EQUIVALENT TO A CONFESSION
Caldwell & brakes Injunction
Proceedings so Regarded.
Efor. by Contractors to Prevent Tests of
State Capitol Shows They are
Weakening.

Little Rock, March Especial.
Arguments were today taking
place in the chancery court before
Chancellor Martineau on the re-
straining order asked for by Cald-
we'll & Drake to prevent further
tests being made OH the floors OF
the new state capitol building.
Judge J. W. Blackwood is repre-
sentiug the plaintiffs, and Attor
ney General Hal L. Norwood is
looking after the interests of the
state. Both argued the APP
plication for temporary relief as
though it was upon the injunction
becoming permanent.
Considerable surprise was eX-
pressed yesterday that the injunc
ton should be asked for, as it is
considered a weakening on the
part of the capitol contractors and
pract cal confession of the charg
es preferred by Gov. Donaghey.
Members of the capitol commission
and close friends of George w.
Caldwell urged him not to bring
the suit or apply for the restrain
ing order, but he would not listen
to them, saying he was being
wronged and was willing to fight
the matter out III the courts and
let them settle the question. He
says that in every instance the
state has since the work was
stopped, endeavored to rub it in
on him, and he will no longer sub
nit to it.
Mr.. Caldwell says the tests are
unfair, and suck would continue
as long as he would permit, to the
detriment of the building, and he
will not stand for it the courts will
respect his rights. He states that
the state made tests of the floors
two years ago a1d they were found
to be all right, and it if would not be
fair to him to have the floors
which have been damaged seri-
ously by exposure, through the
fault of the state, put to the same
tests they were then. Mr.. Cald
we'll says he is willing to have the
unchanged floors put to any test
the state may exact, but he wants
someone with authority to do it,
not engineers selected by the house
alone.

Mothers Day.

Mothers Day, next Sunday,
will be observed generally. Last
year was the first time the idea OF
setting apart such day was put
in practice. 1t is expected that
thousands will wear white carna-
tions. The idea was originated
by Miss Anna Jarvis of Philadel-
phia. The general idea of the
day is that every person should
wear white flower in honor of
his mother and that if his mother
is living he shall visit her, if pos
sibie, but if not to telephone, tel
egraph or write her.

These are all underground men.
The company are fixing to close
the mines as they have hundred of
cars of ore ready for treating,
enough to run six months. They
will grant no concessions so they
say. This belt has been our best
trade but is dead now. None OF

Mark Penn's $ House Burns

Mark Penn's house, on his
farm about one-hatf mile from
Danville was destroyed by fire,
last Saturday, May, fst. 1t was
insured by the Farmers and
Laborer's Mutual Insurance Co. Of
Montgomery County for $500. on
building and 500. on contents,
Monday the loss was adjusted by
L. d. Mudd, Pres. of the Company
and on Tuesday he was paid in
full, the amount of the insurance
carried on the property. The
farmers Mutual is always prompt
in paying its losses.
The Montgomery tribune. (Montgomery City, Mo.) 1892-1910, 1909-05-07

had about 5000 insurance.
In the meantime the valiant vol
unteer fire brigade was fighting
persistently and to good effect.
The opera house building was
brick structure, and, with the
steady streams of water from the
two sections of hose plying con-
stantly on the most dangerous
spots, the flames experienced diff
ficulty in penetrating the brick
wall. A hole was cut in the roo;
of the Locke building, and a
stream of water directed through
the opening soon nipped in it's in
cipiency the fire which had crept
through the wall adjoining the
opera house building.
Thus, by hard work, and the fact
that the buildings were all of
brick, the flames were permanent
ly checked-with only the com
plete destruction of the operaa
house building. By noon the ruins
were smoldering, and the adjoin-
ing business houses were saved.
The heaviest sufferers were Jas.
Ferguson and the Cason brothers.
All of the opera house fixtures
were totally destroyed. Mr. Fer
guson, who ownedt he building,
| estimates his loss at something
like $4,000. He had only $4,000 in
surance.
Cason Bros. had $1,000 insurance
and their stock invoiced at some
thing over $500.
When it was thought that the
block would likely go, an appeal
for help was SEM to Wellsville
and the fire department there re-
sponded nobly. They brought
down their two chemical fire en-
gines, but the fire was already
under control when they arrived
They pulled the heavy engines
down here in just an hour.
