NO EVIDENCE AGAINST
MANUEL GONZALES
Neutrality Case Dismissed by U. s.
Commissioner Russell-Judge Al
lens Connection With the Case.

Owing to the fact that there was
no evidence on hand, the Gaze
against Manuel Gonzales, charged
with violating the United States and
Mexico neutrality laws, was dis
missed by United States Commits
sioner VIM. j. Russell yesterday
morning. Gonzales was at once
given his release and promptly left
the room.
United States District Attorney
Lock Mcdaniel of Houston was here
ITO prosecute the case, and United
States Marshal G. G.. Brewster of
Galveston was G1so here. As there
was rothing left for them to do with
regard to the matter, both left the
city in the afternoon, Mr.. Mcdaniel
for Houston and Mr.. Brewster for
Corpus Christi.
IT was assumed that evidence in
the case would be forthcoming from
San Antonio. as Gonzales was ar
here upon information re-
ceived from that city. However, ii
did not show up. Judge Mcdaniel
said the only thing to be done now
is for the federal officials a. San An
tonic to have a complaint made and
a warrant issued. The warrant must
be SEN to Judge Waller T. Burns Of
Houston, Of the Southern district Of
Texas, he to order the arrest made.
San Antonio is in the Western
district of Texas and under the
jurisdiction of Judge T. S. Maxey Of
Austin. Any future action in the
case must therefore come through
his court.
In reference to the Mexican gov
eminent taking a hand in the case,
Judge Mcdaniel stated that that
government had absolutely nothing
to do with its prosecution. He said
the violation of the neutrality law in
this country was clearly an infrac-
ton of the laws of the United States
and as such it would be prosecuted
by the United States.
To a Herald reporter yesterday
morning, Mr.. Mcdaniel stated, in re-
ferring to the report that Judge
Noah Allen would represent the
Mexican government in the case that
he had learned that Judge Allen had
not come into the affair on his own
initiative. He said that Mr.. Allen,
owing to the latter's former connec-
ton with The federal attorneys Of
flee, had had experience in matters
of this kind, and that Commits Toner
Russell and Mexican Consul Fred
erico Mendoza y Vizcaino had re-
quested his advice.
Since he had learned the condi-
tons under which Mr.. Allen had
come into the matter he did not at
tach any blame to the Brownsville
attorney.

SAUNDERS GREGG
IS CHAMPION
DEFEATS C. w. HALL IN FINAL
GAME MONDAY
Game Was Hard fought Throughout.
All the Local Golf Enthusiasts
Were Prestn and Followed the
Players Over the Course.

The final game Of the first series
in the golf tournament, played for
the loving cup offered by President
w. S. West OF the Brownsville
Country Club, was played Monday
afternoon at the golf links Of the
Country Club in West Brownsville
by Saunders Gregg, handicap 81, and
C. w. Hall, handicap 81. The game
was an interesting one, the final
stroke deciding the winner.
The players were evenly matched.
First one and then the other would
have a slight lead. Mr.. Gregg
gained a stroke in the first hole, but
Mr.. Hall regained 1t in the third.
Mr.. Gregg gained another stroke in
the sixth, but Mr.. Hall won the
seventh hole by a stroke, again even
ing the score. The eighth was a tie.
1t looked like a tie game in the
ninth. MI. Gregg made a beautiful
put sending the little white ball into
the hole. The ball was at least
seven feet from the goal. Mr.. Halls
ball was within two feet of the hole,
and every one expected him to hole
the ball and make the game a tie,
but somehow he didn't, the ball miss
ing by about an inch.
The score:

SLEEPER SERVICE FROM
SAN ANTONIO.

According to announcement by
President and General Manager J. f.
Lupton Of the San Antonio and
Arkansas Pass railroad, arrangements
have been perfected by the manage
ment of that road whereby a through
sleeper service between San Antonio
and Brownsville may be put into eff
feet Immediately, provided the
Brownsville road, will agree. The
new service, via Corpus Chris
ii and Kennedy Junction, will, in any
event, give travellers betwedn
Brownsville and San Antonio eithtr
going or coming. the advantage of
making the trip by night, without
the necessity Of stopping over at
Corpus or Kennedy. with sleeper SER
vice at least between SrpuN and
San Antonio. 1t is(oped, however.
that the FriscoMay make arrange
ments to cooperate with the Sap in
this USrter, and run the sleeper
Though to Brownsville. Otherwise,
passengers coming by his train from
San Antonio to this place will have
to undergo the great inconvenience
of rising before daylight to change
at Corpus Christi.
1t is understood that President
Winchell of the Frisco. has express
ed himself as favorable to such a
service and, in fact. spent a day or
two in San Antonio in an effort to
secure an agreement with 2he Sap
upon the subject. Therefore 1T APP
pears quite reasonable to hope that
arrangements may be perfected
which will give Brownsville the long
wanted through sleeper to and from
San Antonio.

ing addresses by Rev. Father Lavoie

day a committee on resolutions, con-
gisting Of Miss Barbour, Miss Duffy
and Mrs. Clearwater, was appointed.
The committee will report today.
The morning session was opened
by Father Lavoie who, after Offering
a prayer, lectured to the teachers for
a half hour. The teachers took deep
interest in what was said by Father
Lavoie. and feel hat they have prof
tied by the talk he made them.
Father Lavoie's talk was on the
work Of the teachers in the Train
ing OF the Soul" He told Of the
important part they take in bring
ing up the children, and said it was
the duty of the teacher to teach the
broad principles OF Christianity.
Two sections of the program left
over from Mondays program were
taken up first. An essay on "Ath-
I%letics In the School, was read by
Miss W. Custer. After Misses Ko-
walski and larabelle Smith dis
cussed the subject, there was a gen
eral discussion among the teachers.
"Dramatization OF Literature for
the Grades was a subject handled
by Miss MeCaughan. Misses Clear
water and Champion led the discus
sion which followed.
Miss Thielen gave her ideas OF
conducting a class in the fifth read
ed. A rich harvest of suggestions
resulted from the discussion, led by
Mrs. Moore.
The question. an ever present one
among teachers all over the country,
Of Corporal Punishment: Shall ii
be-" was next taken up by Miss
Duffy. Miss Barbour and Miss Davis
discussed the subject after Miss
Duffy had completed, and general
discussion also followed.
Miss Kowalski told how she
would conduct a class in language
lessons in the fifth grade. Miss
ThieIen led the discussion on the
subject.
Rev. J. T. Craig closed the days
work by reading an educational
paper on the subject The Despotism
of the Defner.' 1t was a protest
against the multiplication of new
definitions by authors of text books
on grammar. Mr.. Craig reviewed
text books with which he had come
In direct contact during his school
life. and. stated there has come an abb
solute revolution in the technical
terms in those books used years ago
as compared itw those used today.

WESTERN LEAGUE

Signs Indicate That Pitts
burg of West Will Get
Hinky-dink

Lincoln. Neb.. Jan. lO.-Signs are
multiplying that the mogols of the
Western baseball league are planning
to hand the hinky-dink TO Pueblo.
the Little Pittsburg of the West.
When Frank Isbell switched the
Wichita club to Pueblo last summer
he was given a bonus the terms of the
deal specifying three payments In as
many years. Ivy collected some
thing like $4,000 as the first pay
ment and seems to have been salts

I, was the second time that Pueblo
went to the assistance Of the Western
league Little Pittsburg having tax
on over the Colorado Springs club in
the stormy season of 1905. For five
successive years Pueblo was repre-
scented by losing club and /, was
only natural that the interest should
wane. the result being the sale Of the
franchise TO Jack Holland and the
transfer of the club TO 81. Joseph.
Wichita went to the bad early last
season and when Pueblo was APP
pealed to, Little Pittsburg was not
slow to respond. The donation OF a
$4,000 bonus. split irto three pay
ments. rather proves that the bust
ness me nand farms of Pueblo are
made OF the right stuff. Twice they
have gone to the rescue OF the league
aud now plot is brewing to throw
them down.
The trick that the league proposes
to turn involves the acquisition OF the
Des Moines franchise by Frank Is
bell and Tom Fairweather and the
transfer of the Pueblo club back "a
/ Wichita. The latter city is at pre-
sent busilv engaged in organizing

The poor attendance of previous
seasons is explained by the fact thai

the service was abominably poor This
