A mqp remarked one day last
week in the bearing of a representa-
tive of the Gazetteer that he was
going to stop the G—d d—d Catho-
lic sheet.” This is the first time
we ever beard of the Gazetteer
being charged with being a religious
paper. This genUeman is mis-
taken, the Gazetteer is strictly
secular; and we can further assure
him that it will ever defend the propo-
sition that a Catholic hat just as
many rights under the constitution
of our country, as a protestant, and
an “unbeliever” as a believer. This
paper has the utmost respect for all
sincere men and women, no matter
what they believe or do not believe,
and nothing but contempt for hypo-
crite. A maq who will damn any-
body because be disagrees with him
on religion or politics, doesn’t pos-
sess the mental capacity to appreci-
ate the value of freedom of speech
and of the press, earned for us by
the blood of our forefathers. He
was born about 200 years too late to
have respectable associates.

HAgKNEY VINDICATED,
THE CHARGE AGAINST THE CHIEF
WAS FALSE.
The History of the Charge. The Council
Sustain the Chief by s Unani-
mous Vote.
For the past two weeks sly and
invidious hints have been going the
rounds impeaching the official in-
tegrity of chief of Police Hackney.
The specific charge was that the
chief had collected fines of prosti-
tutes and had put the money down
in his own pocket. This was a
serious charge and calculated to
jespordize the chief’s candidacy for
re-election. The charge had been
put in the form of a writing and
forwarded to the mayor and council
demanding an investigation. Back
of this statement were Fannie Wil-
liams, Annie Williams and Madam
Lester, proprietors of bawdy
bouses. When the character of
the charge reached the chief’s esrs
be demanded an investigation. The
trial was begun Thursday after-
noon, Mayor Lebrecht presiding,
with Messrs. Tobin and Husted
forming the police committee. The
first witness examined was Fannie
Williams. The testimony of tne
woman is too long and irrevelent to
produce in full, as she was on the
stand for over two hours. The
most salient point was that she
signed the paper presented to her
by Officer James which she did uot
read and which was not explained
to her. It afterwards developed
that the document contained the
alleged charges against the chief of
police. Fantaie’s memory waa bad
and she got tangled up ip a number
of statements. She kept no re-
cords of fines paid to the chief.
There was nothing in the testimony
to cast the least shadow of suspicion
on the perfect honesty of Chief
Hsckney. She acknowledged fre-
quent visits from Ode C. Nichols,
who was assisting Mr. James and
others in fastening the guilt on the
chief. What little sbe did remem-
ber in the matter of fines correspon-
ded with the record of such kept by
the chief. Annie Williams was
called and was another star witness
for the chief. She acknowledged a
call from officer James and Mr.
Nichols aud subscribed to the same
document which the preceding wit-
ness bad signed with this difference,
that she read it. She had made
oath to a statement that she could
not verify, to wit, of the number of
fines 66, which were alleged to have
been paid between the three houses
of prostitution. It seems that after
the statement bad been carried
away it had been subjected to
changes. The Williams woman
said, “Minnie Davis’ name was not
stricken out when I swore to the
statement. There are more names
on jtbe list for January and Febru-
ary than I paid fines for. The
whole statement is not correct. Mr.
Ode Nichols was the first person
who spoke to me of these charges.
The communication to the I mayor
and city council dated March the
13th was presented to me by John
James at my bouse, and be asked
me to sign the paper, (to did notread
it to me ^either did I read it.”
Madam Lester’s testimony was as
follows: j “Elsie Norman came to
my bouse Jan. 28th, 1897, and was
not at my house in December, and
did not pay fines for her to the chief
of police in December or January as
alleged in my affidavit. I solemnly
swear that the statement of fines
paid in the months of January and
February have been changed since
I signed it, I never paid fines for
her in December and January. I
was telephoned to come to (he city
hall. When I arrived there council-
man Ben Coleman, Ode C. Nichols
and Annie Williams were there,
Mabel Watson arrived soon after-
wards. I did not tell Nichols or
Coleman at the city ball that I paid-
fines for the months of December,
January and February. I gave them
the names of seven fines collected
by (be chief for the month of Janu-
ary, also a total of seven fines paid
the chief. The examination at the
city hall by Coleman and Nichols
was about one-balf hour. John
James handed me the document
dated March 13th, addressed to the
city council. He requested me to
retd it and sign. I said that f did
not care about getting into trouble.
He remarked that it was only
communication to the mayor,
don’t know of my own knowledge
what fines have been paid outside
of mine.
The trial of Chief of Police Hack-
ney was resumed Wednesday after-
noon, being conducted by the mayor
and police board.
first that he heard of the charges
against the chief was from Ode C.
Nichols; that he had nothing to do
with starting the ball rolling. The
first time that he saw the affidavit
was in Tone’s office on March 13th.
It was handed to him by Nicholk,
who remarked that the complaints
were complete, but advised that the
names of tax payers be signed to |.
Nichols said that it was the proper
way to proceed. He instructed die
to get signatures to It. Mr. Jamfs
then visited Madams Lester, Annie
and Fannie Williams. The first Id
sign the affidavit containing the
charges was Madam Lester. Mr.
James did not know whether other
papers were attnehed'or not. After
reading the affidavit, Lester said
•“Ail right; I will sign it.” Mr.
James had on his uniform at the
time of his visit. Annie Williams
was the next to sign the document
She did not read it, neither was it
read to her. Mr. James stated that
he did nor read the names of inmates
of houses that were attached to the
affidavit to either Lester or Wil-
liams. He did not know bow many
names were on the list. He was
positive that papera containing
names were attached to the affidavit.
James told Lester and the Williams
woman that the affidavit must be
signed before it was presented to the
council. In answer to a question
from the mayor, James again in
tisted that he had nothing to do with
first prefering the charges; he fur-
ther stated that he did not know
who wrote the list of names. He
stated that he was the tiist to
hand the document to Ben Coleman.
James says he saw Fannie Williams
making an affidavit to some paper
in Tone’s office, the nature of which
he did not know. He met Nichols
and Attorney Thompson at Tone’s
office the ssrne time that the Wil-
liams woman waa there, but the
meeting was not by appointment.
He did not tell Fannie to come to
Tone’s office. James gave a pretty
fair description of the position of
the several desks in Tone’s office,
and where he was standing when
the Williams woman was signing
affidavits. Nichols told James that
he had some papers for the Wil-
liams woman to sign. Prior to this
Jamea had met Nichols at the depot;
the question of the charges was
not discussed. A short time after
James met Nichols at Tone’s office.
James could not recollect whether
he met Nichols before he got the
signatures ot the women. He sees
the affidavit for the first time March
*{877. He saw the papers with
narires and lists of fines at Tone’s
office, looked over it, but did not
read it. It was typewritten, also in
pencil writing. Did not know wbo
made the list of names with pencil.
Didn’t know that the document had
been tampered with or that any
names had been stricken out.
Nichols handed James the docu-
ments. He did not know the hand-
writing of Nichols. He stated that
he had known Nichols about five
years, but did not know what busi-
ness he followed, not even the
newspaper business. James stated
that while at Tone’s office he was on
watch. He was there perhaps for
thirty minutes. He met Council-
msn Ben Coleman after leaving
Tone’s office; he told Ben that the
charges to be preferred aganst
Hackney were about ready. Mr.
Coleman said that they ought to
be presented to the council, so that
a committee could be appointed to
investigate the charges. James fur-
ther stated that at the time when
Fannie Williams signed the affidavit
the list of fines tor December and
February were attached, but not in
the same shape that it was now.
It was in bandwriting and not type-
writing, written with a pencil. Ode
Nichols handed James the written
list at Tone’s office, and never saw
the typewritten affidavit until the
13th. He looked at it and noticed
pencil marks. The mayor then
questioned James very closely as to
whether he was on or off duty at the
time the charges were being pre-
pared against the chief. His object
was to prove tbst James, while on
duty, was giving his attention to the
Hackney matter
Jennie Britton stated that John
James did not come to Madam Les-
ter’s on Saturday evening and ask
her if Mrs. Lester- was at home;
that if he came there at all on Satur-
day evening she has no recollection of
it. Sbe states positively it is not a
fact that he asked her for Mrs. Les-
ter and that she told him Mrs. Les-
ter had gone to town. She states,
positively she was asleep between
6* and 7 p. m. Saturday evening,
March 13th.

them to sign, which they did. She
states positively that the three papers
now attached to paper bearing her
signature was not attached when she
signed it, nor was it so attached
when she swore to it. She says
John James came to her house on
the evening of the 9th and asked her
for a list of fines paid by her to Mr.
Hackney for the months of Decem-
ber, ’96, and January aud February,
’97! that she gave him the names as
requested, as she - understood the
mayor was having this done.
Fanniy Williams, on redirect ex-
amination, said she was instructed
to go by the back way to Tone’s
office. John James and Nichols
were standing on the back porch
waiting for her. She found the
gate locked. Nichols went into the
office to get the key, returning, told
her she would have to go through
the Dago’s fruit stand, as he could
not get the key. States further the
signed and swore to the paper in
the presence ot Janies and Nichols.
She states positively that the papers
have been Changed since she sighed
them ; that John James represented
to her that it was for the mayor he
was doing this work, and for that
reason the thought it was all right.
The mayor, Mr. Lebrecht, it es-
pecially to be commended for the
promptness which he has displayed
in this investigation. The citizens
of Denison may never know how
earnestly and fairly he conducted
himself through this long, tedious
and unpleasant task of investigating
very grave charges against a man
whom the people have honored and
trusted so long and so faithfully per-
formed the duties of his responsible
office. Mr. Lebrecht has shown in
this investigation his faithful protec-
tion to his subordinate* when
wrongfully accused.
OFFICIAL XXHOVKRATION.
At a special meeting of the city
council Wednesday night the recent
charges against Chief of Police
Hackney was the order of business.
By a unanimous vote the chief was
exhonorated. The result of the in-
vestigation wa* a complete vindica-
tion of the chief. The trial, which
consumed a portion of the week,
was remarkable and sensational,
and should have been listened to by
every citixen of Deniaon; nothing
like it has been heard before; it waa
decidedly recherche. In every in-
stance Chief Hackney came off with
flying colors. Mayor Lebrecht, the
presiding officer, went down to “bed
rock” in the investigation. It waa
thorough and impartial.

FITZSIMMONS THE CHAMPION.
The great event of the year, the
fight for the world’s ciixmpioDship
at Carson, Nev., haa come and
gone, and the Australian wears the
belt. Fourteen rounds were fought.
The first eight rounds Corbett ap
peared to have the best of it, but he
has not the endurance of Fitzsim
morn, who got in a blow on the
fourteenth round that settled the
contest.
The following dispatch tells the
story:
BLOW THAT KNOCKED CORBETT OUT.
The blow that did the business
was a left hand blow under the beart-
Jim staggered and Fitz struck him
right on the jaw. Jim sank to his
knees, clinging to the ropea. His
face waa contorted with pain and
he could not breathe. He tried
in vain to rise, but each time sank
back in agony with his hands over
his heart.
Slowly the fatal seconds were
counted, and when Siler raised his
band at the tenth second a roar went
up from the crowd. Bob stood
ovelooking bis fallen rival, waiting
to administer the finishing blow if
Jim got up, but bis caution was un-
necessary. Jim’a seconds rushed
into the ring and hustled him to bis
corner. Corbett revived, and when
he learned that he had lost the fight
he became frantic. He broke away
from his seconds and rushed about
bunting for Fits and striking blindly
right and left.
It was a pitiful exhibition of im-
potent rage. His seconds tried in
vain to control him, but he struck
viciously at them as well as others.
Finally they grabbed him by the
arms and carried him by force from
the ring.
This lasted at least five minutes,
and the crowd broke into cheering.
They were thrown out by the sher-
iffs, but they came too fast and the
ring waa jammed.
All this time Fits sat quietly in
bit corner availing the decieion of
the referee. When Siler’s voice
could be heard above the noise
awarding Fitz the fight, Julian
grabbed his red headed brother in-
law about the neck, and together
they danced up and down in •'
frantic manner. They were crazy
with joy. t
Mrs. Fitzsimmons in her box,
close to the ring, laughed and cried
alternately, and tried in vain to get
through the crowd to embrace her
husband.
After some few minutes Fitz was
escorted through the crowd to the
dressing room, and hia wife fol-
lowed.
The end of the fight came with
s'artling suddenness. The four-
teenth round was well in progress,
when Corbett, who had assumed the
tggreuive, had forced Fitz into the
northwest corner of the ring. He
was jobbing Bob’s bloody face,
when the latter’s left arm shot out
and his fist caught Corbett right
under the heart and be staggered.
Then came a jolt on the jaw that
sent him down. It was just one
minute past 1 when the deciding
blow was struck.
Corbett admits that he was fairly
defeated, but says he was too care-
less, and is still confident that he
can whip bis adversary.
Those who want to read all the
details of the fight, will find it in the
Dallas New* of Msrch 18.
