which will be delayed pending the
settling of the dispute regarding the
right of way which at present is

the south side of the canal This

and in nearly every case included
rows of fine trees, some of them, ash,

feet of the doorways and it will be
almost necessary to move the build

Pine Bluff, April 30.-With con tract let for a big stee, office building, new hospital, the finest in the South comple ted. and a move Dn foot to bridge the Arkansas river and bring three new railroads into this city, Pine Bluff is entering on new era in her history.
 It will cost Pine Bluff $25O,- 900 to secure the three railroad lines she is seeking but it is a pessim!stic citizen indeed who doesn't believe that the money can be raised and the railroads secured. A move is also under way for taking up the project for an interburban line between this city and Little Rock, another sur vey now being in progress.
 The proposed steam roads are the Rock Island extension from here to Leola via Clio, Cleveland county; the Parker road, running to Monticello. and the Pine Bluff North and South line.
 The first road. from Pine Bluff to Leola, will be built by Jno. F, Rutherford. of Pine Bluff if $5O,- 900 stock is subscribed. He a. grees to furnish terminals and right of way in the city.
 The line to Monticello is known as the Parker Road. To get this line Pine Buff must raise S37 ,OOO and furnish right Of way and terminals in the city
 Thomas A. Bell of St, Louis is the man behind the P.no Bluff North and South line. He agrees to start work on building the road and the bridge across the river here providing $5O,OOO is raised.
 A committee of 100 prominent business men of Pine Bluff is busy today securing stock subscr D. tion for the above projects
