Mr.. Beach's Argument.

United States Attorney Beach referred to
Machen as the most powerful bureau chief
In Washington for ten years"
The roundabout way taken by Crawford
in cashfng the bearer" draft from I,orepz
was spoken of by Mr.. Beach as absolutely
damnfng."
The speaker said he would pass without
comment the criticism of his personal con-
duct of his public office. made by counsel
for the defense. Returning to the defend
ant Mr. Beach declared:
We can't let this canker of graft go M
rebuked. Was Crawford In on the whack-
up, was he In on this diyvy was he in on
the steal? How does he strike you, gentle-
men of the jury?"
The governments theory of the case Mr.
Beach pointed out Is that the ARRANGE
ment was made by Machen and Crawford.
and that Lorenz was middle man.
The United States attorney added that
there was no doubt about Crawford getting
fair show. His array of counsel Included
one OF the most distinguished statesmen of
the generation, and also one of the most
astute criminal lawyers who ever practiced
at the local bar.
The sole question" Mr.. Beach said In

IT is very evident from the pres
ent trend that the time is not far
distant when the question of the
disposition of the negro will come
up for final settlement. The press
of the country contains daily ac-
counts of assaults upon white wo-
men, and instead Of the fate of
these fiends, which is nearly al
ways settled by Judge Lynch, hav-
ing a warning effect upon the
black brutes, they seem to become
more frequent. The people of the
south will not forever allow this
state of affairs, and when the turn
ing point is reached the innocent
and the guilty will suffer alike.
We deport the Chinaman who is
guilty of no greater crime than
to reside a residence i'll these
great United States, but allow the
black brutes, who despoil our
homes. to remain and participate
in all the rights of citizenship
Whose home and family is safe as
long as such a condition exists? A
remedy will be found and it will
be drastic enough to meet the
exigencies of the .case. Of course
there are many good negroes, but
they will have to show themselves
in strict accord with the white
man in this regard. When this is
done they will not be molested.
But the rape fend and ruthless
murderer of woman and children
must 90 and that very soon.

GOING BACKWARD.
Think of Homeseekers Excursion From
Texas to the East.

The first homeseekers excursion
to the East is announced by the
Katy Railroad. 1t is not being adj
vertised. There is no use to adj
vertise for iomeseekers to go East.
The excursion will probably be
patronized all right by persons who
are looking for low rates of trans
portation to the old home, but the
thought of taking homeseekers out
of Texas to be located in the
States of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Michigan
West Virginia, New York and
Ontario is too ridiculous to be tax
en- seriously.
The inducement to these imag-
mary honeseekers who would leave
Texas for the old States is not 50
good as the inducement to real
homeseekers who desire to come to
Texas. The cost is one and one
third fares for the round trips,

COOPERATIVE PRINTERY
Will be Established by the international
Typographical Union in San Antonio.
Will Bust Printers Trust

T. D. Fennessey, organizer for
the union in the southwest, who
has been in San Antonio about a
week studying conditions, said
this morning that he had taken an
option on The plant of the Bauer
feind press and expected orders
from the headquarters of the inter
national to proceed at once to en-
large and establish the plaut.
The printing house here IS to be
a sort of working annex to the
typographical union home for
printers at Colorado Springs.
I want to say first, said Mr..
Fennessey, that the union CO.
operative plant will not compete
with any of the independent print
ers of Texas. We do not intend
to go into the job field at all, but
will do county, state and city
printing exclusively. In other
words, we intend to buck the print
ing trust, which we can prove
exists in Texas, and which has
erouged the state. counties and
cities for years on printing. When
the time comes we will show the
legislature and the public that the
prices charged for all kinds of Off
cial printing have been extortionate.
We will show this by our own
figures on the work.
The international typographical
has for a long time been consider
ing the establishment of a plant of
this kind. 1t was at first planned
to establish it at Colorado Springs,
where the union maintains home
for invalid and INDECENT printers,
but we found that the climate there
was too severe. We have looked
all over the country, and have
finally decided that San Antonio
is the most desirable location in the
country, from every standpoint.
The climate suits exactly. There
are a great many printers whose
health does not prevent them work
ing if they could work in the right
climate, and they are the people
who will man our plant here; large
Iy although any union printer who
is out of work will be given em-
ployment.
The typographical union has
plenty of money and the concern
will be run on strict business prin-
ciples. 1t will be run to make
money, but at the same time the
prices will be such as to knock the
trust silly.
1t is our idea to erect model
printing Office. The union believes
that men should work under the
most advantageous conditions, and
not in dark, unsanitary, badly ven
tilated buildings. Our building
will be erected on the most aprov-
ed sanitary plans.
In addition to doing official
printing, the international typo
graphical Journal, which is now
printed at Indianapolis, will be
printed here. San Antonio Ga

GERMAN SUGAR BEET.
Prospects for Ensuing Year Are Said
to Be Excellent.

Vice Consul Burrell of Magdeburg adj
vises the Department of Commerce and La
Dor that experts who have recently in
spected the sugar-beet producing districts
or Germany state that the prospects for
the sugar yield are excellent. On account
Of this years high sugar price considerable
more land has been planted in sugar beets
Nevertheless complaints are heard from all
sides that the proportion of sugarsin the
beet is from 2 to 5 Per cent less than In
former years. 1t is possible, however, that
this reduction may disappear if the present
dry weather with cool nights continues, SO
that, according to the opinion held here
Germany may count on a large yield OF
sugar. ..sL
cultivation of beet seed than was the case
eral that an average harvest is to be ex-
pected Some regions have suffered excess
sively from the severe weather this summer
and the extraordinarily fierce storms have
destroyed in some places two-thirds of the
plants. The development of the seed is
good. and promises high quality if it
should not be injured by long-continufng
rain. The harvest of 1904 was small. on ac-
count of the great drought. This, together
with the increase in the cultivation of the
sugar beet this year, has practically cleared
the entire stock, SO that sugar-beet seed
will be in demand this year, and 1T is as
serted that the amount which will be pro-
duced will be entirely sold out. 1t is, in
deed, doubtful If there will be enough to
meet the demand"

no fewer than seven persons. 1t looked / Ike
clear case of guilt, but the post Office Of

and the police sergeant in charge OF the

The Dewey Dry Dock.

The Navy Department has not as yet
reached decision as to the best method
and route for towing the new floating dry
dock Dewey from Baltimore to its proposed
station In the Philippines. Every possible
route has been gone over carefully by the
bureau of yards and docks. 1t is now con
siGered likely that it will be towed around
Cape Horn and thence to the Philippines
during a favorable season. the route by
way of the SueZ canal being considered too
long. and the chance of having trouble with
the canal authorities is considered as not
impossible The method Is also still IN
dorbt. 1t has been narrowed down to two
propositions however. One of them is to
let II contract to some towage company
under bond, but that would necessitate
special act OF Congress. The other and
more likely method is to have her towed by
naval golfers. Another. proposition that
had its origin In Baltimore is to keep the
dock at Solomon 5 Island in the Chesapeake
and establish q naval station there. but
this Is discrsdted at the department.

FRENCH WINE TRUST.
Combination to Control Prices and
Limit VINEYARDS.

Consul Bardel of Bamberg, Germany, re-
ports to the Department of Commerce and
Labor that wine trust of the wine grow
ers of Southern France is to be formed, TO
comprise the six important wine-growing
districts of Herault, Aude, Gard, Pyrenees-
Orientales, Bouche- -du-Rhone and Var.
"The growers participating in this trust
says he. ARE to sign contract binding
for fifty years. Each one has to state the
extent of his vineyards. which is not to
be increased without the consent of the
trust. The members bind themselves to
state the volume of their production and
to give the exact figures of how many
hectoliters were pressed In their establish
ments. as also how much alcohol their
wine contained Each grower obligates
himself, under penalty. not to blend wines
nor to sell grapes cider. He will be al
lowed to set aside a certain amount for
home use, but has to state the exact guam
tity set aside.
'The trust will buy up the whole harvest
previous to August 10 each year. The price
to be paid will be l franc Q9.3 cents) for
each degree of alcohol. to be paid for in
quarterly rates due in December, February,
April and June. This price may be ad-
vanced by participation in the annual profits
OF the association, for every member is to
get pro rata 80 per cent of the net profit,
besides 10 per cent for division among his
laborers- The net profit is to be fixed after
a deduction of 5 per cent for interest on
necessary for reserve and sinking fund
The spoiled wines and those not containing
more than eight degrees of alcohol will be
distilled by the company. The owners of
such wines receive the sales price of the
alcohol thus gained after dedueting costs
If overproduction is proved, the company
is to have the right to distilI a part of
the total output.
The capital for this trust is to be 800
WO.090 francs ($57 800 Oo0), provided the
wine growers participating guarantee the
production of 20,00300o hectoliters (52S3,-
40o gailons) per annum One half of this
money is to be expended for building eel
lars capable of holding 1926, 100 gallons of
wine. All wines are to be sold in sealed
bottles. This plan has created much en-
tnuSasm among the growers in all the
districts. They are, however. somewhat
AFRAID of the competition on the epars of
the growers outside of the six districts
named They intend, therefore, in the
course of time, to induce these outsiders
to join the trust

SPANISH CoINFRs CONVICTED.
Passed Many Franc Pieces on Shop
keepers.

The Spanish coiners. one man and four
women, have just been tried aat the Paris
assize court for uttering spurious money.
says a Paris dispatch. They are Manoel
Caudet, aged thirty: his mother, who Is
over sixty; the widow Fernandez; the
widow Marco; a blind woman and her
daughter Eva. These people were engaged
In coming French and Spanish silver coins
in Barcelona. In Paris they succeeded in
paiming off a good many spurious / and q
franc pieces on shopkeepers. Manosl Cau-
det and his mother were first arrested, and
they agreed to inform on their accomplices
The woman Caudet had come into France
with 5000 1-franc pieces. which she was
obliged to show at Marseilles, but the Gus
toms man there made no trouble and let
her start for Paris, thinking that she was
an eccentric old person who carried her
money about with her in small coins. At
the trial Manoel Caudet and his mother
were condemned to imprisonment for two
years. The blind widow Marco was dis
charged. but her daughter Eva goes to
prison for five years, the woman Fernandez
receiving the same sentence.

Projects of Two Great Business Es-
tablishments-Work at Port Sum
light and Bownville.

The governments daily paper, known as
Daily Consular and Trade Reports, has in
troduced half-tone illustrations. re-
cent issue contained an interesting report
by Consul Ernest l.. Harris of Chemnitz
Germany, on the efforts being made in
England to properly house the working
classes. 1t supplements his report on Ger
man workingmens homes. He describes
British efforts in the past commends and
compares them with efforts in continental
Europe and the United States He says:
Within the past few years the question
Of housing the working classes in England
has forced itself upon the attention Of many
municipalities. large land owners and
great employers of labor. The municipali-
ties in England are at present working
along one of two lines. The Is the
clearing of insanitary areas and rehousing
the people in large tenements, and the other
Is the building of wOrking-class cottages
on the outskirts of the town or beyonod the
limits Of the town. Unuer the so-called
housing of the working classes act of 1890
local authorities have the power to condemn
and clear large slum areas and rehouse the
persons so displaced. In London the work
must be done to the satisfaction of the
home secretary, but in all urban districts
the satisfaction Of some local government
board. This act further permits money to
be borrowed with the consent of local
boards, the period of repayment not to ex-
ceed sixty years. With this money land
may be acquired compulsorily and cottages
or houses built to house the artisans. In
England over one hundred towns or district
councils have adopted .,art of the housing
of the working classes act. Some of the
largest cities in Scotland have carried out
extensive housing schemes. Similar expert
ments have been made in Ireland, but not
under the above named act.
The housing of hboring and poor peo-
pie in England may be divided into five
classes namely, common lodging houses
block dwellings, tenement houses, cottage
flats and cottages.
Mr. Harris describes al some length what
has been accomplished by the municipali-
ties and SAYS:
