Statistics are given to show how great a
federal revenue would be derived il based
upon national law having provisions SINH

are 10000 motor vehicles in the United

was appointed chief examiner by the Sec
retary of State. Mr.. Elliott was for four
years secretary of the American Automo-
bile Association. He resigned from that
place in order to become secretary of the
Touring Club of America, which place he
still holds. Chauffeurs who had been in
formed by Secretary of State Koenig, in re-
sponse to their fling of applications, to re-
port to Examiner Elliott were put through
an examination similar to a Civil Service
test.
In addition to proving their ability to
operate a car satisfactorily in a con-
Gested district. they were required to an
swer technical questions in writing showing
their knowledge of the new law and of
their machines and how to make repairs
on them
The result of the examinations was not
announced. Mr.. Elliott said there would
be ample time before August 1 TO pass
upon the applications OF all chaufeurs, as
each of the sixteen licensing districts had
its own examiners
Among the benefits which Examiner
Elliott expects will result from the opera
ton of the new law will be diminution
in the number of accidents. The fact that
every motor vehicle must carry in front q
light capable OF throwing its rays not less
than two hundred feet will make known It's
approach. and the strong rear light OF suf-
ficient intensity to illuminate for fifty feet
and so placed as to shine directly on the
car number, will make Identification so easy
that drivers of cars will be constrained TO
use reasonable amount of caution
In order that strict compliance with the
provisions of the new law may be enforced
In this city the Police Department OF great
er New York will act in cooperation with
the Secretary of State. On Tuesday last
the Commissioner OF Police arranged with
Secretary Koenig to file at Police Head
quarters duplicate copies of every chauf-
feur's application, together with his photo
graph. and also the name and number of
every machine and its owner
Under this arraneement the identity of
any driver of motor vehicle who is ar
rested or complained against may be estab-
lished Immediately at Police Headquarters
without the delay which would be required
in communicating with the office OF the
Secretary of State in Albany.
All patrolmen will be familiarized with
the new badge which must be worn con-
spicuously by every chauffeur, Well as
with the provisions of the new law.
Although the chauffeurs complain OF a
license fee Of 81 a year. the great bulk of
the revenue to the state under the Callan
law will come from owners of vehicles who
are required To pay annual fee. fol-

WANTS MAIL TO
 COME IN EARLIER
Postmaster Furth Suggests Change Whereby Eastern Mail Will Get Into Pine Bluff Several
 Hours Earlier.

In an effort to bring all eastern and northern mail matter into Pine Bluff three hours in advance of the time that it now arrives, 6:10 D. m, Postmaster F'urth has written David A. Gates, director of mails at Wash ington, requesting him to have mail transferred onto the Scuthbound Cot ton Belt train at Paragould, sending the mail into Pine Bluff at 3:30 D. m., instead of 6:10.
 Under the old schedule maintained by the Pine Bluff and Western road, now part of the Iron Mountain system, this mail was brought into Pine Bluff at 2:30 o'clock each after noon. Since the company returned to the original schedule recently this mail must remain in Little Rock un- til the southbound Iron Mountain ac- commodation comes this way Post master Furth hopes to get his con- cession from the director of mails and Pine Bluff merchants will be greatly benefited by the change

SORRELLS HAS
 RETURNED HOME
Member Of the Fourth District A@ri- cultural Board BeEeyessThere Will Be a Warm Contest Over Loca-
 tion of School inf This District.

Fl Dorado, Ak, Feb. 22.-A. s. Sorrells, of EN Dorado, who is a member of the board of trustees, who have charge of locating the new az ricultural school for the Fourth dis trict, is home from meeting of the board which was held in Monticello last Thursday. There was a very warm contest over the location of the new college, but the board final ly accepted the proposition of Monti- cello, which town offered a bonus of $40,0OO in cash and 200 acres of land.
 It now seems that there will be very interesting contest yet to be decided regarding the location of the college. Fordyee-is~ protesting the decision, as they claim the president of the board, Judge James Gould of Pine Bluff, and others of the board had agreed to wait On Fordyce until Saturday for her bid There is now an effort to have the board reconsider the motion which MT Sorrells thinks will be done. Fordyce is now ready to come forward with a prineely gift and that town claimed to be the logi- cal location for the college, and A. B. Banks, of that city, retired mill lionaire insurance man, agrees him. self to give a cash bonus of $35,000, and promises to put his whole life in the work to make it the greatest agricultural school in the south He claims to have plans formulated by which he can bring 1,500 boys to the school.
 The trustees of the school are plan ming three buildings, one main structure and two dormitories at an approximate cost of $60,000.

HAMMOND SAYS
 ITS 4 JOB Discharged Patrolman De clares Overcoat Was Stol en From His Room.
PROMISES SENSATION
Says Prisoner Offered Him Money to Release Him and He Refus-
 ed to Take it.

Former Patrolman A A. Hammond. who was dismissed from police ser wee Monday night, after Chief of Po- lice E. c. Stanley heard a story of I lost pOcketbOok. which Patrolmon Ho@ue says he found in Hammond's oNefcoat pocket, declares that he is a victim of frame up" on the part CT several persons and that when he concludes an inves stigation that he is making just new to clear himself of any wrong doing, some sensation- al developments will be made known to the public and the persons who have ',jobbed'' him will not relish the results.
 Hammond admits arresting a rail- road employe for drunkenness on last Friday night. He says the prisoner offered him money to release him. but his offer was rejected. Ham, mond claims to have five witnesses to this. He says he made the prison- CT put the money back into his pock- ct and took him to headquarters.
 AS to the overcoat incident Ham, mond says he did not lose his over- coat, but that the coat was stolen from his room, over B. l.. Owens store. while he was asleep. He says when he discovered his loss he of fered ten dollars for it's return, ask ing any patrolman to find it. Ac- cording to Hammond's statement. the coat was found the next day at Vego's pool and billiard parlor by Will Vego. The latter turned the coat over to Patrolman Hogue to de- liver 1t to Hammond. The discharg- ed policeman declares that he knows nothing of the pocketbook and can not understand why it should have been found by Hogue in his coat pocket. He says the man whom he arrested for drunkenness tells twen- ty-five different stories regarding his lost pocketbook and money, but that he will eventually have to tell the truth about the matter. Ham, mond says he is willing to stand trial and he exhonorates Will Vego or Patrolman Hogue of intending to do him any wrong. He says he does not believe they are in any way connect ed with the frame up'' against him. Hammond declares that his at torneys tell him not to be uneasy: that they will spring surprise for him in a few days, after thorough investigation is made. Hammond says that he has always borne good re- putation and has never been accused of a dishonorable act in his whole lifetime.

REPAINTING THE
 UNION STATION

A crew of painters in the employ of the Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain Railway Co.,, have been in the city for the past few days, and are at work on the Union station at Fourth ave- nue and State street. The ceiling and walls of the interior of the waiting rooms have already received one coat of paint, and another will be added. The painters are under w. P. Carter, of Little Rock. The building was much improved by the painting, and when the work is finished the interior of the waiting rooms will look like new.
