Brooks Applies for a Mandamus
on the State Treasury.
Smallpox Breaks out i'm Brooks
Camp.
The Military Situation More ON
nous.
Will the Legislature Have a Quo
rum Next Monday?

LITTLE Rock, ARK, May 1.-THE two
missing Judges, Bennett and Searle, escaped
from their captors in Saline county, last
night, and arrived in the city to-day, under
federal escort, which went out last night
and again this forenoon to look for them.
Three Judges of the Supreme Court, Ne
Clure, Stephenson and Searle held a meet
ing to-day, to hear an application for a
mandamus to compel the State Treasurer
TO honor the drafts Of JOS. Brooks on the
Treasury as Governor. The matter was
taken under adviSement till 10 o'clock to-
morrow. The session was held at the Capitol.
The constitution requires full bench to
do business. No lawyers were in attend
ance except those inside the Brooks line.
One hundred and sixty stand of arms
loaned by Gov. Baxter to the Industrial
University at Fayetteville have been seized
by Brooks adherents.
Last night party of five or six Brooks
men pelJed the house of Gen. w. d.
Blacher, Baxterite on Centre street with
stones, breaking the glass in the windows.
Gen. Blacher was in Baxter's company.
His house is inside the Brooks lines.
The measles, and it is reported the small
pox also, have broken out in Brooks camp.
One Lieutenant died yesterday and was
buried to-day in the State-hOuse grounds
with military honOrs.
Baxter received one company Of reinforce
ments tonight. Matters are becoming
more critical and complicated every day
The State-house party have been engaged
to-day in throwing up earthwOrks in the
rear of the block just opposite the State
house. The same StTictness as last night is
observed in both camps. Tonight double
sentinels surround the Anthony House,
and it is with some difficulty citizens can
pass.
The Baxter side is confident that a quo
rum in each House of the General Assem-
bly, will be present on Monday, while the
Brooks men declare that no quorum will
meet.
ST. LOUIS, May 6.-The Democrat has
special to the effect that a Baxterite Of
ticer named Summeryille, finding at head
quarters that Judges Bennett and Searle
were to be assassinated, revealed the plot
to them and gave them each a revolver and
horse. Afterwards he led their escape, but
they, suSpecting him, drew their revOlvers
and made him prisoner in turn. Suisse
quently they met up with the squad of
Federal soldiers sent in search of them.
