An Interesting Session.
The November term of the criminal dis-
trict court, being the first term after the
summer vacation, promises to be unusually
interesting with a full docket of crimes and
mitcleHK-anors, running through the entire
criminal category. Several mnrdor cases
nte also on the docket, notably the Simins-
Odeii case and the case of Wm. Warner
(colored) charged with the murder of a Ut
jle bov. Krnest Hrandes, last July. The
Ben Ketgans murder case, on change of
venue from Houston, will also be an inter-
esting trial. __________
A Groundless Kumor.
The rumored serious illness in New York
of Htnry ttOEenberg, the banker, which was
current on the streets Wednesday evening
and yesterday morning, occasioned anxiety
among his friends in the city. The officers
of his bank, who are in daily communica-
tion with him by wire, were able to correct
the report, promptly as friends called to
make inquiry. How or whera the rum n-
originated it has not yet been possible to
ascertain, but the fact is Mr. Rosenberg
has boi been ill at b.11, and a telegram re-
ceived fioui him late yesterday evening ro-
pnrts himself and family as at the Metro
politan hotel, New York, in excellent health
tii;d preparing to return south next week.
Death ci Peter Gengler.
Another old landmark has passed away
in'the death of Mr. Voter aengler, which
occurred at Boerne, Tex, on Tuesday.
The remains were expected to arrive
here last night for interment. Mr,
fiengler bad been in bad health for
come time patt, and left Ualveston but
a few weeks ngo to seek improvement from
climatic changes. It w«3 thought then by
hlE friends that the change was made too
lale in order io bring about the desired re-
sult. He wan accompanisd on his last trip
by his wife and Eon, Peter Gengler,
Jr . who were with him at the time of his
death, which was not unexpected. Tne de-
ceased was one of the pioneers of Galves-
ton, n-nklof? among her oldest citizens. B/
his thrift and industry, and honesty and in-
tegrity of character, he prospered with the
general prosperity of the city, and always
conducted a profitable business. H® leaves
a widow and four eons, all of the boys
grown except.Joseph. His sons will continue
the business their father so successfully in-
augurated, now located on Market street,
near Twentieth. Immediately upon the re-
ceipt of the new3 of his father's death Mr.
Mati Gengler left for Boerne, and was ex-
peeled io return by the late train last night
with the remains. The funeral has baen
arranged to take place to day from the fam-
ily residence, coraer of Fifteenth and Mar-
ket. Mrs. Stoik, a sister of Mr?. Gengler,
arrived jetlerday from New Orleans to bs
piettnt iit the obseonies.
The Tremont To Wight
Mr. John F. Ward will appear at the Tre
mont opera house this evening, presenting
for the first lime in Galveston the five-act
comedy entitled The Doctor. Mr. Ward is
an eccentric comedian of the John T. Ray-
mond school, and in personal appearance
and manner is said to bear a resomblance
to tint lamented actor. His stage career
daies back over a period of twenty years,
durirg which time he has been identified
with (one of the best stock companies and
combinations in the country. Mr. Ward's
cr.tnedy, The Doctor, Is an adaptation from
the German of L'Arronge's Dr. Klaus, and
was formerly played with great
success in Now York, Boston and
Pciladelpbia, in which cities it ran for
sever til consecutive weeks. Higgins, the
doctor's man, is tlio leading comedy role,
which character Mr. Ward impersonates.
The Doctor is one of the many German
adaptations said to possess the same ele-
ments of success which made so popular
such plsys as the Private Secretary, Big
Bonat zu, ' 7-iiO-K," and The Professor, all
of which are from the German, and haye
an iniilereiirrctit of similarity. The theme
of the play is hased upon the lives aud in-
cie'ents of a bin IT physician, bU droll man-
yervot t, a society loving widower, ttleajtire-
seekirg daughters, find a couple of amusing
lovers. It is a piece said to abound In lu-
dlcroDS situations atd absurd climaxes, in-
terspersed here and there with catchv
tcngF, aruorg which are the popular topical
scrgs entitled I'm Berry It liver Occurred

the
TIME FOR TBAMPS.
Predicted Arrival of the Gentlemen of the Bo»d
and a Proposed Remedy.
"Tba time has almost come for the gen
tlemen of the road to make their appear-
ance in Galveston," said a police officer to
a News reporter yesterday. "They are
very systematic in the prosecution of their
business, and at present are working their
way south, and will be here on time for the
'holidays,'as they are called. It appears
singular, doesn't it, to see them spring Into
existence suddenly like mushrooms:* But
when they arrive they'll be given a rous-
ing reception, never fear, and the police
make very good reception committees.
When they overstock the market the police
will be detailed to diminish the surplus,
and to this end pretty little squads of
tramps will be formed and gallantly con-
ducted to the bridge by a blue coated cav-
alryman, armed cap-a-pie. This method of
ridding the city of these obnoxious way
farers was employed to considerable ad-
vantage last winter, and it proved snob an
efficacious remedy that it is thought advisa-
ble to adopt the same course this year.
They may be looked for any time after
Thanksgiving day, and will give the police
seme employment."

tion company's barge Gibbs, alongside tha
wharf of the Southern Pacific company.
A board of survey was held yesterday by
a tew cotton brokers and buyers upon the

where she has been for some time.
The Maliory line steamer Colorado^ ar

her master, reports that very rough seas
and hlgli winds were encountered oSE cape
Hatteras, and the vessel was made to labor
pretty heavily. The captain had the fore-
topmast takan down to save it, hence when
the steamer arrived in port yesterday she
bore the appearance of having lost this
part of her rig. The weather was mod-
erately fair before and after passing cape
Hatteras.
Quite a number of lumber schooners ar-
rived in the harbor yesterday from Lake
Charles, Calcasieu and other lumber dis-
tricts and discharged their cargoes upon
the levee in the slip at Labadle's wharr.
Tte British bark Hermome, lying at Lab-
adie's wharf, has recently been thoroughly
overhauled. Her hull has received a new
ccat of paint, and her deck and upper
works have also been painted in colors that
blend very harmoniously. She is at pres-
ent the neatest and sauciest looking craft
at that dock.
Several schooners loaded with bricks
from Cedar bayou have arrived within the
past two or three days, and have dis-
charged their cargoes at's Labadle wharf
slip and Brick wharf slip.
the sugar crop.
A News reporter was informed yester-
day that the tug Frank G. Fowler had
steamed over to Sabine last Wednesday for
the purpose of towing a number ofbarge3
to Morgt n City, where they will receive a
part of the sugar crop of Louisiana and
then be towed to Galveston, where it will
be taken charee of by those merchants
representing the new enterprise. The
warehouse which was lately started at Cen-
tral wharf levee to hold this sugar iorop
is beginning to assume proportions, and
besides lullilllng its functions as a store-
house, will be a decided improvement to
that locality when finished. The ground
beneath and around it is bilng covered
with reef shells.
hkst time on reooro.
Captain G. W. Maaon, master of the Mor-
gan line steamer New York, which arrived
from New York city, makes the folio *iag
report of th© trip:
"Left New York at (.05 p.m. Thursday,
October 20. Had a strong southest gain aud
stormy weather during the firsc twelve
hours on'.l Alter this we had fiue weather
wi:h northwest to southeast wind to Japutn.
Then northeast wind during the remainder
of passage. Arrived off the bar at 2 p. m.
on October 27 and arrived at dock at 11 p. m.
On October 25, at 0 15 n. m. passed tha
Maliory line steamer San Marcos off Tor-
tugas, thirty miles eas-southeast. At 8 l.>
e. m., same date, passed the Morgan ltne
siiip Moig'in City off Tortugas, liftj-hvfl
miles east-southeast."
This is the best time ever made by one of
the Morgan ships to Galveston from New
York.
a reported rough experience.
•According to reports received from
Mobile, Captain Wm. Lloyd, who left Gal-
veston for that city some few days ago in
the interest of the sugar crop enterprise,
had a very rough experience. From what
in for rnation could be gathered yesterday
by a News reporter, it appears that Cap-
tain Lloyd's intention was to sail in the tag
Cooper from Mobile to Morgan City add
tow down some sugar laden bargos to Gal-
veston from that point. He took passage
on ihe tug, which was beset, however, by a
furious gale, compelling her to pat back
into Mobile harbor. The tug wa3 tossed
ard rolled about in a very rough manner,
and it was not without somo difficulty that
tie crew retained their footing upon the
deck. The engineer of the tug Coopar is
jeported as having been washedovorbjard,
but was fortunately saved from a gravi) la
the deep by an almost miraculous froRk.
Accordu gto the report, the en^lueer was
first washed from tbe deck by a tremandoua
Eea, and then washed up to th? gnawale
again by another sea, enabling him to leap
aboard. The Mobile Register contained
quite a lengthy account of the disaster on
October 2". Nothing further has beeu re-
ceived concerning Captain Lloyd, though it
is presumed he escaped without any seri-
ous mishap.
a seaman's fatk.
A News reporter, while onboard ths Brit-
ish steamship Finland at New wharf yester-
day. learned that the vessel lost a seaman
overboard after having left Cardiff, Wales,
twelve days, being on the way to Galveston
at the time. The Finland left Cardiff on
September 10, with moderately fair weather.
On Wednesday, September 28, while the
Wind was blowing freshly fn>m the north-
west, at !'."0 a. m , Jack Hester, ono of the
seamen, fell overboard while spreading the
bridge awning. The vessel was immediate
ly stopped, liie buoys were hurled over into
tt© water, and a boat was lowered as soon
as possible. The boat dodged about in the
water until 11 o'clock. Toe seaman's hat
was picked up, together with the life baoys,
erd the boat returned to the vessel unable
to discover any trace of the seaman. This
happened in iatitndo 20 24' north, latitude
•J7 -14' west. The Finland arrived in Gal-
veston on October 12, and dretv up to tue
docks on October 10. She passed through
some verv squally weath6ron the way over,
IhouEb the voyage oa the whole was a pros-
perous one, with the exception o? the sad
late of the senman, who was 35 years of age
and an Englishman.

Dallas
The cominercial, manufac-
turing and educational City of
Texas and the southwest, has
40,000 inhabitants and pos-
sesses all the factors of growth
tbat are calculated to develop
metropolitan proportions.
It is situated in the heart of
the richest agricultural region
in America, and favored asiti»
by a certainty of the seasons,
produces a cereal yield equal
to that of Illinois, and cotton
equal to that of the Mississippi
valley.
It being the emporium of
trade for this production, its
growth, within a few years,
has been phenomenal, outstrip-
ping that of Kansas City at a
like stage, and attesting the
force of Mr. Jay Gould's re-
marks, "'Dallas has all the nat-
ural advantages of Kansas
City, a more equable climate,
and in addition has cotton,
which Kansas City has not."
For the distribution of its
growing trade, it has eleven
railroads, including all the
trunk lines in Texas. Every
new railroad built in the state,
connecting with these trunk
lines, will afford increased fa-
cilities for the distribution of
its commerce and products.
Within the next twelve months
three additional railroads will
be built from Dallas. Boston
has its Brookline, New York
its Brooklyn, Cincinnati its
Walnut Hills and Clifton,
Kansas City its Wyandotte,
and Dallas
