AUSTIN, Tex., June 2$.—In 1<97 Attor
ney General Crane instituted twenty
•suits aginst the International & Great
Northern Railroad Company, charging
it with giving rebates on freight ship
ments to the National Cotton Oil Com-
pany of Houston and other corporations
and Individuals while Col. T. M. Camp
bell was general manager.
The Railroad Commission had been ad-
vised that Colonel Campbell's road was
violating the law as to giving rebates,
so It ordered an Investigation, its ex-
pert in those days was 10. M. l.'nderhill,
who had no superior in Investigating
business transactions on the part of tli-j
railroad companies. .„/-
Mr. I'nderhiU found from an examina-
tion ol' the books of the International &
Great Northern Railroad that it had been
giving rebates to the National Cotton
Oil Company of Houston. That the re-
bates paid to this company aggregated
$1781.73 and that they were paid by the
International in November and December,
1SD.J, and in February and March, 1896.
That rebates were paid on cotton seed
and hulls from Jewett and Oakwoods to
Houston. That on shipments from T. F.
Smith at Crockett a rebate of $128 was
allowed, while on a similar shipment
from lluntsvllle no rebate was paid,
showing a rank discrimination in favor
ol Crockett against lluntsvllle. But
these minor facts are not important.
Copies made by Mr. ITnflerhill of vouch-
ers in the general office of the Interna-
tional & Great Northern show that the
claims were allowed for these "over-
charges," as they were termed, and in
some instances the name of T. M. Camp-
bell appears on the voucher, per that of
his clerk, but some of the vouchers al-
lowed on these rebates show the signa-
ture of T. M. Campbell without the at-
test of his clerk.
One of tile rebating claims which Colo-
nel Campbell approved called for $titi.lt).
After Mr. rnderhill made his investi-
gation for the Railroad Commission, the
Commission formally heard the case, as
the law directs, and the evidence was so
conclusive that the papers, along with
Mr. Underbill's report, were transmittted
to the Attorney General.
Attorney General Crane filed twenty
suits on I he part of the State of Texas
against the International A.- Great North-
ern Railroad Company in which the giv-
ing of rebates to the National Cotton Oil
Company and others of Houston was al-
leged. The penalty sued for in each cas.;
was for tin recovery of Siooo, which is
the maximum allowed under the law,
the minimum being $500.
The cases are on the docket of the
Travis County District Court and are
numbered 13756 to 1377,"), Inclusive.
When the suits were called for trial
the International & Great Northern Rail-
road Company came forward and en-
tered a plea of guilty, and was fined $500
in each case, making a total of $10,000 in
the twenty cases. Colonel Campbell
left the road In May, 1897,
The last official act of Judge C. K. Bell
while he was Attorney General was to
file suit against this same National Cot-
ton Oil Company, charging It with fixing
the price of cotton seed, which was in
restraint of trade. He sued to forfeit
its charter, and was successful in all of
the State courts.
The company appealed the ease to the
Supreme Court of the United States
and I In re Judge Bell whipped it out of
existence, and it no longer menaces trade,
lis charter was forfeited, due to the pur-
suit made against it by Judge bell.

surance, Statistics and History and Su-
perintendent of Banking, today received
from Judge Scth Shepard of Washington,
I). a written record of the proceed-
ings of the first session of the Senate of
the Third Texas Congress.
'I his anei( nt volume was found among
some old papers in the archives at Wash-
ington and was placed in the hands of
Judge Shepard, who decided that the
State of Texas is the proper custodian of
the historic record.
It appears to be more of an executive
record ot the Senate proceedings than it
is a minute book of that body. It con-
tains lull account of the pro< xdings of
the executive sessions of the Senate, in-
cluding the confirmations ol appoint-
ments (.f Cabinet officers .luring the
\ ears 1 MS and lS'W, as well as of minis-
ters and consuls to foreign countries.
The volume is in a good state of preser-
vation and has been placed in the

Adjutant General Thinks Frontier Pro-
tection Item Will Be 'Allowed.
Daily Express Austin Bureau.
AUSTIN. Tex., June 28.—Adjutant Gen-
eral John A. Hulen is still very hopeful
that the appropriation of $375,000 to reim-
burse Texas for money expended m fron-
tier protection will be passed at this
session of Congress.
Although the item was discarded from
the House appropriation bill on a point
of order by a member of that body, it
will probably be reinstated in the bill m
the Senate, and If so it will doubtless be
favorably acted upon by the Free Con-
ference Committee and tip passed finally.
it wouid come in good stead just as this
time, when the generel revenue fund of
the State Treasury is in a deplented con-
dition.

Special Telegram to The Express.
WACO, Tex., June 28.—The jury in the
case of Mark Rice, charged with the
murder of Luther Phelan, brought in a
verdict at 9 o'clock this morning, as-
sensing the death penalty. The case was
given to the jury last night at 11 o'clock,
and only three ballots were taken on the
case this morning. The first was to de-
cide as to his guilt or Innocence. The
jury was unanimous in its vote that the
defendant was guilty of murder in the
first degree, as charged.
It took two ballots to decide the pun-
ishment. The first stood eleven for the
death penalty, and on the second the
jury was unanimous in favor of the
death penalty. The defendant received
the verdict with stoicism, showing a
little nervousness. The case will be ap-
pealed if a new trial is not given.
Five arrests on the charge of perjury
in the Mark Rice case were made soon
after the verdict was rendered by the
jury. The following are the men ar-
rested: Ed Duty, Ed Prather, <'. H.
Canant. John Dowd and L E. Jones.
All the defendants were witnesses for
Rice in the trial. The arrests grew out
of the testimony of ,1. A. Prather. The
men waived examination this afternoon,
and their bonds were fixed 'at $2500 by
Justice Minor Moore.
The tragedy for which Rice Is convicted
occurred January H. Luther Phelan, who
ran a saloon at Fifth and Franklin, re-
ceived a mortal wound and died from the
effects five days later. Rice was ar-
rested at once and placed in jail. When
the Grand Jury met it returned a bill of
indictment, charging him with murder
in the first degree.
The trial has been in progress for one
week, and has been stoutly contested.
The plea of the defendant was self-de-
fense.
J. A. Prather, one oftfthe witnesses for
the defense, when placed on the stand
the first time, testified that he was an
eye witness to the.tragedy, and his tes-
timony bore out the theory of self-de-
fense.
Later in the trial Prather took the
stand and swore that his first testimony
was false, and that he did not see the
tragedy and was at home. He said he
had been paid to testify for the defense,
receiving $29, and that he had been prom-
ised $50 in all. He said that his con-
ience hurt him so that he could not
keep from going oft the stand the second
lime and making a clean breast of the
affair. The testimony produced a pro-
found sensation.
The defendant is 35 years of age and
was reared in this county. He belongs
to one of the best known families in the
county, and the fight for his life will
be continued to the last resort.

A Prominent Cincinnati Woman Tolls
How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Completely Curad Her.
The great good Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is doing among
the women of America is attracting
the attention of many of our leading
scientists, and thinking people gener-
illy.
SIGNED BY SAM HOUSTON.
A Deed, Executed in Days of the Re-
public, Presented to the Alamo.
William G. Evans of Bandera County
has presented to the Alamo, through the
custodian, Miss Florence Eager, the orig-
inal deed of a tract of land in Goliad
County, to his grandfather, William G.
Evans, executed by President Sam Hous-
ton at Austin, Aug. 27. in conformity
with the laws of the Republic of Texas.
The deed, written in ink on thin sheep-
skin, has been framed and occupies a
conspicuous position on the north wall
in the main corridor of the Alamo.
William G. Evans, the original grantee
of the land, was the first Sheriff of
Harris Colmty.
The deed is still legible, bearing In
plain view the seal of the Republic and
I he signatures of the President and Land
Jlirs Sarcr IVi/son
The following letter is only one of
many thousands which are on file in
the Pinkham office, and go to prove
beyond question that Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound must be a
remedy of great merit, otherwise it
could not produce such marvelous re-
sults among sick and ailing women.
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
" About nine months ago I was a great suf-
ferer with womb trouble, which caused m«
severe pain extreme nervousness and fre-
quent headaches, from which the doctor
failed to relieve mo. I tried Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound, and within a
short time felt better, and after taking five
bottles of it I was entirely cured. I therefore
heartily recommend your Compound as a
splendid uterine tonic. It makes the monthly
periods regular and without pain ; and wha'ti
a blessing it is to find such a remedy after so
many doctors fail to help you. I am pleased
to recommend it to all suffering women."—
Mrs. Kara Wilson, 31 East 3d Street, Cincin-
nati, Ohio.
If you have suppressed or painful
menstruation, weakness of the stom-
ach, indigestion, bloating, leucorrhoea,
flooding, nervous prostration, dizzi-
ness, faintness, "don't-care" and
" want-to-be-left-alone " feeling, ex-
citability, backache or the blues, these
are sure indications of female weak-
ness, some derangement of the uterus
or ovarian trouble. In such cases there
is one tried and true remedy—Lydia
IS. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
