J. Oiisley, the negro -who has been con

upon the charge- of murdering George
Ball, of this city the night of July 16,
1890, was released yesterday for want of
evidence to convict. Subsequently he
was arrested on' complaint of TJrider
Sheriff Be van. 'Today he confessed his
crime in the presence of Sheriff. Saul,
Under-sheriff Bevan and the court re
porter who took the confession down in
shorthand. ' He implicates Maddox and
George Collins, who was shot and killed
in Stockton some six weeks ago. The
confession was obtained from Ousley by
the use of two miniature photographs of
sisters of Ball, which were in a locket
on the chain that was stolen, and which
Ball wore when he was killed. The
blows which ended Ball's existence were
struck by Maddox and Collins, who set
the fire going" around his body. ' Onsley
was stationed on the outside as a look
out. : He 'stated that he felt much' re
lieved after be had confessed the crime.

Kain at Last.
San Antonio Tex., Aug. 2. The ter
rible drouth prevailing in Southwest
Texas ' for nine weeks was broken last
night by a storm' followed by a drench
ing rain. Only two showers had fallen
for nine weeks in a vast, area south of
San Antonio "for 200 miles arid west for
400' miles'.' Cotton balls begun to drop
from their stems, the corn crop was
ruined, and the cattle ranges had" been
parched. ' Appalling destitution has pre
vailed for two weeks past along the Rio
Grande from Presidio to Cameron county.
In Hidalgo arid Starr counties many cat
tle died from want of grass. The coun
try is now destitute on account of three
annual drouths and . the lawlessness of

More Jews for America.
London, Aug! 2. The Russian Jews
who left Hamburg last week took pas

land them 11 at one place; but to divide
them up between the leading American
ports, so that they -may not attract too
much attention and opposition.--America
is the objective point of nearly all
the Russian Jews. ?

; THE EX'AMl'MENT AT I1ETROIT.
, Th Colored People Want their Ria;ht
as Citizens in the . A. K.
j Detroit, Aug. 4.-; There is a serious
dispute which threatens serenity in the
silver encampment of the G. A. R. It
is a "Color question." Col. Hedges com
mander department of. Louisiana and
Mississippi said today: "Unless things
straighten out durinir this encamp
ment, there won't be a white member of
the G. A. R', south of the Ohio on tbe
Potomac a year hence.' They are out
numbering us in posts, thus' putting us
directly under them. Nowwe want to
rule ourselves and have the colored- peo '
pie go by themselves." Col. Jag. Lewis
(colored) administrator of police and ad-'
miniHtralor of the public works of New
Orleans is champion on the colored side.
When asked what the trouble in Louis
iana was he said : "We have nine postB
with a membership of 'over 1,000, yet we
are not recognized by. the commander of
our department. WTe get no representa
tion in the convention, and are ordered
to ' report to ' the conimander-in-chief.
The department commander thinks w
want social recognition. I claim the
order not a social one, but a historic and
fraternal one."
Doings of the G. A. K.
Detroit, Aug. 4. It has been the de
sire of all the prominent leaders of the
organization that the 25th encampment
should be th; riiof-'t successful in the his
tory of the G. A. R. ami the parade the
most magnificent ever known. Certain
it is (but the' multitude which assem
bled in Detroit today are larger than the
city ever greeted before, and in magnifi
cence of pageantry and beauty of decora
tions, today's parade is without prece
dent. Four magnificent arches ereeted
by the citizens in different parts of the
city marked the line of march.
