County Judge Mooney Clifford Bell who had circulated a number of peti- tions, and whose petitions were thrown out in the hearing in the county court, was on the stand yes terday afternoon He made a more substantial witness for the petitions in circuit court, declaring that he had acknowledged" the affidavit taken on the petitions. He did not know much about the individuality of the signers. however, and it may be that in tho final ruling of the court the petitions he circulated will not stand as we'll as the others generally circu- lated
 Win II. Vale, now connected with the police department and who as a notary public, placed his jurat on many of the petitions, and who tesH- fled in county court, was called yes terday in circuit coourt, and he was quite certain of having administered the oath in a sufficient form that those who signed 10 the foot of the ftNiAiRiS hlFW Nidi they were uQlilEs
 There were q number of witnesses who had circulated petitions on which there were one or two or three names improperly placed, probably because the names had not been signed in their presence or probably because one person had sisued for another. but as whole the circulators of the petitions made substantial as wit nesses for their work.
 The witnesses now being called are in support of the petitions Beginning probably at noon today the witnesses for the remoastmnts will begin to take the stand Just how many of these are Go he called is not ndi- cated. but the ease occupied almost three weeks Of the time of the county court Whether anything like that much time will be induleed by the circuit court on appeal is matter left to prophecy

DEPARTMENT MUST
 ENDORSE OUR PLAN
UNLESS SECRETARY LAIN E HELPS OUR APPROPRIATION
 ITEM TT WILL BE LOST.
Necessary Now That the Importance of the Drainage Work Be Empha- sized on the Interior Department,

As President George Callahan Of the Young Mems Chamber of Com merce stated some weeks ago, we must use some means of securing the aid of the interior department in the matter of our appropriations, or out congressman and senators will be un- able to accomplish anything worth while in the matter of Improvements for this reservation that should be taken care of by this session of con gress.
 The fact that the interior depart ment recommendation is necessary and essential is plainly defined in a letter which has been received here from Congressman sam Taylor, who is anxious to be helpful 10 Hot Springs in the matter of the appro- priatlons promised by our senators and congressman.
 Congressman Taylor said in his letter:
 "On receipt of your letter of the 22d instant, 1 immediately called at the interior department and conferred with Assistant Secretary Miller, touching the resolution which yon eu- close me He informed me that the recommendations made by Secretary Walter l.. Fisher and embodied ill the report submitted by Mir Sledge Ia tum. was now pending before the pub lie lands committee of the senate, but that Secretary Lane has made no rec ommendation touching the same.
 life also informed me that the only estimate coming from Mr. Lanes of flee which is now before the commit tee on appropriations of the house, is the item of S20,000 with reference to repair of the old free bath house
 H urged upon him that to under take to improve this old bath house was in the judgment of your league and the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce and other citizens, an i'm, proper expenditure, and that a new site shoud be selected, removed from the center of bath house row, upon which a new and modern bath house should be erected
 "He carefully read the recommen- dation and suggestions contained in your letter and that of the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce, as also the resolution, and then said: It is my purpose to visit Hot Springs just so soon as | can find the time
 Ut will be hard to get an appro- priation of this character through congress without positive recon mention coming from the interior de partment You will remember that some time ago l personally appeared before the committee on appropria tions of the house and found Chair man Fitzgerald and other members of the committee opposed to the recon meadations set out in the report of Secretary Fisher and from recent inc tervieWs from members of the com mittee l do not find any change of sentiment
 "Snce have been in congress have never seen any bill passed or any appropriation made antagonistic to the views of the committed 1 think it is the purpose Of Senator Clarke and Senator Robinson to en- deayor to take some proper steps as to this matter when the appropriation bin reaches the senate. Of course you must know that it would be my pleasure 10 do everything can for Hot Springs
 Yours very truly,

Wounded who arrived at Mont Lu-
con give details of the siege Of Fort
Troyon, near verdun. They say that
while the Germans were bombarding
the commander of the fort did not re-
ply. The enemy, believing that the
fort had been evacuated, approached in
order to destroy the redoubt.

set fire to two carloads of straw in

the fire, and that they could take the
place, advanced in close formation.
THE French suddenly unmaslxed
their mitrailleuses, which opened a
deadly fire. The number of German
bodies abandoned the slope around
Fort Troyon is estimated at 1000"
