NEGRO TROOPS MOVE.
Urgent Demands of Citizens of Texas
Town Are Finally complied With
By War Department.
Orders were issued at Washington
Monday by the military secretary, Maj.
Oen. E. c. Ainsworth, Tor the transfer
of the colored troops from Fort Brown,
i exas, where there has been serious
trouble between citizens and soldier*,
to Fort Ringgold. Texas, which is i
about 100 miles above Fort Brown,
and is also on the Rio Grande. One
company of the twenty-sixth infantry
is ordered to Fort Brown to take the
place of the colored troops.
The company ordered to Fait Brown
is made up of white men. This shift¬
ing anout of troops was made subse¬
quent to a report from Major C. M.
Penrose on the situation at Fort
Brown and, after an appeal bv Senator
Culberson to President Roosevelt.
In his report, Major Penrose says
he was persuaded that the killing of
one citizen in Brownsville and the
wounding of another were the work
of soldiers, although he has been una
ble, as yet, to discover who the guilty
men are.
On the attitude of the citizens of
Brownsville toward the negro soldleis,
Major Penrose says:
‘That the enlisted men have beer,
subjected to indignities since their ar¬
rival here, there can be no doubt and
this has caused a good deal of feel¬
ing among them. The one case to
which I attribute this outbreak, I will
make the subject of an official report
as soon as John W. Vann, the col¬
lector of customs, returns to the city.”

TEXANS AROUSED
No Let Up in Appeals to Have
Negro Troops Removed,
CULBERSON TAKES HAND
Senator Wires War Department That
Unless Action Is Taken Immedi¬
ately Something Will Be Do¬
ing in His Section.
Following a further appeal from the
officials and citizens of Brownsville,
Texas, United States Senator Charles
A. Culberson has again appealed to
the war department for prompt inves¬
tigation and immediate action in the
situation in the southwest Texas city.
He sent a telegram Sunday to General
Ainfworth of the war department,
urging telegraphic communication
with the commanding officer at the
post, and a removal of the troops
from Fort Brown, deeming this the
only means of bringing peace. Hi3
telegram to the war department is
as follows:
“Dallas, Texas, August 19.—General
F. C. Ainsworth, War Department,
Washington, D. C.—Since the receipt
of your telegram yesterday, officials
and citizens of Brownville have wired
me again to the effect that there is
danger of further riot and bloodshed
unless the negro troops
Maior Penrose then outlines briefly
the case in question. Privates Newton
and Lipscomb w'ere passing along a
walk on August 5, where some women
were standing engaged in conversation
with a man named Tate, who is em¬
ployed in the customs office. The ne¬
gro privates walked single file between
the women and the fence. Tate knock¬
ed Newton down with the butt of a
revolver, and is reported to have said:
“I’ll teach you to get on the sidewalk
when there is a party of ladies on the
walk.”
When Newton rose, Tate is said
to have covered him with the re¬
volver, commanding: ‘“Damn yon,
leave or I will blow your brains out.”
■On August 13, Major Penrose says, a
Mr. Evans and Dr. Combe, mayor of
Brownsville, called on him. Mr. Evans
said Ins wife was seized while enter¬
ing her home by a negro, supposed
to be a soldier, as he wore a
uniform. Mr. Evans, was unable
identify the man, but both she
her husband complained that the
diers gathered near their home,
annoyed them.
CHISHOLM BEFORE COURT.
Paying Teller, Who Stole Money of
Birmingham Bank, Placed On Trial.
The preliminary trial of Alexander
R. Chisholm, who, as paying teller of
the First National bank, of Birming
ham, Ala., defaulted for $100,000,
which he claims to have lost in bucket
shop speculation, and W. L. Sims and
0. M. Hayes, manager and clerk f or
Glheit & Olay, brokers, charged with
aiding and abetting in Chisholm’s de¬
falcation, began Monday before United
States Commissioner Watts. Chis¬
holm said that his transactions in coc
ton, carried on with Gibert & Clay,
were under the name of S. M. vVei>
ster. He had told Manager Sims that
Webster was a wealthy friend resid
ing in Augusta, Ga,
On cross-examination Chisholm told
how, just before he went away on
his vacation recently, lie got into the
reserve box of the bank where $150,000
was kept, and got out enough of the
money to supply the deficit in the reg¬
ular cash. The president of the bank
had left his keys in the reserve box
for a few moments and it was then
that Chisholm extracted the money.
Chisholm pleaded not guilty and
waived examination. He then volun¬
tarily offered to testify against the
brokers and made a full statement
of his dealings with them and the
losses he had sustained, saying that
the money used by him belonged to
to the bank.

According to a statement just is¬
sued at Washington by Thomas P.
Cleaves and Janies C. Courts, chief
clerks, respectively, of the senate and
house committees on appropriations,

ing an increase of $59,404,550.20 over
the sum appropriated the last session
of the fifty-eighth congress for 1906.

priated amounting to $140,245,500, or
