ARRIVED FROM CALIFORNIA.
Messrs. A. J. Truchard & Co., always
keep abreast of the times and furnish the
public with wines and liquors to suit all
seasons of the year. They have just re-
ceived direct from California a large con-
signment of pure strawberry brandy, dis-
tilled from the best fruit that grows on
the Pacific Coast. This is a delicious,
wholesome, refreshing beverage, and is
extensively used as a tonic. See their
advertisement in another column.
MUST CLEAN UP.
Some twelve or fifteen of our represen-
tative citizens were reported to the police
to-day for violations of the sanitary regu-
lations of the city. The cases were con-
tinued this morning until Saturday to
give the delinquents an opportunity to
comply with the regulations. In every
instance the offense was a failure to place
slop barrels where the slop carts could
get at and empty them. Somehow peo-
ple will be negligent in this, to them, im-
portant matter. There is no greater pro-
moter of disease than this carelessness in
allowing slops to accumulate around the
premises. All the sanitary regulations
require is that the vessels containing
slops shall be placed outside where the
slop-carts can empty them. This is cer-
tainly an easy task and one that no one
should wait to be compelled by the law’s
requirements to attend to. The health
of one’s family, and the comfort of one’s
neighbors would require this simple com-
pliance with the law.

Fight Against Sugar Planters.

Washington, June 13.—A writer in
Capital says: “Secretary Fairchild is
going before the senate special commit-
tee on custom bouses soon, and he will
make some very interesting disclosures
in regard to the manner in which his ef-
forts to collect the sugar duties have
been opposed by certain reform influences
in New York. I understand that the
sugar men have been threatening to de-
feat Cleveland next fall, if Mr. Fairchild
does not let the sugar duties be collected
in the old way, by which the sugar im-
porters pocketed more than $1000 a day
than they are now receiving. As a re-
sult of thise disclosures some important
changes in the New York customhouse
may follow.”
In this connection, it may be said, that
news has been received here from New

Minister Resident at the Hague—The
Latest Diplomatic Appointment.
The appointment of Robert B. Roose-
velt as United States Minister to the
Netherlands, is one that everybody ap-
proves. Mr. Roosevelt’s has been a
busy and useful life, although he has
always enjoyed more than the financial
means necessary to the life of leisure.
His mission to the Netherlands is of no
importance to him for its money
value of seventy-five hundred dollars a
year. Mr. Roosevelt is President of the
Holland Trust Company. New York.
How his going to The Hague will influ-
ence his businuss affairs is his own private
concern. A descendant of the sturdy
stock who first settled the American
metropolis, he will show the ancestral
Dutch what has been the influence of two
centuries or more of American life on the
renowned men and women who are proud
to trace their descent from it. That a
Roosevelt should be Minister to Holland
is strictly in accordance with “the eternal
fitness of things.”
Mr. Roosevelt was born in New York
in the year 1829. He is a graduate of
Harvard and a lawyer by profession.
At an early period of his life he sur-
rendered a large practice in order to de -
vote himself to liteaature and politics.
He was fond of athletic sport and a
prominent yachtsman.
He has always been a Democrat. Dur-
ing the height of the Tweed rogues’
revelry in New York hes assisted in the
organization ol the Citizens’ Association.
Subsequently he joined the Democratic
Union, an organization opposed to Tam-
many Hall. He was a member of the
Forty-second Congress. While at Wash-
ington he distinguished himself in up-
setting the plans of a dishonest ring.
It was towards the end of his term in
Congress that the people rose against the
rules of Tammany Hall, and the commit-
tee of seventy was formed. The word of
the Committee released the city from the
domination of Tweed and his associates.
Mr. Roosevelt was one of the “War
Democracy,” giving active and earnest
support to the Union cause while continu-
ing a Democrat. He served as one of the
Commissioners of the Brooklyn Bridge,
and has been an Alderman-at-Large of
his native city.
A County Treasurer’s Shortage.
Associated Press.
Omaha, June 13.—A Bee special from
Central City, Neb., says a committee ap-
pointed by the county commissioners to
examine the books of the treasurer,
Colonel W. H. Webster, reported a
shortage of about $35,000 in his accounts.
Colonel Webster’s deputy, Otto Foster,
was also found to be short $1000. Web-
ster has property worth $20,000, which,
it is said, he will turn over to the county.
PAVING TAXES.
For years the courts of this city and
the supreme courts of the state, for that
matter, have been encumbered with a
number of cases wherein a number of
the citizens of Galveston were attempting
to evade the payment of what is known
as the paving tax. One by one these cases
have gone through the courts and one
by one they have been decided against
the defendents. These cases are parelled
by the cases on the court dockets resist-
ing the payment of the school tax—in
many cases the defendents being the
same, but in each instance the courts
have held that both taxes are legal and
binding. One of these cases and one
among the last on the dockets of the
courts was decided yesterday in the dis-
trict court in favor of the city.
It does seem that people would get tired
of resisting the payment of such taxes—
especially taxes that have contributed so
much to the benefit of the city and those
who abide here. Col. Finlay, city at-
torney is endeavoring to clear these cases
from the court dockets and it is to be
hoped for the credit of the city that the
school and paving tax will in the future
be paid as promptly as other taxes are.

sound, sweet sleep. Try it.
As noted yesterday Judge Sabin had
returned from Tyler, and was engaged in
preparing the papers in the Reich extra-
dition case for the purpose of forward-
ing the same to the state department at
Washington. It was necessary to make
full copies of the proceedings had before
this court. This copy the attorneys for
the defendant were engaged in verifying.
The elder Burns, of the firm representing
the defense, informed Evening Tribune
that he did not feel discouraged as to
ultimate success of the defense. The
next step will be to apply to Judge Par-
dee, at New Orleans, for a wiit of habeas
corpus. The defense believes that the
hearing before this court will result dif-
ferently from the decision already ren-
dered, and that it will be a long time be-
fore the German authorities have his
client back where they seem so anxious
to have him. The prisoner is still in
jail.

Kellogg on the Republican Nominee
for the Presidency.
Associated ■ ress.
Washington, June 13. — Ex-Senator
Kellogg has left Washington for the Chi-
cago convention. Before starting "West
he was asked about the attitude of the
Louisiana delegation, and replied: “We
are all at sea since Mr. Blaine’s last letter
came out. It is a condition of perplexity,
doubt and anxiety all around, now that
he is out of rhe way. I guess, after all,
the best thing the other candidates can
do is to get out of the way too and nom-
inate him by acclamation. There is no
positive drift to any other man yet, so far
as our delegation is concerned. If the
New York, New Jersey and Connecticut
delegations will present a man and say
he can carry those states he can get most
of the votes of the Southern states. In
Louisiana a few delegates are now for
Sherman, but everywhere are they desir-
ous to know what these three states want.
If they can agree on any man he can have
the nomination. I do not see how we
can nominate Mr. Blaine after his last
letter. Of course, there will be some
votes cast for h’m anyhow. If all the
candidates should pull out and ask him
to come in that would bring him out, but
they are human beings, and not likely to
do that.”

ROBERT B. ROOSEVELT,
The Tehuantepec Ship Railway.
Associated Press.
Washington, June 13.—Maj. E. L.
Corthell, of Chicago, engineer for the
Tehuantepec Ship Railway, passed
through Washington from New York,
where he . had been on business for the
company. It seems that the directors
of the Eads Concession company held a
meeting in the Fuller Building, in Jersey
City, and decided to contract with the
Atlantic and Pacific Construction com-
pany to construct and equip the ship
railway across the isthmus, on the lines
contemplated by the concession made to
the late Capt. Eads by the Mexican gov-
ernment. Col. James xindrews of Pitts-
burg, and William E. Williams, of New
York, were appointed a committee to
negotiate the bonds of the company iu
American, English and French markets.
The contract stipulates that the work of
construction shall be begun within one
year and be completed within five years.
The scheme embraces the hoisting of
loaded vessels upon cradles and carrying
them across the isthmus, from ocean to
ocean, by means of powerful locomo-
tives. A hydraulic apparatus has been
patented by which a ship can be lifted
and carried without danger of straining
her while in transit.

. Dear Sib—Knowing that many persons in this
city are now suffering as I have from catarrh I
deemit my duty to the public, as well as one of
gratitude to you to write you a condensed history of
my case, I have been afflicted with catarrh from
my childhood, and at times have suffered very great
pain caused by risings in my head, from which I
could get no relief until they broke and discharged
their contents of blood and mucus, which was not
only very disagreeable, but affected my general
health. I have tried many different remedies, and
have been treated by specialists, but have never re-
ceived any but temporary relief until last summer
while upon a visit to my brother-in-law, Mr. Geo.
Burck, of Calvert, Texas. He induced me to try
your ‘Cactarine” remedies, which I found both
pleasant and easy to apply. I soon found that I
was being benefittedby their use. Since then I have
peen faithful in the use of “Cactarine” and feel
that I have been well repaid for my trouble and ex-
pense; I believe that I am almost well of my cat-
arrh, and for months past have not suffered from
catarrhal headache nor risings in my head. My
general health is better than it has been for fifteen
years, and I believe that if you had oeen able to per-
sonally superintend my ease I would now be entirely
well, but as I was treated by correspondence, you
never having seen me, I feel that “Cacterine leme-
dies have performed a wonderful cure in my case
and shall cheerfully recommend their use to those
afflicted with catarrh as I have been. I hope that
you will put your remedies on the market here for
sale, so that all who wish relief may be able to get
then. On receipt of this please send me by express,
C. O. D., one more complete outfit, for four months
treatment, for my neice, who is also affected with
catarrh. Wishing you health and happiness, I am
yours respect!ally, MRS. S. B. BURCK.

LAWN PARTY.
Next Monday evening, the 18th, St.
Andrews’ Guild, of the Episcopal church,
will give a lawn party at the chapel
grounds, on Mechanic street, between
Eleventh and Twelfth streets. The ob-
jects of the entertainment are to raise
funds with which to purchase an organ
and finish the North Mission chapel.
This is sufficient to call the friends of this
worthy undertaking to its assistance—
especially when one of the features of the
evening will be the adjustment of a tail
to a tailless donkey, a game that must be
participated in to be properly enjoyed.

MORE RACING.
Things were interesting at Rosenberg
park again last evening. Sol. Cleveland
does not intend to let things get cool,
and that is the only way to make a suc-
cess of this kind of an enterprise. The
entertainment last evening consisted of
a quarter dash, five entries, for a $50
saddle. The race was won by Bob Mil-
ler’s tjvo-year-old brown colt, with W. J.
William’s sorrel second, W. Pierson
third, Otto Weinberg fourth and H.
Germain fifth. It was a pretty race and
proved that Galveston has some good
quarter-mile stock. Another, and not
less interesting was a trotting race be-
tween W. J. William’s Dandy and Dr.
Luckett’s brown mare. The mare won
the first heat, but Dandy took the second
and third and the race.
AN INTERESTING CASE.
The case of embezzlement that will be
heard in the police court to-morrow prom-
ises to attract considerable attention. It
is intimated that this will be followed by
several other and possibly graver charges
against the defendant Pond.
