Compliments for Garner.

San Antonio Express.
Washington, Feb. s. Congress
man Garner of the Fifteenth Texas
district, is being congratulated by
his colleagues on the success which
has attended his efforts TO secure
river and harbor appropriations OF
the proper size for his constituents.
Mr.. Garner worked at a disadvant-
age in that he had no outside assist
ance. Practically every project
in Texas save Arkansas Pass and
the other minor ones in his district
were represented here at some
time or other during the session
by delegations or special agents
from the localities affected, who,
being thoroughly familiar with all
local conditions, were naturally in
a position 10 help their Congress
men materially. Mr.. Garner work
cd alone and the appropriations
secured by him, with of course the
assistance of Congressman Burgess,
the Texas member Of the commit
tee, for Arkansas Pass and the sur
vey FOR the intercoastal canal, in
Guiding special surveys of Turtle
Cove channel and the mouth OF
the Guadalupe, are testimonials to
his energy and ability.

MeIba In San Antonio.

Manager Sidney II. Weis of the
Grand Opera House in San Antonio
is out with the announcement that
he mas secured as his attraction for
Wednesday evening, February
22nd, the illustrous Queen of
Song" Madame Melba, and judg-
ing by the enthusiastic manner
with which the music lovers of San
Antonio and vicinity have received
this announcement, it is more than
likely that Manager Weis will be
shown that he did not make a rash
investment when he guaranteed
Madame Melba S., 100000 for a
single performance.
Aside from the fact that Madame
Melba is everywhere recognized as
the peerless song bird of the age,
her concert pleases also because she
is surrounded by an exceptionally
peerless organization consisting of
Mr.. Ellison Van Hoose, tenor, Mr..
Chas. Gilbert, baritone, Nils.
AIDE. Sassoli, harpist, Mile.
Llewolla Davies, pianist, and Mr..
{. K. North, futist.
1t has been usual at the Melba
concerts elsewhere to charge al
most prohibitive prices of admis-
sion; but as Manager Weis is plac-
ing this attraction in his Grand
Opera House more to please the
public which has so literally pat
ronized him, than TO make money
out of the investment; he has
decided upon the following reason

A LAWYERS RUSE.
The Way the Phoenix Park consplcss
tors Were Trapped.

The Way the Phoenix Park consplra
tors Were Trapped
In the beginning Of the prosecu
tons Of the Phoenix park gang the
Irish government brought forward 4
charge of simple conspiracy. They
suspected the real facts, but had nc
evidence. Mr.. Murphy (afterward
the judge), who was counsel for the
prosecution, hit upon a daring meth.
cd Of securing wha be wanted.
In applying to the magistrate fol
a remand to a certain date, he add
ed, putting as much significance as
he could into his words, "By which
time, your worship, ! have little
doubt that l shall have evidence
which no one can gainsay of the par
ticipation of the prisoners in a much
more serious crime"
AT this the prisoners in the dock
turned to each other in distrust, but
each declared in whispers that he
had said nothing. However, no
sooner was be in his cell than Cur
ley, one Of the accused, told q warder
that he wanted to speak TO Mr.. -,
the solicitor for the prosecution.
The solicitor at once went to Mr..
Murphy, who observed that Curley
would not make a good witness. The
object, above all, was to get Carey if
possible TO turn informer. He was
the ablest man of the batch and
knew more than all the others put
together. Whereupon the following
plan was devised:
Carey's cell door was left open,
and the warder and the solicitor (the
latter well known to Carey) stopped
there, and, the solicitor stepping
partly in, the warder exclaimed:
"No, Mr. -, that is not Cur
ley's cell. II is two doors farther
on"
Carey sprang up and burst out:
whats that? Are you going to
see Curley?"
Il am" said the solicitor. Gle
has sent for me"
ooh, that's his game, is it?" said
Carey excitedly. "You Stop here,
Mr. - I know a great deal more
than he does. / can tell you every
thing"
Thereupon the solicitor observed
that if Carey's evidence was accept
ed it must be on the condition that
he did not assist with his own hand
in the murder and that he must tell
no lies.
'If," said Mr.. -, eve detect
you in any false statement, we shall
at once put you in the dock"
Carey agreed, and then followed
the revelations which startled the
whole kingdom. Curley never saw
the solicitor, and so he was speaking
the truth as to the letter when he
denied that he ever confessed. Carey
was equally speaking the truth when
he said, with a laugh, as he passed
the dock in which Curley was boot
ing him:

leaders.
This Is the employers official an

proposed to the strikers were the re-
fnstatement of the union men as soon
as was expedient
The employers claim complete
victory, though different claims are
made by the unions. They declare the
settlement is practically agreed upon,
but the acceptance of the employers
terms by the transfers committee
will be repudiated by referendum
vote of the unions. After the team
sters' joint council has passed upon
the proposition there is little proba-
bility of any such opposition to the
settlement, however.
