TEN CENT COTTON REALIZED.

The prediction of ten-cent cotton by the cotton factors of Little Rock a few weeks ago was realized Thurs day, says the Gazette, when the mar ket reached and passed the ten-cent mark. Cotton was sold at Little Rock for even ten cents, while spots in New York took flying leap and reached 1O.O5.
 One of the largest transactions Thursday was at the top of the market. Col. R. A. Little sold to Ad Hamberg of the Lesser Cotton Company 1,25O bales at ten cents. The consideration involved was $65, 5,000.
 Thursday prices all over the coun- try broke the record of two years. The last time cotton went to ten cents was in the great January corner of the season of 19OOO1. Last season the highest mark reached was close around 9.85. Then the market slump | ed cent and half and caused oisas- ter among large holders. Everything this year, however, indicates steady if not continued rise to more rec
 ord- breaking heights. New York spot opened Thursday at 9.80, making the days rise record breaker. May ' futures in New York rose from 9.64 to
 9.S5, when the close came. The sell i ing in Little Rock has not been large, the Lesser transaction Thursday be- l ing the largest in several days. Those
 who have cotton are holding it for the | top of the market.

BALL FROM PISTOL
 GRAZED HIS H BAD.

A. J. Hunter, living 1-2 miles from Remmel on the old Tom Honey place: was in town Monday, having a warrant sworn out for the arrest of Pat Mcbride, whom he stated to an INDEPENDENT reporter, shot at him Sunday, with intent to kill and &C., cording to Hunters story, it was only a remarkable chance which saved his life.
 Hunter had warned Pat Mcbride to keep off his place, as the latter had had trouble with the formers daugh- ter-in- law. Sunday about noon, when Hunter left the house, Mcbride entered and when the latter returned, Mcbride assaulted him with knife and pistol. Seeing that MCE ,ide was aiming to fire, Hunter tucked his head and the ball grazed the left temple, making a flesh wound. Hunter then landed on Mcbride with his left hand, breaking one finger.
 Mcbride was knocked down and escaped. He has not been seen since the assault and papers have been issued for his arrest.

SENATE PASSES KING BILL.
Insurance Clause Amendment Defeat ed By Vote of Is to 13. Anti Trust
 Measure Has An Easy Passage.

Little Rock, Feb 24-One of the most memorable contests in the leg islative annals of Arkansas closed in the senate at 6 o'clock yesterday evening when the King anti trust bill, unamended, passed that body by a vote of P ayes to noes.
 The real struggle was over the judi ciary committee majority amendment, which proposed to eliminate the DOT tion of the bill affecting fire insurance companies. This was the main point of contention. Delegations of busi ness mon from various parts of the state had appeared before the senate judiciary committee and advanced arguments against the insurance clause insisting that as fire insurance was a basis of credit, the withdrawal of the companies doing business in Arkansas would seriously injure b u s Il s throughout the state. Senator Killough introducer of the amendment in the committee to strike out the insurance clause. The contest over this issue on the floor of the senate began last week and the matter was debated exhaus- lively.
 Amid almost breathless stiffness the secretary called the roll and the fol lowing voted aye on the amendment: Adams, Caldwell, Collins, Gotham, Fletcher, Gray, Killough, Mardis, Price, Rison, Sengel, Simpson and Witt-13.
 Against the amendment: Brown, Butt, Cotton, Covington, Flennilken, Hardy, Huddleston, lobe, Killgore, King, Logan, Matlock, McFerrin, Nor wood, Vaughter and Wilson-16.
 The amendment was rejected. Then motion to adjourn failed to carry. The contest was on to the finish. Under the final vote for the bill, only five nays were recorded, and as the bill is supposed to have been written by Governor Davis and is a fac -simile of the Keel bill, which passed the house by vote of 93 to 3, there re- mains no doubt but that it will ulti- mately become g law.

After Passage By Both Houses Goes to Governor Davis For His
 Approval.

The bill which passed the senate Tuesday, and which will now go to the governor for his signature, regu lating the pearl fisheries of the state, is one of the most important measures that has been introduced during the present session, and is the first rec ognition on our statutes of the new industry. It was presented by Dr.. J. H. Myers of Black Rock, and had the indorsement of many of the business organizations of that part of the state. The principal features of the bill are as follows:

 "Section 2. 1t shall be unlawful for any person to use at any time during the fishing or open season any instru- ment called a 'crowfoot' or any simi lar tool or device, the point of which might enter the flesh of the mussels and thereby destroy but not remove the mussels from said water; provid- ed this shall not apply to tongs or forks, and provided, further, dredges shall not pc allowed in the waters of the state.
 "Section 8. That it shall be unlaw- ful for any person or persons, corpor- ation or company to return to the wa ters, lakes, bayous, rivers or streams of this state, any shells once taken from same.
 "Section 4. That any persons or company guilty of violation of any of the provisions of this act shall be deemed guilty of misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be fined for each offense not less than $25 nor more than $100.-Little Rock Demo- crat.

A petition was circulated and sign ed by a large majority of the business men of Newport Thursday, disclaim- ing the resolution urging the passage of the Myers bill, adopted by few members of the Business Mems League at a meeting for which no authorized call was made and of which only few members had any knowl- edge.

The council failed to meet Monday morning. That body, it is understood will rebate a portion of the city license fees, for that time in which the controversy was pending before the county judge had granted license. The general sentiment of the business men is that such course would be no more than fair, as otherwise the sa> loon men will be paying for something they did not get.

DR.. Blaustein thought that this work would be

OF the friendly visitor to individual families.
