Since the adjournment of the regular session of the Legislature the matter of the sunken treasure, lying in some 30 feet of water not far off the Texas shoreline, has been characterized largely by a lawsuit that was filed in Corpus Christi to question the extent of Sadler's authority in the matter. The commissioner is operating in a void in Texas law; the state has no antiquities code providing for recovery of lost treasure, or of anything of archeological or historical value. Since the treasure rests on Texas' tide- lands (extending from the shoreline 10.35 miles into the gulf) Sadler contends he is custodian of the booty, since state law names the land office to regulate the tidelands for the benefit of the Permanent Free School Fund, which helps support public education in the state.

  • Curtains for Jim Crow: Law, Race, and the Texas Railroads
    q osborn 10/8/04 1:47 PM Page 393 Curtains for Jim Crow: Law, Race, and the Texas Railroads William S. Osborn* n September 15, 1893, Thomas W. Cain , a black resident o f OGalveston, was visiting in St. Louis, Missouri. H e purchased a ticket for rail travel home and paid an extra fare for a berth in a Pullman car. His trip began without incident. At Longview, Texas, this Pullman car was switched onto an International & Great Norther n Railroad Company train bound for Galveston. Upon arrival at Troup, Texas, I. & G. N. train- master J. C. Gregory announced to Cain that his presence in the sleeping car with whites violated a new state statute. This statute, the first Texas law regarding segregation on the railways, had passed in the 18 9 1 le g i s l a - tive session. It required separate coaches or compartments for white and black passengers. Trainmaster Gregory instructed Cain to move from his Pullman car to a day coach assigned to blacks only. Cain objected but to no avail. H e was refunded $2, this sum being the premium fare calculat- ed for Pullman travel on the remainder of his journey.1 * W illiam S.
