DepOSitors to Help Prosecution.

X number ot depositors have raised a fund to employ attorneys to assist in the prosecution, but they have not yet announced what attorney will be retained. Smith has not yet been ar rested on the three additional war rants which were issued yesterday, but they will be served as soon as he return to the city There is still intense interest in the condition of the banks affairs and it is the sole topic of conversation on the streets and in the homes of the city, but the excitement which followed the closing of the bank has died down to cer- tain extent. The feeling was so in tense for time that fears for Smiths safety were entertained, but there is no longer any apprehension on that score

DEPOSITORS MAY
 BE PAID IN FULL
Assignees of Defunct Farmers and Merchants Bank of Lewis,iIie Give Out Cheerful Report.

Lewisville, Jan. 27.-Judge C. W. Smith, one of the assignees in charge Of the affairs of the defunct Farmers and Merchants bank of this city. last night authorized the statement that he believes the bank has sufficient collat- eral assets to pay the depositors :n full and defray the expenses incident to the winding up of the banks af- fairs. It is expected that this state ment will do much toward allaying the fears of the depositors and quiet ing the excitement into which the public was thrown by the bank fail ure. There are still many rumors to the effect that proceedings may be instituted against others connected with thet bank, but is is believed that if the opinion of the assignee regard ing the condition of the bank proves correct there will be no further de- velopments along that line.
 Assignees Complete Inventory.
 The assignees tonight completed their inventory of the banks assets. This shows the total nominal assets to be $667S7.45, while the total liabil-
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1909-01-28

itieS, according to the deed of assign ment, are $52 449.45. Judge Smith stated tonight that he believed the total collectable assets would amount to about $55 900, which would pay the liabilities and leave sufficient amout to pay all expenses. This be- lief is based, however, he explained only upon a preliminary examination of the banks affairs. and might be changed by further developments. Judge Smith declared that he was confident there would have been no necessity for the bank closing, had it not been for the loss of confidence caused by the indictment of former Cashier J. o. Smith on a charge of accessory to arson.
 To Redeem Securities Held.
 The assignees found that securities worth an aggregate of about $32,000 are held by the Bank of Commerce of Little Rock, the State National bank of Texarkana and the Consolidated National bank of New York, although the amounts due these banks aggre- gate only about $15 .00o, and they will ask permission of the court to devote the first available assets to the pay ment of these amuonts due the other banks in order that they may regain possession of the securities which they hold.
 County Treasurer Sues Stockholders.
 County Treasurer Isaac L. Dix. who
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1909-01-28

had about $6.D0u in school funds on deposit in the bank, has brought suit against all the stockholders of the bank to recover that amount, alleging that under the law all the stockhold- CTS are liable for trust funds on de- posits.
 Depositors who examined the sche- dule of assets after it was filed iii the circuit clerks office tonight were not as optimistic :; sthe assig1ars regard ing the value of the assets shown. Many of these were of the opinion that at least 50 per cent of the paper which the bank holds is worthless.
 Smith Hearing Will be Postponed.
 It is not expected that Smiths pre- liminary hearing on the charge of em- bezzlement which is set for today will be held, although no announcement has been made as to the intentions either of the defense Or the prosecu- tion. Smith was expected to return to Lewisville tonight with his attor- ney, H. $. Powell, of Camden, but they did not arrive. It is expected that they will be here tomorrow morning. Powell will be associated in the defense of Smith with Allen II. Hamiter, who ahs been acting as Smiths attorney heretofore. It is expected that the preliminary hearing will be continued. as if is not believ- ed that either side is ready to pro- eeed with the trial.

Indictment For Night Riding.

Owenton, Ky, Nov. 13.-Eight in
dictments against prominent Owen
county farmers for the burning Of the
barn of County Road Supervisor Mel
son Cunningham, were returned by
the grand jury here to-day All were
released on $1,000 bond.
Cunningham sent out recently no.
tices to all men over q in his dis
trict to appear for work on the coun-
ty roads, as is required by the State
law. Repeatedly warned that his
barn would be burned If he attempt
ed to enforce the law, he contin-
ued sending the notices.
His correspondents made good. The
basn was burned a few nights ago
and the next day almost every man
in the county appeared for work. The
wrathful Supervisor then went be-
fore the grand Jury.

Condition Of State Treasury November l.

The outstanding warrants in Ken
lucky amount to s91S,616.73 and the
deficit in the general expense fund
amounts to s3SS.167.76, SO that the
total Indebtedness of the State No
vember 1, amounts to s1,S06. 7S4.49.
There is 1892 ,5S9O5 in the Treasury,
however, as there remains in the
Sinking Fund s1S6,7269S and in the
School Fund s544,O29.SS. The large
debt owed by the State will in a
measure be reduced the first of the
year, as the settlements with Sheriffs
from the 119 counties in the State
will be made between December 1 and
the first of the year.
The large indebtedness Of the State
will doubtlessly prevent the Lgisla-
ture from making many large approp-
riations during its session the first
of the year.

$1,000 More Than Any
Previous Year.

From the standpoint of exhibits,
attendance, receipts and profits, The
1909 State Fair, was the most sue
cessful ever held in the history Of
Kentucky. The report of j.
w. Newman, secretary Of the fair,
which was submitted at a meeting
Of the State Board of Agriculture,
Forestry and migration in Louis

not only was the fair successful from a
financial standpoint, but aroused more
interest throughout Kentucky than
any fair yet held.
The net receipts for the fair this
year were s1s,36O.SS, while the highest
amount Melted before by the fair was
$13,264.52,the profits thus showing an
increase OF $6.096.31. The total at
tendance during the fair was 104,942,
with Thursday as the banner day OF
the week. On this day the attendance
reached the record-breaking figures of
1854.
The fact that the exhibits this year
we're larger and of higher charac-
ter than ever before is also emphasize

Fair maintained its reputation for

Another feature Of the report is

lighting the big pavilion. 1t is stated
that the admissions to the night show
amounted to $4,000.
