Judge Parker approved of everything
that has been done and all that the

was enthusiastic over the campaign
work. The report carried to Rose-
mount by Mr.. Nicoll indicated the close
of the Murphy McCarren feud in
Greater New York. He said that the
appointment of Victor J. Bowling as
a member of the State executive COM

ganization, which will have charge of
the city campaign, is satisfactory to
Charles F. Murphy. leader of Tamma-

Chefoo, Aug. 24.-(9:30 a MIA junk

here. She reports that the japanese
have succeeded in occupying Antseshan
fort, as we'll as another fort. probably

They have driven the Russians from

Four large warships, unable to fight,

washington, August 23.-(Speciai.N
An Arkansas boil weevil scarce
knowledge of which was transmitte%
to the bureau of entomology OF tho
agricultural department, is pronounce&
unwarranted.
Insects submitted to the bureau byf
planters in Hampstead and Little Rvs
err counties and believed by them to ba

species Of insect not seriously harmfuS
to cotton. the decision having been ARK
rived at this evening after a carefuE

The planters concerned were accord%i

partment expects that sooner OF lated
the weevil will invade Arkansas and

Information from Texas from fields
in which the utmost precautions have
been taken and in which desperate bats
tie has been waged by the planters
against the weevil are anything bus
encouraging.
