Battle between Lion and Bull at

Brutality of the Days Of Nero
Repeated.

El Paso, Tex, April 1.-The
battle Sunday between Numidian
lion and wild Samalayuca bull
was witnessed by thousands Of
people from all over the South
west aud Mexico. One fourth of
the spectators in the amphitheater
surrounding the bull ring were
American women. The battle
continued ferceIy for an hour.
The bull was not fatally hurt, but
the lion was gored TWEEN ty-five
times and will probably die. His
leg was broken and he was com
pletely vanquished in strength
and spirit: When the lion was in
capacitated, the Mexican authors
ties ordered the battle to be dis
continued. The arena was sufii-
ciently bespattered with gore for
the most sanguinary patron.
No such exhibition has been
given since the bloody days Of
Rome, when lion.bull fighting and
other similar contests were in flo
wer, and no ether like it viii

BIDS ARE SOARING
r
SECOND LOT FOR DECATUR AND
EXCHANGE STREETS HIGHER
THAN FIRST
ALL ARE PROMPTLY REJECTED
Members of Board Think COmpeti-
ton Is MuzzIed and That Wider
specifications Are
necessary.

Bids for the paving of Exchange street
from Cedar street to Third street, and
Decatur from Bedford to Beaumont, were
opened by the beard of public works
yesterday. This was the second time bids
have been received, the old board having
invaldated the first set by obligingly re-
leasing James ForTestal who was the
lowest bidder.
The bids opened were as follows: De
catur street, engineers estimate, so, 740,
Patrick Daugherty, $4,000; James Forrest
al, 81, 149; l.. G. Washington, $11,687; New

FOrrestal $19,7 1871; L. G. Washington s20.-
4S5; Newman & Hoy, $50, $50; Fielding &
Shepley $19,S57.
According to the bids opened yesterday
Fielding & Shepley are the lowest bidders,
James FOrrestal was the lowest. His bid
then for Exchange street was $18,800 and
for Decatur street $1,000.
In the case of Decatur street the bid
ders were considerably above the CITY
engineers estimate, ana it was decided
TO postpone consideration Of the bids I'M
til a later date. The board is of the
opinion that competition is muzzled I'M
der the specifications on which these bids
were received, and that until something
definite is received from the legal de-
partment relative tc the proposition to in
Vite bids on all classes of material and
select from the lot the lowest and best,
nothing will be done. The board is of
the opinion that this is the only solution
of the problem of high prices for paving

ITS BACKBONE BROKEN
so DECLARES WEATHER MAN, OF
COLD SPELL.

The worst of the present cold snap is
now over, in the opinion of the official
weather forecaster, who makes the pre-
diction that the temperature today will
be Slightly warmer than yesterday. The
cold was at its worst yesterday morning
at o'clock, when the conservative Their
mometer on top OF the weather office
indicated that it was 6 degrees below
zero, which was a drop of y degrees
from Sunday morning at the same hour,
and a total fall of IS degrees from Sat
urday at the same time From then on
the mercury began its weary clumb up
wards until it turned slightly colder in
the afternoon
The wind howled itself out during the
hours of the forenoon, and the afternoon
was comparatively still. Towards even
ing the breeze aWoke, but it was in
much milder mood. At times during the
forenoon the wind reached a velocity of
twenty eight miles an hour, and for some
time it hit up 4 twenty-mile- an-hour
clip. This was less than on Sunday.
and last night there were more positive
signs of cessation.
While it will be warmer today, the
weather man adds to the prediction that
spring and summer wearing apparel is
to be kept in the closet as the rise from
the present temperature Will be gradual,
q few degrees at a time. He thinks it
will be below freezing for some days to
co5Ese.

RULES FOR JUDGES
ASSISTANT CORPORATION ATTOR-
NEY GRIGGs HAS A SET
OF HIS OWN
VIEWS ON RESIDENCE PROBLEM
He Differs From Expressed Views of
Many Prominent Attorneys
and Says 1t Is Neces-
saFy.

For the guidance of the primary judges
today and in answer to their request for
light on certain disputed points, Assistant
Corporation Attorney Griggs yesterday
gave the following legal opinion:
Voters desiring TO participate in the
primary must be able to show thirty
days residence in the precinct in which
they desire to cast their ballots, in addi-
ton to the other qualifications as requir-
ed by the constitution. In brief, Mr.
Griggs holds that the same qualifications
as required at the general election must
be observed at the primaries. No one,
re says, can act as a judge at the primary
unless he is a qualified electOr and can
show thirty days residence in the pre-
cinct he has been selected to represent.
No voter can be permitted to write an
additional name on his ballot.
The residence problem was principal
among those questions put to the legal
department by the judges, but despite
the answer, there are a number, OF. Re-
publican judges who say they (Wiu usa
their own judgment in the matter, and if
a voter can show to their satisfacIiqn
that he will have been in the ward the
required number of days when the eleec-
ton comes, they will permit him to Vote.
Such was permitted by many judges I'M
der the old registration system, and they
say they see no reason to change it now.
IhlS does not necessarily mean lhaI par
ties outside the city will be allowed to
vote, but those who have moved from
enc ward to another.
The question of residence, owing to the
incOmpleteness of the primary law, is a
much disputed one. and it can be said
that the city legal department is not en-
tirely positive in the matter
A canvass of many of the leading att
torneys, Republican and Democratic,
shows that the great majority of those
best qualified to speak hold that thirty
days residence in the precinct TO be
voted in is not necessary.
