THE MEETING TONIGHT ! I
Taxpayers can hear the bond question
fully and openly discussed at Rlsche’s
Opera House tonight. Everybody in-
vited. Mayor Paschal is expected to
sneak.
The Philanthropist Did it.
A very careful citizen comes to the res-
cue of his fellow banker Breckenridge
with the plea that the water works are
first beginning to pay and he ought to be
left alone to enjoy the fruits of his labor.
The trouble with the colonel is that he
imagines himself an eminent engineer
and after he squeezed poor old Lacoste
out of his stock he proceeded to
tear up the twelve Inch main
and put down a 16-inch main; and after-
wards pulled up the 16-inch main and put
down a 20-inch main. In doing this he
tore up and destroyed thesl2ooo improve-
ment put on Avenue C. This was thun-
dering poor engineering; a competent en-
gineer would have saved fats redicuious
experimental business. The Col. is great
on experimental engineering and his asso-
ciates have believed in him.

What the $25000 Will Do.
“An Engineer” says “I have heard the
question asked what is to be done with
the $25000?” Surely those who ask the
question have not read the mayor’s mes-
sage or the election proclamation. The
whole thing is explained in these docu-
ments. My idea is that $5000 or less will
give complete surveys plans and esti-
mates for sewerage ana water works.
I base my estimate upon the
work done by Mr. Rudolph Her-
ring a distinguished hydraulic en-
gineer for Los Angelos California. The
reports of an expert will determine which
system of sewerage is the best for this
city. With the remaining $200000r more
at prices established from six to eight
artesian wells can be sunk which will
yield a supply of water ample for years to
come. Ido not believe that a dollar of
the money will be thrown away.”
Tuesday night a street car collision oc-
curred on Houston street at the crossing
of the Alamo street car track. A car on
that line ran into a car on the San Pedro
line knocking it off of the track and bad-
ly wrecking it. The motorman P. L.
Filter was arrested for failing to have
his motor under control and his case was
tried by the recorder this morning. Re-
corder Shardein said: “You were care-
less and lives were in danger and I’ll tine
you $25.” Attorney Barnard for the Ala-
mo Electric Street Car company gave
notice of appeal.

TRAIN ROBBERS’ ATTEMPT.
FIREMAN MARTIN SHOT AND
INSTANTLY KILLED
Near Brackenridge by a Desperado
Nambd May Who was Cap-
tured and Jailed.
An attempt to rob an afternoon passen-
ger train on the Aransas Pass railroad 1
hound for Corpus Christi from San Anto-
nio was made yesterday afternoon
near Brackenridge which has creattd
great excitement throughout the south-
west. From all that could be learned the
affair was as follows:
About 4:25 as the train left Brecken-
ridge a man entered the cab of the en-
gine ordering theengineer to slow upas
the train was crossing the bridge and
stop on the other side. Fireman Frank
Martin seeing the desperate man and
fearing him jumped from the engine
and as he struck the ground the intruder
fired and the ball passed through Mar-
tin's body killing nnn almost instantly
The engineer. Mike Tierney was bewil-
dered. so much so that for a few mo-
ments he was not able to door say any-
thing but succeeded in some way. in get-
ting out of the cab. The robber sprang to
the seat of the engineer and started the
train. The conductor Ed Steele heard
the shot and as the train had been
checked then starred he at once detected
that something was wrong andnap-
plied the air from one of the coaches
thus succeeding in bringing it to a stand
still. As the train was slowing up
the robber jumped and ran
ahead. He passed a section house just
beyond the bridge and C H. Smith a
section hand seeing the whole proceed-
ings exchanged shots with the demon
and succeeded in capturing him.
The story oi the capture is told best by
Section Hand Smith who said:
“By an accident I happened to be at
home. 1 am the section foreman with my
headquarters on the edge of Brackenridge
I was hurt by falling from a hand ear sev-
eral days ago and had not been able to go
to work. I had been robbed a few nights
before and received a telegram from the
sheriff. Seale to be ready to meet him so
as to identify my watch and a person ar-
rested by him. As the train reached the
stock pens and stopped I saw a man run
ning down the track with a pair of six-
shooters in his hands I saw theengineer
and Conductor Steele tiring at him
Just as I stuck my head out of the win-
dow. the man at once fired the ball strik-
ing in the wall within a foot of whore in y
daughter was standing and not missing
her head more than three inches. I felt
the air from It. I ran and grabbed my
gun and ran out and threw it down on
him and pulled the trigger but it mLsed
tire and then 1 real'zed that it was empty
but 1 hallowed to him to halt which he
did throwing up one of his hands. I low-
ered my gun in an instant At that moment
he fired at tne but missed me and tired
over my shoulder. I then ran towards
him as fast as I could and told him I
would kill him if he moved an ither inch.
He stumbled and dropped ills two pistols.
By that time I got to him. picked up his
pistols and asked him why he had shot in-
to my house and wanted to kill my
daughter and had tired at me? He an-
swered: ‘When a man is being pursued
and shot at he is not particular where he
shoots or who he shoots at.' I was
tempted to kill him there and then with
his own gun but thought I would find
out what was up so I took him to where
Steele and Tierney were and turned him
over to Steele.”
After the robber had been turned over
to Steele he gave his name as John 1).
May but refused to talk of the affair
saying only that he knew not where his
companions were. As the engine was fol-
lowing May however four men were
seen driving away from the track at a
rapid gait and it is thought that they
were to assist in the robbing on the other
side ot the bridge after the train
stopped.
May. who is a tough looking fellow
was taken to Karnes City where he was
turned over to Sheriff Seale of Karnes
county. He is about 25 years of age and
is a stranger. A letter found on his per-
son addressed to him at Cotulla con-
veyed the news that his associates were
busily engaged in locating a spot for the
robbery which had evidently been long
contemplated.
On the train was considerable money
which was being conveyed to a Beeville
bank aud this fact it is thought was
known by the desperate men.
The remains of young Martin arrived
here last night and were taken to Sheern
& Burnett’s undertaking establishment.
Mr. Martin was a tine looking man; aged
22 years. The left arm had been cut off
about eight inches below the shoulder
and the right leg was badly mashed. The
remains will be properly cared for and the
funeral will take place this afternoon at
3 o'clock.
A MOB IN READINESS.
As soon as the news of the tragic at-
tempt was received in this city Sheriff
Campbell Chief Detective T. J. Hughes
United States Marshal Ware. Deputy
United States Marshal Kilgore Deputy
Sheriff Van Riper and Detectives Bowen
and Bader started on a special train for
the scene.
The news soon spread over the city and
it was not long before the platform at the
Aransas Pass depot was crowded with cit-
izens who were enraged with wrath and
nmny were ready to lynch the man who
did the killing. Just before the time
the train was expected the crowd and
excitement having greatly increased it
was beard by the police authorities that
a mob was awaiting the arrival of the
train and that May would be killed.
City Marshal Druse Captain Jesse
A. Bennett and a dozen police
officers repaired in the patrol
wagon to the depot to keep
the peace. Matters quieted for a time
and the patrol wagon was driven west
towards the turn of the track near the
I. it G. N. depot. The mob thinking
there might be a possibility of the prison-
er beine taken from the train at that
point followed the wagon. They were

very indignant when a message was re-
ceived conveying the intelligence
that the murderer was safely lodged
in the Karnes County jail.
It was ascertained this morning that as
many as 300 men started out going in dif-
ferent directions to locate and capture
if possible the rest of the train robbers.
Most of the men have been deputised and
those who are not are accompanied by
officers. It is believed that May’s asso-
ciates are nearing the border and if such
be the case they will undoubtedly be
caught.
United States Marshal Ware was seen
on the street this morning and Stated that
young May the murderer is well known
in Texas coming from a well-to-do and
highly esteemed family. He says the
man’s right name is being kept in secret
owing to his family. Mr. Ware has
known him from childhood.
Word has been received In the city that
May is not in jail now but is hid in some
brush and guarded by five officers. He
will be taKen with the officers who are to
leave today in pursuit of the demons so
that if they are found he can identify
them which he is willing to do.
A number of tne Sap employes are lay-
ing off today being too enraged over the
occurence to properly attend to their
duties. One of those was heard to re-
mark this morning: “It is lucky for May
that he was not brought here for he
would have died a horrrible death. ”
Up to the time the Light goes to press
there have been no telegrams received
relative to the horrible affair. though the
officers here are hourly expecting word
conveying the news of the capture of the
other four men.
