COTTON ADVANCES.

New York, May 14.-Predicted on the idea that the next crop is to be a short one, speculation has suddenly revived and lifted prices over $3 a bale within few days. Texas was one of the largest factors i'll the advance
 The season in that great state is believed to be very backward and bull operators contend that there is no possibility of it's rais- ing a crop of the requisite size their belief being that this year will witness a recurrence of what has so often taken place in the past-namely, a small crop fol- lowing a big one. At the same time they believe that the con sumption this year is likely to reach record-breaking propor- tions. Indeed in a nutshell it is case of supply and demand, or in other words a belief that there will be deficient supply to
 meet an extraordinary demand. The weather in the cotton belt has been for the most part dry and east of the Mississippi the out look is said to be far from uni formly favorable, although the prospects there seem considerab-
 y better than in the Southwest.
 The spot markets have been advancing. even if not every where active and it is worthy of remark, too, that woo, has been active excited and higher. The steady improvement in the iron and steel trade is also noted with interest as encouraging the be- lief that general trade in this country is improving. One of the things, too which has contributed not little to the confidence of the bulls is the belief that the government report that is to appear on June 3, estimating the acreage and describing the early

of 1Oubt that the young men had had no connec tion with the mur- der although they had left Cam den a short time after the man was killed and had beaten their way to Pine Bluff on top of a car. Unused to riding in such a place one of them suffered from a ,profuse nose bleed. They estab- lished an alibi covering every minute from the time of the trag- edy until they left Camden, by local witnesses. One of the young men had worked some days for a Camden newspaper. They were B, R. Cain, son of the Chief iof Po,k ice of Waynesboro, Tex, and s. Smith. They were beating their way from Texas to St. Louis, chiefly for adventure. And they found it. The negro M, J, Hall who had a hearing before the coroner Wednesday was arrested last Sunday after having made conflicting statements to explain his presence in Levy's store short ly before the tragedy.

MURDER MYSTERY.

CaE.den, May 15.-The mystery attending the murder of Nose Lew the aged Confederate vet eran whose body was discovered week ago tonight in his little store near the Cotton Belt tracks continues to be matter of absorb ing interest as the days go by. Developments have followed thick and fast in the case and the morning following the tragedy 1t was thought that Levy's s.ayers had been caught red handed, but the circumstance which had ap- peared to point conclusively to the guilt of the young white men arrested developed to be only the results of a strange chain Of CO., incidents.
 At nine o'clock last Saturday night Leyy's wife started to their little store nearby to see what detained her husband, a man or 65 years of age. He had answer ed her call short time previous when she summoned him to sup per saying, that he would come in few minutes. She found his body lying in a pool of blood which had come from two knife stabs. in his neck
 The following morning two young men were arrested on top Of a passenger train coming in- to Pine Bluff. The shirt Of one was bloody. When questioned they admitted having come from Camden. The young men were well dressed and wore diamonds In Jail one of them when allowed to read a newspaper clipped the story of the tragedy from it. It was thought beyond a question ol a doubt that guilt vcould be fastened upon them However when the coroner investigated it was proved beyond a possibility

TWO NEW AMENDMENTS

TWO proposed constitutional a. mendments twill be voted upon at the next general elestion.
 One will be the question of hav- ing the initiative and referendum in Arkansas and the other the question of eXempting from tax ation for the next 10 years all money that is invested in ma chinery for the manufacture of cotton or cotton fiber, the money to be exempted for a period tof seven years. The latter propos- ed amendment is provided for in "a resolution by Warnock of Col umbia, which was adopted by the recent legislature. The first pro- posed amendment is provided for in a resolution by Senator Ar mold ,also adopted. Each legisla- ture is allowed to adopt three joint resolutions providing for constitutional amendments but only two were adopted at the re- cent session.
 Under the initiative and refer endum proposed amendment eight per cent of the legal voters of the state could propose any leg isla tion ,by petition, the latter to set forth in full the measure pro- posed! The initiative shall be fil- ed with the secretary of state not less than four months before the election at which they are to be submitted.
 The second power, the referen- dunn may be ordered (eXcept as to laws necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health and safety) by petition signed by five per cent of the leg al voters or by the legislative as- sembly as others are enacted, The resolution also, provides fur ther that the referendum peti- tion shall be filed with the sec retary of state within 90 days after the final adjournment of the legislature that all elections shall be held at the general eiec- tion, except when a special e!ec- tion is ordered and also thattthe power of the veto of the govern or shall not extend to the meas ures adopted by the people.
 The purpose of the first pro- posed amendment is to encourage cotton and cotton fiber manufac- ture in Arkansas and the purpose of the second is to give the peo- pie the opportunity to propose and reject such legislation as they see fit. As an example rail- road employees under the initia- tive and referendum would be able to reject any Legislation that they might deem injurious to their interests and of unusual benefit to the railroad interests the per cent of legal voters re- quired to bring about a referen- dunn or mia tive a question: being small enough to allow almost any class of laborers or citizens to call for referendum or to init iative question of legislation.

SAMPSON TRIAL OPENED
Young Woman Accused Has Great
Faith Of Her Acquttal

Lyons. n. Y, April 5-The work of
selecting the jury which is to- sit in
judgment over the fate of Mrs. Geor-
gia Allen Sampson, placed on trial
here today, charged with the killing
last November of her husband, Harry
Sampson, was completed when court
adjourned today after an entire ses-
sion devoted exclusively to the exam
ination of talesmen.
The young defendant robed in full
mourning expressed herself as pleas
ed with the men who will weigh the
evidence of her guilt or innocence
and again declared her belief that she
would be freed. Throughout the days
proceedings she sat unmoved and dis
playing no apparent interest in the
case.
Her father, Frank Allyn. sat with
her during the sessions, while on her
left was her constant companion, Miss
Theresa Collins, daughter of Sheriff
Collins. Mrs. Allyn, mother of the
defendant, is Ill at her home but will
be able to appear as witness in
the case.
All but three of the IL jurors who
will try Mrs. Sampson are farmers
and are from various parts of Wayne
county. None of them comes from
either Macedon, where Sampson was
killed, or from Palmyra, the home of
the Sampson family. Spectators in
court noted the absence of members
of the Sampson family at the trial

over the outcome of the trial but has
declared: Il am innocent and that's

FIRE WAS SET
Blaze at East Barre Destroys $4,000
Worth Of Property.

Barre, April 5.-Fire early this
morning destroyed the stone sheds of
Bianchi Bros, occupied by the World
Granite Co, at East Barre, and the
general opinion in that place seems to
be that the fire was of incendiary orr
gin. The loss is estimated at nearly
$4,000 and there was insurance of
about 5000.
The fire was discovered little af-
ter 2:30 o'clock this morning by Mrs.
Charles Davenport and her husband
who aroused the neighborhood and
called out the East Barre fire depart
ment. When first discovered the shed
was all ablaze and the efforts of the
department to save the property was
futile. Their efforts, therefore, were
directed to the surrounding property
and to throwing water on the safe in
the office of the burning building
to keep II from getting too hot and
being destroyed as 1t contained all
the books and papers of value belong
ing to the company.
The sheds which are the property
of Charles Bianchi & Son. were
valued at $4,000 and the property had
been repaired recently.
1t is not known here just who is
suspected of setting fire to the sheds
but there has been some trouble with
the employees recently.
