FRESH AIR FOR
 STATE CONNECTS
New Arrangement at New Peniten. tiary Gives Prisoners Opportunity To Enjoy Freedom and
 AtmOsphere.

Little Rock, Aug. 15-Thirty foot walls about penal institution add to the comfort of those who are forced | to remain inside. This is easily dem- onstrated at the new penitentiary
 Before the convicts were moved from the old state institution, those who were unfortunate enough to be safe keepers, were locked in small cells which were almost dungeons. They seldom felt fresh air and there was absolutely no companionship. At the new penitentiary it is different. With guard at every corner of the wall, there is little danger in allowing the few men kept at the penitentiary the freedom of the large yard. Will Bowman, safe keeper from Sebas
 tian county, who is under sentence of death for the alleged criminal assault of a little girl at Fort Smith, but who is being held pending an appeal to the Supreme court of the United States, is one of those who profits by the change and this man, who had not been outside the jail walls for two years until he was moved to the new penitentiary, is now allowed to go about almost as he pleases, which. is highly beneficial to his health. Had he remained incarcerated in lonely cell several months longer, there
 would perhaps have been no use for the decision in Bowman's case when it was finally rendered. Bowman committed his crime on the strip Of ground adjoining Fort Smith which formerly was a part of Oklahoma. There has been much. dispute over this valuable strip of ground, but the Supreme court will settle it for all time in the Bowman case. Oklahoma claims Jurisdiction when it comes to collecting taxes, but has never claim ed criminal jurisdiction.

GRAPHIC'S WEEKLY
 STOCK LETTER

sentiment concerning the stock market was much more cheerful this week than it has been for a lone time. ana greater confidence in coming i'm provement was felt by investors. as the result of the absence of any signs Of further liquidation.
 Better crop prospects for corn and cotton and the strength of the New 1ork banking position were the chief contributing factors to the better tone now prevailing and less was heard or unfavorable government activity. The attitude of the public is still very cautious, however, and outside business has been of small dimen siOns
 Trade report do not indicate any tendency toward improvement in the general business, although less ap- prehension of serious depression now exists as compared with a month or two since when the railroad rate dis turbance was being discussed, and fears of drastic corporate retrench- ment was restricting commercial ac- tivity in all directions.
 The demand from the West and South for money to move the crops Is about due to set in, and during the next few months will reduce the large surplus now in the New York banks, but in the present state of business generally the supply is con- sidered ample to meet demand with out any material advance in interest rates.
 There is no immediate reason for expecting increased activity on the Stock Exchange but unless liquidation Is again resumed by important inter- ests, gradual improvement appears to be in order.

It Is believed that higher prices are likely in these options before tba end Of the month as old cotton available for delivery is not believed to be suf- flclent to meet the demand.
 The latest reports from the south- west are to the effect that good rains fell in Oklahoma and Northern Tex as, but that the precipitation was still deficient in central and western sec tions where deterioration is most marked. Conflicting accounts are still coming in but it is generally conceded that last months estimates Of the yield in Texas must be consid- erably reduced. Improvement has been general east of the Mississippi. but 1t is doubted if it will be great enough this month to offset the de- terloration in the Southwest.
 Very favorable weather in all sec- tlons of the belt will be needed to in- crease the estimated yield any above twelve million bales, and the prob abilities are that some further gener- al deterioration will be experienced before the end of the season which would result in reducing the yield. At least such appears to be the atti- tude of the trade, judging from the willingness to buy around present prices and on recessions. We believe that cotton bought on reactions such as we have had this week will soon return good profits.
