Joe Davis.

Joe Davis, who has been twice charg-

seph Williams on Il street. is cat last
at liberty. The charge was preferred
against him first in Justice McMaster's
court, and as there was not enough evil
dence to bind him over, he was dis
charged. Assistant County Attorney
Gunter then filed a new complaint for
the same offense in Justice Sommer's
court. Justice Sommer transferred the
case to Justice Kroeger, and it was
yesterday dismissed upon motion of the
county attorney. The reason stated for
the action was that there was a oues-

The case against Thomas A. Shannon
for the seduction of Cora Copenhaver

dismissed yesterday by Justice Som

The fact that Shannon married the

any liability to testify, and it was on
that account that the case was not
prosecuted. Shannon paid the costs Of
the suit in full.

HEARD AND SEEN
in TIMMONY'S COURT

Charles A. Schewed, who ran amuck
in the Dolly block Friday forenoon,
pleaded not guilty to destroying prop
erty. He didn't remember decorating
the walls with black ink and making
excessively merry with the transoms,
apparently, for no particular reason.
The circumstances We're briefly re-
lated, and the court concluded Schewed
was guilty.
THE defendant did not seem to be
in his proper mind" added the court.
and as this is his first offense. he is
discharged"
The opinion is that Schewed has had
too much police court. He is badly
crippled and has been seen shutting up
the stairway into the court room every
day for the past two years. This is the
first time. however. that he has stood
inside the railing.

THE sourlI,s MAIL.

And now comes Mr.. Moody, n Massachu-
sets republican. with motion to strike
out Of the postofhce appropriation bill tho
paragraph appropriating sl7l.2ss for spc-
ciai Southern fast mall facilities. For
so1ns unexplainable reason the house conf
.HAttee of the whole agreed with Mr.. Moody
and decided lto save the government this
sum.
This action Is not final. but the Southern
fast mail seems to be under the ban. and
unless there IS prompt action upon the
service of the South will be put long
step backward.
The appropriation for the Improvement
Of mail facilities in the South was made
IN the spring OF 1895. Through 1t fast
mall service was inaugurated from Boston
and other Eastern points to Atlanta. Now
Orleans and Houston. The people OF Hous-
ton and OF all South Texas are specially
interested In the running OF this service
south OF New York. With this appropria-
ton for special facilities, the mail from
the East arrives here practically day
earlier than It was received before the
appropriation was made.
\ The service y not only beneficial to The
suuth and the southwest, but to the New
England ana Middle States. 1t bring,
these sections In closer touch with tn,
: South, and Is Of great commercial ant
socisi advantage.
The loss Of this appropriation Will I'M
doubtedIy mean the loss OF the fast mai
service between New York and Houston
and this would prove a great detriment t,
& Al lines Of business. The value OF cxpc
diting mails is far too great for this gov
crnn1ent to hesitate over small appro
Yriation like this. and 1t is hoped and be,
