To the Editor OF The Post,
In an afternoon paper today a card an

who wrote It, but In its place the words
Southern Pacific Engineer" Tnis makes
1t an anonymous communication. II there
is anything ! admire 1t Is a square and
open fight and the man who does not be-
iietc III square and fair fight always
screens himself behind an anonymous sig
nature. Usually. | would pay no uttel-
tion 10 same, but my friends think 1t
ought TO be answered and In Difference to
them ] take pleasure In doing so.
] take 1t to be o, typographical error
where the article states that ! am Il mem

Engineers. never was and never AIMED
to be member OF this order. ! nrn il
member OF the brotherhood Of Locomotive
tlremen. The article further states that
voluntarily offered TO take the place of
striking engineers In case engineers did
strike, This ] brand as AN infamous lie.
challenge the writer OF this article to
make proof OF same. In concluding this
brief reply, | refer the good people of

ADDITION TO THE CITY.
Ex-coMPTRoLLER or THE CUR
RENcY EcKELS INTERESTED.
Said that the Chicago Capitalists Asso-
eated With Him Win Make Other
Purchases.

Something like three weeks ago The Post
contained paragraph to the effect that Il
big purchase OF suburban property had been
made by some prominent people and that
great Improvements would be made on t.,
The matter has gone along and each day
new rumors have been added to 1t. Finally,
however. the matter has reached point
where 1t may be stated that 1t Is fact
The purchase, which comprises part of the
Obedience Smith survey, has been consum.
mated by party Of Chicago capitalists,
among whom Is the former comptroller OF
the currency--Eckels.
This speaks volumes for the future of
Houston Chicago capitalists do not have
to 90 outside OF the Windy City to fluid
use for their money Unless great returns
are promised. That party Of them have
came as far South as Houston to make an
Investment Is evidence conclusive that they
have unlimited confidence in the future OF
TINS city. The site that they have bought Ia
beyond the Fair Grounds addition and north
OF nam street They paid. SO II is under.
STOOD, Soo,oOO FOR what they have already
secured, and expect to enlarge their hold.
| ings. 1t ~ therefore evident that they an.
tIclpate that the city Will grow very fast,
because thcy are not men who want to in
vest and walt for slow returns
Ii Is said they Will plat the ground they
nave bought, make all modern improve,
ments and have all tho city facilities, thus
making II a desirable place of residence
IL Is understood that MCssrs George l..
Porter x Co negotiated the deal, but they
declared they were not in position TO con.
brn or deny any OF the reports.
Ihere were rumors of other deals yes
terday, but they could not be chased down
70 point that would warrant their pub.

TOM l. RAILEY.

There is a great deal OF stress laid on
the qualifications OF some Of the candidates
for Justice OF the peace. ! will state that
there are none better qualified In my opin
lon than Tom l., Ralley. He studied law
In this city and received his certificate 10
stand tho examination. but owing TO his
financial condition about that time he was
forced to accept position under the late
Dr. Rutherford as quarantine officer. and rs
TO how well he filed that position the hles
OF the old Houston Post will show. He
was almost daily compllmented for his
strict adherence to duty. He afterwards
was elected sergeant at arms of the Sew
enteenth and Eighteenth legislature and
was the only officer that ever received n
vote of thanks from a Texas legislative
body for efficiency and courtesy. In the
late contest Tor reform government Tom l..

In fact the Fourth ward, to which he was
assigned rolled up one OF the largest ma
jorities OF any ward In the city, which was
