LETTER TO COMMISSIONERS
Governor Futrell Again Takes up Pen Questlon-To Comply With Law.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
 Little Rock.-Gov. Futrell last week again took up the question of the man. agement of the penitentiary affairs by the new Penitentiary Commission.
 Governor Futre1l is said to have re ceived complaints from unofficial sources that members of the commits sion have not complied with the letter of the law in their management of. the penitentiary. These complaints, he de clared, have been given through in- yestigation and as result a letter was written to the commissioners in which he suggested certain methods of pro cedure in the management of the peni. tentiary in line with the law creating the commission.
 The governor suggests that the main office and business of the penitentiary beard be transferred to the convict farm; that two of the commissioners spend practically all their time at this place; that a complete record of every financial transaction of the busi- ness of the penitentiary, fully reflected in vouchers be filed in the auditors office; that every account of claim filed in the auditors office be fully

 Tn reply, We wish to say we concur Governor Futrell, Commissioner J. V Ferguson, J. A. Bradsher and T. P. itemized
 Murrey, acknowledging the receipt of the governors letter, say:
 Tn reply, we wish Q say we concur fully in your opinion, and in some in- stances have failed only to carry it out before now, because of seeming i'm practicability.

In addition to this receipts from admission to entertain ments, sham battles or other exhibi- tions will be used to repay the loan
 The Entertainment Bureau of Little Pock has already given $1,000 and Gov Futrell has added to this sum S3 900 and if the banks accept the plan of the committee all necessary fu1ds will be on hand.

 DR. J. H. KIRKLAND
NEWS RECEIVED THAT NOTED EDUCATOR WILL NOT AC-

MAY HOLD THE POSITION OPEN
Chancellor May Fill Obligation at Van derbilt and Then Come to
 Arkansas.

Western Newspaper Urion News Service.
 Little Rock.-The presidency of the University of Arkansas has been de- cl1ned by Chancellor J. H. Kirkland of Vanderbilt University. This in- formation was contained in letters to members of the University Board of Trustees.
 Chancellor Kirkland had determined fully, it is said, to accept the presi- dency and come to Arkansas at once, but while in New York recently a large sum of money was rendered him to endow the medical school of Van derbilt University. The gift has some conditions which members of the board do not approve, and it is possible it may not be accepted by the Board of Trustees when it meets at Nashville, June 16. The persons who are offer ing this donation to the Vanderbilt medical school insist that Chancellor Kirkland shall remain at Vanderbilt long enough to put the medical school on firm footing. His friends at
 
 obligation to remain there temporarily, and the chancellor himself has come to the conclusion that his leaving at this time would make him liable to the accusation of preferring his own personal interests to the good of Van derbilt.
 It is still hoped that Chancellor Kirk land can be induced to come to Arkan- sas and it is believed that if the en- dowment to Vanderbilt is refused he will come. It is probable that even if the gift is accepted by Vanderbilt the presidency will be held open by the board and that MT. Kirkland will ac- cept the Arkansas position sometime during 1914.
