Little Rock, April 16.-The annual

position as they might deem proper.
The features of the day were
speeches at the afternoon session by
Judge W. f. Kirby and Senator Clarke
each of whom was given a most res
pectful hearing and were frequently
interrupted with applause from the
adherents.
This was especially strong on the
Kirby side of the hall when, in the
course of his address, he challenged
Senator Clarke to run the race over
again in thirty days, in the whole
state, and not make a speech, or to
run it over again in Poinsett County
and abide by the result.
While the addresses of the two can
didates were eloquent and often i'm
passioned, they were free from per-
sonalities, and there were few person
al clashes.
Senator Clarke said if the people of
the St. Francis Levee district had
known Judge Kirby's record on levee
matters better he would not have got
ton as many votes as he did, Senator
Clarke would have been beaten by 90
900 majority if it had not been for his
control of federal patronage" declared
Judge Kirby, and Senator Clarke re-
torted, "lf it had not been for the
federal patronage | would have won
by 10000"
The greater part of the day was
spent in a discussion of a resolution
defining the purpose and policy of the
committee. The Kirby forces insist
ed upon the fullest investigation of
all allegations of fraud in Poinsett
county, but the resolution as finally
adopted declares that the committee
shall confine its Investigations to
charges of alterations of returns, and
disregard as Irregularities impracti-
BILE of contest, allegations conserving
the failure of any voter to pay poll
tax as required by law.

THE PRESIDENTS REA-
SONS FOR ORDERING
FLEET TO TAMPICO.

An official statement of the views
of President Wilson on the Mexican
situation yesterday gave as reasons
for ordering the Atlantic fleet to
Tampico:
The arrest of the paymaster and
blue jackets from the Dolphin at Tam
pico.
Two of these bluejackets, it was
officially stated today for the first
time, were actually taken from the
Dolphin's boat by the Mexicans.
The arrest in Vera Cruz of an or
derly from one of the United States
warships in that harbor, immediate
ly after the similar incident in Tam
pico.
Officials in charge of the telegraph
office in Mexico City withheld an Off
cial dispatch sent by the United States
government to its embassy there,
sent it to the censor and gave it to
the American charge only upon his
emphatic demand for it,
"These repeated otfenses against
the rights and dignity of the United
States" the statement adds, mot
duplicated with regard to the repre-
sentatives of other governments, have
made the impression that the govern
ment of the United States was singled
out for manifestations of i'll will and
contempt
President Wilson told members of
Congress today that if Gen, Huerta
does not salute the American flag at
Tampico the first step TO enforce the
American demand will be the seizure
of Tampico and Vera Cruz.
There will be no landing of marines
or shelling of cities in Mexico without
authorization from Congress.
Four Battleships-the Arkansas,
Vermont, New Hampshire and New
Jersey-steamed from Hampton
Roads yesterday at full speed and in
their grey war paint, for Tampico,
while the battleship Louisiana
steamed from New York on the same
mission.

ARKANSAS
LEADS FLEET SOUTH
Four Dreadnoughts Speed to Tampico
to Enforce American Demands.
No Hint as to Program for
Fleet upon Arrival

On Board the T. S. S. Arkansas at
Sea, April 15.-Four dreadnoughts of
the Atlantic fleet, under Rear Admir-
al Badger, commander in-chief, steam
ed out of Hampton Roads at noon to-
day and turned southwark to join
the American naval force off Tampico
Under orders to maintain a speed of
II y knots an hour, they should make
the Mexican port next Wednesday.
In the squadron that felt its way ou
to sea through the heavy fog hanging
over the. roads were the great flag
ship Arkansas, the Vermont, New
Hampshire and New Jersey.
The last to leave the Arkansas for
shore was Rear Admiral Fiske, chief
of the Navy Bureau of Operations,
who had brought Admiral Badger his
orders from Washington.
The New Hampshire was the first
vessel TO get under way. Ali but the
Yankton were in their war paint of
gray. The activities in Hampton
Roads almost equaled some of the
scenes preceding the departure of
Rear Admiral Schley's flying squad
ron during the Spanish-American war.
The battleship fleet was off Cape
Hatteras at midnight making IL u
knots. No additional orders have been
received since the sailing and there is
no hint as to what program was map
ped out for the feet on its arrival at
Tampico. The crews of all the ships
are ready for an emergency.
The battleship Michigan is expected
to join the squadron en- route, and two
day afterward, according to present
plans, the North Dakota will be
picked up

Little Rock, April 16.-Gov. Hays
has commuted to life Imprisonment
the death sentence of negro named
Higgins, convicted of the murder of
another negro in Mississippi county.
His sentence was recently confirmed
by the Supreme Court, and the gov

had also received a strong petition
from the residents of the county, stat
ing that conviction of second degree
murder would have answered the ends
of justice.

Washington, April Ex-senator
Newlands chairman and Senator Rob
bins of the interstate commerce com
mittee conferred with President Will
son today relative to the antitrust
legislation program and announced
after the conference that they as
members of the subcommittee would
submit to the full committee soon,
their draft of an antitrust bill.
When the committee would report it
to the senate was not announced def
initely. Senator Newlands said that
the bill might be ready within a week
or ten days but Senator Robbins
thought it could not be agreed upon
for two or three weeks. That the
senate committee will not take the
omnibus bill of the house as basis
for its measure was apparent, how
ever. and there is still much doubt
whether an agreement between the
houses can be reached as to the de
finite course to be pursued relative
to the proposed legislation.
