MEEKS LETS ANOTHER
 CONTRACT FOR HOME
Beautiful Residence Destroyed by Fire at Warren Will Be Re-
 placed With AnOther-Dif-
 ferences in Court Settled.

Chancellor John M. Elliott this morning dissolved restraining order which was issued by Judge A. B. Grace in the Jefferson circuit court several weeks ago at the instance of Robinson Brothers, local plumbers, against the Travellers Insurance com pany, to prevent the insurance conl- pany from paying $2,300 to Sam B.. Meeks, a wealthy citizen of Warren, Bradley county Arkansas, which the insurance company wanted to pay 70 lessen a loss sustained by Meeks in a recent fire at Warren.
 Mr. Meeks partly insured hand- some new home with the Travellers and before he moved into the building it was destroyed by fire. The insur- ance company was willing to pay the loss immediately, but the local plumb CTS to protect debt for plumbing done in the burned home, secured the restraining order. The matter has now been amicably adjusted.
 AS soon as the restraining order was dissolved MT. Meeks let the contract for another handsome home to take the place of the burned residence at Warren. The contract was let to R. w. Lane of this city, the considera- ton being $9,400 witht<t the plumb ing.
 The residence which was burned several weeks ago was one of the handsomest in Southeast Arkansas and Mir. Meeks was just preparing to move into it when the fire occurred. It cost $1,000. Mir. Meeks carried only 5000 insurance, $2,50O of which was carried in the Travellers in this city.
