COAL CLAIMS REJECTED.

Fred. bennett, Commissioner of the
General Land Office, rejected all OF the
Cunningham claims TO Alaska coal lands.
thus reservng TO the government title to
$3.50 acres Of the most valuable coal lands
in Alaska The decision of Commissioners
bennett finds concusvely that from their
inception these claims were part of plan
to acquire joint property, to be admin
istered as a corporation and financed by an
issue of bonds: hence all claims should be
cancelled. The Secretary of the Interior
concurred in the finding of the Commits
sioner. and as the law provides that the
finding of the Department of the Interior
shall be final as to the facts there Is no
opportunity for appeal. These claims were
the subject of the now famous CLAWS
charges, which were followed by the Bal
linger- Pinchot investigation. The claims
had once been ordered approved by r. A.
Ballinger when he was Commissioner or
the General Land Office. The Cunningham
claims brought about the dismissal OF Chief
Forester Clifford Pnchot. Louis X. CLAWS,
a chief of field division in the Land Office.
and several minor officials Pinchot and
CLAWS were dismissed for INSTRUMENTATION
for attacking Ballinger as favoring the
claims.
Joseph B. Reichmann, ex-president or
the Carnegie Trust Company, was found
guilty in the Criminal Branch of the SUI
preme Court Of a misdemeanor for making
fraudulent report to the State Banking
Department
-Four and half months in the peniten-
tiary was the punishment meted out by
Justice Vernon NJ. Davis to Reichmann.

PAPER BOX MAKERS ALSO.

For a second time in eighteen months
the government indicted the combination or
boxboard manufacturers which dominates
the paper box trade for violation OF the
Sherman antitrust act. The second indict-
rnent, which followed pleas Of guilty by all
the defendants TO the first one, was re-
turned by the federal grand jury as the
result of an inquiry on which United States
Attorney Wise and lis assistants were en-
gagged for some time. The bill of complaint
charges that the defendants waited hardly
g year from the finding Of the original in
Cictment before getting UP new scheme
an restraint of interstate and foreign trade.

GOULDS WANT TO
IMPROVE ROADS

The Salt Lake Herald Republican
Jeffrey. president, and Charles
Schlacks. vice-president, of the Den
yer & Rio Grande and the Western
Pacific railroads, and Kingdom Gould,
vice-president of the Missouri Pacific,
it is probable an unusual effort will be
made by the Gould interests to bor-
row several million dollars with which
to improve these western railroads.
Railroad men declare that the Denver
& Rio Grande ought to be double
tracked at least part of it's distance,
as the road is doing more business
than a single track line can handle
properly.
But it is hard to sell railroad bonds
and other securities nowadays" said
s. v. Derrah, assistant general freight
agent of the Denver & Rio Grande and
Western Pacific. THE public is afraid
of railroad stocks because it fears the
ing powers entirely taken away by the
Interstate Commerce Commission. No
one wishes to invest in a company
when he knows hat some outside body
has the right to say what the concern
may charge for it's services. But if
the money market eases up there is
no doubt but what the Gould interests
are ready to spend many millions of
dollars in Improvements. Eighty
thousand dollars now is being expend-
ed to improve the Salt Lake shops, but
we would like to have ten times that
amount for other improvements"

LATEST STORY TOLD
BY SAM p. DAVIS

Sam p. Davis is the authority for
from his recent visit to the convict
camp where Warden Baker is having
about fifty prisoners of the penitentiary
do work on the highways without
not to attempt to escape. says the
Reno Journal.
Davis has a wide reputation as a
humorist and there is no doubt con
corning his veracity.
The humorist says the prison boys
told him that some days ago they
caught two coyotes, who, being under
the impression that the workmen
were harmless made no resistance. The
two primitive dogs were tied up at first
and one by the exercise of considerable
effort managed to gnaw his rope in the
night and get away.
The other coyote showed a DISPOSE
ton to be docile and apparently rel
ished his confinement, making no
struggle to break the rope that bound
him. Accordingly by degrees he was
initiated into the life of the inmates
of the pe~nitentiary. He was photo
graphed, measured, a paw-print taken
and then he was shorn close. After
that he was painted with broad stripes
around his middle so that he looked
for all the world like the familiar

AN OLD RESIDENT
 PASSES AWAY
Daniel NcstalI, hho Game to Pine Bintf in isil, Died Yesterday From tle Effects of d ParaIytic Stroke
 He Suffered Two Years Ago.

Daniel Westall, 70 years old, a resi- dent of this city for more than forty years, died at his home, No. 903 West Sixth avenue, yesterday morning at | o'clock. His death was not unex- pected as he had been in feeble health some months, the result of paraly- tic stroke which he suffered two years ago.
 MT. Nestall is survived by his vii dow and seven children. His daugh- tels are Mrs. Creed Caldwell, Mrs Alonzo Mcdonald, Mrs. George Cald- well, of Double Wells, Ark, and Mrs. W. l.. Wood of Camden, Ark. His sons live in this city. They are W. D. Westall, K. D. Westall and J. NJ. Westall.
 The deceased was in the grocery business on West Sixth avenue for many years, but during the past two years his health prevented his giving the business his personal attention. He Was widely and fayorably known throughout this section and had many friends in this city and county. Mr, Westall came to PinelBluff in 1871 and married in this city in 1864. when a member of a Federal cavalry. He came here from Evansville, Indiana.
 The funeral services will be con ducted from the family residence this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Rev. J. II. Blythe, of Monticello will conduct the services.

THAT COMING
 EXTRA SESSION
Governor Donaghey Says He Could Not Delay the Rec0nyening of
 the LegisIature,

Little Rock, Ark, May 17.-Reports
 which reach Little Rock from the interior of the state indicate that some of the politicians of the regular session of the General Assembly just closed, will come back repentant and will endeavor to give the people a
 run for their money during the spe- cial session, if they cannot escape by
 pulling the wool down further over the eyes of their constituents It is the general impression here that Gov
 Donaghey should have waited sev- eral weeks and then issued the spe- cial call, so that the people could be- gin to realize the choatic condition
 a few alleged statesmen were cap- able of leaving the state in. It is claimed that by the time the peoplee woke up to the betrayal of the trust
 imposed in the members of the As sembly, such a cry of indignation would go up that no member would dare come back and repeat the dose. Gov. Dcnaghey states he would cheer fully have waited several weeks, but
 he was forced to call the Assembly back at once in order to hand the appropriation bills back to the House and Senate without absolutely veto- ing them. Some very amusing ques- tions are being asked some of the senators who have gone home and undertaken to explain why they killed the Bradham-Hurst bill. There has never been directly charged, except by winks and mods, that there was anything passed about to, keep this bill from becoming a law, yet s. many of the voters believe there was that many of the legislators are at tempting to explain first. With the number of matters to be attended to so small, it is doubtful if the power ful Hobbies will be maintained in the State Capitol, as were there before the adjournment of the regular ses- sion, and the locker, or sideboard feature of an ante-room in the south wing of the building, will probably be eliminated during the special ses- sion.
