met today in reading the instructions
given Governor General Wood for
the withdrawal of United States SOW

anxious to maintain a million dollar
drydock at Havana, to establish and
maintain one or two naval stations, 10

and other important meteorological
work. but these details are matters
subject to negotiations and discussion
between this government and Cuban
representatives. The postal service Is
one important braach whose transition

There was only passing reference to
the recent Miles incident at the cabi-

manifested to ignore the case for the
present.

THE government Of the United

example OF good faith in dealing with
the weak government which 1t UNDER
took to rescue from oppression. 1t
has demonstrated Its generosity and
patriotism, and by the shedding Of Its
own blood has helped Cuba to break

seldom found. The people Of the Unit

Reunion of weIhausen's Battery.

The first reunion of Welhausen's
Battery took place yesterday at
LAGRANGE, Texas, and Captain Wei
hansen left here Monday to meet
and shake hands with his old COM
rades in arms. This company served
for four years and did some eXcell-
ent work.
The company was organized at
LAGRANGE, and mustered into SER
vice at San Antonio in September
1861. 1t was originally commanded
by E. Kreuzbaur, who resigned,
and was succeeded by Capt. Wei
hansen. The full enrolment of the
company was 100 men. The bat
terry was at first equipped with six
guns-2 12.pounders, 2 6-pounders,
and 2 24.pound HowiLzers. This
armament was afterwards reduced
to four guns,
The company was first ordered
to Fort Brown, on the lower Rio
Grande, thence to Galveston and
afterwards n Sabine While,
in Louisiana they surprised and
captured two Federal iron-clad gun
boats, the Granite City and the
Wave, on the Calcasieu river. The
gun-boats did net have steam up
and before they could raise it and
move out, they were attacked and
disabled. The Yankees lost in this
action the two boats, IS guns and
several hundred prisoners. The
battery lost about ten men killed
and wounded and had one gun
disabled.
The company kept the field until
May 1865 when they disbanded
and returned to their homes, dis
heartened but not defeated.

Tom Brown of Breslau, who has
been a candidate for commissioner
of precincts / and s, withdrnws
from the race this week MIR. Brown
entered the race strictly as a dem
ocrat and subject TO the democratic
primaries. His candidacy was SUP.
iect to them and he Intended to
abide by their decision. But since
the action of the Democratic Exec
utive Committee in changing the
primaries so that they are neither a
democratic or white mans pri-
mary, he has determined to with
draw in preference to making a
race that is not defined by the
principles of democracy. He has
been life long democrat, obeying
the majority rulings of his party,
and working for the principles that
it advocates, and if he csnnot run
for office under the democratic
party's standard, be will not run at
all. Mr.. Brown had many friends
who will regret his withdrawal.
He would have made a splendid
race and if elected would have made
an honest an economical coMmis-
sioner. The race is now Between
D. Gsrbade and J. M. Mikulenko.
