ton.
1t is stated on good authority that
within short time work on another,
the fourth unnel under he East River
will be begun. The concession for the
tunnel was obtained from the legis-
lature twelve years ago. About ten
years ago a shaft was sunk on the
Manhattan side and the work on the
tunnel proper begun. The work was
stopped, however, after terrific dyna-
mite explosion at the mouth of the tun-
mel. by which six persons were killed
and over fifty injured. The concession
has passed into the hands of a corpora
ton with August Belmont at it's head
and closely allied with the subway
company. 1t is believed that the tun-
mel when completed. will become part
of the subway system.
The trouble between the employers
and the employees in the building
trades which eliminated in a gigantic
lockout, involving at least fifty thou
sand men. is causing a great deal of
trouble and delay in building opera
tons. The work on the subway and on
some OF the largest buildings now in
course of erection, has been Temperate
| ly tied up and even if the contractors
succeed in securing nom union men
enough to complete their contracts, it
will be impossible for them to finish
the work within contract time. The
Obstinacy of the unions has greatly
injured their cause and lost them. to a
great extent, the sympathies of the
public. The employers are determined
to solve the problem by declaring open
shop and declining to have any more
seems that they are in a fair way Of
| carrying their point.
Automobile enthusiasts are highly
elated over the result of recent efforts
to estimate the number of automobiles
owned and used in this city as COM
pared with pleasure vehicles drawn by
horses The number of automobiles and
pleasure vehicles drawn by horses
which passed at six carefully selected
spots during one day was counted and
n fol
certained that about one-fift of the
pleasure vehicles of this city are auto
mobiles The number of autos is rap
| idly increasing and it is confidently
expected that soon the number of au-
tOs in New York will be one third of
the entire number of pleasure ve-
hicles. =
BY the recent transfer of the Archer

books. paintings coins. manuscripts
and objects of historical and archaeo-
logical interest to the newly founded
Hlspanic Society Of America the num-
Der of valuable and interesting histori-
cal and art collections of this city has
received an important addition. Mr.
Huntington devoted fourteen years and
large sum of money to the accumula-
ton of the collection, which is now in
the Huntington library at Pleasance

home of the Hispanic Society is COM
pleted the greater part of the cOlec-

The refusal Of the owners of the ex-
| cursion steamer Grand Republic to
obey the orders of the federal steam
boat inspectors who demanded that
the steamer should not be used for car
| rying passengers to Dreamland until
the steamer mad been reinspected and
| found in proper condition, has revealed
| a peculiar state of affairs. 1t has prac-
tically demonstrated, that the federal
! inspectors are pOWerleSs to enforce
| their orders. Although the inspectors
| had sufficient evidence that the equip
ment of the steamer as to fire appara
| tus, life belts, etc, was entirely in
| adequate and not in conformance WITH
| the laws. the owners of the boat con-
tinued to employ the Grand Republic
| to transport passengers to and from
! Dreamland. 1t has been discovered
| that, under the laws the use of the
steamer for transporting passengers
| cannot be stopped. All that can be
done is to bring a charge against the
owners of the steamer and fine them
spection laws. If the owners of the
steamer can afford or are willing to
in commission as long as they choose.

PLEASANT GATHERING.

Mrs. w. L. Lyons of Muncie, Ind, formerly of Newport, was the recipient of a pleasant day socially Tuesday, when Mrs. B. H. Yeager invited her to spend the day at her home south of town, Mrs. Yeager hav- ing previously invited several la dies that were old time friends of Mrs. Lyons to meet her there.
 The day passed all too rapid ly, talking over old times, which added interest to the occasion. At noon a sumptuous dinner was served by the hostess, who is known as a mistress of the culi- nary art.
 Those. present were Mesdames w. L. Lyons, A. H. Mcdonald, E. M. Mcdonald, L. B. Young, s. M. Horine, J. E. McElwee, T. T. Ward, o. W. Scarborough, J. w. Phillips.

The entire day was consumed by Sorrell's attorney attempting to show that the shortage occurred in the receipt given by Sorrell to ex-Treasurer Gossett. Gossett's attorneys have had nothing to do with the case thus far, The whole bur den of the proof lies on the pres ent treasurer. Gossett' attor- neys say his receipts tally with the amount with which he is charged and they are suffering no uneasiness for their client. The trial will likely be continued tomorrow.

PROFESSOR SKAGGS
 PEACE PROMOTER.
Paid Costs of Court Proceed ings A g a in st One of His Teachers Who Had Used
 Rod Too Severely.

Paragould, Oct. 10. Prof. w. J. Leroy, a teacher in the public schools of this city, was to have been tried in the mayors court here Saturday on the charge of cruelty whipping Alvin Cox,a IA year-old student, during the week.
 Considerable feeling w s aroused over the incident, and the people were about equally di- vided over the matter. Some marks seem to have been left on the person of the boy by the f1og- ging, and when he went home and exhibited these and gave his version of the trouble for which he was punished his father, Geo. Cox, a prominent real estate dealer of this city, swore out a warrant for the arrest of the teacher. The arrest followed, and the trial was set for Satur- day.
 Before the hour set for trial arrived City Supt. Skaggs got the parties together and set- tied the matter out of court. To avoid injuring the schools by the excitement incident to a public trial and engendering i'll feelings in the community, the superin- tendent proposed to pay all costs so far accrued and drop the mat ter. The offer was accepted by the aggrieved parties and the case was ordered dismissed.

Cotton Plant, Ark, October IS. The most rigid blue laws have been enforced here for sev- eral months under the adminis- tration of Hon. w. T. Trice as Mayor. Henry Lane, grocery man, broke over yesterday and was arraigned before Mayor Trice today, and upon jury trial was acquitted. Mayor Trice promptly forwarded his resigna- tion to Gov. Davis. Now pe- tition is being circulated for the appointment of John R. Meehan as mayor. Quite a sentiment here for a wide open town.

COUNTY-SEAT CONTEST

Center Point Seeks To Delay Removal of Court House To

Nashville, October IS. -Appli- cation is to be made to the Ar kansas supreme court for a writ of prohibition against Circuit Judge J. s. Steele, to prevent him from in any manner inter- fering with the county court in the settlement of the county-seat contest. The special election to decide between Center Point and Nashville, was held October ', and the official count shows that Nashville received 1,532 votes, and Center Point 1865. The county court thereupon made an order of removal of all records to Nashville, and that court con- vened in this city yesterday in the face of an injunction issued by Judge Steele. Attorneys for Center Point prayed an appeal which was granted, and asked for a supersedeas of the order of removal, which was refused. Center Point filed notice of con- test, alleging irregularities in the election, and a spirited contro- versy is promised.

IAUTIFUL WEATHER ]. CHARACTERIZED WEEK.
dtton Picked Now Estimated At Seventy-Five Per Cent In Southwestern Arkan- sas - Northeastern
 Section Reports
 We'll.
For the week ending October

For the week ending October The week was characterized 6 wxar.a clear days and cool nights with an almost total ab- sence of rain. Cotton is opening nicely, and in many sections is nearly all open. Picking has been carried on without interruption from unfavorable weather con- ditions, and a considerable por- tion of the crop has been picked, ranging from fifteen to twenty five per cent in the northeast section; to sixty to seventy-five per cent in the southwest sec tion. The yield is very satisfac- toryfin the northeast portion of the state, elsewhere not so satis- factory. Corn is being gathered generally, and in the more south ern counties the bulk of the crop has been gathered; the yields se- cured have generally been good for the early corn and very poor for the late.
 Late potatoes and turnips are poor crops, owing to lack of moisture; sweet potatoes are fair to good. Some wheat has been sown in the northern portion of the state, and that which was planted ten or fifteen days ago is coming up to good stand. Much less than the usual amount of fall blowing has been done, as the ground has been too hard from continued droughty condi- tions. Pastures are drying up; however, stock is generally do- ing well. Apples have nearly all been gathered; theyields secured were generally a little better than was generally indicated earlier in the season.
