San Antonio, Tex, Jan. 24.-Prob-
ably only the efforts of a man who in
passing the door smelled gas saved
the lives of Lester Carmichael of
Beeyille and William Miller of Skid
more. The two young men had taken
rooms for the night at a boarding
house on Martin street There was a
leaking gas pipe in the room,
Lee Pope, who rooms in the house,
was passing the door at an early
hour this morning and detected the
fumes and gave the alarm. Knocks
brought no response, the door was
battered in and both men were tounu
NJ conscious. II was with consider
able difficulty they were revived.
The attending physicians said that
had they not been discovered they
would have been beyond human aid
in a few minutes.

Captain Barr Dead.

Southampton, Jan. 24.-Captain
Charles Barr, the noted American
yachtsman, died suddenly of heart
failure here today.
Captain Barr was at breakfast with
his family when suddenly he placed
hand upon his heart and, with a
cry of pain, fell forward into the
arms of his wife, dead.
Captain Barr had been in this coun'
try since last spring, when he brought
over his last command, the schooner
Westward. With the Westward Cap
tain Barr won many trophies at Kiel
and Cowes last summer. His success
as skipper OF the defenders Of the
Americas cup gave him a high place
in European yachting circles.

CHARLES CULBERSON
REELECTED SENATOR
FOR THIRD TIME TEXAS lEGlS-
LATURE NAMES HIM AS UNIT.
ED STATES SENATOR.

Austin, Jan. 24.-As faithful sery-
ant of the people of Texas, true to
every trust and possessed of deli
cate sense ,of the esponsibilities Of
high office: as a man whom the peo-
pie of this state have always delight
ed to honor, Charles A. Culbertson to-
day received the unanimous vote Of
the house of representatives where
by, as the senior of Texas, he was
thrice honored as the unsullied rep
resentative of all the people. Because
OF the absence of opposition, the oc-
casion was more or less formal, but
the ringing speeches of nomination
inspired great enthusiasm and fell
upon the ears of none who do not
hold the honored senator in the high
est esteem.
The nominating speech was made
by Mr.. Rowell, who has lived neigh
bor to the senator for years in his
home in Jefferson. Mr.. Rowell has
had ample opportunity to know Mr..
Culbertson intimately and out of the
years of companionship he has come
to love and honor the man whose
name was mentioned by representa-
tiyes of every part of Texas and al
ways in terms of the sincerest admir-.
alton.

REFUGEES
ARRIVING IN PEK|N
NEWSPAPERS AND GOVERN
MENT ENDEAVoRl TO AL
LAY FEARS OF CHINESE.

Pe,in. Jan. 25.-The weekly ex-
press from Hankow yesterday was
crowded with plague refugees. These
include college professors, the Ital-
ian minister, minor diplomats and
persons Of means who find the mo
ment convenient for vaccination or
retirement.
Bubonic plague, which had its
first victim here several days ago,
and, it is believed, many since
then, is he primary cause Of the
outpouring through the gates OF
the city. Even military officers
took opportunity by the forelock
and joined the departing throngs.
As a matter OF official record, no
new cases OF bubonic plague in Pc
kin were reported today, but the
opinion is held at the legations
that the Chinese, fearing the Wis
itations of the foreign doctors and
the summary destruction of the
dead, are not reporting illness of
any Sort and are possibly secret
ing the bodies. Indeed, mortality in
Pekin has become nfinitesimal
since the authorities enlisted the
services OF foreign physicians. who
began at once carrying out sanitary
measures along modern lines.
The newspapers are supporting
the government in its efforts to al
lay fears. The masses nevertheless
are much alarmed by gruesome re.
ports, such as one alleging that
the Russians at IIarbin are casting
the afflicted into poisoned wells.
This story perhaps developed from
the possible use of lime pits for
the dead
Meantime the diplomatic body
has not been able to agree as to
the manenr in which the legation
quarter should be quarantined. The
Germans, Austrans and British are
behind the barred gates of their own
quarters and are advocating dras-
tic measures. The Japanese. who
have the largest community out
side the quarter and perhaps the
most pressing general interests to
be looked after in Pskin, are sup
ported by the Russians in arguing
the necessity of continuing diplo-
matte relations with the Chinese
foreign board.
VIM. j. Calhoun, the American
minister, has adopted middle
course. He has suggested the keep
ing within the quarter all the
guards and the exclusion of the
Chinese except such officials as
have business with the legations.
The moderates are ridiculing the
others, declaring that they are panic
stricken, while political motives are
openly voiced as actuating the Jap.
onese. The ordinations and recrm.
nations are often ludicrous.
SO far only general measure of
quarantine has been undertaken. The
Japanese traffic which usually is
allowed to traverse the quarter is
now turned aside and compelled to
take a roundabout route.
Thedisease has reached Pao Ting
Flu, in the province of Chi Ii. on
its southward progress. Pao Ting Flu
Is seventy miles to the southwest

POSTAL BILL IS
PASSED IN HOUSE
MEASURE CARRIES A TOTAL OF
S257, 100000 FOR YEAR-No oP-
POSITION.

Washington, Jan. 24.-The house to-
day passed the postoffice appropria-
tion bill carrying about $4,000, 900.
with no votes in the negative.
The postonice committee of the
house, the postmaster general and
others higher up, including, by infer
ence, the president, came in for a
scoring at the hands of members OF
/ the house during the consideration
Of the bill The debate reached its
heights when Representative Sisson
/ Of Mississippi asserted with yigor:
The mail service all over the Unit
ed States is in a hell of a fix, TO use
strong expression, and this house
should fix the responsibility. Some
say it Is the committee, some say
/ It is the department and some say II
is the president. The department has
declined to spend the money appro-
priated for additional rural free de
livery routes and is going to turn back
surplus OF $l,7O0,000 from this serv-
ice. Forsooth, upon what hath these
Caesars fed that they can thus defy
the mandate OF the house and the sen
ate Of the United States?'
As soon as the rural free delivery
service paragraph was reached in the
bill a dozen men were on their feet
offering amendment to increase the
pay OF rural carriers from 5000 a
year all the way to $1,000. Chair
man Weeks of the postoffice commit
tee attempted to limit the debate, but
the house would not hear OF It.
Representative Bartlett of Georgia
| led the fusilade of criticism by orrer-
ing an amendment to give carriers
81 900 a year.
Representative Austin of Tennes-
see scored the postal committee. and
said the country ought to know where
the responsibility lay.
Chairman Weeks said that unques-
tonably some OF the rural carriers
on the harder routes were under
paid. Others. he thought, were re-
ceiving all they deserved.
However" added Mr.. Weeks amid
great applause, "the committee Is
willing to have salaries of the rural
carriers increased 800 a year"
The house then passed with a
whoop an amendment providing that
after July /, 1911. the carriers would
receive a salary not exceeding $1,000
a year.
An attempt to substitute official
postage stamps for the franks now
used by members of congress and
governmental departments was de
feated.
please do not open until Christ
mas" will be permitted on mail mat
ter in the future, if the action of the
house is sustained, approving a pro
vision allowing these extra words tc
be written on mail packages
is this a compliment to Santa
Claus" asked Representative Foster
of illinois.
1T Is to relieve the congestion OF
the mails at Christmas time replied
Mr.. Weeks. I'VE all try to have our
packages arrive on Christmas Eve
and If such a line could be written
on them many would be sent earlier

CATHOLICS HOLDING
BALANCE Of POWER
IN MEX|CO'S FIGHT
Endorsement of Church Or.
ganizations Needed by
Candidates.

. MEXICO CITY. Aug. Reimbursement
by the Catholic societies is looked upon
today as the real balance of power to
be sought by the candidates for the
presidency of Mexico.
This opinion was freely expressed
this morning, following the adjourn
ment, shortly after midnight OF the
meeting of the anti-re-electIOn party
which after a stormy session repudiated
Madero as their leader, and named DR..
Gomez in his stead.
Going further, they suggested the new
party head as a presidential candidate,
but after discussing the plan to run
Gomez decided to defer all action until
Tuesday. This was done because on
that day the delegates from Catholic
Clubs Of Mexico will meet here, and
the choice of the 80 RELIGIOUS Organiza-
tiOns can then he ascertaIned.
The delegates from the Catholic So
Cieties will attend the high mass to be
held at the Cathedral Wednesday. when
the archbishop of Mexico will officfate.
Al this Time the bod for the support
OF the Catholics will be made by the
Gomez party, although with what sue
cess none can say, for up to this tim
the Catholics have been regarded as
favOring General Reyes.
The probable influence that this vote
will carry is best understood when one
considers that there are more than 700
Catholic organizations throughout Mex
leo. and that 1900 priests Will actively
campaign for the choice of the Catholic
element

SPIRIT OF SOUTHERN
SOLDIER EMBODIED
IN GEN. c. ". GORDON
The Rev. McKim Pays High
Tribute to Leader of Con-
federates, Just Dead.

A tribute to the Confederate soldiers
IN general, and to Gen. George W. Cor.
don, commander-in-chief of the United
Confederate Veterans and member OF
Congress, who died Wednesday, in par
ticular, is paid by the Rev Randolph
H. McKim, pastor Of the Church of the
Epiphany, in the American Review OF
Reviews.
DR.. Mckim, who has written several
articles on the conditions leading up
to the civil war, and whose history of
that great conflict is a recognized au-
thority in both the North and the
South, gives an example of the spirit
and independence of the Southern SOL
dier in his latest article on. ''Glimpses
Of the Confederate Aarmy."
In the magazine article, he says:
1T seems to me as l look back that
one of the things which stood out
strongly In the Confederate army was
the independence and the initiative of
the individual soldier. 1t would have
been a better army in the field if it had
been welded together by stricter dis
ciplLne, but this defeat was largely
atoned for by the strong individuality
Of the units in the column. 1t was not
easy TO demoralize a body composed of
men who thought and acted in a spirit
of independence In battle.
"As an iIlL stration Of the spirit cf
the private soldier l recall an incident
to this effect. Major General Gordon
had organized a strong column to make
a night attack on Grants lines at Pc
tershurg When he was rcedy to move
and the crGer 10 advance was given a
big Texan stepped out of the ranks
and said:
General Gordon, this column can't
move before ! a. m. The men have a
truce with the Yanks, and it amt up
till l O'clock.
The column did not move till that
hour. The private in the ranks had
taken command, and the major general
recognized his authority"
