A family mutter caused the trouble. SHOOT1XG AND CUTTING SCRAPE.

One of the sensations of the day was a combination cutting- and shooting scrape that was on Jlaln street nt an early hour this morning. The parties to the allulr were W. J. Perry and 11. Perkins, both known in the general community, nnd the sporting fraternity in particular.

The foimer has lived here many years, nnd Is now quite wealthy. I trouble seems to have hail its origin lust night sometime, as the uartles were together about daylight this morning. 'llley had been drinking considerably, and were playing at cards in the rear of a saloon No. 68 street. They had some words inside the saloon, and Officer John Fralne got on to U.

Seeing that there was a prospect of serious trouble, as botli men are considered willing to war on very short-notice, lie ke.ot close-eye on them. It was not long before It started, by the men coming to blows. The ufflcor acted promptly, nnd, though by himself, arrested them both. They wanted lo Kive bond on the spot, but the oilicer iold them they would have to go down to the cooler and settle Unit part oC it with the clerk at the police station. They were accordingly marched down and made their bonds, which Wft-e tu the olllcors.

In this difficulty hit Perkins and the latter, using an umbrella, returned the blow, and some part oC the weapon used scratched Perry about the neck and he bled some. From the station they returned to Main street and about 7.311 or the trow was renewed. Insulting words were passed and the men got together. It then came out that Perkins had a pistol and Perry a hnlff, used in saloons for cutting lemons. They came together and Perkins struck Perry i his pistol and the latter got back at him by opening a skin-deep gash under his enemy's left ear.

Onicers Andrews nnd Sullivan reached the fror.t of the saloon at this moment nnd the former caught Perry and the latter Perkins, but Perkins released himself in some way nnd llred one shot, but it missed his mark. He quickly llred another and was right close to his man, but again missed. OHI- cer in the meantime got there and Ktcalr.pr over his arm, Injuring It Much nn extent that 1'ad to be amputated above thu elbow. A FOUH-LISaCED SPOUT. A.

The busy rumble of freight trains In and out of Galveston give evidence that the long and severe "stringency" which has Impeded business so long Is loosening up nnd business is reviving at a most healthy rale.

The Mews railroad man learned from General Freight Agent Polk of the Santa Fe yesterday a business was picking up in a most satisfactory way with IUK road and that the movement of grain, cotton and cotton seed products to the gulf had begun in earnest. Re was very much pleased with the indications cf returning prosperity and said that the Santa Fe had sent out on Friday evening twenty carloads of mixed merchandise for local points and that the road was now doing a bigger local business than it had done at any time during the past three months.

Death of Ex-Mayor Fronoh. Sun Antonio, Sept. Mutlook'w eull upon tlio dumocrats uf ihe state to hold meetinss und vuiuu ihvlr up- pi ovul of the national administration caused little stir here further than lo develop tin: fact that the breach between the local Clark democrats Is still unhcaled. It will he remembered that in the last campaign there wuve three county democratic executive committees. The old committee, headed by ex-Mayor CuHughan, espoused the cause of HOBS.

An offshoot, having its origin in thinly attended primaries, assumed to lw the regular committee by right ol' reorganization. Thin element led by Captain Edgar Schramm and followed Clark throughout the campaign. A large element of Clark democrats, protesting against the machine methods of the Callaghan committee, effected a reorganization of the party in mass meeting and elected Judge Fleming county chairman. Clark carried the county for governor by H590 majority, but the question of which committee IH regular is still as much of a question as ever. Wh fit Chairman Mat lock's call was issued Chairman Schraram immediately issued a call for a mass meeting 1 signing himself "chairman of the county democratic executive committee." The Hogg democrats of course did not have Jt In their hearts to respond nor the Clark democrats who recognized the Fleming committee did not care to give Schramm quasi recognition by responding to his bugle blast.

As a result Schramm's meeting was sllmly attended, but the indorse- ment it gave Cleveland unquestionably reflects the sentiments of the great majority of democratic voters of the county. While Schrumm democracy has a scant following, still, by reason of Its enterprise and clamor, it is possible that unless some harmonizing action Is taken it may succeed In again precipitating the complications which nearly lost Uexnr county her representation in several district conventions last year. There is talk among: the leaders of "getting together," but nothing has yet been done In this direction, the Fleming: Democrats being unwilling to grant Schrarnrn much consideration on the ground that he. is a leader without any "followers. DEATH OF EX-MAYOR FRENCH.

The snddon nnd unexpected dwith last Wednesday night of Alderman James H. French, one of the most prominent und highly respected citizens of San Antonio, produced a shock among the many old frlends and life-tlnr: associates of the 1 Mr. French was well known throughout Texas. He served as mayor from 1875 to and was for nearly a IIHII'. century prominently identified with The In- ls of AlHoniu und southwest Texas.

He had also served several terms as member of. the board of aldermen of. the city. He was born In Halifax county. Virginia, his family being quite distinguished In that stHtc before the war.

Tn'lSTii- 1 when but 13 of ace. he turned his face westward and settled tn Atascosa county, Texas, where he purchased an L-Xtensive ranch und engaged in agricultural and Block raisin? pursuits. He was elected sheriff of Atascosa after he attained his majority and filled the office creditably. He served through the late civil war In the confederate urmy In southwest Texas and at the close of the strife settled in San Antonio, where he engaged in mercantile business for several years, finally giving that up to engage In tbe real estate brokerage business, to which he has since devoted himself. He leaves a wife and five children, three of whom ure married and the other two grown.

A FEATURE OF THE DROUTH. There is a peculiar thins noticeable In regard to the drouth which has prevailed in southwest Texas' during the past several lonths. It Is the fad that that section of lylnij between Sanderson and El Paso, which is usually the driest portion of Texas, 1ms hud an abundance of rain this season, and the ranchmen and farmers never before enjoyed suck great prosiwrity. The ruins have extended from the Pecos to within a short distance of Kl Paso. The runge Is green with tender and nourishing grass, while the water holts are tilleii to overflowing.

Cuttle and sheep ivore never in better condition at HiiH season of the year and ranchmen are only i i for higher prices to sell their stock. Kast of Sanderson there hus scarcely een any rain for several months, and the country is parched und stock water scarcu. SOCIAL EVENTS. An unusual number of social events in he way of marriages have taken place the city during the past week. Among them was that of Mr.

George Chabot, a romlnent young- business man, to Mis." Stapp. The ceremony was per- "ormetl at o'clock Wednesday evening til St. Mark's church In the presence of a arge congregation of friends, by Rev O. Q. A.

Hose. Mr. und Mrs. Chabot left he same evening for Chicago, from which city they will proceed to Niagara Falls New York and thence to Europe. Another wedding on the same night was lint of Mr.

C. A. Goeth lo Miss Caroline Jross, the daughter of F. Gloss, the TOURIST HOTEL ENTERPIUSE.
