those who attend the third day. This
year some of the exhibitors COM

fruit exhibitors who had arranged
their fruit to make the best possible

display as soon as the premiums were
given. These displays should be kept
as first made until the close of the

their fruit and vegetables hoping to
increase their sales, will find IL to
their own advantage to comply with
the rules in this respect as a good
showing will do much TO advertise

NEW TELEPHONE
MRS. BRETT DOES NOT
PROPOSE TO GIVE UP.
She Has Amended Her Petition and
Will Make Another Effort to
Soften the Hearts of the Council.

While the city council may have in
tended striking the Knockout blow
at the new telephone franchise last
Thursday night it missed the mark.
and from the efforts being made by
the petitioners this week the matter is
more full of fife than ever.
Mrs. Annie NJ. Brett seems to be as
active and determined as she is earnest
and is still in the field preparing an
other petition which will soon be pre-
sented to the council for. action. When
the last petition was presented it ap--
peared that several of the aldermen
objected to certain features of the pc
tition and voted against it on that ac-
count. She and her friends are now
preparing another petition with the
Objectionable clauses eliminated and
will present it soon with a petition
signed by several hundred citizens
urging it's adoption.
1t has been reported on the streets
the council and force the granting of
her franchise. To learn the particu-
lars of this move and the exact status
of the telephone situation, a Herald re-
porter called on her last night and
learned her plans.
No, 1 am not going to mandamus
the council said Mrs. Brett, for
do not think it is necessary. The
members of the council surely cannot
refuse me the privilege of doing bust
ness in Ell Paso in the face of the
conditions that exist here now and 1
propose to try them again. l have
worked here now for nearly six months
and do not propose to give up my
scheme but l will have to make some
changes in my petition and when 1 do
1 do not think any of the aldermen
can object to giving me a chance. The
change l will make is in the matter of
charges for phones after the first
thousand. My last petition stated that
not over $50 per year would be charged
after the first thousand was reached. 1
have changed that and will not charge
over So additional to the $40 and $50
after the first thousand phones are
reached
Mrs. Brett seems confident that the
council will grant the franchise when
it is brought up again for she has now
changed the petition leaving out ev-
cry feature objected to by any of the
aldermen. She has secured letters
from every city in the north and west
where independent telephones are in
operation and is prepared to show the
council that her system would be a
benefit to the city.

SILVER is so SCARCE
Continued from First Pageo

Several years ago this same state
of affairs existed and was stopped by
the government which put an export
duty on silver money. This stopped
the money from going out and until re-
Gently there was plenty of money in
circulation The export duty was re-
moved some time ago however, and
the expectation of dollars began again.
1t is entirely probable that the gov
eminent will put the duty on again
which is about the only way to prevent
all the money from leaving the coun-
try"
Other bankers in Ell Paso have been
watching the situation closely and
have seen some of their customers,
who have investments in Mexico, lose
all they had. They were willing to
make loans but as they could not fur
nish Mexican dollars they were power
less to help them. One man in FL Paso
lost $25, 1000 on account of the demand
of a Mexican bank He had plenty of
security but the banks wanted Mex
lean dollars and would accept nothing
else. Consequently he had to sell his
property at sacrifice to meet the de-
mand.
1t is generally believed by bankers in
Mexico that the depression will end
soon since the government is lending
assistance, and business will again as
sumo a normal state in a few months.

News Of
the Courts
To Stop a Big Nuisance.

To Stop Big Nuisance.
One of the greatest nuiSances being
imposed upon the people of Ell Paso
is the playing of shiny on the streets
by small boys. Yesterday the wife of a
well known business man was coming
down Myrtle street in a carriage with
a nurse and baby when the horse was
hit and tried to run away. The nurse
, was also hit in the side by a small
stone. Chief Lockart says that the
parents are to blame for this and he
has instructed his men to arrest every
boy seen playing shiny in the streets
and he will be held in police station to
serve out a fine unless the parents stop
it, And if a boy is caught the second
time the father will be fined for al
lowing his son to endanger the lives
of the public.
Two Men Wanted.
Chief of Police Lockart has letter
inquiring for William Horn, supposed
to be in this part of the country. Horn
worked as a bookkeeper and hotel
clerk in Savannah, Georgia. in 1874 and
1875 and then came to the southwest.
and Chief Lockart can tell him some
thing to his advantage if he will call
upon him.
Another man could also learn some
thing to his advantage by calling upon
the chief and he is r. p. Hill of Los
Angeles, who left there in January 1900
for Ell Paso, to go into the mining bus
mess. Any information regarding
these two men should be sent to the
chief of police.
Fined for Talking.
Wong All Cup, a Chinese waiter in
one of the cheap chop houses on Ell
Paso street, was arrested last night
for using abusive language and was
fined S. and costs by Justice Ellis
this morning.
The Moore Case.
The Fitzgerald Moore case took up
the time in Judge Walthall's court all

ENGINEER LEWIS FREE

1t is this custom and not the law that
is SO Objectionable.
The United States government took
a hand in the laws of Mexico cover
ing railroad wrecks at Vera Cruz sew
eral months ago and set a precedent in
such cases. One engineer had been in
Jail there for two years without trial
and when the matter reached the state
department he was released and in

Mexican government more careful and
when the demand came for Lewis's re-
lease it did not take long to set him
