Secretary Smith Has an Inquiring Turn OF
Mind-The Other Secretaries.

WASHINGTON, y. c., March 1g.-At

tary Hoke Smith sees all who call. and
gives each as much of his time as he

of his attention TO systematizine matters

some Of the details of his great depart
ment, which is undoubtedly the most
important in the executive branch of the
Government one OF his important bu-
reaus is that Of pensions, where the dis
bursements last year aggregated over
$40 OO0 900. In this work a clerical force
Of nearly 1000 Is kept constantly en-
poyed. AS can be readily imagined. this
bureau needs constant attention by the
head of the department, and Secretary
Smith will very soon make II his business

Arkansas Crops.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Sept. 20
The temperature during the past
week has averaged 1859 which
is just five degrees above the nor
NAL.
The precipitation for the week
at stations from which reports have
been received, averaged LIS inch
es, which is LA inches greater than
the normal amount. The greatest
excesses were reported from Fort
Smith, Newport, and Russellville,
and the greatest deficiency was at
Texarkana, where no rain was re-
ported.
The high tenn perature, abundant
sunshine and absence of precipita-
ton during the first part of the
week still further aggravated the
effects Of the prolonged drouth.
The western part ofthe State shows
the greatest falling off in the condi-
tion Of cotton. In other portions
it has about held its own. The
greatest complaint is that the
young bolls have become so parch-
ed that they have fallen off and
thus materially shortened the crop.
Cotton is opening rapidly and pick
ing is general except in the northern
portion, where it will be delayed
until October l. In some of the
southern counties three-fourths Of
the entire crop is open, and it is
expected that all the crop in these
counties will be picked within four
weeks. Quite a general complaint
is that the premature opening of
bolls causes the lint to be very short
in few lowland counties, where
the plant has stood the drouth we'll.
A late frost will materially increase
the yield by giving the top crop
time to mature.
The rains of the Ed, Esd, and
Oath were a great benefit to the en-
tire State, as all fall vegetation was
greatly in noed of moisture. Streams
were running dry, wells giving out
and the land was so dry as to pre-
vent blowing and seeding. Next
weeks reports will show much
progress made in the latter kind
of farm work and an improved con-
dition of potatoes, peas, turnips
and all late garden truck.

Col. H. Clay King, the murderer
of David H. Poston, who is now
serving life sentence in the Ten
nessee penitentiary as punish
ment for the CRIME, has issued an
address to the public in which he
makes some sensational charges.
He alleges that his conviction
was brought about by a conspiracy
between Judge Julius J, Duboise,
of the Shelby county criminal court,
and the relatives of Poston. Du-
boise, he states, nsed every means
in his power to secure conviction
in order to placate the Postons,
who were his political enemies.
King also charges that Mrs. Gid
con J. Pillow and David H. Pos
ton, the murdered man, were Grim
inally intimate. The publication
of the card has caused a sensation.
King wrote it for the purpose Of
arousing public sentiment in his
favorin the hope of securing a
pardon, but he will fail in his
object, as Gov. Turney was a mem-
Der of the supreme court when
Kings sentence was affirmed.
