subject ma which
he had 10 propose was not introduced.
Quite a number OF speeches were made,
however, and suggestions offered along the
limos Of more practical and self-sustainlng
farming than had heretofore been observed
less dependence to be placed upon Cotton
and more on meat and bread atuffs.
No definite action was taken. or reso-
lutions offered, but It is safe TO say that
some good was accomplished.
Hot politics in recent years has e0gen-
dered much estrangnment between town
and country. but their nter-dependence
is now SO manifest that no intelligent mind
can fail to see the great wrong which has
been wrought by these who preached the
gospel of hate" The writer called at
tention to the foolish prejudice which rad
teen planted and nourished by designing
politicians against banks and Demon
strated how cooperation with the home
banks would benefit the farmer, and his
remarks were kindly received.
