SUSPENSION OF OFFICER
INDICATED THE PASTOR

AUGUSTA, Spet. 27.-The result Of the trial
of Policeman Randall before the police COM
missioners is the talk Of the town today. Never
before has such interest been taken in a police
trial. and Rev. F. NJ Hansons friends are to-
day congratulating his vindication, as the YER
dict of the commission IS regarded to be.
Rev f. NJ Hanson has just been called %
the pastOrate OF the Second Baptist church.
For some months past he has been engaged
in evangelistic work and last August conducted
tent services in this city. On the night Of Au-
gust 2s he found, on going to his tent to be
gin service, that the lamps had been broken,
\and he also found a man asleep on the organ
stand whom he identified as Policeman Ran
dali on duty on that beat. He reported him
and the officer was tried on that charge Sept.
the man asleep in the tent, and Randall was
acquitted. This gave color to the tnttmated
charge that the preacher had brought the
charge against the officer maliciously.
But few days later Grin Walker was charg-
ed with perjury. He was tried before Judge
Wall, and 1t was proven that on the evening
in question he was at another place a mile
distant He was acquitted on the technical
ground that the police Commission had no au-
thority to administer oaths, and that therefore
he had not committed perjury in testifying 70

TEXAS BADLY DAMAGED
BY TERRIFIC RAINFALL

HOUSTON, Tex, Sept. 27.-During the
past twelve hours there has been terrific
rain fall over the whole of south and a
portion of east Texas, which has done
great damage to the open cotton, washed
away innumerable small and many big
bridges. drowned cattle and caused other
destruction. The small streams are re-
ported out of the banks in every direction
and the railroads have suffered heavy
damage to their tracks and bridges.
At Kennedy it is estimated that fifteen
inches of water fell. Many people were
compelled to remove from their homes.
At Rancho, a sixty-foOt steel bridge was
wrecked by the flood and carried half a
mile down the stream. Several houses
were washed away but their inhabitants
got out in safety.
A great number of cattle and horses
were caught in the bottoms at various
points and were drowned.f
Gonzales county especially suffered
heavily in this respect.
The loss of cotton cannot be estimated,
because of the large area affected. Pick
ing had been in progress Tor some days
bat all that was not removed from the
bolls is a total loss, being beaten into the
ground The rain has thoroughly relieved
the long existing drough in the cattle
country along the lower coast.

easiness is felt among jobbing grocers Of
this city over this seasons corn pack, ac-
cording TO the Journal of Commerce. The
situation owing to the almost unprece-

the early market falling off in the New

worst in years. Many leading jobbers
bought heavily for future delivery from
the packers and also sold heavily to the
retail trade. They are now wondering
where the goods will come from to fill
these orders or how they will satisfy
their customers. -
Prices have shown a marked increase.
