WHY HE SPARED SANTA ANNA
Houston Denied That It Was Because
He Was a Mason.

Galveston. Texas. Oct. ia spec
ial to the News from Austin says:
Within the last week a number of
letters have been written to the state
librarian asking if the rumor were
true that General Sam Houston spar
ed the life of Santa Anna because the
latter was a Mason.
The rumor had it that General
Houston was about to order the exc
cution of Santa Anna when the Mexi-
can general gave the distress signal
of the Masonic order. whereupon Gen
eral Houston spared his life.
Hearing that Ex-Governor James d.
Potter of Tennessee had been an init
mate friend of Houston, Librarian
Myers wrote to Governor Potter to in
quire about the rumor. A reply was
.recetzea from Governor letter yester
day. in which he said he had talked
about the rumor personally with Cen
eral Houston and that the latter had
told him he knew nothing of the
story that Santa Anna was a Mason
at the time of the capture.
He said he regarded Santa Anna as
a prisoner of war and felt honor bound
not to harm him while he was under

He Tells You How.

A weli-known authority on Rheuma-
tism gives the following valuable, yet
simple and harmless, prescription,
which any one can easily prepare at
home:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Mix by shaking we'll in a bottle; and
take a teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime
He states that the ingredients can
be obtained from any good prescrip-
ton pharmacy at small cost, and, be-
ing of vegetable extraction, are harm

This pleasant mixture. if taken regu-
larry for a few days. is said to over

Hartman Lost Votes.

Chicago, H., Oct. 16.-E. H. Harri-
man was yesterday. by an order of
the court, deprived of the voting
power OF 2S6.731 shares of Illinois
Central stock at the annual meeting
Of that railroad company, which opens
at noon today. The order of the court
was practically identical with the
modification asked by the attorneys of
Mr. Hartman. Both sides claim vic
tory, Mr. Fish because Of the enjoined
shares, and Mr.. Hartman because his
modification was secured.
The shares of stock ruled out are
those held by the Union Pacific rail-
way company. the Railroad Securities
company Of New Jersey and the Mu-
tual Life Insurance company Of New
York, against which a temporary in
junction was on Monday issued by
Judge Bell in the superior court.

AUSTRIA NEARS A
NATIONAL CRISIS
Special to the Herald.


Vienna, Oct 1.-THE fear with
which every earnest, thinking man of
the empire has looked forward to the
time when Emperor Francis Joseph
shall pass away is rendered more
acute each day by the bulletins issued
from the sick room of the aged ruler.
That the old Emperor cannot long sur
vive is no longer denied in official
circles. In vain does the Austrian
who loves his land, and wishes to see
it continue to exist in its present form
sing with all his heart:
Colt erhalte Franz den Kaiser!"
A successor competent to rule this
uneasy conglomeration of quarreling
nationalities is not in sight. With
Crown Prince Rudolf's death ended
the life of man who, although abund-
antly supplied with the frailties Of hui
manity, was nevertheless loved in
tensely by a large portion of the Aus
trian and Hungarian people. Had he
lived, temperance might have come
with mature years, and it is not i'm
possible that he might have develop
ed frmness and strength of character,
which, aided by the love his subjects
bore him, would have enabled him TO
dominate and rule them. By him,
however the wages of excess had to
be paid early, and the Austro-Hunga.
rian throne was left without direct
successor.
Archduke Francis Ferdinand, neph-
ew of the Emperor, was selected as
the heir apparent, but he was frail,

Legal Fight On
German Tariff.

New York. Aug. 1.-THE German
tariff agreement. it is now probable,
will be taken into the courts to bring
about judicial decision as to its va
lidity. This action is likely as the re-
suit of a decision by the general APP
rraisrrs here sustaining the advanced
value on an importation of chocolate
from Germany. Their decision was
based On and followed the decision Of
tht supreme court of the United States
in the Passavant case.
1t is understood the importers will
appeal on the strength of the German
tariff pact, proceeding that is desired
by all importers. as they wish to OBJ
tain judicial ruling.
While none of the general appraisers
has made any definite statement. it is
well understood that one or more of
them believe that the agreement in
practice will work toward the suppress
sion Of evidence as to values. and for
that reason are of the opinion that it
is Illegal.

OLD EMPLoYE
At Boston Sub-treasury
Is Under Arrest
Charged with Embedding Thou.
sand Dollar Bills.
Arrest Made After Another Man
Makes Up Amount.

Boston Aug. 16.-J. Warren Hastings
since 1864 trusted official at the Unit
ed States sub-treasury in this city,
was arrested today by secret service
officers on the charge Of embeZzling
from tie government $4,000 in cash on
June last. The arrest Of Hastings
came as a great surprise. 1t is alleged
that on June Z, three bills of $1,000 de-
nomination each were taken from a
package containing $1O5 900. which had
been prepared for shipment to the
United States treasury at Washington,
and which was to be retired from cir
cuIa tion. At the time Of the discov-
cry of the alleged embeZZlement the
officials of the sutS-treasury declined TO
discuss The matter
1t was known, however, that j. II.
Eass.Ir. the special clerk who count
ed tn money previous to shipment
was held technically liable, although
no suspicion was attached to him at
any time and he was forced to make
good the deficit. The shortage was dis
covered by one of the women clerks dl
the treasury department at Washlng-
ton. and for a time it was thought mat
or the money had been distracted dur
ing the transmission by express. An
investigation showed, however. that no
clerical error could possibly have been
made, and that when the package ar
rived in Washington the government
seals were unbroken.
At the orders of Charles H. Keep.
treasurer of the United States. secret
service officials were detailed on the
case.
After a prolonged investigation and
many conferences with Sub-treasurer
Edwin l.. Curtis. suspicion was direct
ed towards Hastings, who was the
vault clerk at the sub-treasury and
who had access to the vaults after
business hours. Hastings who is about
G5 years of age. and who lives in the
Back Bay district, was questioned by
the officers and finally admitted that
lie had nearly $1,000 in his box at the
sub-treasury.
During Hastings absence on his va
cation trip he was followed closely by
secret service men and at the same
time his box at the sub treasury was
opened and found to contain 1880.
ceived the money from Special Clerk
Nassar and who sealed the package
previous to shipping it to Washington
Although no suspicion was directed
toward Vassar, the forced restitution
On his part practically wiped away his
life savings. Vassar had been in the
department for nearly 40 years.
Hastings was arrested by United
States Marshal Darling and two secret
service officers He collapsed when he
was notified and it was some minutes
before he could be taken before United
States Commissioner Hayes for ar
raignmcnt. He was held in $4,000 bail
for the grand jury.
Bail of $4,000 was furnished for j.
Warren Hastings late today and the
sub-treasury clerk was released from
the custory of the United States Of
ficials. 1t is understood the bail was
furnished by a brother of the sub
treasury official. An attachment of
$4,000 has been placed on the money of
Mr.. Hastings found in the sub treas
ury vaults.
