May Tto report ou thn ilobta just completed by the superintendent of tho MOSIIS shows a goner; 1 increase of Texas up now aa tho seventh state in though sho was tho fifteenth in 1680. But her taxable values and population has Increased in ratio far above her Indebtedness.

Her bonded debt is put down at 50.10ti.072, with a gross debt.of When tho census was taken iu 16SO tho bonded debt of tho state was with a gross debt of 07. The available resources of the state that might be applied to the reduction- of the debts were also taken'and Texas is put down as having available cash to the amount of 0-10 35.

KIVEIt AND IlAP.lIOii BILL. Tho bou.ie finally finished up the river and hurbor bill to-day. Mr. Reed returned from Maine and his metallic voice was once more heard from the chair. THE GALVESTOJT BILL.

The committee on rules made no report on tun resolution of Mr. Stewart In regard to appointing a day for the consideration of tho Galvestnu bill. Indeed, as you. have been heretofore advised, no one expected any prompt report. If it can be secured in a couple of weeks Galveston -will be lucky.

The time fixed in Mr. Stewart's resolution was the day following Uio resolution put in by the Ohio man, who introduced a resolution fixing Wednesday (to-day) for the consideration of the Sault Ete. Marie bill. Kow that Reed has returned it is supposed that be will at once fill the vacancy on the committee on rules, ma-do so by the resicnir.ion of Carlisle. After this ia done there can bo no excuse for any delay in appointing the day.

There is no.reason for any discouragement anywhere. Every friend of Glveston hers fscls that the bill is in as good shape as any one could desire. There is naturally some impatience at the delay in securing consideration, but such matters move slowly and there is nothing whatever ominous in the delay. The date when It will be considered rests with Reed alone. There ts no opposition to the measure of character that can bo defined as organized, and If is any trouble anywhere the friends of the measure are not able to discover It.

An Exciting Seene. MILTVAVEEE, May An interesting scene was witnessed in tho committee room of the Catholic societies yesterday afternoon "while the convention was still in The Bennett law resolution had just been passed and Chairman L'udwlg of the committee on resolutions had retired to the committee room. When Bishop Katzer passed through the hall to the committee room he asked hurriedly to see the resolutions. "I have not seen them," ho said, with the air of a rr.au who had been misused. A priest banded him Herman copy, res marking that they had already been adopted unanimously.

"I uliould hove seen these- beforo," said the bishop hastily. Hu then called Mr, Ludwig to him, and for nearly an hour argued with tho chairman that, the resolutions were faulty. Tho bishop held that the state bad no control over the child even If liio parents did neglect and ho tbonnht it was a dangerous thing to go on record HS conceding such right to tho state.

MILWAUKEE, May a. masa meeting of tho Catholics held luut night a declaration of principles wns adopted which, after affirming tho Infallibility of the pope and acknowledging tho dual duty of Catholics ab members of tho church and us citizens, cays; Civil government must not only abstain from attacking and hereditary rights but must protect them by wise, reasonable and just laws. Therefore we demand that religious liberty of conscience, the most holy and inalienable rights of nil citizens shall remain as granted, unaltered and unabridged.

JTurthermore, as wo consider tho maintenance of. these rights abso- lutdly dependent upon the education of children in our- own schools, we deinuud this privilege und shall, independent of other party political interest, Join at the polls those citizens who aro of the sume opinion concerning church schools, ao that iu tbo struggle vrli-h our oppressors wo may bo more sure of victory and maintain for our neoplo Christian principles. We therefore fully indorse the resolutions adopted by the convention of the Catholic benevolent societies iu reference to' tho Bennett law. THE CATHOLIC SOCIETIES. In the convention of German Catholic societies this morning John C.

Ludwig, chairman of tha committee on resolutions, presented resolutions setting forth a plan for organization for political work in the coming stete campaign. The preamble serta that In no sensa are the aocioties poll-, tical, nor do they want to dabble in politics, but that to oppose measnnu like tha Braaett Uw and to work for their repeal was a mt- Ur of conscience rather than a mr.tter of politics. The Gorman Catholic societies, will not farther nor oppose the Interests of any political party, but It the ssnwof this convention tbat the Bennttt law and the spread of paternal spirit In legislation infringes upon' our coiiBcIcncus, and -it vrouhj 09 wrong to cur children not to take nn part in opposing such ineaaurei. It Is resolved, therefore, that the Catholic societies take an active part in the coming state eampalcn and will organize for that purpose, Tho chief object of this organization will be to see that no friend of paternal measures is elected to either branch of the legislature aud to-wntch and oppose all bills presented in the legislature antagonistic to Catholics.
