RESENTED INSULT TO FLAG.
PugiIistic Patriotism Gets Dan Nc
Namara Into Lawsuit-ThOmns
wedding Asks Damages.

The question, both of the propriety and
legal right to hoist the British colors
above, and on the same staff with the
Stars and Stripes in the United States, Is
incidentally raised in a civil suit now on
trial in the superior court. Daniel Nc
Namara, the defendant, strapping six
footer, whose ancestors were from the
Emerald Isle, resented this insult TO the
American flag by administering to the
alleged offender, Thomas Wedding, a
drubbing which the latter told the jury
yesterday rendered him, completely help
less for a period of three weeks. Weed
ing, who runs a boat house in North
Seattle, sues Mcnamara for N05OO for
alleged loss of time and permanent In
juries, resulting from the assault and
battery.
The case is on trial before Judge
Houser. According to the testimony of
the witnesses in the case, on June e.
1899, the plaintiff hoisted two flags on a
pole at his boat house. One was the
British emblem and the other the Stars
and Stripes. If the statements of the de-
PENDANT in the action were true Weed
ing, who is an Englshman, displayed his
preference for his native land by hoist
ing its emblem over that of his adopted
country.
when Mcnamara arrived home from
his work on the day of the display of
bunting. he took exceptions to having
his view OF Elliott bay obstructed by the
iiuttering of the British flag above that
OF his own country. He felt II incum-
bent upon himself to enter a protest He
testified that when he did so Wedding
informed him that THE British flag was
Il better flag anyhow"
This alleged answer precipitated a con-
flict.
The trial of the case occupied the whole
of the time of the civil department yes
terday afternoon and had not been con-
cluded when court adjourned for the day.

TEXAS WON THE CASE
United States Supreme Court Decides
Against the Oil Company.
TATECOURTUPHELD
The Opinion Does Not Cover All Points
Raised ms the Oh Company Has
Accepted Certain Conditions
Supposed by the State.

Washington, March 20.-The supreme
Govt Of the United States has rendered
;an opinion in the case of the Waters
1crce Oil company against the State Of
TEXTS, affirming the decision of tho court
cival appeals of the state Of Texas.
1t was charged, among other things,
that the Waters Pierce Oil company,
was u member of the Standard Oil trust,
as organized in 1852 and various other al
Legations were made, but tho court did
mot enter upon general discussion of
trusts, contenting itself with decision
that Texas laws are applicable to this
case
Tho opinion sustained the decision Of
the state courts to the extent of affirm
1ng them, and was thus opposed to the
contentious of tho oil company, but it
did this upon the ground that the state
laws imposed conditions which the oil
company had accepted, hence was with
out ground for complaint.

ANOTHER SPLIT.

Disagree at Hillsboro.
Fillsboro, Tex, March 20.-The Repub.
lican congressional convention after a
wild, stormy effort to get down to bus.
mess yesterday, was put out of the court.
house by Sheriff Bell. There was never
scene like it in this section Of tho
country, and the chances are that there
will never be such another The widest
disorder and confusion greeted the call
ing of the convention to order.
All day long there were rumors on the
street that tho convention was going tn
be Il hot one aud would more than likely
end in two separate conventions, and the
runorS churc0d To be true, but the scenes
leading upiI aud eliminating i'll the
split were moro exciting and dramatic
than anyone, even those participating in
them, was prepared to expect.
A few seconds after the courthouse
clock struck IL Chairman Clark, rap.
ping upon the desk in the district court
room, called the convention to order.
The room was well filed with delegates
and spectators and the buzz of conversa-
ton quiCted ut once.
Thu chairman appointed d. A. Oliver
Of Hill county scrgeamt-at-arms. Tie
then announced that the reading of the
report Of the executive committee was
in order, and instantly there were a
dozen objections. Tho chairman con.
tinund rpping the desk aud announcing
that w. Il. King Wondered the report.
King rose and began reading it, when
several delegates gathered on the plat
form around him amid the widest dis
order 1t was the same old fight be.
tween Mcdonald and Ferguson factions
Sheriff Bell took the platform and
nude the statement that unless order
was maintained he would clear the
room.
The fight went on more furiously. The
report was snatched from the hands of
King and given to the secretary who
thrust it in his pocket and held it.
Three times Sheriff Bell notified the
delegates that unless order was restored
the doors would be closed.
The fight still progressed and finally
Sheriff Bell ordered the room cleared
and two conventions the result.
Tho usual resolutions were adopted by
both conventions and officers elected.
The Mcdonald faction nominated A.
NJ. Cochran OF Dallas for congress from
the Sixth district. The Ferguson wing
NADIA no nomination.

MARRIAGE HIGH.
Fee of $1,000 Must lie Paid for Chick
nsaw Delle.

Denison, Tex, e 'ch II - All anbi-
tious white men who had an idea that
the best way to fortune was to marry
a Chickasaw belle and secure an allot-
ment of rich, Chickasaw land, will be
much disappointed over the new law
that is now in effect.
The law provides that all young white
men who desire to merry Chickasaw
girls must first prove that they are Of
good moral character and must pay %
marriage license fee to tho Chiclasaw
Nation'i in the sum of $1,000
This will keep many OF them from
marrying, but those who prefer half q
loaf to no loaf at all, will still go on to
the territory, select bride, bring her to
Texas and marry her under the Texas
laws. He will then be priviledged to
select an allotment of Approximately 600
acres of good land, half the amount he
might have secured had lie been married
under the Chickasaw law. Then, OF
course if he takes up an allo.mo It for
himself, he must put up bonus Of e.
an acre for his allotment, which the
new Chickasaw law means. The facs
that he has to prove himself Of good
moral character is the strong point o.
the bill.
Mr. Mckinley has just sent the law
back with his approval and it is now IN
operation.
