All Rewards Are Withdrawn.

On account of the depletion of funds in the state treasury, Governor Donaghey has issued an order re- seinding all outstanding offers of re- ward for the apprehension of crimi- nals. The secretary of state was di- rected to notify tie sheriff of each county in the state of this action. In cases where arrests have been made where rewards were offered and no settlements have been made, the claims will be paid. There are a few cases in which persons have been arrested when rewards were offered for their capture, but the reward is not due because convictions have not been effected. Such rewards will be paid upon conviction of the prisoners, but all other outstanding rewards have been canceled by the governors order.

MARTlNEAU SAYS THE STATE MUST PAY FOR
 THE FARM.
Issues Order Requiring State to Abide by Contract for Purchase Of the
 Cummings Plantation.

After hearing the testimony of large number of witnesses, including former members of the penitentiary board Chancellor Martineau issued a decree in accordance with the com plaint filed in the chancerY court by w. II. Miller as agent for the E. Ur- quhart estate, asking that the con- tract sale of the state farm in Lin coin county be made to conform in description 10 the intention of the parties to the original agreement of purchase. Chancellor Martineau re- garded the testimony of all witnesses as showing so clearly that the agree ment between the penitentiary board and the agent of the estate was for the purchase of only those lands in- cluded in the Cummings farm and the Maple Grove farm that inc decree was issued with little delay
 The suit grew out of the refusal of the state penitertiary board some time ago to pay the balance due on the state farm. Members of the board set up the claim that the description as contained ill the contract of sale included all of section IT in a certain township claimed by the state, and declined to pay the balance unless the farm was made to include all of this section. The agent for the es- tate contended that this was purely a clerical error in the contract and that it made the contract call for 160 acres of land that never did be- long to either the Cummings or Ma pie Grove plantations and was not embraced in the original agreement for the transfer between the estate and the penitentialy board in 1902.
 The penitentiary board he'd a spe- cial meeting after the decision was handed down by the chancellor and adopted a resolution calling upon Attorney General Norwood to appeal the case, but the attorney general re- fused to comply with the request.

Money Will Have to Be Transferred
 From Sinking to General Fund.
 Little Rock.-The question as to what the legislature will do to provide for the payment of the mileage and per diem of it's members when it meets on January 9, in view of the depleted condition of the general revenue fund, is one in which some of the statehOuse officials are unable to furnish solution.
 The cotton company which recently purchased 500 bales of the state farm cotton at Is 1-4c, has paid into the state treasury $25,000 in cash. This payment was made in accordance with an agreement between the board and the company when the cotton sale was made.
 Forty-eisht thousand dollars, which will De realized from this sale, will be paid by the penitentiary board to the general revenue fund, which, with other revenue paid into the state, will enable the state to meet the payroll of it's officials and employees up to the time when the legislature meets After that there will be no consider able amount of revenue paid into the state treasury before January 20, when the liquor licenses are due.
 When the legislature meets. with it's f35 members, there will be DO money in the general revenue fund from which they are to receive their mileage and per diem pay It will be up to the legislature to make it's payrolls, and, according to some, this will be easy.
 After the organization of the two branches of the legislature, it is ex- pected a concurrent resolution will be introduced and adopted authorizing the state auditor and state treasurer 10 transfer from the sinking fund the amount in that fund to the general revenue fund, and by So doing the members Of the legislature will get all that is coming to them There is about $92,000 now on hand to the credit of t5e sinking fund
 When this amount is exhausted, the liquor licenses, amounting to about $S5 5,000. will be paid into the state treasury, and all this will go to the general revenue fund Follow ing these payments will come the taxes and fees of the insurance com panies, which will amount to about $65, ,000.

NO ELECTION IN MISSISSIPPI COUNTY
People Didn't Very About Voting on
 November 8.

Little Rock.-Just six weeks after the congressional election, news was fece=Yed at the office of the secre- tary of state that Mississippi county held no election on November g. For some time the state department has been worrying over the fact that 1t could not find out what the official returns in some eastern Arkansas counties were in the last congression- al election. It was necessary to know the returns before making up the certificate of election for the success ful nominees.
 Two of these counties were Missis- sippi and Crittenden. A short time ago it was found that Crittenden coun- ty held no election, but still no word came from Mississippi county At length the secretary of state wrote to the election commissioners them selves, who sent back the information any election on November &, although there was a Democratic candidate for congress in the district No partic- ular reason was assigned for not hold ing the election, but it is presumed that it was from lack of interest, there being no opponent to Macon.
 At any rate, this makes it possible for the secretary of state to now make up his report and certify the returns to congress, as required by law. The vote for Macon, by coun- ties, was as follows: Clay county, 275; Greene, 321; Craighead, 3O1; Cross, 2G1 Poinsett, 219; St. Fran cis, 245; Lee, 463, Phillips, 429; Woodruff, 299.

From the relief given the general revenue fund through the advance payment of $25 900 on the state cotton recently sold, the state treasurer was able to cash d voucher fer 5000 for the State University. John E Medley, secretary of the board of trustees of the university, came down to see what could be done and represented that the school was badly in need of funds for current expenses. This will be the last that can go to the school for probably two months, unless the legislature appropriates the sinking fund to the use of the general rev enue fund.

Not to Issue the Reports.

Owing to lack of funds for printing purposes, the reports of the various departments may not be forthcoming iss pamphlet form as usual before the meeting of the next legislature. The printing funds in every department are insufficient to issue the reports, and it has been suggested that one re- port covering all departments be is sued. In the same connection, Vol ume 93, Arkansas Reports, is also de- layed and will not be issued, probably until an amount sufficient to publish 1t is appropriated by the legislature.
