THE OUTGOING ADMINISTRATION

me retirement of Mayor w. L. lohey from the mayors office i. oouolless welcomed by that official ills two terms as Mayor have ham iiooded With complaints and hard work on his part to try and satisfy a dissatisfied public. He has .giveo the public all that was in him and in many instances his work was suc- cessful. There was much left undone however, because of lack of f,,r1s and because of the inability of one man to accomplish results withoct the cooperation of citizens.
 Mayor Toney has made the citv q consclentlous and earnest official. He has tried to please everybody, which no one can do. His goodness of heart has interfered in some eases With his earnest endeavor to enforce the law to the letter and this was one of his failings. Mayor Toney, While good business man, an ex- cellent gentleman and a hard work CT, often lets his friendship interfere With his official acts He did not wish to take on the enmity of friends ana rather than offend some he would often overlook little matters that came up before the Co..l .cil where the demands of some classes were made for relief, and in many of them these demands were purely personal and were made to satisfy some private party.
 Mayor Toney's administrations have been characterized by remark able series of Improvements in pub lie works. Many paving districts and sidewalk districts have been ere. ated during his incumbency as mayor and many miles of new pavements, curbs and new sidewalks have been built. To him might be given the credit, officially, notwithstandil the fact that in nearly all cases the property owners were behind the movements. In some others Mayor Toney personally secured signatures to petitions asking for the creation of improvement districts and when they were on, gave the building of streets, alleys, sidewalks, bridges. culverts his personal attention. It was no more than his duty but there have been men in the mayors office in past years who did not think this necessary and that is one reason why the improvements have to be 1 made again.
 Mayor Toney worked hard. He deserves credit for that and he was anything but a failure as a mayor Many will say that the downtown streets were neglected while he held that office, others will file some other complaint, but as we stated be- l fore, it is hard matter to please all of the people all of the time. If Mayor Toney had been urged on by the public enthusiasm that has been manifest in recent weeks by the City
 Beautiful campaign, he would have ! accomplished far better and more general results. The city treasury is i depleted. The debt of the city has been reduced some during the Toney administration, but the majority of property owners of Pine Bluff favor a big debt if they have Improvements and progress in municipal affairs to show for them.

SIX DISASTERS
TO VISIT US
DURING YEAR

WASHINGTON, Dec. 80. Six big
disasters will occur in the United
States in 1911. This is not the pre-
diCtion of an astrologer, but the
American Red Cross Society.
Experience has taught the Red
Cross to expect an average of five or
six big disasters in this country each
year. 1t does not undertake to say
when or where they will occur, or
whether they will be caused by storm,
fire, food, earthquake or explosion,
but it is sure they will come.
Experience proves not only that an
average of five or six disasters, severe
enough to call aid from the Red Cross,
may be expected every year in the
United States, but the demands from
foreign countries are predicted to be
much more numerous.
Some idea of the character and va
riety of the disasters with which the
Red Cross deals is given in the re-
view of those which demanded atten-
tion during the last twelve months.
They include in the United States:
One hurricane, one mine fire, two
mine explosions and forest fires in
Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Washington
and Minnesota. Foreign calamities
/ demanding aid from the Red Cross in
cluded; Floods in Mexico, France
Sevia and Japan; the Armenian mas
sacres, the earthquake in Costa Rica
and the relief of the starving soldiers
of Nicaragua.
i In the disasters which occurred in
the United States SOC lives were lost
while, approximately $500 persons
were given immediate attention
About 5000 persons lost their home.
by fire or hurricane. The Red Cros.
expended $4,000 for relief operation,
in the United States and in foreign
countries $66,5OO was spent, makinl
la total of $262,5OO. Other relief fund,
expended in this country in coniunc
ton with those of the Red Cros
amounted to $2lS,6OO, making tn
grand total of relief expenditures TO
the year under Red Cross Leadership
S4SO,5OO.

PACKERS MUST
Stand trial
Judge kohISaat Quashes Writ
Of nabeas Corpus Granted
Accused Men

CHICAGO, Nov. 18.-The govern
ment won another move in it's fight
to bring to trial the nine indicted Chi
cago meat packers when Judge Kohl
saat in the United States circuit
court quashed the writ of habeas cor
1us issued several days ago.
Judge Kohlsaat held that the cir
cult court had no power to issue a
writ except in extraordinary circum-
stances and that in the present case
it was without the right ito do so, y
he said, in the decision, would be
an attempt to revise the finding of
the United States court.
The order Of the court will be to
quash the writ, remand the defend
ants for trial, and surrender them to
their sureties."
Levy Mayer, counsel for packers,
prayed for an appeal to the supreme
court.
The decision means according TO
the Interpretation Of tie governments
that after the legal struggle
which began nine years ago, the
packers must go to trial :yext Mon
day. Attorneys for the packers, how,
ever, contend their appeal TO the su-
preme CO lrt will act as stay to pre-
vent immediate trial in the district
court.

Strict Censorship Of News
has Kept Rebel Move
melt Secret
(by Associated Press.)


LONDON, Nov. 18.-The Venezuelan
consul here received cable advices to-
day from Caracas informing him that
Ex-President Castro, at the head of a
considerable body of rev lutionists has
met with disastrous defeat near San
Cristobal.
Castro's whereabouts has been a
matter of considerable uncertainty for
several months. Venezuelan censor
ship allowed little news of him or Of
the present revolutionary movement
to sift through. Dispatches from
neighboring countries have made it
evident that revolt of some serious
ness was either becoming or already
launched, but most Of the advices have
carefully insisted that Castro had no
part in the proposed uprising.
The most recent news on the sub
ject came from Willemstad, Curacao.
on Thursday last. This was that
Castro was residing on his estate at
Cucuta, on the Venezuelan frontier.
Cucuta is less than 50 miles from
San Cristobal, where Castro's defeat
is reported. The moment that Castro
would cross the frontier he would
find himself face to face with serious
opposition. President Gomez has had
5000 men mobilizing near the border
ready to fall on Castro as soon as an
"''ortunity was Afforded.
