 The incident, which originated n Southwest Arkansas, and which has just been brought to light through aa investigation made by Pine Bluff in- surance men and shrewd detectivosL employed for that purpose, had its details more cleverly consummated than any life insurance fraud ever per- petrated heretofore in Arkansas.

 But right here the conspirators suf- fered cold feet, became apprehensive and failed to get away with the money, further than to let the draft lie in. bank in neighboring county, where it now Proposes.
 Parties to the attempted fraud arc said to be very prominent in the com munities in which they live, and those who are acquainted with the ieets~iA the case are wondering if the compa- ny will give them immunity because they all but got the money.

International News Special

 Washington, April 11.-There is war among the Senate Democrats ov- CT Leader Martins steering coM- mittee, the membership of which was announced tonight. The factionists are whetting their knives and threat. ening all sorts of relations On Martin for his alleged disregard of promises.
 Here is the steering committee:
 Martin, of Virginia; Culberson of Texas; Simmons, of North Carolina; Clarke of Arkansas; Bankhead of Ala bama; Fletcher of Florida; Williams. of Mississippi; Kern, of Indiana and Hitchcock, of Nebraska.
 And this is what has started the war:
 At the recent Democratic caucus six teen Democrats, counted themselves as Progressives and voted for Senator sh1ivley for minority leader. Senator Martin, the alleged choice of Bailey, vas elected with twenty-one votes. Senators resented a revolt in the call- GUS by promising a square deal and upon that pledge it was left to Martin to name the steering committee, which is to fill committee vacancies
 When this list became known tonight Democratic Senators of the Progress sive wing of the party exploded in their wrath and promised that the next Democratic caucus would be lively one. If this steering committee att tempts to pack the Senate committees it S feared that Democratic insmr- reotion will follow and the harmony plans will receive severe set back.
