Texas, whereby certain injunction
suits at Austin were to be dismissed
and that the oil companies were to pay
the producer's tax of 1 per cent into the
state treasury, but that they were not
to pay the tax as pipe line companies,
dealers or refiners, he stated that such
was not the agreement and the suits
were dismissed on no such condition:
that the agreement and conditions were
expressly provided for by an instru-
ment In writing executed by him and
the various attorneys for the plaintiffs
representing the oil companies and this
instrument of writing requires that the
oil companies should pay:
First—The producer’s tax of 1 per
cent.
Second—The pipe line tax of 2 per
cent.
Third—The car rent tax of 2 per
cent.
The only tax which the state claims
of these oil companies and is not paid
under this agreement is the’ tax aris-
ing under section: 9 of the Kennedy
gross tax bill which section levies a
tax upon persons, associations of per-
sons or corporatiors engaged in the oil

payers at this time are too grave to permit of any make-
Shift polities. The members of the council who voted for
this city hall ordinance did so actuated by the purest
motives. They figured out doubtless that it they got the
hall started that it would be a step in the direction of
securing a consummation of their greatly coveted desire
to have a new city hall. For that they aro entitled to
due consideration. Patriotism to beautify the city was
their prompting motive. Now, however, they must realize
upon second thought that the city of Austin is In no posi-
tion to assume any further obligations and that the as-
sumption of them merely means additional litigation and
B greater burden upon the taxpayers.
In consideration of these facts it looks but reasonable .
to say that the council will reconsider its previous notion
nnd set aside, for the time being at least, the Idea of build-
ing a city hall. The city hall would be very acceptable
if we-had the money. We haven't the money, however. .

Judge T. J. Freeman, general attor-
ney of the Texas and Pacific railway,
who reached here yesterday morning at
11 o’clock from Dallas with the papers
in the injuntion case brought by the
railroads against the railroad commis-
sion, enjoining it from the enforcement
of the dry goods emergency order issued
on September 12 and effective on Sep-
tember 15, called on the commission
yesterday. ‛
Judge Freeman filed the papers in
the federal court. He said that the in-
junction proceedings may be tried be-
fore Judge McCormack at any place
where he sees fit, but that when the
case comes up for trial on its merits
it will have to be tried at Austin as
this is the domicile of the railroad
commission. Judge Freeman declared
that the granting of the temporary
writ by Judge McCormack at Dallas,
Wednesday, had the effect of immedi-
ately canceling the rate, notwithstand-
ing the fact that the commission has
not as yet been served with the writ of
Injunction. He said the commislon
was given notice of the action of the
railroads.
The railroad commislon will fight
the case to the end. Judge Storey,
chairman of the commission, said yes-
terday: "We are ready to fight the
case." Commisioners Mayfield and
Colquitt are both out of the city, the
former at Uvalde on a hunting trip

RAIN IS NEEDED
Captain Schreiner of Kerr County Was
a Visitor Here.
Captain G. A. Schreiner of Kerrville,
one of the wealthiest stockmen in that
section of the state, was here yester-
day on personal business and was a
caller at the adjutant general’s de-
partment.
Captain Schreiner said in answer to.
a question that stock was in excellent
condition on the different ranches
owned by him and his father, but that
rain was badly needed th certain sec-
tions.
The main Schreiner raich is situate 1
about forty-five milez from the town
of Kerrville. There are some of the
finest springs of water in that section
that can be found anywhere in the state
and much of the water used by the
stock for drinking is derived from these
springs.
