The State. "
Washington, July 29.?A sensation
In official cir les was caused here to- '
v night when it was learned that Third
Assistant Postmaster General 'Daniel ;
"C. Roper had resigned and would go
to 'Xew York to take charge of the
organization work for the Democratic .
campaigs committee. Mr. Roper is a
South. Carolinian and lias made, one
of the best officials -his office has ever c
JtLad. I
It is understood that after the c?m- i
pafign is over Mr. Roper will be offer- *
ed a place" on the tariff commission as t
chief clerk to the ways and means c
committee under I ormer Chairman
Underwood. Mr. Roper made a reputation
as an expert on the tiriff. x* r
is practically settled that he will be j c
named a member of the tariff com - j ^
mission soon after the present cam- j \
paign is ended. j 3
One of the main duties of the third i
...... . . !
assistant is to aanaie tne appointment |
of postmasters. Postmasters from J r
the presidential class down to th'i j t
fourth class offices are appointed i
mainly upon the say so of the third
assistant and Mr. Roper has handled (
this delicate situation with, entire j
satisfaction. i
Mr. Roper's resignation is effective i
at the close of business Monday. t
No suggestion as to bis successor
has been made up to this time. It is
-possible that none will be made f?r i
some time.

camp of the First Illinois cavalry ani !
supposed Mexican bandits who ap- i
parently were attempting to raid I
Pickett lines of cavalry horses. So j
far as is known there were no casual- !

took place two and one-half miles!
north, of Brownsville.
TT1P first tr/vihlo of 10 A.Z
a. m., when a detachment of H troop,
Illinois regiment, on the north of the
camp discovered four moving eastward.
Two patrols sent out to investigate
declared they saw a man leading
four horses. Challenged by the
guards, they asserted, 'he answered
with two volleys from a shotgun and
disappeared in the underbrush as the
guards returned the shots. Two or
three other prowlers were then seen
and as the guard advanced in skirmish
line they fled abandoning the
horses.
Anotner patrol was sent out to cut
off the escape of the supposed bandits
from the river and they also were
fired on. They returned the fire frut
