NEW ARRESTS EXPECTED
IN JOHNSON MURDER,
Detectives Believe Plot Was Hatched
to Kill Mrs. Chilton-Obtain
Names of Accessories.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Birch Tree. Mo-, June 2.-Detectives at
work on the murder Of little Della johnson,
whose head was almost severed from her
body while she slept, are said to have re-
ceived information to the effect that the
murderer intended to kill Mrs. Charles
Chiffon, and that the plans for the assassi-
nation were carefully laid.
Numerous threats had been made against
her. Two or three persons are said to have
known of the intended murder and arrests
in connection with the case are expected at
any moment.
Saturday night probably was selected by
the murderer because he knew that Mrs.
George johnson, at whose home Mrs. Chill
ton is living, would be at the Rebekah
Lodge, where she was initiated. As the
initiation exercises are quite lengthy the
murderer would be safe in supposing that
the other members Of the family would re-
tire and leave the front door unlocked for
Mrs. johnson to enter on her return from
the lodge meeting.
George johnson. cousin of the little girl
is still under arrest. but none Of the rela-
tives of the girl believes that he had any
thing to do with 1t. The theory Ia that the
murderer entered the house, and, mistak-
ing little Della Johnson for Mrs. Chiffon,
struck the fatal blow and made his escape.
George johnson was aroused by the blow
and grappled with the assassin, but could
across the chest by the ak, which was
found in the center of the floor.
Mrs. Chiffon was not in the house at the
time of the murder. as she testified at the
Coroner's inquest but was out in the yard
talking to Charles Nesbitt

APPEARED AT DEPARTMENT
IN BEHALF OF COMPANY.

After the company had difficulty in secur-
ing its money for the device, Mr.. Loud. the
Post will say. appeared at the department in
Its behalf, but specifically disclaimed any in
terest in the company other than that it
was composed of his constituents. He took
the ground that whatever the necessity or
lack of necessity for the device. constitu-
ents of his had secured the contract and
furnished the articles called for. Therefore,
he believed, they should be paid, as the
Government had stipulated TO pay them
During his recent visit to this city, Mr..
Loud. on certain of his visits to the de-
partment. took up some of these unpaid
bills, making it plain. however that he APP
peared only in behalf of constituents and
was not financially interested in the COM
pany.
1t was alleged. the Post will say. that
$4,000 of the deficiency of s105,OOO in the
free-delivery service, with which Mr.. Ma
chen is charged, was due to the purchases
OF the device in question, but at the POST
Office Department this was denied, and the
statement made that the matter was under
investigation.
Complaints also had been made, it was
stated, that at the instance of Mr.. Loud,
the rolls at the Preside had been padded
with postal employees, but at the Pest Office
Department they are without any knowledge
Of such thing one way or the other.
An effort was made to get statement
from Mr.. Machen on the subject, but he de-
clined either to affirm or to deny the re-
ports

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Pittsburg, Pa. June 22-Mrs. Helen B.

has completed a hazardous tour Of Breath
lit County, Kentucky. The Breathitt Coal,
Iron and Lumber Company owned $4,000

COTTON THREE WEEKS LATE.
Crop in Good Condition Otherwise,
but Labor Is Scarce.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
b. Pine Bluff. Ark. June "a prominent
local cotton factor. regarding the present
condition of crops in this section to-day
sent to foreign correspondents the follow
ing report:
THE weather in this section for the last
ten days has been all that could be desired,
and. while the crop Is grassy in places. the
farmers are rapidly getting 1t in good
shape. A light rain would help In most
places. though we can do without it.
THE recent high water and cold weather
have wiped out the increased acreage. and
the crop Is now in about the same position
as last year. with the exception Of being
three weeks late and smaller plant.
In many places along the river cotton is
just coming up. Labor is scarce and hard
to manage. and 1t is question as to
whether or not late cotton will receive the
proper amount Of cultivation. The high
price OF cotton stimulates planters to make
every possible effort and they are paying
81 to SIPS per day for choppers. as against
the usual price Of 60 to IS cents"
