PoPULIST FUSION

Mixed State Ticket
This Fall.
Special Disp.tch to ths HsR AID

Special Dispatch to tn 3 81 sR.Lo
SAN ANTONIO, Sept. Is The elk
mem oers of the republican executive
committee who bolted yesterday, as
stated in these dispatches, were join
ed by the members OF the committee
recently deposed, making the number
of the mem bers favoring congressman
Hawley nineteen.
II these members we're illegally de-
posed, and there is not the shadow OF
doubt that they we're, then they
have q ms ority and their convention
will be regular.
They will OF course support Hswley,
and their con ven,ion met in the opera
house at noon, while Green's meetin &
convened in Market hall.
Besides having decidedly the best OF
the game in the larger part OF the exc
cutivs committee, HAwley has by far
the largest following among the dele
gates. The Green executive committee
seated all Green men ia the contests,
while the Hawley men did exactly the
opposite.
The populisGs have representatives
here seeking fusion. They want q
mixed state ticket this fall.
c. NJ. Ferguson was elected tempo
rary chairman OF the Hawleyites,
and r. S. Smith, colored, temporary
chairman of the Green faction. District
attorney Bee welcomed the former,
and Mayor Hicks the letter.
The attendance upon the Hawley
convention Is over thousand, while
Green has only four hundred. Half
the Hawleyites are white, while most
of the Greenises are black.

A Well Known Firm, Announces lt>
Failure.

NEw.YoRK, Sept. 1S.-Hatch and
Foote have announced their failure on
the stock exchange. The following
statement is made by Daniel B. Hatch,
board member Of the ia led firm:
My partner, Mr.. Foote, is lying
crazy and in 9 dying condition at his
home At Oceanic, N. ]. We discovered
since Mr.. Foote was taken sick that he
had been specializing on both sides of the
market without the knowledge of the
firm. and had lost up~ards of q quarter
of a million. This made it necessary
for US to find out where we stood, ard
for she interest OF our creditors We
maze az assignment. We attribute
Mr.. Foote's insane condition to the
tremendous financial load be has been
carrying for the last FIVE years. Our
outstauding contracts on the stock
exchange are slight, and no one will
suffer any loss."
The firm has been In existence since
1870. Foote is So yeas old.
