.aoks Like Persecution.

The ease of the city against the managers of the Eden Musee, charged with disturbing the peace. was dis missed in Police coaIrt this morning by Judge Vernon Immediately after the court adjourned Messrs John Wells and John Portis sought an interview with Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Tom Hardison and pre- vailed on that attorney 10 file infor- nation against. these people, the charge being aggravated assault The ease was brought in Judge Moore's court. Lawyer A. E. Grace appeared in Judge Moore's court and objected to the calling of the case because the Assistant Prosecuting Attorney had failed to give bond for costs. The Judge overruled Mir. Grace who thereupon made appli- cation for change of venue, which was granted and the case was set in Judge Matthews court this evening Ut } o'clock
 The way the affair shapes itself up in our minds is simply one of down right persecution, a desire on the part of Wells and portis to get even with the proprietors of the Eden Mnsee. who simply defended themselves when attacked by men who at the time were in their cups.

MAYOR D. (. BELL

 to Certain Criticisms.

Editor of the GRAPHIC
 Ideem it proper tolnake the follow ing statementof facts. Upon assunl- ing the duties as Mayor, last April, | learned there were three houses Of ill-fame plying their vocation within the city limits of Pine Bluff, and that regular monthly fines were being i'm posed and collected from each, as penalty for violation of law
 In so much as all three of these institutions were located in sparsely settled and out of the way portion of the City, and knowing, too, that they had been permitted to exist there underp previous Administrations and without serious protest from the public. and realizing further that large majority of the people here as elsewhere recognize such places when propely restricted) to be a public necessity" and q "nec- essary evil, there seemed to be no wiser course for me to pursue than to throw around them the necessary police regulations and let them be.
 But when such all attempt at further encroachment upon the main business portion of the city was being made. on account Of the official action taken by me, some days ago during recess of the City Council, to thwart the plans of a certain courtesan in her attempt to establish, contrary to law and in op- position to public disapproval, a bawdy house on the corner Of one Of the thoroughfares Of this city within one block of the Court house and within q stone throw of the City Hall
 The yenerate and pions(?) elitor of the Daily Commercial, Gin q one sided article of his own and also by giving free publications to d contri- button of a blatherskite who over zealously undertakes to create sym pathy for the t'yprion by .impugning the honest motives of the city fathers succeeds admirably in making an ass of himsclf) takes me to task with u stab in the back and then undertakes to read public off cials a lecture on injustice and dis crimination.
 In order that the public may fully understand the question which has given rise to so much comment through the press and on the streets as in my judgement would be calcu- lated to give undue publicity to such business and invoke public criticism, it was then that felt unwilling to assume the responsibility of allowing the individual in question oproceed, and therefore ordered the house closed until the Board of Aldermen, who are not only the representatives of the people but in court pallance, the jury i'll such cases as well, collld convene and act.
 Conscious of having discharged my duty in the premises and having done the woman no greater wrong than she herself is to blame for, l leave the matter with the public to judge as they see fit.

THE OUTLOOK.
What Pine Bluff Business Han Thinks Of the Condition and Future of the
 Country.

Country.
 A reporter for the GRAPHIC called on'Mr. W. H. Langford, President of the ]. E. spcers Grocer Company. and asked him to give us his views in regard to the business of the coun- try, the outlook and the general pressure that is now asserting itself over the entire commercial world and the causes therefor Among other things he said:
 'The business outlook is fairly good The stfingency in the money market, the comparatively high and firm prices of all staple merchandise. the low price of cotton. so far, this season, and the lesson taught the people te do without when they could dc no better, has infused the idea of economy and thrift into all business.
 Business men are consequently dc ingon less capital, making what they have go farther, paying their debts more promptly and are handling their trade more satisfactorily than they have ever been enabled to do qef0re
 Money with men who have il you may say, and justly so. Those who have bank account desire to keep it where they can get it when they want it. and no one blames them, at the same time business with business men is as satisfactory as could be expected. Most every one has paid his obligations and calculated his wants for this year. and while the expectation is to dc on less, it will go great deal farther than ever before.
 Business is done on safer basis now than l ever knew it. No one will buy unless he can sec his way out. and on the other hand ne one will sell unless he is sure to get his money when due. Naturally, last yearit was the currency, this winter it's Congress and the tariff. Un- certainty last year about what would be done with cur currency by Congress greatly aggravated the business depression. At this time uncertainty about the prices affected by tariff schedules retards revival Ii something could he done to settle national affairs-do away with the nty-the country would soon forget the crisis she is undergoing Trade would increase if these things could be speedily settled Commerce has done wonders in spite of governmental Interference. but the people and country are so much more wonderful than their trade or commerce that nobody can predict what it might do. Congress ought to stop this uncertainty. All business demands prompt action OH this point Stop the losses and let the profits of trade begin.
 Pine Bluff is doing as well or bet ter than any city of it's size that 1 know Of. She will continue to do her share of the business. and as far as have been able to learn her mer- chants all did well in 1898 and expect to do better in ls94
 We hadprosperous times for quite Il while. One extreme usually fol- lows another The depression has been on us for several years. 1 pre- diet good business for this year.

TOLUCA MINERS ATTACKED.
Five Men Wounded in a Row at
a Mining Town.
Strikers Used Clubs on Men Who
Refused to Quit Work.

TOLUCA. H.. April 2S.-Rioting broke
out here at $50 o'clock last night. and
the first blood was shed owing to the re-
fusal Of several miners to quit work.
Five men were wounded before the
deputies could reach the scene of the
trouble. The fighting was over in two
minutes. Several pistols were fired
without other effect han to attract a
crowd of miners who had been carous-
ing in the neighboring saloons and dance
halls.
The wounded are r. Garibaldi, Frank
Martini and Demetri Spike. Two others
known to have been badly injured. were
carried into the woods by their friends
and nave not been found. The doctors
say the men named will recover. They
were beaten with clubs. Garibaldi and
Martini are Italians. while Spike Is a
Pole. After the ARRAY they were carried
to a saloon. where their wounds were
dressed.
The fight was the result OF a meeting
OF strikers from neighboring villages and
men who said they would not stop work.
Words led to blows, and serious trouble
was only averted through the belligerents
being on the outskirts Of the town. The
attacking party fled. and after a brief
search the deputies CAV up the attempt
to aptur them.
