INSANITY PLEA
 MAY BE FAILURE .f Double Hanging Will Result if Pardon Board Does Not Grant Communication of Pennsylvania Negro.
M UGH CURIOSITY
Displayed ill Hanging-Attendance Is Limited-BOth Killed Wiyes-Scaf- fold Ready and Win Be Used for the First Time--Reading Bibles.

Pittsburg, Pa. July 17.-A plea of temporary insanity will be urged in behalf of Angelo Jackson, a negro murderer, at meeting of the pardon board today, when attorneys for the black assassin will attempt to secure a communication of his sentence from death to life Imprisonment. Should this move fail, there will be double hanging here next Tuesday, when Jackson and Bowling Green, also col ored, will be swung into eternity from the same gallows.
 Never before has such morbid curiosity in hanging been evidenced in Pittsburg, hundreds of people hav' ing applied to Sheriff Gumbert for permits to see this double execution. Tn accordance with the state law all |of these must be denied, the only per sons privileged to witness a hanging in Pennsylvania being the sheriff and his deputies, the coroner, the execution jury, county physicians and not more than two ministers.
 The scaffold on which the two men are to be hanged is in readiness. It is a new steel affair and will be used for the first time Tuesday. Sheriff Gumbert will personally spring the trap, as required to do by law.
 Jackson was convicted of the mur- der of Gertrude Nichols, a negro wo- man, on October 25, 1905. He was temporarily insane from the excessive use of liquors at the time and this will be urged in the effort to have his sentence commuted at today's hearing. Bowling Green shot and killed his wife, Jennie Green, because he believ- ed she was unfaithful to him.
 The two black men are unconcern- edly awaiting the march to the gall lows next Tuesday morning. They show little interest in the prepar2 tions that have been going forward for their hanging, although both have long since professed religion and re- pented for their crimes. Most of their time is spent in reading the Bible.

B|G FIRE TODAY
 IN LITTLE ROCK Mammoth Plant of the Gulf Compress Company Burns With a Total Loss of Over $300,00o.
STILL BURNING
Was Only Compress in Little Rock Not Controlled by St. Louis Compress Company-Origin of Fire Unknown Insurance $25O,00O.

Little Rock, Ark, July IT, (Special) )-The entire plant of the Gulf Compress Company, valued at more than $30O,00O, was complete ly destroyed by fire this morning. At the time of the fire there were more than 5000 bales of cotton in the building, and these were com pletely destroyed as we'll as the en- tire plant of the company. The in- surance on both the cotton and the plant will amount to about $25O,- 900.
 The fire was discovered this morn ing at about o'clock, and it was we'll under way before the fire de- partment reached the scene. The fire ragged for several hours before it was completely under control but the cotton still continues to burn. The origin of the fire is unknown, though several efforts have been made to find a reason for the fire.
 The whole building was complete ly wrecked, and if the company re. builds it's plant, as it is supposed it will, the whole thing must be en- tirely new, as hardly any part of the old building can be used again.
 This was the only compress in this city not owned by the St. Louis Compress Company, and the loss of this plant. which can hardly be rebuilt before time for this sea- sons cotton crop, will leave this rival company no competitions at all. The St. Louis Compress Cor,peny is ,heavlly >,inthrested in compresses all over the state, and oWns at least one in nearly every cotton market in the state, among them, Pine Bluff.
 The firemen have been at work all day, extinguishing the fire in the smouldering cotton, bur 1t seems that the cotton will continue to shoulder for several days. All the fire departments were present at the fire and though the fire boys worked hard. the flames had gain"d such a headway before the alarm was turned in that none of the cot ton could have been saved.
 When asked this morning the representative of the company m this city stated that they had not decided yet whether the company would rebuild or not, but 't IS generally thought that work will start shortly, for the Gulf Compress Company enjoyed large trade while operating it's plant in tnls city.

at Forest Park cost 25 cents to see at Wilmington Park ill Hot Springs. Daniel Boone, the Kentuckian" big show in itself is the picture that S attracting no little attention at Forest Park this week, with others. Large crowds are at the Park night ly.
 The splendid new program at Forest Park is the subject of much favorable comment. The clear and graphic manner in which the 5000 feet of choice new motion pictures are shown makes this entertainment of unusual interest and merit.
 The entire program is new, con- posed of the very latest and best products of the ever increasing pie ture output. Scenes laughable, edu- cational and of tue deepest interest in every conceivable manner are made possible by the motion pie tufe devices and the cunning of modern photography. The motion picture has come to stay, as the greatest of all entertainment and instructive features. It is growing apace and is, to great extent, eclipsing all other classes of stage attractions.
 The motion pictures as seen at the park are different-so different that one is startled, almost, into the belief that the actual scenes are be- ing enacted before them. All the discomfort of flickring and dimness are gone. The acts and scenes stand for with baffling reality at the Park.

MESSRS. SCHAEFER
 AND AIMS ARRESTED
Pastor of First Baptist Church of Hot Springs and Editor of Bulletin Are Again Before Judge
 Sumpter.

Hot Springs, July 17.-For stating three reasons why he would rather go to jail than pay a $25 fine for con- tempt of court, Rev. w. T. Amis, pas tor of the First Baptist church, was today again placed under arrest, while R. O. Schaefer, editor of the Citizens Bulletin, who was sent to jail with Mir. Amis before, was again arrested for publishing Mir. Amis' reasons ill the "jail edition" of the Bulletin, edited from behind the bars.
 County Judge Orlando H. Sumpter issued the order commanding Messrs. Amis and Schaefer to be placed under arrest and to be brought before the court at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The order was served on MT. Schaefei' at quarter to 3.
 MT. Amis could not be located by the deputy, but will appear in court tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, ac- cording to his statement to the Ga zette's correspondent The court per- mitted 1sr. Schaefer to go on his own recognizance.
 The substance of the statement by MT. Amis which caused his arrest was as follows:
 "I go to jail for three reasons. The fine was unwarranted, considering the facts in the case. In the second place the court has ignored all along con- temptuous filings of the other two daily papers. Why should exceptions be taken to our case? In the third place I consider the fine the work of the dirtiest, smuttiest political gang that ever disgraced municipality. ] consider this fight one between the right and the good people on one hand and the wrong and the gamblers, thieves, ballot-box suffers and few deluded ones on the other. The fight is on to a finish. Whether in jail or out of it I am here to fight the gang that has robbed me of my political liberty"

Jlash Expected in Central America, Starting Off With a Curtain Raiser by Salvador and Nicaragua.
TURNING THE TABLES
Nicaragua to Be Defender Instead of Aggressor-Gen. ChamOrro to Be Declared Provisional President Zelaya and Cabrera Matched. gSa%

Mexico City, July 17-Official and iplomatic circles in this capital were really excited today by the report nat a general outbreak of hostilities 1Central America is likely to occur rithin the next 15 days. The news cached here from Salvador in the orm of a cablegram to the Associated 'ress. The dispatch was as follows:
 HAn armed clash, which it is believ- dwill involve all of Central America, vill probably occur within the next 5sdays. It is reported that the first Iattle will occur between the forces fsSalvador and Nicaragua. Gen. Lee 'hristmas, an American who was wounded in the recent war between Nicaragua and Honduras, has been ap ointed as general in command of a alvadoran regiment.
 ~ Eeneral Chamorro is expected in ' eemala on the next ship. Upon y<Rrrival he will probably proclaim
 self provisional president of Nic- aagua.
 '@sThe state department and the va 'ious legations were visited by the correspondents of the Associated Press, but at none of the places had Micial news of the outbreak been re- :eived"
 It was learned that General Cham pro, who is named as the probable successor of General Zela.'a of Nica- .agua, should the allied foices prove victorious, is member of one of the oldest, wealthiest and best known antilles in Nicaragua. Of late, how ,ver, he has lived in Salvador, and it s believed that he was sent to Guate- nala by President Figueroa of that country.
 Minister Giron of Guatemala declar- ,d that his country had long been pre- ,aring to defend itself against an at :acss, by Zelaya, but said that he was lot aware that an offensive alliance ,xisted between Guatemala and Sal ,ador. In the event of hostilities, he aid Guatemala could place 5000 we'll !rmed troops in tbe field, and these nen would be oficered by military ixperts from the United States and Iurope. He admitted that the Hon. uran government was hostile to Ze- ava, saying that the latter had ex- cted an indemnity from them at the nd of the recent war. As the gov rnment was unable to pay this in ash, Minister Giron declared that resident Zelaya confiscated the pro- ,erty of many rich men of the repub- ic,. hence the bitter feeling against ;elayar.
 Dr. Manuel Sanchez, the newly-ap- ointed minister to Mexico, said he did ot believe the report, but immediate telegraphed his government for onfirmation.
 It is thought here that the much eralded struggle for supremacy in .aptral America is about to be waged
 ezelaya of Nicaragua and Cabrera
 Wuatemala will be the real antag- lbnists, the other Central Americans Involved being merely pawns to be hsed by the two men who seek mas tery over all Central America. | According to the wording of the eablegram, it appears probable that Salvador, Guatemala and certain Forces in Hondurs have united to fight Nicaragua and drive Zalaya fpom the Ibresidential chair.
