PRELIMINARY SURVEY Of Pine Bluff and Western Railroad Has Been
 Completed AND ENGINEERING CORPS NOW AT WORK ON PERMANENT
 SURVEY
 
Benton Correspondent Writes i- a Rosy Manner About the Pre-
 posed Extension.
WILL BE BUILT IMMEDIATELY

Benton correspondent of the Ar kansas Democrat writes in the follow ing roseate manner of the proposed Pine Bluff and Western railroad:
 "The preliminary survey of the Pine Bluff and Western railroad has beer completed to Benton and the engi- neers' corps are now making the per manent survey. We understand that there are certain complications and hitherto unsuspected influences in volved whose interests will require the immediate completion of this line to this point. This will be the fourth railroad for our town, and we hail it's advent with genuine good will. Be sides giving us a direct line to Sheri- dan, Pine Bluff and the southeast. this road will open up communication through some sixty miles of the finest timber and farm lands in the state. It will inevitably result in the location of at least two of the largest milling enterprises in the southwest at our doors and vastly increase our local business along the lines When we re- call in this connection that there has not been a time within two years that vacant house of any description could be secured unless engaged weeks ahead, we feel that we should be justly elated at the bright pros poets ahead of our reiuvenated little city. Verify, the street cars and cleo tric lights are now to be heard and seen in the rosy future, bound hither.' ;

 COURTS FINDINGS.
osapproval of the Majority Opinion Will Be Asked Of the Seere-
 tary.

Washington, Dec. 17.-Admiral Schley was in consultation yesterday afternoon with his counsel, Isador Raynor and Mir. Teague, also Gen. Felix Angus of Baltimore and Con- gressman Schirm of Maryland After the conference Admiral Schley auth orized Mr. Teague to make the follow ing statement: We have been in con- sultation as to what furthe" proceedinas shall be taken. Nothing definite has been de termined upon so far as civil or criminal action of any kind against Maclay and his sponsors are concern ed. Maclay's claims that the findings of the court are vindication of him. self and his book is absolutely spur ious. There are no less than hall dozen instances in the book. even if he were to accept the findings of the court and incorporate them in tn" volume and change it to suit the flnd ines. the book would still be crimlH- al libel"
 Mir. Teague during the forenoon presented the following to Secretary Long:
 Washington. Dee. 16.
 s-I have the honor to most re- spe> ,fnlly request that you withhold your approval from the findings of the court of inquiry. recently held at thS navy yard in the city of Washington, of Which Admiral George Dewey was president. until such time as may have an opprtunity to file a statement of ohiections thereto. and therefore request that you do not dissolve the court until action shall nave been taken on such objections.

Mayor Bell called the attention of the members of the council to the meeting of the board of health held
 several days ago. He expected that the board would call on the council for new pesthouse. His opinion was that the views of the board should be acqulesced in. He thought that it
 would not be wise for the council to oppose the views of the board of health. Several members of the council spoke briefly on the subject. They did not want to appear in the light of opposing the board of health, but did not think that new pest house was, at the present time. neces- sary. They did not believe that it would have three occupants year. They favored putting off the erection
 of new pesthouse until later day.
