There were no hogs offering in the

It has slumoe'- ed fer ueeks in the House, but when it WAS called up Tuesday morning, it was a signal for the fight to begin.
 Representative Going made n,o- tion to indefinitely postpone the pill and made a vigorous speech against the measure, declaring t, most iniquf- tous and the means of building IF an invulnerable political machine.

New York. March 2S.-Ks the ill., vestigat.on into the horror of the Tr1- angle Shirtwaist Company fire pro- ceeds, evidence has been unearthei to show 1t:at the fire fighting appliances and the apparatus and exits and work rooms Of the Asch building were not in gooi condition.
 Witnesses called this cb the atten- tion of Fire Marshal Beers when they related their feeble attempts to co!i- meet a hose to the standpipe in the Greene street stairway on the eighth floor. An inspection of the stand pipe and hose stands shows that t2e nozzles were not connected. Furth- CT investigation shows that the hose nozzles were kept in wooden ''x which Lad to be broken open to be released.

Field Selected For Aviation Meet Here After Many
 Site Are Inspected
CLEAR SPACE DESIRED
Machines Must Have Impetus Enough to Take the Air-Mr. Mercer
 Talks of the Fields.

L. 4 Mercer, who Is arranging de- tails in advance of the National Ayia- tors meet, to take place in this city in April, was seen at the Hotel Iat. ferson last night and spoke at soma length Oh the subject of aviation fields.
 In the course of his remarks MT Mercer stated it was the general be- lief of the lay public that an aero plane could make a successful exhf- bition flight from any cleared space of land, provided the clearing was large enough to let the machine give impetus enough to take the air. This is an entirely erroneous impression. The most dangerous stage on an as- roplane flight, according to MT. Me-. cer, is from the time it leaves the earth until it has gained lateral control at about one hundred feet altitude. Clear surroundings are absolutely necessary for safety The advance lifting plane is very sensi- tive eno if elevated too abruptly when ti'e machine leaves the earth it will direct an almost perpendicular course skyward with the result that the loss of air resistance and the laws of gravitation will bring 1t to ca 'th backward. This stunt is frequently performed by amateurs or wfth results more or less damaging to aviator or aeroplane
 It will be readily seen then, that a gradual ascent is Lecessary and to accomplish this a good, clear space, unobs;ructed by heavy timber, build ings Or telegraph wires, is necessary to achieve the desired height where plane may straighten out, so to speak in unhampered air room. Many so- called air holes are encountered by aviators. These might be more cor rectly called vacuums. They are air eddies caused by conflicting currents and when a machine goes ihto one of them it drops until more buoyant atmosphere $ again met. Many ex' pert aviators incline to tha bellet that the late John 3. MoissaEt drop ped to his death through an air hole. but chis will always remain cne or the grear unsolved mysteries wltl which tte new science has besn fraught since it's discovery.
 Many important cities have Deen debarred from aviation meets through the'r lack of suitable starting fields within a reasonable distance from the center of population. After inspect ing a number of sites all around anu in Pine Bluff yesterday. MT. Mercer selected the old Jones park, now known as Rutherford park, as the aviation field for the coming meet here. He says it is not an ideal .o- cation, hut the most desirable in po'nt of flying space

 TO LEGISLATORS Gov Donaghey Would Do Away With Convict
 Lease System
HE GETS NO RELIEF
House and Senate Would Not Inter fere With Authority of the Pcni.
 tentiary Board in Ma4trf.

Little Rock, Ark, March 2S-What shall be done with the state convicts who nave been employed under coa- tract is the Question that has be an propUun6ed to the Legislature by the penitentiary board and the governor. And tfe Legislature does not show any great willingness to attempt an answer.
 At q meeting of the penitentiary board, Gov. Donaghey offered res- oluti0,l that, as the Reaves contract for the employ of 200 men expii ed March 24, their disposition be left to the Legislature. Gen. Norwood offer ed a substitute that the men be ccn- tinued under contract with w. l.. Reaves. The substitute was voted down, to 2, Commissioner Phillips voting with Gen. Norwood The ori- ginal resolution was then adopted by the same vote.
 At the afternoon session, the gover- nor transmitted to each House a copy of the resolution embodied in a spe- cal message, to which he said:
 ''I recommend that you immediately pass 2 concurrent resolution expres- sing it as the sense of your Honorable body that he practice of 1easing out convicrs to contractors be discoatin- ued at once, and that you follow tn's -rescautfof -~enactment of bill ra. pealing the existing laws by which convicts are hired out to contractors and that you further provide that the labor of all convfcts not needed on the sta;e farm be given to such co''n- ties of the state as will pay all the expeusas of maintenance of said con- victs for the building of public high ways. By this method of employ ment the expense for running f'e penitent;ary would be reduced more than two-thirds of the present raF@ There would be no cause for fur'ie: deficiency in the penitentiary fund and the communities of the state would get the direct benefit" Att tempts in the House and Senate to get the resolution up, by Messrs Hurst and Jacobson, failed. "htlr resolutions. which are identical, pro- vided that the board should continue to make such disposition of the con- victs as they might deem proper.

Kerwin retorted that Mr. Going had not been limited. and If the House did not wish to hear him, he would quit, which he proceeded to do.
 He was followed by MT. Hurst, of Washinqton, who favored the bill de- clar:ng it a fight between capital and labor The state is facing deficit Of half million dollars and the money must be found somewhere. Natdr- ally she corporations and their coun- sel would fight this and all other measures which seek to make them pay their full proportion of the taxes.
 Representative Little, of Mississip- pi, acknowledged one of the most magne1e orators of the House, begaL his speech against the bill and at 4:3O .ielded to motion to adjourn and will finish his argument Fiji day, next Senate day. He den1ec the charge of corporate influence against the bill, declaring it most art fully Irswn instrument to permit a lot of tax-grabbers to filch mouey from the people.
