SPEEDY TRIALS FOR
 { ANTITRUST SUITS.
lrosecutions Under New Logan 1 Law May Be Finally Deter
 ' mined in May.

Little Rock, March 28. The
 Tti-trust suits against the Hart ord and the German Alliance Insurance companies, filed yes- |terday afternoon in the second division of the Pulaski circuit court, have not yet been set, but it is expected that they will be set for an early hearing.
 The defendants may waive the twenty days provided to answer or demur and consent to a speedy trial. It is expected that the suits will be appealed without delay and advanced in the su- preme court as affecting public interest, so that a final determi- nation may be had early in May.
 L. B. Leigh & Co.,, agents for the German Alliance, announce that they did business for the company only on Saturday and will write no more, their only purpose being to violate the law.
 On the other hand, the Hart ford is writing all the business that is offered and Attorney General Rogers and co-counsel announce that a suit will be filed against the company daily so long as it continues business in the state.
 The suits filed against the Hartford and the German Ali ance yesterday are identical, ex- cept that in the one against the Hartford the phrase made else where" is added to the descrip- tion of the trusts, pools, com- bines," etc., prohibited by the act. These two suits will, there fore, raise all the issues in the controversy, including that of the extra territorial feature.

STEWART TO SUCCEED
 CULPEPPER AS CHIEF.
Pine Bluff Mayor Will Appoint New Man to Succeed Officer Courts Said Was Entitled
 to Hold Place.

Pine Bluff, March 28. A. J. Stewart will be the next chief of police of Pine Bluff, and will en- ter upon the duties of the office after the election in April and his qualification before the city council.
 This announcement was made this morning by Mayor H. King White, with whom the appoint ment lies, and MT. Stewart also authorizes the publication of the appointment.
 The question as to whom the mayor would appoint as chief of police upon entering his second term as mayor has been one that has met with much discussion and many guesses.
 MT. Stewart will succeed J. F. Culpepper, who has served for the past two years. Since the time Mayor White and MT. Gull pepper had their first disagree ment over a year ago and MT. Culpepper was removed from office twice upon reasons stated by the mayor, it has been sur- missed by many that he would not again be an applicant for the position in case Mayor White re- ceived the Democratic nomina- tion.
 Culpepper's term of office has been stormy one, but at the same time he has given entire satisfaction in the office, and even the mayor has been heard to com- pliment him. His removal from office was upon technical grounds which were fully stated at the time.
 The council refused at the time to. uphold the mayor, and after a long suit in the courts, the matter going from the lower courts to the supreme court to be finally passed upon, MT. Culpep- per was declared to legally hold the office for the full term of his appointment.

The steam shovel which has been engaged in taking gravel from the pit in the edge of White riv- CT at Cotter for the ballasting of the track, will be removed to Or egon Flats this week to be used in the work there. It is the in- tention of the company to com plete the White river line by August 1, and to this end work will be pushed on the extension to the north from Cotter.
 HEAVY RAILS ON HELENA BRANCH.
 For several weeks a gang of men has been at work on the Helena branch of the Iron Noun tain replacing the old rails with new 90-pound steel rails. The work has now been completed from Knobel to Wynne and the steel train started out from Wynne Monday distributing the heavy rails along the line to the south from Wynne. This work is in preparation for through trains and heavy traffic between St. Louis and New Orleans as soon as the Memphis, Helena & Louisiana is completed.

RAILROAD RUMBLfNGs.

CUTTING CROWLEY RIDGE GRADE. The work of reducing Crow ley's Ridge on the Memphis Short Line of the Iron Mountain has begun in earnest. Monday the telegraph department cut in an office at this place, says the Lit tie Rock Democrat, in order that the operators can keep in close touch with the management.
 Crowley's Ridge has been an eyasore to the officials and some time ago it was determined to cut it down. The telegraph poles were removed from the cut pre- paratory to the work of the steam shovel, but for some reason best known to the management, the work was postponed, and finally practically abandoned.
 This work will bring the Mem phis Short Line to a standard grade of sixteenths of one per cent, a great saving over the present grade. The present grade is one per cent, which makes it necessary either to double the hill as it is called, or to use a helper engine, as is the custom in freight trains leaving union station in Little Rock. With the cutting down of the hill, trains can proceed to Memphis from Little Rock without the great de- lay incident to this extra work at Crowley's Ridge.
 BEGIN WORK AT COTTER.
 Announcement is made that the engineers of the Missouri Pacific Iron Mountain will arrive at Cotter one day this week to lay out the site for the round house and shops. At the same time it is stated the passenger station will be definitely located. Since the bad weather there has been little done at Cotter in the way of completing the terminals.
