THE ALAMO TO BE DESTROYED.

The Alamo, one of the most famous
places in the history Of Texas, was a
stone church and mission building OF
solid construction at San Antonio, in
the Lone Star" state. 1t dates back to
the Spanish settlement in Texas, which
was then a province of Mexico. The
Alamo is more than two centuries old
and is falling to decay despite the fact
that some years ago the state made an
appropriation for it's repair.
1t Is reported that it is being de-
molished to make room for new build
ings. This report has moved the New
York World to say of the famous build
ing, which was occupied as a fortress
in the revolution of 1886, in which
Texas Independence was gained, and in
which Crockett, Travis, Bowie and
Bonham and their comrades defended
to the last man against the Mexican
hordes of Santa Ana:
'If there is any deathless story in
American history it is this. For its
like you will have to go back more
than 1000 years to Leonidas and his
800 Spartans in the Pass of Thermop-
lac. There is no American who has
not thrilled when he read the tale. The
Texans numbered but 1863, and Santa
Ana brought up his thousands. While
way of escape was yet open, Travis
addressed the Texans and said that
any who wished could go, but the 9th
ers would stay and die. They stayed
"The event stirred the whole civil
lied world, and when few months
later the Texans under Sam Houston
destroyed the Mexican Army at San
Jacinto. Remember the Alamo" was
their battle cry
The episode of the heroic defense
of the Alamo has not been surpassed,
if equaled, in the history of the world,
and it is almost sacrilege to the mem
ory of the bravest men in the world
that the old church should be destroy

A report also was presented on be-
half of the republican members OF the

leading features of the bill. The
minority members declared that the
powers conferred by the bill upon the
federal reserve board were too great
and there was extreme danger that
the board would be used for corrupt

front the district will continue to

Supervisor Payot suggested that the
district be formed to include also the
Mail docks, but Supervisors Hooks and
Caglieri OF the police committee main
tanned that it would be unjust TO make
too great a cut in the beginning, and
that the fairer method of procedure
would be to ascertain first how the
new rate will operate in the district
outlined. Supervisor Hilmer, who has
been one of the most active on the
committee for the reduction of taxicab
rates, announced that further cuts
will be made by the establishment of
other districts if the present reduc-
ton proves fair to all concerned.

MYSTERY
New York Police Hopeful
of Establishing Identity
of Torso

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The army Of
detectives, both here and in New Jer-
sey, who are working on the mys-
terry surrounding the death Of the
girl whose torso was found in the
Hudson river, were hopeful today OF
solving the identity OF the victim
and locating those persons who were
responsible for her death.
The detectives have established the
fact that the pillowcase, which was
wrapped around the first section of
the torso, was secured from George
W. Sachs, a second hand dealer at
One Hundred and Forty-sixth street
and Eighth avenue, this city. Sachs
declared he bought one dozen of the
castings. He still has 10 in stock.
He remembers selling one to a
woman, but does not remember who
she was. He has no recollection Of
what became of the other pillowcase,
but hazards the guess that it might
have been stolen.
One of the most important clews
as TO the identity of the girl came
to the hands OF the officials in the
report of the mysterious disappear
ance of Miss Norman, an actress.
Miss Norman's physical description
The San Francisco call., 1913-09-09

tallies with that OF the girl whose
torso has been found.
Miss Norman was accustomed to
wear low necked dresses. The "
shaped tan mark on the throat and
breast of the murdered girl shows
that she, too, had worn low necked
gowns.
Miss Norman disappeared on Au-
gust 81. which is the same date on
which Ii is believed the river victim
met her death Miss Norman, for a
time, exhibited last summer with a
Hindoo magician at Palisade Park,
n. j., which is near the place where
the first part of the torso was found.
Some weeks ago Miss Norman quit
her employment with the Hindoo. but
on August 81 announced to some
friends that she planned to go over to
Palisade. She has not been seen since.
