NO LAW AGAINST
 TRiSPASSING

Little Rock, Ark, August B. Jake Lenzinger and Frank La band, who are said to be striking machinists, and were arrested several days ago by Special Az ent of the Missouri Pacific Rail road, w. | Cruikshank, were to have been tried in Justice Doug las Heard's court this morning but the case was continued until Monday.
 The charge against them was trespassing on the property of the company, but Prosecuting Attorney Campbell said there was no evidence to show that they had trespassed as far as the law is concerned. He sai d the mere fact they were found on tho right of way of the railroad did not constitute an otfenSe in the eyes of the law, and in order to convict them of trespasSing there must be some evidence that they were there for the pur- pose of doing injury to property

O. an individual.
 He said, however. he did not know all the law, and if the case was continued until Monday and he could find any law against the act of being on the right of way, it would be his pleasure to en. force it.
 Mir. Cruikshank claims that the men were arr ested near where an engine was wrecked some weel-s ago, entailing damages in the sum of S4O0. He also claims to have found some mashed taps and other things near where the men were arrested.
 He seemed indignant that there was not law to punish the men for trespass, and made the statement that if the law did not protect the property he would see to it that trespassers were driven off with clubs in the flu ture.
 The two men under arrest de- ny that they have ever been guilty of any wrong doing, and say they are not guilty of having any mashed taps or other things of that sort. They were both re- leased on their own recogEizance.

UNCLE SAM TO REDUCE
SIZE OF PAPER MONEY?

CHICAGO, May ia special from
Washington says:
A reduction in the size of the paper
money of the United States will be made
If Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagn
accepts recommendations that will be
made to him within a few weeks by a
committee of treasury officials appointed
to investigate this and other proposed
reforms.
The object of the proposed change Is
to supply the country with a size OF
currency more convenient for handling
and to save the government $500,000 a
year in paper and engraving.
The new sized bank note to be recon-
mended is about three-fOurths as large
as the notes now in circulation. The
present notes are of a size that has been
the standard for generations.
An experiment of the advantages of the
change has been made with the Philip
pine islands currency, which is engraved
at the treasury.
The Philippine bank note is about
three-fourths the size of the American
bank note, and is extremely attractive IN
appearance.
On account of the smaller size, five in
stead of four notes can be engraved on
a page of currency note paper, and this,
in addition to the economy of paper,
means a tremendous saving.

COTTON REACHING
FOR SIXTEEN CENTS
Sharp Advance in Market
Sends May Contracts to
1872 and July to 1914

NEW YORK, May 13-There was Il
very sharp advance in the cotton mar
ket today which, coming on top of tie
steady upward movement ever since last
Monday morning. assumed sensational
proportions. May contracts. which had
sold as low as 1899 during April, touch
ed 1872 before midday, making a gain of
10 points from the closing figures OF
last night and of 173 points from the re-
cent low level.
Other months scored even greater gains
with July selling at 1874 and September
at 1899, or from 20 to 80 points above
the closing figures of last night. while
still later deliveries showed advances
ranging from II to is points.
shorts were urgent BUYERS, being in
fiuenced by reports that the bull leaders.
who seemed in no wise disturbed by the
government investigation, were meeting
with considerable success in selling theiI
COT ton taken up on May contracts and
tEGt the advancing tendency of the south
ern markets was making it more difficult
for the remaining short interest to get
cotton here for delivery during the bal
ance of May and July.
The demand for the new crops reflect
ed uneasiness as to the crop outlook
which seems to be increasing with the
approach of the first government report
for the season to be issued at noon on
June .
