Nothing of the SIaShing of
Robert L. Stevens.

a row. No one thought the affair was
at all serious. Stevens displayed a shoe
buttoner as his weapon" and McDon-
aid drew a small pearl handled pen

have slapped Mcdonald across the face.

He dashed up two flights Of stairs TO
the room Of a friend, where he fell in a

WOULD LIMIT SALE
OF Wild CAT STOCK

Little Rock, July 22-Robert Mar
tin, one of the representatives elect
from Pulaski county, contemplates a
legislative assault upon the peddlers
of stock in wild cat mining compan-
les or other industrial or financial
concerns VIGOROUSLY long on prom
Uses and short on realization. Com
panies of this character, organized
in Arizona and other states with a
low standard of corporate policy,
have during recent years flooded the
state with worthless stock on prob
lematic gold and copper mines in the
Far West, and no one has yet been
reported who has ever gotten his
money back, much less the tremen-
dous dividends promised.
\ Mr.. Martins proposed new act
provides that the State Auditor or
some other constituted authority,
shall pass upon foreign corporations
entering the state, and forbid them
to sell stock whenever ne considers
them wild cat" In this manner he
believes that he will be able to pro-
tect the people from the plausible ar
guments advanced by the sellers OF
beautifully autographed stock IN fic-
titious or worthless mines.
