MONK AND RITCHEY
 LOSE THE CONTRACT
Grant County Court House Contract Is tbrogatcd By q Permanent h. junction.

Sheridan, Ark, Oct. S.-Two com- ulaints-ope a friendly suit by the Sawyer Austin Lumber Company, of Pine Bluff, and the other by EXCoun- ty Judge William Sheppard of Bel fast, this county-were filed here in chancery court last week, asking in functions to prevent the commission CTS from beginning work on the new court house, and stating that the pre- liminary steps taken by the commis- sioners were illegal. The commits sioners, through their attorneys Nix on & Shaw of Pine Bluff, and D. F.. Waddell of this city filed a demurrer to these complaints at once, and since then Judge Curl of Hot Springs has had the matter under advlsement.
 Yesterday his decision was rend- cred, stating that the chancery court had jurisdiction in the matter and that the complaints carried sufficient cause for action. This ruling virtu- ally sustained the petitioners there fore the attorneys for the commits sioners yesterday met the attorn IS for the petitioners and asked that they consent that the injunction be made permanent. The petitioners attorneys agreed to this, and a decree, by con- sent, was drawn up and mailed t.o Judge Curl at Hot Springs for his signature.
 This, of course, abrogates the coun- ty s contract with Monk & Ritchev. the Pine Bluff contractors, although the contract was declared void on mere technicality
 Bids will be advertised for at once and a new contract will be made. This new contract will be on a scrip ba- sis, and will make further litigation impossible.
 Work on the building will con- mence, it is thought, in this month.

A FREE BRIDGE
 AT ROB ROY Father Lvcy Makes sugges- tion ard Recalls a Lost
 Opportunity Here
TELLS fiC'.T TO DO IT
Says Railroad Bridge at T'Ii' Point WGIiL M,hn Mucl tn
 This City.
Editor of Graphic:

Editor of Graphic:
 In view of the fact that the matter of a bridge across the Arkansas flver at Pine Bluff is hung up for awhile, I beg leave to suggest that an effort he made to induce the Cotton Belt railway to be a party and bring their trains into Pine Bluff directly at the city.
 One railroad crossing, the Pine Bluff Bridge, is a good thing. TWO railroads crossing on the bridge is a better thing, and three railroads crossing is still better for the city. The effect of this arrangement can be readily seen at Little Rock where all railroads entering the city come over a Little Rock bridge.
 progress from the construction of the Cotton Belt railway bridge at Rob Roy, without helping Rob Roy or it's section a particle. One million dol lars lost commercially to Pine Bluff is small estimate of the blunder. According to the ncmory of the writer, something over $50,000 bonus from the citizens of Pine Bluff would have brought the bridge here. Our people were apathetic and the plant ters near Rob Roy were active and secured the prize. Had the bridge been located here the money annual ly spent by the Cotton Belt for the bettermnt of the bridge would, with an ordinary allowance from the conn- ty, have been sufficient to save the immense real estate loss caused by the waters of the Arkansas river, be- sides the fine impression which such a structure would have made on vis- iting capitalists.
 If three railroads can be united in the building of bridge at Pine Bluff, the county need not contribute much more than the franchise and could use it's funds for the acquisition of the Rob Roy bridge to be used as free highway \ free county bridge at Rob Roy with real macadam road to the south bank of the river and a mile or two on the north side would do Pine Bluff more good than a bridge at the present time at our city. In the growth of Pine Bluff free county or city bridge will be necessity, but for the present it is not so much demanded for con- mercial purposes as one at Rob Roy Threefourths of the agricultural wealth of Jefferson county lies south eastward and tributary to a bridge at Rob Roy.
 The Cotton Belt would lose noth- ing on account of trackage. as when the Altheimer branch is struck, con- Munication is at once opened with Rob Roy and the Arkansas River road. The six miles of track from Pine Bluff to Rob Roy will be use ful for the new belt line which a trolly company may inaugurate, or Tor some other purpose. It is not likely that this trackage would be- come loss to the company. l write as an old citizen and one deeply in- terested in the welfare of Pine Bluff

CRUDE PETROLEUM
PUT ON THE FREE LIST

Washington, June 2j.--Crude Pc
troleum was put ON the free list by
the Senate today. BY u vote of 40
to "a, the advocates of "A duty Of n
half cent II gallon were defeated and
the decision reached by the House
of Representatives many weeks ago
was vindicated. This vote practi-
cally precludes any possibility Of
placing n duty on crude petroleum.
The failure of the proposition TO
place duty on petroleum is de-
feat for Senator Aldrich, the first
he has suffered since the tariff
measure came before the Senate.
True, the amendment did not come
from his committee, but it was
known to have his approval, and
when his name was called, being
first on the Senate roll call, he voted
for the Penrose amendment and
thus gave Il cue to his followers.
Seventeen Republicans voted
against the amendment, including
several Of the Finance Committees
stanchest supporters. Among these
were: Crane, Dillingham;, Jones,
! McCumber, Page, Piles, Smith, of
Michigan, and Root. Hadany three
of these voted in the affirmative in
stead of the negative, the vote
would have been tied. Only two
Democrats-Ow and McEnery-
voted with the Republicans.
Senator Stone registered his vote
against the amendment, and Senator
Warner voted with Aldrich and PEN
rose.
Senators Owen and Gore, of Okla
homa, opposed each other on the
floor on the proposition. The State
they represent now is the leading
oil-producing State OF the Union.
Explaining his position before the
vote was taken, Mr.. Owen called ut.
tention to the fact that the oil in
