ORDINANCE IS VALID
JUDGE THOMAS HOLDS TEAGuE
 LAW GOOD.
Tn Case of J. ". Epperson City Court Judge Decides That saloon Clos ing Enactment Is Not Uncon-
 sttutIonal.

Associate Judge William H Thomas, of the criminal division of the City Court. yesterday rendered his decison in the case of the city against J. w Epperson, which he has been holding under consideration for several days. The decision has been awaited with considerable local interest, as it was regarded as involving the constitution- ality of what is known as the "Teague ordinance" forbidding the open sa- loon" on Sunday.
 This ordinance, Judge Thomas stated in his opinion, Is valid aud constitu- tional. 1t Is within the authority of the Council to enact. and should be enforced In the particular case against Epperson, however. the magistrate held that the affidavit under which the declaration, or complaint, of the prose- cutting attorney was defective.
 The meaning of the word, "open," as applied to saloons in the ordinance the Judge holds, carries liberal signifi- canoe, and must be obeyed literally. The object of the ordinance is to pre- clude the possibility of any temptation on the part of saloon Keepers. or pat rons, to conduct business on Sunday.
 In the case of Frank Rochelle. the negro who was charged with assault with attempt to kill Frank Mcbride, another negro, in shooting scrape last spring, the jury returned a verdict of guilty. as charged, after remaining out only fifteen minutes. This caseha appeared before the court several times, but each time has been contin- ued. This morning a plea for an ap- peal will be made by the defendants counsel.

Fight to Convention

Austin. Texas, July 2S.--The DEM
ocratic primaries were held through
out Texas today. A very large vote
was polled, estimated at close to 375,-
600, throughout the state. In the con-
test for governor there were four con-
testants. C.. l.. Bell, NJ. NJ. Brooks, o.
f. Colquitt and T. Nj. Campbell are op-
posing each other.
Returns received up to this hour,
$3.50 D. m, indicate that the contest
will be very close and 1t is not beIiev-
ed any of the candidates Will receive
sufficient number of votes to noml-
nate and the contest will have to be
fought over again in the convention.
Returns from the ninth congression-
al district are sufficient to show that
CQngressman George f. Burgess has a
lafge majority over w. w. Glass, his
oppenent. In the seventh district
CONGRESSMAN A. W. Gregg has defeat
ed j. j. Blount by safe majority. In
the second district Congressman M. r
Brooks appears to have lead ovei
former Congressman S. Il. Cooper, but
later returns may change this.
In the sixth district T. s. Henderson
of Milan county at this hour has a ma,
jority over Richard Mays and Judge
Hardy. both of Navarro county bu
later returns may show that he ha'
only a plurality, which would throw

iously wounded at the relief hospital,
broad daylight. held up, robbed and
shot Hickey in his office at Charlestown
today and then engaged in a street
battle with the police, in which Shiel
was manned by bullets fired by the
desperadoes. Such bold crime has
not occurred In Boston for many
years, and the police directed every
effort to capture the third of the
criminals, the other two having been
arrested as the climax of the struggle
with the authorities. Hickey was
robbed of $500 in cash and valuable
papers The two men taken into Gus
tody are George w. Everson, aged ~,
of New York City, and Fred Sacckatl,
aged 80, of Bridgeport, Conn.
They entered the coal office while
Hickey was alone and demanded nom
ey. The merchant refused their de-
mands and was shot through the neck
by one of the robbers and then reliev-
ed of his money.
Although badly wounded, Hickey
struggled with his assailants who fed
to the street, where they we're pursued
by Policeman Shiel. In an exchange
of bullets. the officer was shot In the
leg and rendered helpless. other po-
lice arrived and pursued the robbers
after the shooting and captured two

Sensation in South American
Republic Due to Discovery
Of Scheme to ALLEVIATE Gala
pagoS Islands,

Guayaquil, Ecuador, July 2S.-The
government newspapers have caused a
sensation here by the publication of
documents found among ex-President
Garcia's private papers. A document
found treats of the sale of the Galapa-
gos islands to the United States. 1t
appears that the islands we're first Of
fered to France. Senior Garcia's men,
orandum SAYS:
while at Washington visited pres
ident Roosevelt and inquired into the
question whether the United States
was disposed to take over the Galapa-
gos islands, paying Ecuador $1,000 In
gold for them, thus recognizing Ecua-
doris sovereignty over the islands. Mr..
Roosevelt replied that he would rec
ommend the proposal to congress ana
was sure it would be accepted, at the
same time offering to appoint the
American minister to continue the me-
gotiations in Quito A few days ago
Joseph w. j. Lee. the American min
lister to Ecuador, arrived in Ecuador" /"
1t appears that the Alvaro reVolu-
ton, which resulted in the overthrow
of Senior Garcia, ended the negotia-
tions. The official papers call Garcia
and his ministers traitors for trying to
sell part of the national territory.
A meeting was called at Quito, the
capital. last night to protest agains
this action taken by Senior Garcia and
his ministers.
The Galapagos islands are a grour
in the Pacific belonging to Ecuador
on and near the equator, 72O miles
west of the coast of Ecuador. They
consist of thirteen islands, the largest
Afbcmarle island, being sixty miles Ii
length
On Charles island a small colony oil
Ecuadorians was established forming
penal settlement. and this island
contains most Of the population, which
hardly exceeds 400.
