400 PER CENT GAIN DURING

Unprecedented Crops in Brownsville

Truck and Cotton Chief Products.
Business Index Shows Prosperity.

An increase of 400 per cent in the
tonndge hauled during the year end
ing July 81 Is indicated BY the re-
ports Of railroads operating in South
Texas. declared Allison Mayheld.
chairman Of the Texas railroad com
mission. at the Gunter hotel yester-
day. These reports, which the roads
submit to the commission from time
TO time. he said, are perhaps the best
index to business conditions and at
present show an unprecedented ero
of prosperity.
II have lived in Texas for nearly
50 years" said Mr. Mayfield. but
have never seen such abundant crops
and such prosperity as az present.
In cotton alone the gain Is already
10000 to $4,000 bales.
Big Crop Causes Car Shortage.
The increase in crops this years Ia
so great, he said, that i'm some in
stances il had brought about short
age Of cars. In this connection he
told of the experiences of the
Brownsville section.
THE officials of the Brownsville
railroad. which Is the only outlet for
that section were not primarily az
fault" he said They kept track
faithfully OF the acreage and had
plenty of cars on hand to handle the
produce which the experience OF
former years indicated would be
made The mistake arose from the
unprecedented yield per acre. which
they neglected to ascertain until the
crops had been harvested.
Farmers who previously had
raised 200 crates Of onions 70 the
acre raised 400 or even 500 this year
The officials suddenly were confront
ed with the problem Of supplying
more than twice the number of cars
that had been provided. ID is safe
to say. however. that this condition
never will arise again.

Jail for City Prisoners.

Mr. Crixell moved that the market
below the present city hall be fitted
up for a Jail. He stated that this
would not cost over a hundred dol
lars and would be a good deal finan
cially for the city, As the city is now
using the county jail and every time
a prisoner is put in it costs the city
from a dollar to a dollar and half.
The marshal had informed him that
the prisoners could be fed for about
20 cents a day Mr.. Crixell thought
it would be a good plan TO put the
prisoners to work on the streets and
let them work out their fine, allow
ing them so much a day. for their
work. Mr.. Kirk seconded the mo-
ton
Mr. Cobolini stated that he thought
the expenditure illegal, and that the
committe was not financially able to
do this.

INDIANA CONTESTS DECIDED
BY SEATING TAFT DELEGATES
A RESULT OF YESTERDAYS CONTEST WAS THE ADDITION OF
TWELVE DELEGATES TO THE TAFT COLUMN.
PRESIDENT NOW HAS 2S5 VOTES
Associated Press.

Associated Press
Chicago, ILL.,, June 1O-The repub-
lican national committee today de-
cided the contests from Indiana state
at large and from the first, third,
fourth and thirteenth districts in
favor Of Taft, adding twelve dele
gates to the presidents column.
Asst stand Taft now has a total
Of 2S5 delegates to the convention
including those uncontested and the
contests decided in his favor. Roose-
welt has Ali instructed for him un-
contested. La Toilette has SO un-
contested delegates and Cummins 10.
The contests still pending number
10. The uninstructed and uncon-
tested delegates total 166. The total
number of delegates to the conven-
tion will be 1913. The number nee
essary for nomination $40.
Taft adherents so far have won
every contest before the committee,
S4 in all. At the start today an eff
fort was made by the Roosevelt fol-
towers to force a consideraf ion of the
contests from California and Arizona
before as much as a discussion Of the
Indiana cases were taken up, but on
a vote they lost, 3S to 13-the per-
sonnel of each side being practically
as in the other divisions on factional
lines.
The Indiana delegates at large
were then decided in favor of Taft
unanimously, and the first, third and
thirteenth district contests were de-
cided for the president along the
lines usually followed in the di-
visions.
In the fourth district the contest
was withdrawn and the delegates
awarded to Taft.
The real fight Of the day came in
connection with the thirteenth or
South Bend district An unsuccess-
full attempt had been made by Roose-
velt's attorney to introduce affidavits
alleging that majority OF the dele
gates in the district convention had
been for Roosevelt. The committee
finally reversed its position against
the affidavits
This was not explained to the sat
isfaction of the Roosevelt men, and
Senator Borah taunted the Taft men
about it. telling them they had
changed front because they were
scared"
The Taft adherents denied that
they were scared or that any special
light had broken in upon them. They
insisted that they had first opposed
the affidavits because they
did not desire to delay the hearing.
by the necessity Of giving the Taft
side the opportunity to answer them
or to create an awkward precedent
Their reversal of their vote was
coupled with a specific declaration
that it was not to be regarded as a
precedent.
In this form all the Roosevelt men
voted against it,
After the affidavits were heard the
decision was in favor of Taft by a
vote of 36 to IA

INTERESTING SESSION
OF CITY COUNCIL
CITY MARKET REGULATIONS DIS
CUSSED AT LENGTH
Paving Question Brought to Fore by
Alderman Cobolini - Condemned
Building Must be Removed Within
80 Days After Owners Notified.

The meeting of the city council
yesterday was both interesting and
important. The subject of city mar
ket regulation was brought before
the meeting by communication
from Alderman Cain, and was dis
cussed at length.
The street paving question was
also brought to the fore again
through a communication from Aid
erman Cobolini, urging that the diff
ference between himself and the paw
ing company be Investigated.
The meeting became interesting
even before the minutes were ap-
approved. Alderman Cobolini OBJ
jected to the minutes, not, as he said,
that they were not a correct record
Of busnes stransacted at the last
meeting, but that he objected to
some of the business passed, and
when the vote was taken on the min
utes, he voted no. AldelEan Kirk
also voted no. The other members
of the council voted yes.
Alderman Thorn gave a report on
the laying of the pipe to the slaugh-
ter house, saying that Mr.. White did
not want the contract, but would do
the necessary plowing free of charge
Alderman Crixell stated that there
had been an over sufficiency OF water
in some fthe wards, and about 200
families were benefited by having it
drained at a cost of about $25. He
stated that there had been some crit
icism of this expenditure, on account
of lack of money. He wanted to
know If ii was better to leave the 200
families in the lakes or to drain the
water off. Most of The council con-
Cured that II was the onry thing to
do under the circumstances.

Those Condemned Buildings.


Mr.. Kirk of the special committee
reported that the awnings they had
looked inro had ben fixed satisfactor-
lily, with the exception of one. The
owner of this wishes to put up an
iron awning, and as yet had not had
the opportunity, but would see to it
Immediately
Mr.. Crixell remarked that a COM
mit.ee had been appointed to con-
denim certain buildings about sixteen
months ago, and that they were con-
demned, but nothing further was
done. Some of the buildings we're
fire traps and eye-sores to the city
and he thought this matter should
be looked into, as it was as important
as the matter of awnings
Mr., Kirk replied to this that one
of the buildings is in a place where
it was not a menace to other build
ings, and he thought that it would
be removed in short time. He ad-
mitted, however, that it was an eye
sore The other buildings mentioned,
he was sure, would be torn Gown in
the very near future. The mayor said
he had it from good authority that
the last building named would be

room for q new one. The city secre-
tary was instructed to notify the
owner of any buildings condemned
that they must be removed within
80 DAYS, or the owners must show
cause why they should not. be torn
down
Mr.. Cain then read the following
communication.

Respectfully,

r. !. CAIN,
Chairman Street and Bridge Com.
Mr. Blackshear suggested that one
man do all the butchering, haul the
meet to town properly covered and
pace it in a refrigerator where it
should stay until in proper condition

wanted by the butchers.
DIR. Loew. the city physician. sug-
gested that the new market have uni
form fixtures and that old boxes
should not be used as previously. He
had secured from the department Of
agriculture some sample ordinances
regarding market houses, which he
offered to the council to inspect to
assist in making ordinances for the
new market
Mr.. Blackshear moved that two
more men be appointed by the mayor
to meet with the health and sanitary
committee TO consider these sanitary
condition and market Improvements,
but the council left the matter in the
hands of the committee with power
to act
