Houston, Texas. Disappointed, Texans may be over the figures giv en out by the census bureau which places this state fifth m population in the list of states, but not discouraged. That there is a sad failure to properly count the populace of the larger counties is generally accepted as true throughout the state but in typical western style, the business Interests are moving ahead with plans for the future unshaken by the figures sent out from Washington. That the homeseekers' movement this year is surpassing all records Is demonstrated by the report of the railroads. Last Thursday was "Homeseeker Day" and the army of Invaders from the north and east sweep into Texas In companies, batal lions, regiments and brigades. Hous ton, the state's railroad center, is the clearing house for the tourist move ment and fully five thousand excur sionists passed throungh the city In two days. This is but the beginning for after Christmas the tide of trav el is expected to double and treble. Every railroad entering Houston is preparing for the grand rush. The millions expended in the development of southwest Texas are yielding div idends. Thursday night and Friday morning forty-two carloads of home seekers traveled toward Brownsville by ne line. Last year, 18,974 home seekers' tickets were honored by that road, alone, and in the last five years 62,000 people have found homes in this land of promise. Reports issued by the state rail road commission for the year end ing June ."0, 1910, show that out or the net operating income for the year, Texas railroads paid interest am ounting to J14.225.000 and dividends amounting to $2,191,000 and have spent $1,600,000 In additions and im provements. Besides this the com panies have remaining from operat ing income nearly a million dollars, which la more than 6 per cent of the taxable values of the roads for the year. One of the best indices to business are post office and telegraph receipts. Houston's post office shows more than 50 per cent increase over last year and at a meeting of the mana gers of the Western Union Telegraph company it was shown that in volume of business by that concern based on population, Houston stands first in Texas and third in an the United States. After hia tour of the south east a few days ago, B. F. Yoakum, the railroad magnate, declared there was no business depression in this section and he knew because he had seen for himself. In the face of this business activity and influx of new citizens, great things are predicted for the census reports ten years hence. 1 EMPTY VICTORY APTEK TWO YEARS the railroads can be forced to refund the difference between the rates as fixed by the commission and the rates actually charged for hauling the freight. The obtaining of reparation, j however, is a long and troublesome ; process. The claimant is required to file with the commission a detailed j statement of every item of overcharge, , and in case of opposition by the rail- ; roads, must defend his claim before the commission. All of this takes time and expense and only a big claim will justify It. NOTES AND NEWS PUTTING BRASS COATING OX COPPER WIRE I n Iffly j !

Two years ago the Interstate Com merce commission lowered the rate on five classes of freight from the At lantic seaboard to cities situated on tiie Missouri river from three to nine cents a hundred pounds. Railroads appealed to the courts to prevent the reduced rates from being enforced. A few days ago the supreme court of the United States sustained the enforcement of the low rates on the ground that they were legal and reas onable. H looked like a big victory for the Missouri river people but the fact de veloped that the time limit It the re duced rates expired two days before the court announced its decision. The Interstate Commerce commis sion is authorized to fix rates for no longer than two years. In the Mis souri river ease the entire period waa devoted to fighting in the courts. So the people Interested, to get relief, must file a new complaint. If the com mission should order a reduction the railroads will find that the courta are Ktlll open. The supreme court decision uphold ing the commission's order of 1908, however, will bring some relief to the payem of freight charges. Offici als of the. comrnisson said today that This consulate is In receipt of an inquiry from an American manufac turing concern asking for informa tion in regard to the process of put ting brass coating on copper wire, which is afterwards drawn and flat tened into what is known as "gold lahn" a material used in the manu facture of gilt braids, ornaments, trimmings, etc. Your consul has not the special knowledge that would enable him to give a technical description of this process. Generally stated, It consists In heating raw zinc in cast-Iron re torts until it is reduced to a heavy zinc vapor. The copper rod or wire is then introduced into the retort and, heated to a temperature of 900 to 1, 020 degrees C. on the outer parts of the copper. At this temperature the zinc vapor combines with the heated copper, producing the desired result. The copper is allowed to remain In the retort until the brass coating at tains the desired thickness. The desired luster- is then produced by burnishing and polishing during or after the drawing process. The brass coating follows the wire dur ing the drawing process, which Is the same aa that employed for the ordi nary drawn wire. The brass coating must be made thicker or thinner In accordance with the degree of fine ness to which the wire Is to be drawn. From Consul General Nicholas Ifft, Xuremberg, Germany.

In the circuit court here a Jury returned a verdict of mur der in the first degree against John Ford and his wife, Lelia Ford, tried for the killing of William Nicholas, near this place, on September 30th. Judge Cowling sentenced both to be hanged on January 20th. The Fords were tenants of Nichols, who was a former member of tho Arkansas leg islature. Tho tragedy resulted from Nichols driving across a pea patch belonging to the Fords to get to a hay barn which he had reserved. The testimony showed that Nichols was stabbed to death with a knife by Ford and that Mrs. Ford aided him In the crime.
