Former Employees At Panama Kick sam
Davis's Body Back.

Aboard the Panama Railroads steam
ship SeguranCa. in Yesterday from Colon,
were fifteen former canal employees,
most of whom either resigned or we're
discharged from Government service. Some
Of them had hard words to say about sani-
tary conditions on the Isthmus. Two
passengers only had abnormally high tenn
peratures, and they were unconnected
with canal employment. They are John
Albert Warren, 81 years old, miner, and
Lamont Northrup years old, and they
were sent to Hoffman Island for obf va

fever Mrs. Northrup went with her boy

HAD SPECTATOR ARRESTED.
Hot Time at HippOdrome Family Circle
Intake While Manager Pressed q Charge.

George Kingsrury, business manager Of
the Hippodrome. saw two ticket specula
tors carrying away a SOS grilled iron sign
from the main entrance last night and he
called Policeman Carlin. One OF the men
ran away and the other who stood his
ground, said they were not stealing the
sign, but were moving 1t away SO that they
could stand in the space 1t had occupied.
Kingsbury seemed to think the speculator
had designs on the sign and he insisted on
his arrest. He was arrested, but in the
East Fifty-frst street station kingsbury
relented sufficiently to charge him only
with disorderly conduct.
While Kingsbury was at the police sta
ton, there were doings around the family
circle entrance of the Hippodrome, on the
Forty-third street side Of the building.
He keeps the family circle tickets in his
desk and gives them out to the ticket
sellers as they are needed. He did not
give out the tickets last night before he
started for the police station. and while
he was there, men and women began to
demand family circle seats. There were
none on sale and the ticket sellers could not
get any without finding kingsbury.
The manager was finally brought ba OK
In a cab in time to prevent small riot.

MUNICIPAL LIGHTING PLANS,
REPORTS INITIAL
COST S7,567 900.
Twenty Per Cent. Of That Sum, Report says,
Can BE saved Yearly Electricity for
Whole Clty-Prlvate Standards OF Skill
and Economy Assumed In Estiina tes.

ana ECONOMY Assumed In Estlinates.
The commission. OF which Cary T. Hutch
inson Is the head, appointed last fall by
Mayor Mcclellan to prepare plans for
municipal lighting plant submitted yes
terday second report to the Board OF
Estimate. This report dealt mostly with
the cost Of construction Of central power
station and the cost of operation of a plant
to supply all public lighting by electricity
to the exclusion OF gas.
The specifications prepared by the COM
mission cover l35 printed pages. Includ-
ing land. buildings and all equipment for
a central station to furnish all the electric
lighting needed by the city the cost is act
at 81 $4,000. 1t has been worked out also
by the commission that the annual cost OF
operating the plant, including interest on
the outlay for construction and allowances
for depreciation will be 81. 2690 900. 40
cording to these estimates the cost per
arc light to the city would be S8407 per
year instead Of the $l48 which is charged
by the lighting corporations for street
lighting. For incandescent service it will
be SIS cents per kowatt hour instead OF
the 10 cent basis which the companies under
the bill passed at the last session OF the
Legislature can charge.
The total cost of supplying the service
contemplated in the report at the rates
charged the city by the Edison company
would be 81. $50 900; the operation OF this
plant at the annual figure given above
would therefore effect an annual saving
of n,4si 900, equal to approximately 20
per cent. of the investment required.
The report says that material reductions
can be effected by the use Of smaller units
for street illumination. and, in particular.
by the Use of Nernst lamp OF the series
type. replacing the Welsbach and other
gas and naphtha lights unit for unit, 1t
adds
pumping can be effected by the use OF cleo
trically driven centrifugal pumps, In place
of the steam driven pumps in all save the
The estimates Of the cost Of construction
and of operation included in this report
presuppose economy and skill equal to that
shown In the conduct OF private corpora
We believe that, the use Of the city wastes
as fuel for this plant would be entirely i'm
practicable this opinion being based on pre-
liminary estimates.
Attention is drawn by the commission to
the fact that there are in Manhattan and
The Bronx 442 miles of streets lighted by
gas and naphtha and that the Use OF these
would be eliminated by the plans recon-
mended.
For the proposed central plant the city
has already purchased ground bounded by
Ninetieth and Ninety first streets, Avenue
A and the East River and it is the opinion
of the commission that this site will provide
for the building Of plant which will supply
the lighting needs Of the city for at least
twenty years.
The report was referred bv the Board OF
Estimate to Nelson p Lewis the chief
engineer Of the board, and to Comptroller
Circuit.

Old Grudge Causes Fight.

Lonoke, Aug. 25. -J. J. Put nam, 22 years of age, was prob ably fatally stabbed this evening by John Baldwin. Baldwin used a large knife and cut an ugly gash in Putnam's left side just below the heart.
 The affair grew out of an old grudge between Putnam and Baldwin's brother. Putnam has an excellent reputation in the neighborhood of his home, which is near Lonoke.
 Baldwin jumped on his horse immediately after the stabbing and has so far not been cap. tured. Officers are in pursuit of him.

DOESN'T REGARD COUNTY LINES.
Judge Moose Says Three-MiIe Law Is Not
 Limited By County Boundaries.

Russellville, Aug. 25. Circuit
 Judge William L. Moose has ad-
 dressed the following letter to s. c. Harris and others of Ross, relative to an interesting con- struction of the three-mile law:
 T have your letter stating that the county court of Pope county had recently made an order prohibiting the sale of wine and other intoxicating liquors within three miles of a certain church situated in that county, that the three-mile limit described in the order reaches into and embraces certain terri tory in Johnson county; and that some persons there contend that the order has no force beyond the limits of Pope county.
 As it is a matter of public concern, you ask my opion as to whether the order was effective within that part of the three mile radius that lies in Johnson county. 1 answer that it is. Assuming that the order was regularly made, it reaches to the full limit of three miles from the church in all directions, regard less of county lines. Our supreme court has so decided in the case of Wilson vs. Thompson, 56 Ark, page no. The court in that case states in effect that it is not the 1 order of the county court, in and l of itself, that prohibits, but that it is the statute under which the court acts that gives the order So that it is not in fact ] court exercising jurisdiction beyond the territorial limits of

MADE IT THREE STRAIGHT.
That "f0t Bunch" Must Have Cooled Off Before They Reached New
 POrt-SCOre 7 to 6.

Newport made it three straight from Poplar Bluff by taking the game Friday afternoon at Sports. mans park by the score of ' to 6.
 fays and Austell were in the \ ints for Newport, Wagner and Grey for the Bluff. Grey had finger hurt in the fourth inning and was succeeded behind the bat by Price.
 A good sized crowd witnessed the closing performance. The game started off fast and was played in one hour and thirty minutes. There was no kicking on the decisions of Umpire Bob Simmons, and the exhibition was one of the cleanest ever seen on the local grounds.
 Newport scored one in the first on two hits and a base on balls. Another was added in the second, two in the third and one in the fourth. Then Wagner settled down and for three innings there was nothing doing. They scored two more in the eighth and that was all of it.
 Poplar Bluff got two in the sec- ond, one in the eighth and three in their half of the ninth, but could not quite tie the score. There were no really special feat ures, just fast, snappy game of ball.
