Ferrer was not directly responsible for

Lercux Is of the opinion that King
Alfonso Is weak and without prestige

monarchy is irretrievably doomed. and
he said the only way to save Ferrer
is through international agitation In
favor of public trial.
The Ere nch socialists are calling

Denison, Texas, June 1S.-During
a terrific wind and rainstorm last
night, accompanied by brilliant
electrical display, the machine shops
and planning mill of the car depart
ment of the Missouri, Kansas &
Texas railway here burst into flames
Before the fire could be gotten under

Fortunately, no one was hurt,
but many had narrow escapes.
Switching crews took desperate
chances in hauling cars out of the

their efforts number of box cars
were burned.

The rain was general over this

BIG JUDGMENT PAID.
Houston and n.Nas Central Settles
with Mrs. Davenport.

After going through series of
court proceedings which consumed
all of this week the big judgment re-
covered by Mrs. Sarah Davenport
and children against the Houston
and Texas Central railroad company
has been finally settled The money,
amounting to more than $4,000,
was paid into the district court by
the railroad company shortly after
the case was finally disposed of by
the supreme court. The money was
equally divided between Mrs. Daven-
port and her three minor children,
Nina, Lawrence and Burleigh DAY.
export A check covering the amount
to which Mrs Davenport was entit-
led was forwarded to her, but the
amount due the children was held in
trust by District Clerk Carothers un-
til a receiver for the estate of the
minors could be appointed by the
probate court This amount was
.S27,16S. Upon application of Mrs.
Davenport she was appointed re-
ceiver last Saturday, and then a de-
mand was made upon District Clerk
Carothers for the money. Mr.. Caro-
theirs was out of the city and Lem
Wray. deputy clerk, declined to pay
over the money because of some
irregularity in the proceedings. Mr..
Carothers was appealed to but he
did not feel that he would be safe in
settling with the litigants without
an order from District Judge Haw-
kins. All parties interested went be-
fore Judge Hawkins at Kaufman. AS
a matter of form Mrs. Davenport
filed suit against Mr. Carothers, C.
B. Randell and J. H. Woods. Evi-
dence was heard and the court issued
an order directing Clerk Caroth-
ers to pay the money over in the fol-
lowing proportion: To c. B. Randell
and ]. H. Wood $10,05G; to Nina,
Lawrence and Burleish Davenport
$17.112, this amount to be equally
divided between the children.
