lRESPASSING
On {. A. & c. Railroad Tracks
To Be Stopped
Detective Martin Here To
Enforce The Order

Since the accident, In which Mr..
Jacob Horn met death on the c., A.
& G. railway, great effort is being
made by the company to keep the
track clear Of persons and thus re.
duce the danger of trespassers being
killed by trains. Detective Martin
stated on Wednesday morning that
extra efforts will be made and that
all persons are warned not to walk
along the tracks. In the past two
years, over 600 trespass notices have
been served by Detective Martin but
even these notices have not been
needed by some of tho persons on
whom they were served. 1t is thought,
however, that after this time, the per-
son who have been making practice
OF walking the track, will find some
other means Of reaching their desti.
nation.

Elliott Rules That Mrs Vim son and Daughter Should
 Have Big Estate
IS WORTH $1OO,OOO
Administrator Would Appoint Trustee Indefinite Provision of
 Beine.

Judge John Nj. Elliott, in the lief
 ferson chancery court, yesterday con-
 strued the will of Howard Beine, tft
 wealthy merchant of Des Arc, Prair
 ie county, Arkansas, who G;ed two
 years ago, leaving $100,000 worth G
 property to his aunt, Mrs. Carrie Yin
 son, and her daughter Bennie Yin
 son, and held that they were entitled
 to the property. The administrators w. 1. Beoe, of Des Arc, contested theil right to have possession of the estate and h!s attorney, w. A. Leach, an nounced that he would carry the cele- brated will case to the Arkansas Su- preme Court.
 The case, which was heard by Judge Elliott in chambers, is one oi the most noted In the recent court re. cords of this district. Beine, who had only two relatives at his death, Mrs. Vinson and her daughter, left a will in which he bequeathed all of his property to them. A provision in the will however, read that after theis death the money and property should be used for charitable purposes" but no definite institution CT. society was hamed as beneficiary after the dea h of the two first named benefieiaries.
 Congressman Joe T. Robinson and Former Speaker Epps Browa,, of the House of Representatives, appeared fo- Mrs. Vinson and her daughter They were resisted by the admimstra- tor. through Attorney Leach, who contended that the wiE provided that Booe, as administrator, should appoint a trustee to handle the: estate. He argued that the trustee: should give the two beneficiaries $E200 a year during their Lifetime.
 Judge Elliott decided the case im- after hearing the argument of tfa opposing attorneys He con- tended that the indefinite provision in the will, Charitable purposes, did not justify the claims of the adminis- trator and that the aunt and her daughter are entitled to the entire es- tate, under the will itself. Howard Beine. at the time of his daath, was a member of the firm of Haihy,, Befne X Company, of Des Arc.

FIGHT PICTURES BANNED
CHIEF OF POLICE AT WASHING
TON ISSUES EDICT.
Declares That Illustrations Are An In
centive to Crime; Put Down as
Immoral Display.

Washington, July G.-No pictures of
the Jefries-Johnson prize fight will be
exhibited publicly in the District of
Columbia. This dictum has gone forth
from Major Richard Sylvester, chief of
police, and also president of the In
ternational Police association. In tax
ing his stand, Major Sylvester called
attention to the fact that this asso-
citation of police chiefs at its last
meeting at Birmingham, Alabama,
unanimously adopted "a resolution of
fered by William y. Pinkerton in
which two hundred police chiefs in the
United States subscribed to the asser-
ton that moving pictures which were
of such character as tend to in
crease crime corrupted public morals
and as such should be suppressed.
Pictures Under Ban.
''Ihe newspaper reports from Reno
plainly bring the Johnson ,Jeffries fight
pictures within the scope of this reso-
luton" said Major Sylvester
THE newspaper reports from other
sections of the country indicate beyond
all question that race hatred was en-
gendered by the mere bulletins con-
corning this affair. Such occurrences
are out of joint with the peace and
good order of the present day in this
country. Anything that tends to in
crease race hatred or sectionalism has
no place whatever in the affairs of the
American people if we live up to the
spirit of today.
Seeks Aid of Legal Authorities.
Ma or Sylvester has called upon the
legal authorities of the District of
Columbia to advise him of his full
powers to prevent the exhibition of
the fight pictures here. The major is
positive already that the exhibitions
can be prevented on the ground of
being an immoral display and he has
already warned local playhouses re-
curing licenses to operate that their
licenses will be revoked if they permit
the display of the pictures within their
walls.
