BRIDGE CONTRACT
 TO BE TAKEN OVER
(. C. kayanaugh Says Contract Witl Roemheld Construction Company
 Will Be Transferred.
Pharmacy.

Little Rock, Aug. 20.-Jules-Roem- held, operating under the name of the Roemheld Construction Company of Chicago, went into bankruptcy in Chi cago about July IT.
 This company had the contract for the erection of the proposed free bridge at Pine Bluff, which has been in litigation for the last two years.
 The fact that the contractor has ta- ken bankruptcy proceedings has been interpreted by some to mean that l. further obbstacle has been thrown ill the way of the construction of the Pine Bluff bridge.
 Investigation, however, proves that it will not cause any delay, so far as the contract is concerned. Four of the largest bridge companies of the country are submitting bids to the re- ceiver, who, it is expected, will award the contract to one of them soon. When the legal obstacles have been removed, it is said, the work on the bridge construction will proceed.
 The contract is considered a valu- able one, being for $605,OOO. By act of the last legislature the bond issue for the bridge was limited to $75O,0o0. c. c. Kavanaugh of the Little Rock and Pine Bluff Traction Company, which proposes to use the Pine Bluff bridge in reaching it's terminals in Pine Bluff, says the bankruptcy pro- ceedings will in no wise interfere with the company's plans.
 we are advised" said MT. kaV- anaugh, ,"by the receiver and by ME Rcemheld's attorney, that arrange ments have been made to carry out the contract of the construction com pany."

Kansas City, Aug. 20.-Drouth con- ditions in the vicinity of St. Joseph, Mo-, and in the Wichita, Kan, dis trict were little better today than be- fore the first showers in weeks fell last Saturday.
 BlaCksmiths are working day and night repairing farm implements, gone to pieces because of heat-shrunken wood parts. Heat is scorching auto mobile wheels until the spokes shrink and rattle, say motor owners.
 Nearly every farm is surrounded by plowed fire guards, as a spark in the dry grass and wheat stubble would start a conflagration.

New 'Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, Aug. 20.-Cotton-Fu- tures opened steady at an advance of 5@9 points on good cables and dry weather map. Photographic advices from Texas and Oklahoma were that the crop continued to deteriorate steadily. Several important counties sent in predictions of a short yield. The forecast promised no rain for any portion of the belt. Both sides bought around the call and the trading months were put 10@11 points over yesterdays close. Scalping longs took profits on rather large scale and at the end of the first half hour of business prices were 5@6 points up.
 August, 11.51c bid; September 11.47 m11.49c; October 11.36M11.37c; De- cember, 11.34@11.35c; January, 11.3Sc asked; March, 11.41c asked; May, 1149@11.51c.
 Sensational reports of crop damage in Texas and Oklahoma were receiv- ed around the middle of the morning and buying for both accounts increas- ed. Offerings were scanty and came almost wholly from longs who were satisfied with their profits. Concern over the situation in the west was increased by the claim that rains now would work untold damage on open cotton, while, at the same time, it was contended that without rain shortly nothing but crop disaster would re- suit At the highest of the morning prices were 1o@16 points over yester- days last figures Profit taking was heavy at noon and prices stood then at a net advance of 9@12 points.
