Oil Fight Moves Center on Waters Pierces receivership
In Austin Texas December 18 the Supreme Court will hear the state’s motion to place State Receiver Robert Meihardt in charge of the Waters Pierce Oil Company’s physical property. The Waters Pierce Oil Company challenges the court’s jurisdiction and the validity of the law authorizing receivership, arguing the motion rests on insufficient facts and that no valid law supports the state’s action. The company’s answer, filed by its counsel, contends the state lacks authority to seize receivership and cites the need for a federal court ruling by Judge Brygut on related matters.

Mexican gang accused in brutal San Antonio hold up
Four Mexicans were arrested by Constable Stevens and deputies after confessions detailing a Sunday night robbery spree. They admitted to knocking M. J. Beard unconscious, robbing him of seven dollars, and placing his body on railroad tracks. They also claimed to assault Charles Eichmann and drag his body before laying him on the tracks. Eichmann survived. Bonds set at sixteen thousand dollars for Trevino and Diaz, ten thousand for the others. The case likely ties to a longer pattern of highway robbery in the area.
