DRUGGISTS AND
 DOCTORS C0MIHG

Brown of the Board of Trade this morning to a representative of the Democrat You will see among them men like Waiter Trulock and Buck Bloom, and they are very busy. They are after conventions, and if there is anything they won't promise you will have to try more than once to name 1t. l remember their work at Eureka Springs when they went after the Ar hansaw Travellers last year and were nosed out although they did make a trade for Fort Smiths influence this year. even though it has been ignored now in the fight of the Border City boys to keep a good thing when they get it. This, however, is not what I wanted to say. I wish to report excel lent progress on the part of the enter tainment fund soliciting committees. Good work is being done.
 The Medical Society has a member ship of 550 The Pharmaceutical As sociation is not quite so large, but it.' annual convention is one of the most important held in this state, Doc tors w. s. Stewart, A. C. Jordan, Will liam Crutcher. J. w. John. c M Duckworth, E. D. Luck. C. K. Car ruthers and J. ". Scales, who attend ed the convention from this city, worked hard for their home city. The nominating committee will name Pine
 Bluff today as the 1909 meeting place and the meeting has already been as sured this city.
 Although a determined effort was made by the Pine Bluff Board of
 Trade to secure the Arkansas Bank
 ers' Association convention for next
 year, and the local delegates to that meeting in Hot Springs also worked
 hard to land it. the Bankers yester-
 day decided tO meet at Little ROCK one year hence. H. L. Remmel Of that
 city was elected president of the or
 ganization. Pine Bluff and Little Rock engaged in a spirited h@ht Ill , the convention for the next meeting. The vote was B to Il in Little Rock $
 favor
 If Pine Bluff secures the l'o? meeting of the Arkansas Travellers
 which is soon to meet ill Fort Smith, and the indications are that this city will win out, Pine Bluff will bloom forth as real convention city. The Board of Trade will send delegations to every convention in the State from now on and make a bid for them all.

 Washington, May 14.-After a bit
 ter debate the Vreeland currency bill passed the House late this after noon by vote of 1S4 to 145, over 20 Republicans voting with the Demo- crats to defeat the measure. As pass ed the bill provides for the issue of currency of not over $300,- 000,000. It contains that provision of the Fowler bill authorizing the ap- pointment of a currency commission. The measure will go to a conference and the Republicans will probably ef- feet compromise between 1t and the bill.

These reports were mixed however. with others of fresh re- duction of working force in some lines, as. for example, the reported intention of the American Car and Foundry company to shut down plants in var ious states employing 15,000 men. The company's stock advanced a point in the price at the stock exchange. Penn sylvania did not share in the general strength, but this was partly accounted for by the belief that sales were being made of the stock against purchases of Reading through the same firm.
 The Rock Island securities also show ed some unfavorable effects from the heavy cut in earnings reflected by the December report.
