Completion of Telegraph Lines

Little Rock, Oct. 25.-Special General Foreman J.. C. Browne, of the telegraph department of the Iron Mountain announces the completion of the telegraph line on the Ft. Smith X Gurdon Railroad, from Antoine, to Caddo Gap, a distance of F miles. Cad do Gap is known to the railroad officials at this time as End of Track" as the contractors have arrived at this place, in their work toward Greenwood.
 Mr. Brown also announces that the work of removing the poles along the Memphis Branch between Wynne and Bald Knob has been completed. This work was taken up some time ago, and as many men as could be used to any aGvantage, were employed. The poles have been moved some distance from the track. No req
 son was given for this order when 1t was sent to the telegraph de partment, but General Superin
 tendent DeBernardi some time ago stated that this line would sooner or later be double tracked. and this is supposed to be the cause for the work at this time
 Mr. Browne has also ordered work commenced on the line which Is to connect the Natchez- Ferrlday terminals. A new wire will be strung between these two points to facilitate the handling of business. They are about eleven miles apart, and this wire will be the sole use of the company here

 The decision was not accompa. nied by written opinion, the court merely announcing the granting of the petition.
 The attorney general, for the auditor, excepted to the decision of the court in overruling the de murrer of the plaintiff to dismiss the petition. He prayed and was granted an appeal to the State Supreme Court.
 It Is the purpose of the attor. ney general to lodge transcript in the supreme court at once and ask that the case be advanced and set down for hearing as soon as is possible. He does not coincide with the opinion of the court, of course, and cannot see that the constitution, when it eX- pressly says that no appropria- tion shall be for period longer than two years, can have any other meaning than that which 1t plainly says.
