PREPARING fGR THE PEN.
fx.Senstor Butt Expected to Surrender
 Monday.

Little Rock, Dec. 28.-Esom advices received by friends ia this city it is lei 1T red that former State Senator Festus o. Butt, recently convicted of bribery dur ing his connection with the legis- ture for the alleged payment of a bribe to K. K. Adams, will sur render Monday to the Supreme court. MT. Butt has written friends that he is ready to begin his sentence and in all proba ability, he will arrive in the city before that time to make preparations for his term in the penitentiary. MT. Butt, after being convicted of bribery in the Perry circuit court, appealed to the Supreme court of the state and that body sustained the verdict of the lower court. Former Senator Butt, under the terms of the sentence must pay a fine of $200 and serve two years in the penitentiary. The rules of the Supreme court allow him fifteen days iu which to file motion for rehearing of his case. This would give him until January 1, 1907. As the Supreme court will meet Decem- Der 31, only one day before, it is expected that Mr. Butt will sur render at that time. He is the first leg gislator in Arkansas to be convicted and sent to the peni
 tentiary. Ex-Senator Butt still stoutly protests his innocence.

MINNESOTA BEGINS SUI
State will Try to Prevent Issue of Now Stock by Great Northern
 Railroad.
A PERMANENT INJUNCTION ASKED FOR
The Court Is Also Asked to Restrain the. Officials From Proceeding in Any Manner to Collect Amount Due on subscriptIons-Th Bill of Complaint.

St. Paul, Dec. 27.-Attorney-General Young of Minnesota, Wednesday be- gan an action against the Great North ern railroad to prevent the issue of $60, 100000 of new stock recently authorized by the board of directors.
 A permanent injunction against the company, its officers, agents and ser wants is asked for, restraining them from proceeding i'll any manner with the proposed issue and from collecting amounts due on any subscriptions therefor or from taking any action to carry out the plans of the stock issue until the company shall have made application in writing to the railroad and warehouse commission of Mime sota and procured it's consent to that issue. It also asks for a temporary injunction pending all litigation.
 The bill of complaint recites that the Great Northerns original author ized capital stock was $30.000,000, that being the limit fixed by it's charter and that between February l, 1890, and March 1, 1896. the defendant made several large increases of stock until on March l, 1906, it's capital stock ag- gregated substantially s150.000,000. That all increases were first made without application to the state rail- road commission as required by law; that defendant has determined 10 again increase it's capital stock, this time to $2lO,O00,U0v, rs-sa--...s.l.Lalaars having been invited to subscribe for their pro rata of same and that no application has been made to the state railroad commission
 The attorney-geheral contends that unless such proceedings are restrain ed, not only will the state be deprived of Investigating the propriety and pur- poses of the issue but that the com pany proposes to pay the same div idends at rate of ' per cent on the increased as upon the present. capital ization, thus increasing the fixed an- nual charges of the defendant by the sum of $4,2o0,Ooo, a great portion of which will have to be paid by the roads Minnesota patrons.
 The Great Northern officials were served with the papers ih the case Wednesday afternoon.

DUE ID GAR SHORTAGE
Lack of Transportation Facilities Has Bad Effect on Business
 of the Country.
ROADS UNABLE TO COPE WITH SITUATION
Marked Decline Shown In Move ments of important Staples Dur ing November According to Dc partment of Commerce and Labor Largest Losses In Grain Receipts.

Washington, Dec. 29.-The car shortage problem has had it's influ- ence upon the movement of internal commerce during the past month. According to a statement issued Fri day by the bureau of statistics of the department of commerce and labor.
 While the statement declares 1t is impossible to determine to what ex- tent inadequate transportation facili- ties affected the movement of grain, live stock, meat products and in some localities, lumber and coal, in Novem- Der. it says it can undoubtedly be af- firmed that they would have been much heavier had the railroads been fully able to cope with the situation.
 A marked decline is shown in move ments of certain important staples when compared with November of last year but an increase of the eleven months of the present year. The total live stock receipts at seven interior primary markets during November aggregate 3,534,117 head, falling off of about 300,000 head from the same month last year.
 For the II months of the present year like arrivals aggregated 37,442,- 129 head compared with 37,0S9,7O7 head for the like period in 1905.
 A considerable falling off is shown in shipments of packing house pro ducts from Chicago during November there being total of ,21S,110,712 pounds against 296,060,362 for the same period in 1905.
 The most noticeable decline is shown in receipts of grain, the total figures for 15 interior markets during November having been 75,779,424 bushels showing falling off of over IT ,500,0o0 bushels in November, 1905.
 For the II months of the present year grain receipts aggregated 722,- 9b4,S71 bushels, exceeding the like months in 1905 by more than 11,5O0,- 900. Decreases which occurred in the receipts of wheat, barley and rye were offset however, by an increase n the receipts of corn and oats.
 Domestic cotton sight receipts dur ing November amounted to 2,392,390 pounds against 2,193,S96 in November of last year. November shipments of anthracite coal from eastern produc- ing regions totalled 5,182.153 tons compared with 5,421, ,5S4 in November, 1905.
