Little Rock, June 20-Contrac- tors who desire to bid on the ad- ditional buildings which will be erected at the agricultural schools of the state, have been writing to Gov. Futrell to ask when they will receive their money, if they are successful in their efforts to land the contract.
 Gov. Futr ell has replied to all that as this money must be paid out of the general revenue fund, it is a mere matter of conjecture, as this fund is an unstable quan. tity. He goes into the situation a bit more fully however, by an> alyzing the probable status of the general revenue fund for the coming year. He tells the con- tractors that it will probably take all the money to be paid in by the county collectors at the an nual settlement to be made next month, to pay the outstanding claims against the state.
 About the same time the fran chise and corporation tax will be paid into the Treasury, and this will be sufficient to keep the state departments going until the first of the year. Unless the liquor people are able to defeat the stringent prohibition acts of the last legislature, there will be little coming in the first of the year, so the contractors will have to depend upon the taxes collect ed next year for the payment
 The Governor is advising all contractors who ask, that they had better arrange to carry their accounts for year, if they make bids upon the state buildings.

.LAMARA DOES BIGGEST
 THREE DAYS WITH "sAPHO"

Perhaps no picture that has played the city in several years has attract ed as much attention as the engage ment of Daudets Sapho with Flor ence Roberts in the title role at the Lamara Theater.
 The production. which is the work of the Majestic Company, lends much to the wonderful love story of the French, despite the fact that it has been the subject of many interpreta tious by competent actors in the days of it's reign in the legitimate drama.
 During the three days that it has been at the Lamara Theater it has entertained the three biggest days of business in the history of that playhouse and so many will be un- able to see it owing to the fact that the bookings take it to the south of the state that the management has decided to play a return date, which is to be announced later.
 Much of the success of the picture aside from the fact that il is a master work of photograph is the local popu- laritN of Miss Roberts and the un- usual attendance of the upper ten is just tribute to the art of the California artist.

CHARGE THAT INCOME TAX
 IS NOT CONSTITUTIONAL
In Behalf of Elsie DeWoIf Interesting Suit is Filed.
rAssoc1ArED PRESS DISPATCH

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
 CHICOGA, Dec. 3.-Charges that the income tax feature of the new tariff law constitutes class legislation and IS unconstitutional were made today at a test suit filed here against the Conu- mental Commercial Trust and Savings bank on behalf of Miss Elsie De Wolfe of New York. The United states gov ernment probably will be asked to aid in the defense of the bill, according to counsel for the bank. who declared he would seek a conference with Attorney General McReynolds to discuss carry ing the action of the United States su- preme court for a ruling.
 The declaration filed for Miss De Wolfe, alleges the tax violated the fifth amendment to the constitution. that it deprives her of property without due process of law and violated the four teenth amendment in denying her equal protection under the law The gradu- ated scale of taxation. the declaration alleged, discriminates unjustly against persons of incomes under $100,00O per year, usually gained from industrial and artistic pursuits, in favor of those with incomes of more than $100,000 per year.
 Miss De Wolfe was formerly a well known actress. She retired from the stage and became an interior decorator. She is now in Paris.

Today to Bring Out Gov ernment's Attempt to Connect Defendants With Mexican Conspirators Prosecution $ Progress

Fighting it out strictly on law points and invoking every possible rule of evidence against the introduc- ton of the governments testimony, the defense in the Phelps-Dodge neutrality eases again passed the day il. the sometimes successful opera tion of blocking the advance of the prosccution's case which N-s far f~om finished last night at adjourn mcnt. In cross examination. not d mint of the defense's line of eViaen- tial work was to be seen, hut in the numerous objections. it was plain that the case will not end in this court ir il goes against the defen- dants.

Oefense's Examination

One very startling fact was brought out in the defense's attempt to cross examine De Negri. It was that there was no infringement of law or reso- luton in this case because the gov ernment of the state of Sonora is in fact the same as that of Madero r. whom the president permitted the export of arms. Attorney ]. M Ross declared out of court he could show that the state government is contin- uous with that of Madero. that the constitution from which it gets it's name is the document that. Madero provided, that MaderiSta has ceased |" be applied to followers of the dead dictator but now applies to q politi- cal party in Mexico that the leaders oi lhe state government are really pretenders to the throne of Mexico"
 The defendants will not plead ig- norance of the law. but ignorant of a fact. the fact that the supreme court had reversed the Maxev decf- sicn and rendered it illegal to trans port arms"
 The governments objection to this hne of argument was sustained.
 Morrison said that since the gov ernment had ruled out De Negri'q phone talk with Perez a new light rad been thrown on the subject and nc would re-introduce that testimony. The jury had been excused The gov ernment introduced a brief affecting the BracamOnte" evidence. Morrison argued on the re-intrOductiOn of the bfacamonte testimony but lost when the objection was sustained Ling qulzZed De Negri on the movements or the c0nSpiratOrS and brought oIIt the fact that they had seen no United
