ATTEMPT TO WRECK
FAST X. c. TRAIN

Fort Smith, Jan. 30.-For the sec
ond time within the past six months
an attempt was made Wednesday
night to wreck the Iron Mountain s
fast passenger train No. 1870, better
known as the Kansas City-Hot Springs
Special. The latest attempt was made
mile south of Mackey, Okla, 81
miles north of this city while the
train was en- route from this city tC
Kansas City about 10 o'clock. Several
dozen ties and barrels filled with
scrap iron were placed on the track
Engineer Lee Pence brought the train
to stop few feet from the obstruc-
tions.
Last November an attempt was
made to wreck the same train within
200 feet of the place where the OBJ
structions were found last night. De-
tectives of the railway are investigat-
, ing on several theories, one of them
being that the wreck was planned by
train robbers of an amateur car
acter.

WRECK CABOT'P. 0. SAFE
BURGLARS ARE FRIGHTENED
AWAY AFTER NITRO-GLYC-
ERIN EXPLOSION

Little Rock, Jan. 30.-Safe blowers
made an unsuccessful attempt to rob
the safe in the postoffice at Cabot, 25
miles north of Little Rock, about
1890 o'clock this morning. One charge
of nitro -glycerin was discharged, the
explosion battering the safe door and
warping it at the bottom. A second
charge had been prepared and was
ready to set off when the robbers dis
appeared. They evidently had been
frightened away after setting off the
first charge. So far as could be
learned the robbers did not take any
thing.
The robbers broke into the section
house on the Iron Mountain at Austin
a station a few miles from Cabot.
Crowbars and hammers were taken
and these were found in the Cabot
postoffice building this morning.

DIRECTORS FAVOR
INCREASE OF LIMIT
FOR DISTRICT SCHOOL TAX
PRESIDENTS REYNOLDS AND
DOYNE ADDRESS ANNUAL
CONVENTION.

Little Rock, Jan. 3d. The Arkan-
sas school directors convention, in
session here yesterday, unanimously
passed resolution asking that the
constitutional limit of local school tax
levy be increased not to exceed five
mills above the present maximum of
seven mills.
The meeting was held in the con-
vention room of Hotel Marion. Over
200 school directors, representing as
many school districts from every sec
ton of the state, were enrolled, also
a number of school superintendents,
teachers, county examiners and the
full membership of the State Board
of Education.
President Allen Winham of Tex
arkana presided. President John C,
Futrell of the University of Arkan-
sas, President j. J. Doyne of the State
Normal, Hon. J. H. Hinemon, former
state superintendent; Rev Forney
AASo~iiiiioCii, HlCiilbSI VI LIE SldtG
Board of Education, and Col. w. P.
Fletcher of Lonoke addressed the
morning session.
Col. Fletcher submitted a resou-
ton providing for three mill in
crease of the local school tax levy for
buildings, grounds and equipments.
This and other suggested resolutions
were submitted to a committee of
nine for consideration during the noon
recess.
During the afternoon meeting a
telling address was delivered by Pres
ident j. H. Reynolds of Hendrix Col
lege, Conway. President Reynolds
voiced the sentiment of the meeting
in that all other and ultimate consid-
erations should be brushed aside and
that the meeting definitely express
its attitude on the subject OF 1mmedi-
ate relief by giving all local districts
in towns or in the county the right
to vote upon themselves a larger
school tax if they so willed. Upon
vote, the resolution was unanimously
passed.
The 200 directors present paid their
own expenses, gave their time and
have in sight no reward except in the
betterment of the local public schools
Much praise was given George B.
Cook, state superintendent of public
instruction, for his active work in
bringing together this representative
body and for the fact that he has
secured funds from the southern
board with which to conduct cam
paign on behalf of the directors as
|sociation for the proposed constitu-
tional amendment to increase the
local tax levy five mills.

FIRST SCRIP REISSUE
SAVED COUNTY $4,000
FRAUDULENT WARRANTS CAN
CELLED BY JUDGE MERRI-
MAN IN 1888.

The story in yesterdays Log Cabin
Democrat of the order of re-issuance
of county warrants by County Judge
j. w. Holt should have stated that it
was the third intsead of the second
re-issuance since the county was or
ganized This fact was brought out
today by former County Judge E. M.
Merriman, who during the first year
of his administration made a similar
order. Judge Merriman's order ap-
pears on the county court records as
having been made on July 20, 1888,
the holders of script being notified to
file their warrants for cancellation
and re-issuance on October 81, 1888.
An interesting bit of history was
connected with this order, according
to Judge Merriman, who states that
during the first years of the county's
history and before the end of the
''carpet-bag" regime in Arkansas, the
Republican county had fraudulently
issued about $4,000 in county script
of which no record was made. These
warrants were afterwards converted
into judgments of federal court, but
when the re-issuance order was made
in 1883 Judge Merriman was able to
prove to the satisfaction of Judge
Caldwell, then presiding over the fed
eral court at Little Rock, that the
warrants were fraudulent and the
judgment against the county was ac-
cordingly quashed.

1000 ARKANSAS
Miners STRIKE

Fort Smith, Jan. 30.-Over thous-
and coal miners employed by the Cen
trail Coal & Coke Company of Kan
sas City, in the mines at Hartford,
Huntington and Bonanza are out on a
strike, and according to leaders of the
United Mine Workers of America the
strike will cost the company $1,000
day in penalties. 1t is the largest
walk out of coaI miners through dis
agreement in Arkansas coal fields in
years.
The trouble originated at Mine No
Z, the Hoffman mine, at Hartford.
Four men there claimed they were
not given employment by the oper-
ators although they were entitled to
work as they were next on the
waiting list" They claimed COM
pensation for the time of their idle
ness The company refused to pay
their claims. They appealed to the
arbitrator of the southwestern dis
trict which includes Arkansas, Okla
homa, Kansas, Missouri and Texas.
The arbitrator found in favor of the
men.
The operators still refused to pay
the claims, and according to the rules
governing the miners and operators,
this it is said, is sufficient ground for
a walk out
