LIQUOR DEALERS
SEEK PEACE AFTER
LONG LITIGATION
Brewery Interests and Saloon
Men Seemingly Wish to Avoid
Court Proceedings.
OIMBEL HABEAS CORPUS
IS LP THIS MORNING
From all appearancea there haa nc-
curred n split between the brewery in-
terefits and some saloon men of San An-
tonio with referonoe to tho enforcement
of the Buskin-McGregor law regulating
liquor truffle. It is merely a difference
of opinion that has arisen In connection
with the resolute position taken by Au-
gust Glmbel, treasurer of the Retail
Liquor and Malt Dealers Association, in
now seeking to establish that the statuln
involved Is unconstitutional. This la
based on an alleged discrimination in fa-
vor of the wine grower In not taxing the
wine he manufactures.
The Glmbel habeas corpus hearing is
to be held before County Judge Phil
Shook at 10 o'clock this morning. II. 11.
Ward, Who has represented the breweries
and Hetail Liquor and Malt Dealers As-
sociation heretofore in an attack on the
Haskin-McGregor law, will this morning
argue for the State of Texas, and
against Glmbel. This mere shifting is
regarded as very significant.
Are Anxious to Have Peace.
It is believed that the breweries of
San Antonio and the greater number of
organized saloon men are tiled ot the
prolonged contest that has held forth in
this city in litigation against raloon men
for alleged Sunday violations, the main-
tenance of screens and other obstructing
paraphernalia in the fronts ui resort
music in barrooms, pool and billiard

Mr. Ward represented the saloon men
in the famous test case in which Steve
Vaccareiza, a retail liquor and malt
denier, sought to prove the force of the
statute with reference to the validity of
old and unexpired licenses. In this fight
the breweries and saloon men united to
tight the Raskin-McGregor law, pihi
every effort was made to establish that
the law is unjust in requiring new li-
censes to bo taken out while licenses
taken out under the old liquor law and
unexpired, were held. Vaccarezza's case
was lost in the Court of Criminal Ap-
peals. %
Since that time, and but two weeks
ago. iho Rrtail Liquor and Malt Healers
Association adopted a resolution bi in
overwhelming vote to uphold tho Raskin-
McGregor law in its entirety, which as
a matter of course, includes Sunday
closing. A week ago the local brewery
officials, foreign brewery agents and
other representatives of liquor and mall
Interests, adopted a. subsequent resolu-
tion to uphold the law.
In view of these apparently resolute
steps it iff generally believed, ns well as
stoutly maintained by officials of tho
breweries and saloon men, that the law
will henceforth be observed to t^u. lot-
tor. In addition to this, it was authori-
tatively ascertained yesterday that the
breweries and local association of saloon
men »s a whole, discountenance the ac-
tion that is being taken by Mr. Gimbel.
Developments in this habeas « orpus
case are becoming intensely interesting
to tho saloon men of the city, and it is
probable that the proceedings in the
County Court this morning will be wit-
nessed by many citizens.
AMUSEMENTS.
ANNOUNCEMENTS.
"Arizona,"
If Augustus Thomas is given time he
is likely to give to every State in tbe
T'nion the dignity of personal portraiture
of its costumes and people in the stac-
told story. Following up his earlier suc-
cess "Alabama," which was announced
at the time as "the greatest American
play," came "In Missouri," that -xce!--
lent comedy drama In which Nat Good-
win added so conspicuously to his ar-
tistic laurels. "Arizona" is said to bo
better from an artistic standpoint than
either of his previous efforts, and the
title indicates the locale and fluggests
the people and the subject matter < f the
story. "Arizona" Is not a melodrama,
it has shown that amidst the crude sur-
roundings of frontier army posts and cat-
tle ranges, human hearts and human
emotions are as tender, as loyal, as re-
sponsive as they are to be found in
more favored localities. The plav, as
will he remembered, introduces I'ncle
Sam's cavalrymen, the picturesque vn-
queros of the Western ranges and, of
course, some delightful types of Far
West womanhood. The author has su-
pervised the staging, himself, of the play,
and In the incidental features of the
work, he has had the valuable expert as-
sistance of Frederick Remington, the in-
comparable pictorial delineator of West-
ern scenes and characters.
"Arizona." will be presented at the
Grand today matinee and tonight.
Thurston Hail as Ben-hur.
Art and invention have joined hands in
making "Ben-Hur" an appealing stage
spectacle. The thrilling Interest of the
story is intensified by the wonderful me-
chanical contrivances which make possi-
ble the presentation of such striking In-
cidents as the chariot race at the Cir-
cus of Antioch with Its mettlesome steeds
divided into quadruple teams urged on
by the contestants, tlie sinking of the
Roman Galley and the rescue, the ap-
pearance of the Star of Rothlehem. the
Vision of the Vale of Hlnnom and the
Miracle of the Mount of Olives. wh*re
the presence of the Saviour is Indicated
by the divine light irradiating from Ills
presence.
The present, staging of "Ren-Hur" Is
of audi stupendous proportions as to
make It the biggest production of a dra-
matic spectacl> ever mado. Its produc-
ers, Messrs. K'aw & Krlanger, guided
by past experiences, have taken advan-
tage of ail tho vast resources at their
(ommojid, and, as now arranged, this
Biblical romance appeals not only be-
cause of tho ftrength of Its narrative,
but as a magnificent and picturesque
pageant. Edgar Stillman Kelley's bril-
liant musical scene, which so heightens
the dignity and solemnity of the drama-
tization end was one of the most potent
factors in Its success, Is made a domi-
nant feature of the n« w production. A
chorus of 12f» voices will be heard in tho
vocal numbers and an augmented orches-
tra will render the instrumental score.
Altogether more than WW persons will
take part In the production.

COMMITTEES OF WOMEN.
They Will Be Asked to Help in Battle

The Inclemency of the weather pre-
vented many women from attending the
meeting at the Monger Hotel yesterday

nival. However, Chairman Clarence J.
Thomas, of the special committee, has
received much encouragement from San

of wonum appointed nv that time and

mittee. has called the subcommittees to
meet with him Thursday evening at tho
International Club.
It is believed that Gen. Albert L. Meyer,
in command of the Department of Texas,
will accept the position of grand marshal
for the Rattle of Flowers.
