Sih: The application of the officials

having been refeired to me by your ex-
' celleucy 1 have the honor to slate in re
ply thereto that the stale has in its
employment no men of the peculiar cri-
yetency which seems to be impliedly re-
quired in this particular case and I am
therefore somewhat in doubt as to the
respouse that should be made to the ap-
plication. The great body of the state

commended for their zeal energy cour-
age and capacity in the line of their
kuown and recoguized duties iu uphold-

however desperate and in protecting the
borders agaiust Indians; but there has
never bceu any authority for the employ-

known as "detectives" and no encour-
agement for the cultivation oe
this special sort of talent and tut
stale has therefore do such competent
men in iu employment. It is within my

the son required by the application in
Uiis case. Tho lacts connected wilh
this transaction as far as developed in-
dicate that the robbery waa committed
by parties 1 viug near the scene and who
were evidently new begiuuers in this line
of life and as there are quite a number
of active civil olhcers and citizens now
vigorously engaged in tracing up this-
matter there seems lo be no special ne-

To Ilia Excrlk-ncy U. M. Roberta Uovernor of
Texas :
Sir: Your E xcellency having refer
red to me for my consideration the pe-
t t on or various citizens in the counties
of Jefferson Galveston Chambers and
Liberty asking that a detachment ot
r i tigers be sent into that portion of the
the ttute for temporary or possibly per
munent service. I have the honor to
any. in reply that it is not in my power
at this time to meet this demand even if
r - .1.. 1 .. v. . T I I l
i waa pcriei;iiy vicar luai x tuuiu mw
fully do so. I have examined the sev
eral acts under w hich the frontier force
was organized and has since been
maintained and also the languige of the
constitution on the subject of frontier
defense and I am of the opinion that
this military force cannot be transferred
to the eastern and more peopled portions
of the slate without doing vio'ence to the
letter and spirit oi the constitution and
laws under which it was raUed and is
kept up. There is not a line anywhere
in the various acts of the legislature
touching this question or deiense
and police service nor in the language
of the constitution itself that
looks to the expenditure of public
money in keeping this force anywhere
in the field except on. or near the Iron
tier unless in special cases like the ser
vices of a company in southwest 1 exas
aud this was expressly provided for by
law. In uddition to this it seems to me
as unwise and improper to encourage a
belief among the people in old and well
settled communities that every little
local disturbance or series of thefts
authorizes an appeal to and an expecta
tion of aid from the authorities of the
state. Tho tendency of this sort of de
pendence is to sap the very foundation
of true manhood and to destroy that
frank open bold public spirit which is
the surest support to law and order and
to leave in its place a cnnginc coward
ly selfish spirit which timidly submits
to wrong rather than make an enort to
preserve the right
Outside of the general and somewhat
vague statement that there are bands of
lawless men in those counties stealing
stock and these bands are too strong
to be suppressed by the civil au
thorities there is nothing definitely given
in this petition to indicate any pressing
necessity for uch an extraordinary
effort as the state would be compelled to
make in order to meet this demand.
The agreement to find . the men
while on this duty amounts to
very little so far as any saving.
to the Ktate is concerned as the expense
of getting them to a part of the country

operations would be great and their
monthly wages would have to be paid be

necessary in the management of the
frontier forces ibis year in order to
avoid a deficiency on the one hand or a
great reduction oi its numbers on the
other as the appropriarion for the cur
rent year is only ftiu.OOO and unless your
excellency should deem it absolutely
necessary lawful and proper to attempt

reasons slated and many others that

Full Particulars of tho Fire and
tho Occasion.
Thursday at about fifteen minutes to
one o'clock the alarm of fire sounded
from the big bell on tbe hill. As no
ward was given in the alarm firemen
and others were much puzzled to know
in what locality the fire was situated.
This suspense was of short duration.
however as ths news soon spread that
the
LVXATIC ASYLUM WAS OH FIRE.
Ordinarily tbe alarm of fire creates an
excitement among tbe general masses of
humanity which no other agency is
capable of producing but in this instance.
when it was stated that a lunatic asylum
where is confined several hundred help-
less and demented people was burning.
a feeling of horror pervaded the minds ot
those who heard it. The intense excie:-
nient caused by the first announcement
of the fire was exceedingly augmented
by rumors whieh came thick and fast
one or which was to the enect
that the inmates of the asylum
were all turned loose and several burned
up. Tbe Bremen witn commenoame
zeal and promptness hurried to the
scene the hose carriages and trucks lie-
Ing loliowed closely Dy Colorado
steamer. hen the representative oi
the Statesman reached the ground and
ho was among the first to arrive what is
known as
THE PAVILION
was completely enveloped in names.
It must be remembered in this connec-
tion that the building is full two
miles from the city and there was
no way of giving the alarm after
the fire was first discovered except to
snd some one all the way to town
When the firemen arrived therefore the
burning building was beyond all hope of
preservation aud the only service re
uuired of the department was to prevent
the spread oi the names to tne adjacent
structures.
The alarm was first given a short time
after twelve o'clock about the time the
inmates were getting ready for dinner
by a workman engaged on the buildings
now being constructed mere. Lr. wra-
ham states that when he heard the alarm
he rushed to the scene and discovered
the bulldii g to be on fire under the
roof. Several parties immediately went
to work to extinguish the flames but
having no appliances of any description
save some buckets oi water urougut
from an adjacent cistern the task wis
soon discovered to be a hopeless one.
With a single hose and nozzle it is con
fidently asserted by several the fire could
have been suppressed in a lew moments.
Meantime the attendants led and di-
rected by the brave and faithful matron.
Mrs. Carr. were laboring with all their
strength and skill to

wanted to hurry up stairs to their dor
mitotic? where certain and a horrible
death awaited them. By a great deal of
persuasion some force and deception.
they were all finally rescued from the
building and immediately secured in
other quarters. Mrs. Carr says most of
them were induced to leave the house by
tbe attendants telling them to come to
the play ground to dinner and other
pretexts of that kind but that some had
to be carried out by sheer force. One
patient who had both legs broken by
jumping from a balcony some
time ago mention of which
occurrence was made in the Statesman
at the time had to be carried out. Itigbt
here It is desired to mention for the pur
pose of commending him

who throngh devotion to duty sacrificed
all his worldly possessions. He never
thought of self but bravely and nobly
worked to save the poor and helpless
creatures committed to his charge. lie
lost his trunk containing all of his
clothing $120 in money and other pos-
sessions. He did not even have a hat
when the fire was over. There was
some talk yesterday of raising a subscrip
tion for his benefit. We hope it may be
done. ...
THE BURNED BUILDING.
was situated about ninety yards from the
main building in a northwesterly direc
tion and about one hundred and fifty
yards from what is known as he "North
Building." The wind was blowing
strongly toward the main building and
the burning cinders tell in perfect tor
rents upon tbe roof of the latter. Fire
men were ou guard there however and
prevented any catastrophe in that quar
ter. Colorado company turned a stream
'of water upon the fire but as nothing
could be effected tncrery. it was dis-
continued and there "was nothing
left but to wait until the flames
ceased for want of material upon which
to nourish.
- ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
It is not known positively how the fire
originated but the superintendent and
the attendants think it was caused by a
detective pipe leading irom tne stove in
tbe sitting room out tnrougn the roof.
Dr. Graham states however that this is
the same stove and pipe which have been
used during the entire winter past. This
being true the accident can be accounted
for only upon the supposition that the
pipe had burned through or had in some
way become displaced thus communl
eating the blaze to the roof of the build
ing.
' THE LOSS TO THE STATE.
The loss to the state counting the
building and such portion of its contents
as were destroyed wm amount to con
siderable. The house was a two-story
brick structure the contract price of
which if we remember rightly was
$12000 and upon which of course.
there was no insurance. The building
was comparatively a new one bavin
been finished during the incumbency of
ur wauace as superintendent some
four years ago. It was found impossi-
ble yesterday during the excitement of
the occss on to arrive at any definite
conclusion as to the value of the con
tents of the building that were
destroyed. It was stated that about
$4ii0 worth of new clothing was burned.
This estimate may be found incorrect
after investigation but it was the opinion
of the gentleman who had charge of that
particular department. Some little of
the furniture on the lower floor was
saved but all of that in the rooms halls
and domitories up stairs was lost. There
would have been time perhaps to have
saved more of tbe contents of the build
ing but for the fact that everybody who
could help any was engaged in rescuing
tbe patients l he inmates oi the adjoin-
ing building swere -
MUCH EXCITED
fn. .wtill. itnrinif t Ti m llM f. fhmtii.li
the exertions and persuasive influences
of the keepers soon became tranqud and
quiet.
Dr. Graham in conversation with
Statesman reporter stated that the asy
lum waa greatly overcrowded Dei ore.
but now this unfortunate accident places
' FORTT-8IX XORX PATIENTS
upon his hands to be provided for. He
says that they may be cared for tern
porarily by- crowding the already over
crowded wards still further but that
some arrangements will have to be made
at an early day.
LESSONS OP THS PIKX.
If the Are yeslerday demonstrates any
one thing more than ano ther It is
that some protection against such acci-
dents to the state buildings should be
had.r Especially is this applicable to the
insane asylum where the most unfortu-
nate and helpless class ia con-
fined. ' At present there is absolutely no
protection at all and when it ia reflected
how much worse yesterd y's disaster
might have been nothing that could be
said here is calculated to strengthen the
argument in favor of the state applying
a much needed remedy.

DALLAS.
Dallas April 12. The storm .king
after subjecting this section yesterday
evening to a hall storm unprecedented In
Its severity completely astonished and
bewildered the oldest and young-
est inhabitant this morning by a
combination of rain and hall
that completely eclipsed all ' pre-
vious efforts for lour hours commenc-
ing about nine o'clock. Water and ball
fell In expressible torrents and tbe
streets rivaled ordinary rivers. After
last evening's hall tbe windows and
roofs of tbe principal buildings of the
city presented tbe appearance of
having stood In front of a bat-
tery ot Gatlln guns in full blast.
Every metallic roof is separated
and leaking. It has done Immense dam-
age to stocks of goods. Tbe total damage
In Dallas Is estimated to be eloso on to
one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
No reports have yet been received from
tbe country as the streams are out of
banks but It Is thought the loss to sheep
young cattle and wheat will be
great. The rain this morning flooded tbe
basements of many business houses.
The worst sufferers are tbe Dally Berald.
The damage to the press and stock-room
and contents is estimated at from $10000
to $12000. An effort will be made to get
out a diminished paper in the moinlne
Water in the building five feet deep. E.
M. Tillman wholesale liquor dealer in the
same building was also visited and
large number of barrels of liquor in the
cellar were found with the bungs out.
Tillman estimates his loss at $8000.
These firms talk ol suing tbe city on ac
count of the Insufficient drainage and
sewerage of Its streets. The storms will
occasion the postponement of tbe com-
mencement of Dallas Jockey club meet
ing until next Saturday. The city was
full ol strangers from all parts ol the
country and much Inconvenience and
disappointment results. There are near
ly sne hundred horses present. All will

SPRING CLEANING.
Tiie Pleasures Experienced by
Haai With sx Spring'
Cleaning Wife.
Human joys are never unalloyed. Even
our Easter festivities are saddened with
fearful forebodings. " Coming events cast
their shadows before the family man. He
beholds the wife of his bosom descend
from ber chamber this morning gorgeous
in her spring array clothed in garments
that would have turned the heads of
Solomon and all his wives plus ihe
queen of Sheba and make the lily hide
its face in envy as nearly an angel as a
creature in a fiity-dobar bonnet and
other things to match well can be. He
is almost transfixed for a moment with
the radiant spectacle and he repents that
he did not give her another hundred or
so. Alas that memory should obtrude
ber sombre visage at such an interest-
ing moment! But there is no help
for it. And his heart sinks as he thinks
that this beautiful being of to-day
will be transformed into a stern-faced
despot in a week and armed with mop
and broom drive mm almost to despera
tion with her doings. She will turn his
home into a bedlam and fill it with
house cleaning fiends. Not a quiet spot
will be left in it lor tbe sole of his foot
His meals will be uncooked or burned.
and always unpalatable. He will retire
to meditate but not to sleep on a row of
chairs or a sofa too short at both ends.
He will step on the business end of c
carpet-tack in tryiug to find his stock
ings ; wash his pallid face in a soup
tureen : get lost in the folds of some
strange article of female attire he has
mistaken for a shirt ; straighten out his
locks with a fork and as he contemplates
his new silk hat which some servant
has mistaken for a coal-scuttle filled
with c:nden he will sit down on the
broken top of a Saratoga trunk and wish
be bad never been born.
There is nothing that takes down tbe
pride of man and shows him how little
and contemptible a wretch he is as a
week of house cleaning. The fate of
family man at this season of tbe year is
truly pitiful. He would go out of town
or to the hotel but be has overdrawn his
salary to pay for the gorgeous Easter out
fit of bis wiie ana daughters lie can
not fly to tbe desert f or "he would freeze
there. Besides bis wife charges him
with running away from what she so
courageously endures. For every club
there are a hundred Mrs. Caudles and
woe to the poor husband who deserts bis
frail and delicate wile when the house-
cleaning fit is on her. He has nothiDg
to do but bear it and grin if
he can . And in trying to worry through
the work he discovers what an accumula
tion of miseries modern civilization is.
Every carpet is a torment. Every pic-
ture is a plague. Every modern con
venience seems to have been invented to
hide the Cleaning fiend. The more
comforts the greater his trouble . All his
pretty luxuries turn their.faces and seem
to taunt and jeer. Of c urse he turns
to business as a solace. Uis accounts
need a great deal of overhauling just at
this time. He bethinks him of every
conceivable excuse to get away. He even
suggests that his soul needs looking after
and proposes to lake nimseii to a prayer-
meeting for spiritual repairs. It is of
no use. The practical house cleaner un
derstands all their dodges. ' The thing
may as well be bravelyfaced and silently
endured. It is one of the institutions of
every we'l ordered household. Indeed.
it is a badge of civilization. One might
escape from untold tribulations by be-
coming a savage. And though it is a
weariness and vexation which the hotel-
cured and club-preserved bachelor
avoids it is a small price to pay for the
mxnrv nr m ciesn. muei. nuvvv uuuie. in
which one can always find affection and
content. House cleaning is not exact y
to be han&ered after : yet there is a deal
of oimfort to the "family man in the
thought that it comes but once a year.
Sailea Death mt a cire Has
Friday a co'ored man named Martin
Solomon died very suddenly or what is
apposed to be heart disease. He and
his brother-in-law went out in the woods
near where tbey resided on the northern
outskirts of the city to gather wood.
While oat there Solomon was lacen witn
a spasm. - His companion ran back to the
house and otlned bis people of what
had transpired and wnea assistance
reached him the man was dead. This is
the statement of Solomon's wife. She
says ber husband has been sick lor a long
time with what was supposed to be
heart disease.

who look exactly as though thry

expire which tbey do after several
months' time. Twcntv-bve dollars
is a little dear for such a short-lived
ornament but at present they are
none the less the rage and the de-
mand exceeds the supply.
