 American merchants and manuiac- turers are pouring in a flood of bitter complaints to the state department over the conduct of the Japanese They complain especially of the oD- structions Japan offers to establishing Chinese customs houses in ports con- trolling Manchurian trade 1t IS freely charged that under guise of military exigencies Japanese officials are pre- venting entrance of American goods into Manchuria, while Japanese wares enter duty free
 It is not known at the state depart- ment that any steps have been taken to open Dalny to world trade, or even to residence for foreign consuls. At Newchwang, although Chinese GUS toms house is opened, the Japanese maintain control to a degree obnoXlous to American and other commercial ln- terests. Japans unwillingness to per init China to resume civil administra- ton in Manchuria is being constantly manifested While Antung has been said to be in such a disturbed condi- ton that the establishment of GUS toms house was impossible, 5000 Jap anese have settled there and Japanese goods have poured through the port duty free. The Japanese have over run Dalny and other ports.

The kinq Crab.

The king crab is a curious fellow. We might call him a second or third cousin to the true crab His first cousins, whom he resembles strongly in many points, are the scorpions and spiders. The king crab is a very old type, and, as it has an unusual amount of grit, it has successfully battled against the hardships of existence, and those living all along our Atlantic beaches today are exactly the same as the fossil ones found in Silurian deposits. Instead of having five pairs of legs, as the other crabs do, it has six pairs, like the spiders. It is the only living relative of an immense race of trilobites that once peopled 2

CARRY APPLES BY WAGON
Farmers Bring Fruit From North Arkansas
 to Little Rock
returned

Apples are being brought to Lit tie Rock from north Arkansas by wagon and peddled about the streets. In some cases the apples have been brought go and 100 miles overland. During the past few days several wagons have ar rived from Van Buren and Searcy counties. The average wagon load is about 90 bushels, and the apples are sold at 90 cents per bushel. On his return home the farmer takes a wagon load of supplies from this city.
 The lack of transpor,a faCili ties in the district north Of Little Rock leaves the farmer without a market for his fruit, unless he brings 1t overland to Little Rock. While the trip is long one, 1t is the only way that the farmer can dispose of his fruit to any advan- tage.
 Several carloads of apples from north Arkansas have also been re- ceived in this city during the past few days, and the fruit is being sold at wholesale from the cars.- Gazette.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
CONGRESSIONAL.
Q. s. Senator-Jeff Davis Congressman-C. C. Reid.
The health of Conway has al

ways been fairly good; in fact, we have been prone to boast of the healthfulness of our city. Yet we cannot escape the fact that each summer brings an increasing amount of typhoid. This is but natural consequence of the steady increase in our population, unpro- tected as we are by any system of waterworks or sewerage. Every family that locates here adds 1t quota to the amount of sewage, which is permitted to filter through the ground into the wells of sur face water that furnish us our drinking supply. As the years go by, the soil becomes more and more polluted and the water more and more impregnated with filth. That this cannot continue indefn
 itely without grave consequences, no one will deny. Inevitably there will come, under the present conditions, a terrible epidemic of typhoid, carrying with 1t the loss of many lives. Aside from the physical suffering that this epi- demic will entail, the financial loss of our property owners will be severe. People will want to move away and will be willing to sacri- flee their holding to do so. The re- suit will be that real estate values will tumble and the lifetime say ings of many will be wiped away. Conway will cease to go forward and will more rapidly fall back
 ward. This indeed a dark picture and 1t need never come true.
 But unless steps are taken for the protection of our health, 1t surely will come true, sooner or later.
 Many are ready to say that even now we have come to the parting of the ways; that, i'll short, we have reached the limit of the city's development without water works. And, though waterworks will afford some relief, if a pure supply can be obtained, in that the source of the typhoid will be cut off when unimpregnated drinking water is used, yet sys- tenn or sewerage must also be in- stalled; the filth of the city must be carried away from the city, If we are not to become contaminated by 1t. Situated as we are, the cost of these improvements will be immense. It will be a heavy burden upon the people. But without these improvements Con way is liable to stagnation, to cpl denies and depreciation of prop erty values. And with them our city will grow with leaps and bounds, our general health will be superb and our property will in- crease in value-enough, we firm ly believe, to pay all the cost of waterworks and sewerage. Some day, if nothing is done, the crisis will certainly come. Every
 one knows we would better avert it. Now is the best time to start.

Slaves Where He Spent Thousands


 A sermon may be written, if one were so disposed. on the rise and fall of young Halsey Corwin, who has been disinterred from obscurity by the re- cent theft of diamonds valued at $50 900, or thereabOuts, from his wife. His father was one of the prominent men of Brooklyn, and when he died three years ago he left the youngster more than a million dollars in cash He became known as the angel of Coney Island" You may imagine what that means. No one went thirsty who knew him. He married the young woman who now bears his name after a betrothal dinner at which $15,0O0 worth of wine was opened. He heaped rare jewels upon her and squandered his fathers fortune as though it had no end. His wife no longer recognizes his existence. He is working for S25 a month as ticket taker in the very resort where he once spent money by the thousand dollars. If any one re- fers to him, it is with laugh.

BOARD OF TRADE, NOW,
FOR BAY0NNE WOMEN
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
New York, May 9-The possibility
of board of trade composed of women
has set femininity in Bayonne, N. j.,
talking, and many stand ready to join.
The proposition to organize such
body was made at the monthly meeting
today Of the Board Of Trade by James
s. Coward, one of the most prominent
and wealthy members. Mr.. Coward is
chairman of the committee on streets
and when called upon for a report said:
81 am sick of making reports. We
have asked the council on several occa-
sions to take some action to abolish
the nuisance of fiat wheel trolley cars
on avenue G, which keep residents
awake half the night, but nothing ever
has been done to remedy the nuisance. I
do not like to be snubbed by the city Of
ficiais nor have this board snubbed. The
council regards us, apparently, as a lot
Of schoolboys. If we had as many wo-
men OIL this board as we have men, then
something for the city's good would be
accomplished in short order. I would
like to sec a woman board Of trade. -
Other members spoke in a similar
vein.

CHARGES SHE FORGED
TO OPEN JAIL DOORS
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
New York, May 9.-Revelations
which will amaze exclusively social cir
cles here resulted from the arrest of a
beautiful woman Of 80 on a charge of
forgery. The alleged crime was in
spired by love, and had for it's object
the liberation from Ludlow street jail
of Charles F. Wenham, formerly one Of
the best known railroad traffic manag-
ers in the country.
It is charged by John L. Jordan, a
notary public, the woman signed the
name Of Wenham s wife to a quit-claim
on property valued at 100000, hoping
thus to get possession Of $4,000 in cash
with which to furnish bail for Wenham.
The prisoner was recognized in the
Tombs police court as a woman who has
been welcomed in the homes of promi-
nent residents of New York, Chicago
and Toronto and who has been seen
much among wealthy Americans abroad.
She was crazed with grief because of
the position in which she found herself.
Her examination occupied more than
two hours because of hysteria, which
eliminated in six fainting spells. She
was finally committed to the Tombs in
default of 1900 bail.

Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
New York, May 9.-Shriek after
shrek, expressive of sudden and over
whelming horror, startled the diners in
the Hotel Victoria just before 7 O'Clock
last night. Patrons, clerks, telephone
girls, all who heard. rushed towards
the elevator, peered thru the grills and
still, speechless with fright and con-
sternation. In the furthest corner was
huddled the limp body Of the elevator
boy. On the floor lay a man. stretched
full length, face downward. ,..
. The dead man was Charles N Groves,
survey agent of the Mechanics In
surance company, Philadelphia.
+. D. Savage, who was in the lift,
said that as the elevator was carrying
them up Groves fell forward like a
man seized with a vertigo, so that his
head just touched the wall Of the eleva-
tor shaft, crushing his life out.
Fitzgibbons, the operator who ran the
car, tainted after the accident, and
| when he recovered he acted like a mad
man. It is feared he may go insane.
| Two detectives sent to the hotel to
| arrest, Fitzgibbons encountered Coroner
Shrady, who said he had found Fitz-
gibbons in such a state that he believes
his arrest would kill him.
