When the Spanish-American war
broke out Gen. Marley was sent to

After burying his son on Cuban soil,
the general, with his command, sailed

OLD SOLDIER ONION FARMER
Brig. GEN. MarkIey, Retired After Ca
reer Of Nearly Fifty Years, to
Take Up Farming.

Lured by the rising fame OF the
Laredo onion belt. which he declares
has already reached bounds unappreci-
ated by the people of Texas, Brig Gen.
A. c. Markley, who has just retired
from the army after a career extend
ing over nearly half a century, an
nounces his intention to devote his at
tention to the industry Of raising
onions down on the Rio Grande
Like some Arabian Nights story
reads the career of the grizzled old ex-
soldier. His regular military exper-
ence had its beginning "A years ago
near Laredo, on almostFthe exact spot
in which he is now to launch his new
career as a farmer At the time re-
ferred to, Gen Markley-then tirst
lieutenant In the regular army-was
leading a scouting party up the RIO
Grande in the maneuvers made in con-
nection with troubles in Mexico Lare-
do at that time consisted OF Mexican
adobe hut or two and, according to
Gen. Markley, it would have required
one gifted with Divine prophecy to
have fpreseen that on that spot would
ever be located town the size OF La
redo. In vending their way up the
river bottom one hot summer day The
party espied an old Mexican padding
his canoe across the river in their di-
rection. More out of curiosity than
anything else they halted and watched
the Mexican's struggle with the cur
rent. When at last he reached the
shore it was to inform Gen Markley
and his party that Macmillan had sur
rendered and had been executed by
the Mexieans Gen Markley says he
learned afterward that his party was
| the first of the American army to
learn Of the termination of the French
reign on Mexican soil.
The general appearance of'the coun-
try. he says, did not particularly strike
him at that time, but, nevertheless,
/ this did not deter him from investing
in a tract of the finest soil near Lare-
do when the mining boom came some
twenty years later. 1t was his inten.
ton at that time to go into the mining
/ business, and with that view he erect
I ed handsome home on his land, i'm
proved it with a fence and fixed 1t up
for living purposes. The mining boom
however, fell fiat, and placing the land
in the hands of an agent he went bach
to Philadelphia, and for many years
gave his Texas possessions little or lie
thought, practically forgetting his farm
on the Rio Grande.

day The American received from Capt.
Chamberlain tie following communal
cation:
Knoxville, May 26-Nashyille Amer
lean, Nashville, Tenn. = Gentlemen:
Your request for copies of correspond
enee between the president and myself
be sent you for publication is received,
but at present do not feel at liberty to
do so, as l have not the presidents per-
mission, which / have asked for, but
not yet received.
You speak of part of letter from
the president to myself being published
in the papers of the state. l may say
that did receive letter from him, in
reply to one | wrote, bearing on the
matter of whether or not the republic
cans should put a judicial ticket in the
field in Tennessee; but any publication
purporting to be that letter must have
been given as somebody remembered
it, and incorrect, as it has been shown
to no one for publication, and will not
be without the presidents permission.
Without that letter, mine to him
would be of no general interest. ] may
say to you, as | do to every one, that |
am strongly in favor of the putting out
of full judicial ticket by the republic
cans, and can see no good reason
in the interest of the party why it
| should not be done. No such opportu-
nifty for the republicans to get control
of the state than now presents itself by
| the division in the democratic ranks.
| confess that | am unable to see by
what course of reasoning the so-called
| white house conference reached any
other conclusion. 1t is possible, as |
have heard it intimated, that it was
done in the interest of the independent
candidates for the judiciary, with the
"bait" of republican governor l
have heard it intimated that it was in
the interest of the selection of demo-
cratic senator which would make va
cancy in the presidents cabinet How
much truth there may be in these init
nations of course, do not know; but
do know this, that no triumvirate OF
quartumvirate in the white house OF
elsewhere can deliver republican votes
no matter for what purpose promised.
The republican, if anything, is indie
pendent, and will vote for his party
candidate if he gets a chance, but if he
has not, will vote for whom he pleases
and no man or set of men can dictate
as to how he shall please. From the
talk have had with many republicans
can say with confidence that this &C
ton of the president, Sanders, Brown
low. and Austin no matter how intend
ed, has made thousands of votes Tor The
regular democratic ticket because, n:
intimated, republican will Away
resent being dictated to, and will show
that resentment by disobeying The
word of the ditators That there is ;
Widespread feeling of dissatisfaction
among the republicans of the state be
cause Of present conditions there car
be no doubt in the mind of any observ
ing one, and | believe the parry vii
demand and get either through rsgula
channels or otherwise the opportunit.
to cast their votes fol republican judi
cial candidates.

His condition was such Saturday
night that DIR. Robert M. Baker, of

ter of Mr.. Hoyt deemed it advisable
10 remain at the bedside throughout
the night. Shortly after midnight
they noticed a change for the worse,
when a perceptible weakening of the
pulse beats was noticeable. From
h on, except tor a short period, dur
ing which he rallied somewhat, Mr..

500 o'clock.
Mr.. Hoyt. it was said, has been suf-

more than a year, resulting eventually
in the disease which caused his death.
He suffered during his last illness with
perforated ulcer OF the stomach, which
resulted in peritonitis.
