Fl. WORTH CONVENTION.
CattIemen Will Meet There
This Month.

The Texas Cattle Raisers asso-
citation will hold its twenty-fouTth
annual session in Fort Worth, on
the 18th and 14th inst. The asso-
citation represents more invested
capital than any commercial or
industrial organization in the
world. 1t is conservatively esti-
mated that the membership of the
association has property, includ-
ing cattle and ranches, valued at
over two hundred million dollars.
The meeting each year of this or
ganization is looked forward to
with a great deal Of interest by the
cattle men, not only of that state,
but the live stock men of other
states as we'll.
The attendance at these gather
ings each year has always been
very large and numbers of visitors
from outside states have been
present. 1t is generally conceded
by the stockmen everywhere that
the session will be the largest in
the history OF the organization. A
large number of letters have been
received by the management from
persons in various states reserving
rooms, expecting to be on hand.
Each days mail is flooded with ap-
plicaiions for accommodations, show
ing beyond any question of doubt,
that the gathering this year will
exceed anything in the nature of a
convention ever held in the state
Fort Worth is prepared to take
care of every visitor; the number
of hotels has been increased and
the citizens of the city are prepared
to accommodate fully eight thous-
and people. A rOoming COM
mittee has been appointed, of
which Mr.. w. L. Ligon is chair
man, and he is now busily engaged
listing rooms of citizens who have
agreed to throw open their homes
to accommodate the crowd. Dele
cations will be there from New
York, Chicago, Kansas City, st.
Louis, ST. Joe, Denver, Omaha,
Wichita, Kan. land Vinita, arrange
ments having already been made
in some of the cities named for
private cars.
The citizens of Fort Worth have
arranged different entertainments
during the convention. They will
include 8 ball, which will be given
in a large hall that will accommo-
date fifteen hundred couples, by
the Mystic Knights of Bovinia,
social order which bears the same
relation to the live stock men that
the Hoo Hoos" does to the lum-
Der men. This ball will be given
on Tuesday evening, and will be
followed by a "smoker" on We'd
nesday night.
Arrangements are now being
consummated for a big parade on
the night of the Nth. 1t will be
patterned after the Mardi Gras
given at New Orleans, and prom
ises to be a most brilliant process
sion. In addition to these attrac-
tions, the different club rooms of
the city will be open to the visit
ors and they will be shown every
courtesy possible.

A CORkSCREW BOAT.
Brooklyn Man Claims Great Things
for His Invention.

New York, Dec. 30. james Gresham,
of Brooklyn, has found capital to de-
monstrate the commercial value of his
corkscrew boat for which is anticipated
a speed of 80 miles an hour. A syndi-
cate of New York capitalists has
agreed to furnish $4,000 to build
small boat on the corkscrew plan, with
the further understanding that if it
demonstrates it's ability on a CONNER
cial scale to approximate the speed
which the models have reached, the
syndicate will furnish sufficient capital
to build a small boat. The inventor
promises that his craft will cross the
Atlantic in less than three days.
The vessel, the construction of which
is being arranged for at the Newport
News shipyard, is not intended for pas
senger service, but only for the con-
veyance of mail and fast freight and
for use at life saving stations. 1t is so
constructed that it can penetrate the
surf or the waves of the toughest
weather. The boat is cylindrical in
shape, with serpentine tiange like a
corkscrew extending from bow to
stern, and the outer she'll revolves
through the water, while the inner
compartment maintains it's equipoise.

HostiIitIes Renewed.

Kingston. Jamaica, Dec. 29-Colom-
bian advices say the 'endeavors to
effect compromise between the gov
ernment and the Insurgents have
failed resulting in a renewal of hostil-
tiles. On the Pacific side both parties
are marking time, while on the At
lantic side severe fighting has occurred,
The government troops, it appears,
broke the truce and attacked the in
surgents near Baranqullla, who re-
treated after stubborn battle. The
government forces subsequently fell
into trap and suffered severe losses.

ANOTHER VICTORY.
Americans Completely Route the In
surgents in IL Battle.

Manila, Dec. 2S.-Col. Lockett, with
force of $500, including artillery, at
tackled Wednesday morning a strong
force of insurgents intrenched in the
mountains near Montalban, about five
miles northeast of San Mateo. The
enemy was completely routed, the
Americans pursuing them through the
hills amid which they fed in every di-
rection. Four Americans were wound
ed. The Filipino loss was large, re-
sulting from a heavy infantry and ar
tillery fire for three hours into the
trenches.
A dozen lines of insurgent trenches
covered the steep trail through the
hills and likewise the valley below,
along which the Americans passed.
The main attacking party consisting
of the 10th volunteer infantry, a troop
of cavalry and artillery, Col. Lockett
commanding in person. The rest of
the command operated from remote
points in an endeavor to carry out Col.
Lockett's plan of throwing his lines
around the enemy and thus cutting off
retreat. The nature of the mountain
Gus country made it mpracticable to
execute this movement successfully.
