The United States ".'rather Bureau has
made arrangement with the telephone
companies for the dissemination of offlcal
information pertaining to the meteoro-
logical conditions of Southwest Texas.
This arrangement will become operative
July 1 or immediately thereafter.
The bureau has never had a medium of
dissemination that in every respect was
satisfactory. Formerly the only way of
transmitting the news of approaching
storms or other unusual atmospheric dis-
turbances was by telegraph. This neces-
sarily restricted such intelligence to
small areas, as there was no way of con-
tinuing the information to the rural dis-
tricts, which are more benefited by the
warning.
Will Reach
All the Farmers.
The new system to be employed by the
bureau will reach practically all the small
farming regions in the Southwest and
will be operatced by both local and long-
distance exchanges.
Throughout the entire tprritary tribu^
tary to San Antonio the telephone corn-
panics have established rural lines, which
connect the different farming districts.
The wires in some instances are strung
on poles, but in many cases the barbed
wire fences are utilized to carry the cur-
rent of electricity. By this system every
small farming section of the Southwest-
ern territory can be reached and the in-
formation of the Weather Bureau dis-
seminated where it is most in demand.
As soon as the system becomes oper-
ative, each morning Major Buell, in
charge of the station, will instruct the
central / operator and long-distance ex-
changes of the telephone companies in
regard to the weather conditions. Over
the local lines the news will bo sent to
each substation, long-distance imparting
it to the foreign exchanges throughout
the Southwest.
Official information concerning the
weather being in the possession of the
central operators of all the stations sur-
rounding San Antonio, those desiring to
know the meteorological condition can
ascertain by, asking. It is not the inten-
tion to have the central operators call
up the owners of telephones in the rural
districts and apprise them voluntarily of
the condition of the weather, because
tuch action would be superfluous, as
there are many who do not require the
information. By having a medium of
transmission, however, when the news is
in demand the bureau thinks that bene-
ficial results will accrue from the opera-
tion of this system.
The weather reports from all over
Texas arc telegraphed into San Antonio
every morning. Approaching storms of
rain or hail, cold waves and even cy-
clones can be guarded against by the
farmer and his effects properly protected
against these atmospheric disturbances.
There will be little benefit in the opera-
tion of the new system during the sum-
mer months except in rare intervals. The
winter will determine the value of send-
ing the weather reports throughout the
rural districts, as during that season
atmospheric conditions are more suscep-
tible to sudden and radical changes that
might prove detrimental to the farmer
| and his crops.

HAVE ENOUGH MEN.
De Zavala Rifles Will Effect Perman-
ent Organization Tonight for
State Encampment.
The young men who are to affiliate
themselves with the proposed military
company, the De Zavala. Rifles, will
meet tonight at Red Men's Hall, on
Soledad Street, for the purpose of ef-
fecting permanent organization.
It is thought that approximately fifty
young men will sign the roster at the
first meeting, and prospects are favor-
able for an increase in this number after
organization. As the matter stands,
there are more than enough now to
meet the requirements of the Texas Na-
tional Guard for admission.
John White, who agitated the move-
ment, talked to General Hulen over the
telephone yesterday and learned from
him that forty men is the least number
to whom a company charter will be
granted.
The General also assured Mr. White
that the company could be organized and
equipped in ample time to participate in
the coming encampment at Austin. He
further declared that the equiment will
cot sist of arms, uniforms, and every-
thing necessary to the furnishing of a
military company for service.
At the meeting tonight as much prog-
ress will be made as possible, under the
circumstances. It is probable, however,
that the non-commissioned officers will
not be selected at this meeting, as the
fitness of the men will have to be looked
into before appointment or election to
these positions is made.
It is the intention of the prospective
members to combine the social with the
military feature of the organization, fol-
lowing the custom of the majority of
military companies throughout the State.
EXPECT MORE RAIN.
Storm Area Is Again Moving Toward
San Antonio.
A change has occurred in the area of
high pressure above the Rocky Moun-
tains which gives promise of resulting in
showers in San Antonio within the next
few days.
The storm area several days ago was
headed in this direction but before it had
progressed far enough southeast was
diverted trom its established course by
an unexpected elemental disturbance
and sent off toward the Canadian boun-
dary.
Before passing beyond the territory of
the Middle West, however, a division oc-
curred, and forced by atmospheric power
the seggregated mass is making its way
in this direction. The main body con-
tinues toward the northeast.
It is possible that this storm area will
precipitate rain in this community if it
be not thrown off by unforseen occur-
rences. The condition necessary is the
continuance on its present course. When
it strikes the low area around San An-
tonio and the southwest there is little
doubt that the chill of the high pressure
area will be sufficient to condense the
atmospheric vapor contained by the
former. In that event showers will re-
sult.
The Weather Bureau was more hopeful
of rain yesterday than it has been any
time since the recent showers.
GETS HEARING TOMORROW.
New Warrant Has Been Served on
Mrs. Cheatham.
The habeas corpus suit filed by Mrs.
Parlee Cheatham of Colorado Springs.
Colo., who is held on a warrant from the
Governor, which charges that she is
wanted in Colorado on a charge of em-
bezzlement, will bo tried this morr.lrg
at 10 o'clock in the Thirty-seventh Dis-
trict Court.
The mandate from the Court of Crim-
inal Appeals, ordering Mrs. Cheatham
dismissed, was presented to her in the
jail. At the same time a new warrant
from the Governor was read, so she is
still in Jail. In case rhe is remanded to
jail after the hearing today and an ap-
peal is entered, she will have to remain
in jail until 'October to havo the case
passed on.
AHOY, DRY LAND SAILORS.
Engagement Will Likely Take Placr.
Off the Coast of Rockport
July 13.
Following close on the heels of the re-
port that troops marching to the State
encampment will have to make a 200-mile
detour comes another and an authentic
one that a hostile fleet is sailing directly
on Rockport, and the Admiral in com-
mand of the fleet, stationed there, has
sent a communication to the Ix>rd High
Admiral of all of the Admirals of the
Alamo Yacht Club to hasten his forces
to Rockport to reinforce the fleet there
which will soon be beleagured. The com-
munication received h< re reads thus:
"On board flag ship Grampus off
Rockport, June 28, to Admiral W. H.
Gohlke, commanding. Alamo Yacht Club
and Naval Station, San Antonio:
"Sealed instructions received by dis-
patch boat Minneapolis for Secretary of
Navy at Austin inform inc that the
enemy's fleet at 2::!<) p. m., June 24,
passed between Saranella Bank and
Fariel Rocks in the Caribbean Sea and
was sighted at Swan Island on June 25
when his ships were plainly visible in the
Yucatan channel east of Cape Catorche.
"Department instructions urgently ad-
vise, immediate communication with you
and order that your squadron prepare for
immediate relief of this threatened fleet.
You are. to proceed to Aransas Bay leav-
ing two small vessels off San Antonio
and two at the mouth of the San Pedro
in unity with the land forces and fortifi-
cations. Bring all available 'schooners'
with you. Transports with coal*and pro-
visions such as you cannot bring from
San Antonio, will be available for your
fleet and will be in waiting in Copano
Bav on the east bank and immediately
under the protection of Fort Roosevelt
and also of Fort Bryan. Von will execute
the filling of the bunkers of your vessels
also under the protection «»f a masked
battery. You may secure the mask from
Prince Louis Heuermann for this battery.
"Every effort will b- made to secure
the efficiency and efficacy of the two
naval squadrons, yours and the one here,
fou will receive information as fast as
secured from two fleet dispatch boats
now patrolling the Mexican gulf. It is
expected that the greatest naval battle
of history will be fought in the vicinity
of Rockport on July 13. You will have
your forces in proper condition to partici-
pate successfully therein. On arrival you
will report in person to
"COP.OLINI,
"Admiral in Chief Command."

REPORT SPIRITUAL CONDITION.
German District Conference of Metho-
dist Church in Session.
The second day's session of the Ger-
man district conference, now in session
in the German Methodist Church at
Buena Vista and San Marcos Streets was
opened promptly at 8:30 o'clock Friday
morning by Rev. J. E. Rector. Rev. J.
A. Sehaper of Seguin opened the relig-
ious exercises.
After reading the last session's min-
utes, the discussion of the spiritual state
of the different charges was resumed.
On motion, a committee uns appointed
to prepare a paper for publication in
the conference organ on^lv subject.
Greetings were receive™from the East-
ern district conference (German), now in
session in Peters, Austin County. On
notion, a telegram was sent by the sre-
riitary a< knowledging the receipt of the
letter and sending the greetings of this
conference. V. M. West, a prominent
layman of the city, was introduced to
the conference. The rest of the morning
was spent in the discussion of various
interests of the church.
The business sessions of the conference
an held every morning from 8:30 to 10:45
o'clock. The afternoon is used by the
Epworth Leaguers in rendering various
programs, beginning at 3 o'clock.
To all these meetings everyone is cor-
dially invited.
MAY HAVE TO CONDEMN.
Few Property Holders Ask Govern-
ment Exorbitant Price.
Condemnation proceedings will be insti-
tuted by the Federal Government against
a number of tracts of laud included in
the proposed purchase for the enlarge-
ment of Fort Sam Houston unless the
holders of options reduce the price to a
reasonable figure.
United States District Attorney Charles
A. Boynton and his assistant. Charles C.
Cresson, have been examining the ab-
stracts of titles to the tracts for several
days and rejected a number of options.
The holders will be given three or four
days in which to fix a lower price on
their land before condemnation proceed-
ings are instituted. In the event of such
proceedings the owners will be compelled
to accept the price paid for neighboring
land included in tin Federal purchase.
Mr. Boynton has returned to Waco
leaving the matter in the hands of Mr.
Cresson.
Options on adjoining land not consid-
ered exorbitant were accepted and the
papers forwarded to Washington.
VETERAN IN NEED.
Old Mexican Woman Was Caring for
Disabled Soldier.
A Mexican woman brought to the
notice of the Humane Society yesterday
the enfeebled and serious physical condi-
tion of William Reinhardt, a discharged
Federal soldier, who had been at her
house receiving such attention as she
could give until the society was advised
of the case.
Reinhardt was in the army sixteen
years and was discharged for disability
incurred by a fall in tripping over a
picket rope. The injury developed into a
kind of palsy, rendering the patient unfit
for work.
He had been supported by his mother
since his discharge from the army two
years ago, but, it is stated, she is now in
Europe and at her old home and can con-
tribute to his support no looser*
Reinhardt's case was reported to Col-
onel Brown of Fort Sam Houston, who
will investigate the matter, and if it
comes properly under Federal provisions
the sufferer will be taken care of by the
Government.
COMMITTEE WILL MEET.
Chorus of Sunday School Children for
Fourth of July.
The committee in charge of the Fourth
of July celebration will meet at the office
of Captain Sloan this afternoon at 6
o'clock to make further arrangements
concerning the program for the day.
The parties appointed from the various
churches to have charge of the chorus of
Sunday School children are requested to
report to some member of the executive
committee on the morning of the celebra-
tion.
MAHNCKE FUND INCREASING.
$2500 Will Soon be Raised to Erect
Monument.
The Mahncka Memorial Fund has been
increased to $2107.75. It is expected the
fund wl'l soon be tncreas?d to $2500, when
a suitable monument will be erected in
one of the city parks. A bronze statue
will probably be built on a granite base.
The subscriptions within the last few
days have been from E. J. Lamm SI;
Josephine Hclntz. $2.50; Mrs. R. w. Carr.
$1; Mrs. T. N. Smith, $1; H. T. Phelps,
$2.50; cash, $1.
CLOSE OF THE•
MOST FAVORABLE
FISCAL YEAR
Optimism Is Unbounded and the
People Are Full of Confi-
dence—Outlook Good.
REVIEW OF CONDITIONS
MIKES GOOD SHOWING
NE3W YORK, June 20.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say:
Today closes the most favorable fiscal
year in the Nation's history thus far and
optimism is so general throughout the
commercial world that the next two
months' period promises to carry the
progressive water mark still higher.
With few exceptions the crops are mak-
ing good progress and the new year will
start with more business on the books.
More new scales have been signed by
which wages will be increased and the
pending dispute at textile mills promises
amicable settlement. Railway earnings
in three weeks of June were 10.3 per
cent larger than in 1905.
Foreign commerce at this point lor the
last week shows gains of $3,722,441 in im-
ports and $1,240,145 in exports as com-
pared with last year's. Prices of iron
and steel products have often be<en higher
than now, but it is doubtful whether the
position was ever more wholesome.
Primary markets for textile fabrics
are still held back by uncertainty regard-
ing the stability of prices, especially in
the cotton goods divisions. Exports to
South America and other miscellaneous
shipments only partially offset the utter
lack of contracts from China which is
the least satisfactory feature.
Failures this week were 2">7 in the Unit-
ed States against 249 last year, and 27 in
Canada, compared with 16 a year ago.
GOOD OUTLOOK GENERALLY.
Bradstreets See Nothing in Commer-
cial Situation But Smiles.
NEW YORK. Ji ne 29.—Bradstreets to-
morrow will say:
A week of comparative quiet in whole-
sale trade but of improved retail distribu-
tion favored by warmer weather closes
a half-year period, the like of which for
activity and volume of business done has
probably never before been equaled.
Looking to the future the prospects cer-
tainly suffer little by comparison with
the garnered results of the past six
months.
The crop situation as a whole is good
and will compare favorably with any
similar period in the country's history.
Basing their operations upon these un-
derlying conditions dealers have bought
liberally in anticipation. Sales for next
fall, winter or spring as the case may be,
are all full, and in many lines record
volume. Prices show remarkable strength
considering the increased productive ele-
ments brought into play.
Money Is fairly easy, though differences
of opinion exist as to whether the large
needs of next season can be met without
a pinch in rates.
Industry is active, the iron and steel
lines particularly so.
Railway earnings are heavy. The labor
situation continues to improve. Building
retains remarkably active prices.

MORE SCHOOL RIOTING.
Italian Section of New York Catches
Infection of Fright.
NEW YORK, June 29—Rioting similar
to that which occurred Wednesday about
the public schools of the lower East Side
spread yesterday to the Italian section of
the city adjoining the scene of Wednes-
day's disturbances. Three schools with
several thousand pupils were affected by
yesterday's disturbances and the sessions
were abruptly ended.
The janitor of one of the school build-
ings was roughly handled by the crowd.
At the schools where rioting occurred
Wednesday, few pupils reported yester-
day and the schools remained closed for
the day. Similar riots broke out yester-
day in the. Brownsville section of Brook-
lyn, where parents of pupils charged on
the schools in rage and fear, and it re-
quired large details of police to confine
the oisturbances to the outside of the
buildings.
The trouble, was so pronounced at two
of the schools that the teachers dis-
missed the pupils for the day. The trou-
ble is the outgrowth of the wild rumors
that the children were having their
throats cut by the teachers.
WILSON GETS'LIFE TERM.
Cuero Murder Case Results in Ver-
dict of Guilty.
Special Telegram to The Express.
CUERO, Tex., June 29.—"Guilty of mur-
der in the first degree, and assess his

son murder trial after deliberating all
night.
The case has been on trial since Mon
day, and shortly bet'e^e 5 o'clock yester-
da> afternoon the charge was submitted

The J. R. Richardson case set for to
day, was called this morning, but massed
until this afternoon for the attorneys to
ascertain if certain important witnesses

CLOSE OF REUNION.
Veterans of Green's Brigade Are
Given a Barbecue at Cuero.
Special Telegram to The Express.
CUERO, Tex., June 20.—The Green's
brigade of Confederate Veterans closed
their two days' reunion in Cuero yester-
day. Last night the citizens gave them
a fine farewell barbecue at Germania
Hall, at which full justice was done the
tempting viands. After the spread
speechmaking was in order and Com-
rades Browning, W. L. Davidson and
Grimes spoke, as did Dan Price, Mayor
of Yoakum, and G. J. Schleicher of
Cuero. Good cheer and feelings pre-
vailed and a hearty vote of thanks was
given Cuero people by the veterans.

kawa, who has started a silk worm farm
near El Paso, received the following
letter today from the Secretary of Agri-

ing estimates of approximate cost of
producing cocoons in your locality is es-
pecially interesting and is the first at-
tempt in this direction that we have
seen in the State of Texas
"It has given me pleasure to place
your name on file and in the spring will
send you some silk worm eggs in com-
pliance with your request. Your sample
cocoons are of very fair quality."

Wilkerson has always said he preferred
being hanged to being sent to the peni-
tentiary or the insane asylum, his law-
yers having tried to prove him insane.

corn for home consumption, and together
with the fine lot of fe^-d stuffs saved,
will not have to buy much grain. This
fact, coupled with the beautiful cotton
prospect, makes our business men and
planters feel unsually elated.
