MISCELLANEOUS
A Now Brownsville Witness.

The inquiry being conducted by the
senate military committee into the ne
gro soldier riots at Brownsville, Tex,
took new and decisive turn when
Pauline Preciado. publisher Of the
Provenir, a Mexican paper Of Browns
Vile, told Of being an eye witness to
the shooting of Barkeeper Natous of
the Ruby saloon on the night Of the
riot and positively identified the assail-
ants as negro soldiers. One Of the bull
let's hit Preclado in the hand and an
other tore his clothing. This testimony
is all the more startling because it was
not included in the case made out by
the citizens and officers upon which the
president discharged the entire battaI-
lon.
Another witness. Confectioner Elkins,
said he saw the firing OF several shots
by negro soldiers in the street below
his window in a hotel

Senator Foraker promptly challenged

supposed that party organizations were
not the personal property of individu-

choice for the presidency would be
