BATTLE AT A COURTHOUSE.
a scene of BIOOdshed Worthy of the
Earlier Days of the Lone
Star state.

Houston, Tex, June 5.-At San Az
gustiue, yesterday morning, pitched
battle between the Wall faction on the
one side. and the Brookses on the other,
resulted in the death of Felix G. Rob-
erts, his brother Sidney Roberts, and
the fatal wounding of Noel Roberts,
sheriff of the county, and brother to
the dead men.
The feud grew out of politics, and
has been brewing for some years. y
few weeks ago Ned Wall, the sheriff,
was shot and killed by King Borden,
at San Augustine. Borden fed, but
afterward surrendered. and was ad-
mitted to bail. Noel Roberts was APP
pointed sheriff. Last Saturday Eugene
Wall, brother of the dead sheriff, shot
TO death Ben Brooks, kinsman of Bor-
den. Yesterday the factions met when
the examining trial of Wall was to he
held, and every man came to the court
house armed.
Hostilities began with the appear
ance of Sheriff Roberts and his broth
ers who fell at the first volley from q
score of guns. A few scattering shots
were returned by the Wall factionists
but did no execution. Sheriff Roberts
was removed to his home, where hi
| died in short time.
Application was at once made to thu
governor for troops, and the Ston'
! Fort rifles were ordered from Nacog
doches.
There is much excitement, and NOR
trouble is feared Both factions ar
large, and composed of nervy men
Eugene WALL the leader of his fac
ton, is 2G years old, and has kille'
four men in as many years.

CASUALTIES OF FILIPIN0S.
uenort of Gen. Macarthur for SUBJ
mission to the United states
senute.

Washington, June 5.-Secretary Root
Yesterday made answer to the senate
resolution inquiring as to the number
of possible killed and wounded, and
the number of prisoners taken since
the insurrecrion began. Having no de-
tailed information on the subject, the
secretary cabled the inquiry to uep'
Macarthur, commanding at Manila
and received the following response
which was submitted to congress:
Manila. June 4, 1900.
"AGmtant General, Washington:
with reference to your telegram OF
e2d ult.: Filipinos killed, lO,IS0;wound'
ed. 2.0l4; captured and surrendered
1924; number of prisoners in our
nossessiop. about two thousand.
NC systematic record Of the Filipino
casualties at these headquarters Fore
going. compiled from a large number
of reports made Immediately after en-
gagemcnts is as close an approXlma-
ton as now possible, owing to the
wide distribution OF troops. y more
accurate report would take weeks to
prepare.
"Thc number reported killed is PROB
nbIy in excess of accurate figures,
while the number wounded is probably
much less, us Filipinos managed to re-
move most of the wounded from the
field, and comparatively few feh into
orr hands. OAicers ct high rank and
dangerous or suspicious men have
been retained as prisoners; most othef
men discharged on field as soon as dis,
armed. Propose TO release all tu'
yery few prisoners at an early date.

Collection of POSTAGE stamps Intcnd-
ed for the Paris Exposition 700
Valuable TO Risk Abroad.

Washington, June j.-There is doubt
rs to whether the collection of United
States postage stamps intended to be
exhibited at the Paris exposition VIII
be sent to France for that purpose. II
has been learned that three sheets OF
proof" stamps were lost after being
sent to the exposition, and there IS
some question as to whether it would
be safe to trust further collections OF a
similar kind there. The exhibit which
had been prepared is very compre-
hensive one, including samples OF
nearly every stamp issued by TINS
government To accomplish this IT was
found necessary to borrow stamps to
the value of about twelve hundred dol
lars from a private collection 1t is
said there has been but one clerk in
charge Of the post Office exhibit at
Paris. The branch American post OF
fee there, however, is looked after by
| a number of employees.
