Small Margin in Referendum Vote

Municipal Traction Company is operating the local
street railway lines upon three-cent fare basis
was defeated by a majority Of $40 in the referen-

upward OF 75OOn.
The defeat OF the franchise may mean that the
railway property will revert its original owners
and that the old rSte-of-fare strife which lasted
seven years. will be renewed The only alternative
Will be the city Council to grant a new fran
chise at once. which VIII save the property to the
Municipal Traction Company.
II is stated by unprecedented observers that the
franchise was given not much upon the issue
involved upon the general dissatisfaction of the
public with the service of the operating company.

u tx book 81 consulted, but
i'll that several pairs OF odd
pants and perhaps several overcoats
will be missing when the stock is
checked.
Entrance was effected through a
rear door, from which one of the
large panes of glass was broken, and
the fact that sixshooter scabbard
was found on the ground just outside
the door, leads to the belief that the
pistol was used as hammer to break
the glass. The intruder had tried to
force the window in the office of the
concern, but owing to the interior
ence of several iron bars across the
opening he could not raise the lower
sash sufficiently to admit ingress. A
glass in the window was broken and
the fastening of the sash showed
that 1t had been tempered with.
The sheriff's department is work
ing on the matter.
The burglary occurred at an early
hour Wednesday morning, and was
discovered when the store was open
ed for business at 1880 o'clock.
The man who entered Webb Bros.
store last night was captured at Groes-
beck yesterday afternoon and Is now
in Jail at that place charged with
carrying a pistol He is a negro and
gives the name of Charley Bowen.
Sheriff Nall and Deputy Conlee sur
missed that the culprit would travel
north, and Immediately placed them
selves in touch with every officer be-
tween Bryan and Dallas, with the re-
suit that Bowen was arrested as sta
ted above. The pistol found on the
prisoner corresponds in description
with one taken from the saloon Of
Bailey Bowen in this city, and there
is no doubt that the man wanted Is
under arrest. The quick action OBJ
tanned shows up well for the Brazos
county officers.
