PINE BLUFF DEPOT
 SQUABBLE STATUS
Chamber of Commerce Off cials Know Nothing of Re
 ported Compromise.

The controversy between citizens oi Pine Bluff and the Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt railroads in regard to the petition from Pine Bluff for new de- pot or improvements on the old Union station was settled yesterday at a meeting of the railroad commission by a compromise agreement of the two railroads, says the Little Rock Gazette of yesterday.
 While declining to build a new de- pot, the roads agreed to make im- provements on the old one, which, it is thought, will be satisfactory to the people of Pine Bluff. The improve ments planned include a pavilion 300 feet in length on the south side of the depot, the platform underneath to be paved with brick. The white waiting room will be enlarged and smaller pavilion will be constructed on the north side of the station for negroes.

INTO DEATH TRAP
REBELS WERE LURED
Struggle For Possession Of
TOrreon
5000 KILLED FIGHTING
Fate of Mexico Is Believed to Hinge
on Great Battle Going on Around
Torreon--Captured Federals Are
Executed.

| An official message from the front
states that fighting is still going on
for the possession of Torreon.
The telegram says the rebels now
hold all positions except the main
barracks and two smaller barracks.
1t is reported that General Villa took
Cerro de La Cruz and the Torreon
foundry.
Another telegram admits rebel
loss in the last six days of 900 killed
and wounded, and places the federal
loss at 1000. As there already are
at chihuahua 500 wounded, the re-
port of rebel losses is thought to have
been minimized., Among the rebel
wounded is General Tomas Urbina
1t is said that private soldiers
taken prisoners are being taken into
the rebel ranks, but their officers are
executed, unless they take the oath
of allegiance to the constitutionalist
cause. All irregular troops in the
federal garrison are executed on cap
ture.
A German military observer who
arrived at Juarez from the front said J:
"The federal army lured us right
into Gomez Palacio, a suburb to the
north of Torreon, before they opened
Are Then they let loose such a hail
Of rife and machine gun shot as
would have completely demoralized
an ordinary Mexican army. The men
fell by the score. A cotton bale plat
form by the railroad tracks was so
covered with dead rebels that one
could not walk across 1t without step
ping on a body. General villa had
such large army that he felt he
could afford to sacrifice many men to
get foothold."

.INTERURBANLTNE TO
CENTRAL FLORIDA
Jacksonville TO Orlando Pro-
posed Project
EXPERT REVIEWS ROUTE
Canadian Capital Is Said to Be In
terested in New Railroad Scheme
Which Will Aid Much in Develop
ing Central Part OF Florida.

Again there is talk of the con-
structi0n of an interurban line out OF
Jacksonville. This time the line Is
to run to the central part of the
state. The cities of Orlando, Kissim-
! NEE and Sanford are included. The
last rumor is to the effect that some
Canadian capitalists are interested In
the proposition.
This road is to connect up with
that started by I. X. Miller, of Pitts
burg, and associates. That company
went SO far as to get right OF way
between Kissimmee and Orlando, but
the road was never built. The new
proposition is for the Canadian capi-
talists to acquire the rights Of the old
company and so ahead with the plans
and actually construct the road. 1t
has just come to light that not more
than two weeks ago the yice-presi-
dent Of one Of the largest electric
traction companies operating In the
Dominion OF Canada visited Orlando,
and to friend who resides there
commented upon the growth OF the
city and it's possibilities. He re-
marked: 1.-THE city win never be
much larger, win it, located here in
the center Of the state?" "Oh, yes"
said the friend, cit ii not only grow
ing rapidly now, but When the pro-
posed Sanford Orlando Kissimmee
electric railway is built 1t will grow
much faster"
The mention Of the electric line
put the ball In motion, ard the Cana
dian at once Showed renewed inter-
est, for 1t later developed that he was
out on mission Of looking for new
electrical development, the company
he represents having large surplus
to be Invested In new lines. New in
terest was shown in the town, and
the gentleman began at once to make
Investigations. lie hired an automo-
bile, made a trip to Sanford, and then
to Kissimmee, going over the entire
territory covered by the proposed line.
Since returning to Canada he has
written his frieifd, asking him to get
all the Information possible as to
right Of way, where 1t would pass
through Orlando. and what terms the
old organization would make to a
company who would build the line.

CLOSING STRUGGLE
OVER CANAL TOLLS
Legislative Climax In
Congress
AN ORATORICAL CONTEST
No Issue in Many Years Has So Ex-
cited the American Congress as
Has. the Controversy Over Canal
Tolls.

No legislative issue of recent years
has excited congress as has the con-
troversy over repeal of the toll eX-
emptiOn clause of the Panama canal
act. Last weeks events, which put
on record breach in the solidarity
of the Democratic party, have caused
no end of conflicting political predic-
tions to increase the tensity of inter-
est in the subject. The situation is
one fraught with many complica-
tions.
Oratorical strife over the repeal
has been renewed. In the senate dis
cussion will revolve around one Of the
many issues that have arisen, Sena-
tor James Hamilton Lewis proposing
to discuss a resolution and bill he has
introduced to follow repeal as a sort
of balm to the wounds of his party
members, who thus far have opposed
the president.
Senator Lewis measure would give
the president authority to suspend
tolls whenever he should d0Nm it in
the public interest so to do. The
Illinois senator will cite a long series
of precedents on which he bases the
right of congress to extend such au-
thority to the chief executive. As
against the proposal of Senator Lew
is, the minority leader, Senator Gal
linger, will urge resolution he in
troduced last week which would ex-
press it as the sense of Americans
that congress has the right to do as
1t pleases with respect to American
shipping through the Panama canal.
In the house opposing leaders are
setting the stage for the final strug
ing. the closing hours of the debate
and the final roll call will rival in SEN
sational enthusiasm any legislative
climax in recent Years.

Florida has been given an excep-

fact, many of the wealthy middle

ging for the location which was
granted Florida for the erection OF a
building representing the famous old
fertilization. The managers OF the
exposition realize the Importance OF
putting the beautiful buildings where
they will be seen. and for that reason
Florida was given the special loca-

NO TRACE OF GIRL.
Disappearance of Catherine Winter
Still Mystery.


One year has come and gone since
the disappearance of Catherine Win
ters, the nine-year-old daughter OF
DR.. and Mrs. w. A. Winters, Of New
Castle, Ind.
Though hundreds of clues have
been investigated, and though DR..
Winters has impoverished himself In
the search, the mystery is as impene-
trable today as 1t was year ago. DIR.
Winters still appears confident that
Catherine win be found. He still
cherishes the theory that she was kid
naped, and believes, with many 9TH
ers, that gypsies were responsible,
though all attempts to locate gypsy
bands near New Castle at that time
failed.
Reports bearing evidence of plausi-
bility have come from all parts of the
United States to the effect that the
Winters child was found, or that per-
sons had confessed the kidnapping,
but under the personal Investigation
of DR.. Winters or local authorities
they were disproved. The disappear
mace was just prior to the disastrous
floods of last spring, and some believe
the little girl was drowned and
swept away by the waters.

Frank A. Munsey, Owner OF
Munsey's Magazine, in an Article
written on his return from visit
to Florida, gives expression to an
opinion as to this states present
and future possibilities. The ar
ticle is as follows:
Florida is one Of the busiest,
most enterprising and most pros
porous of American States. lts
towns and cities have in five years
doubled their size. No other
state produces so much phosphate,
cypress lumber, rosin or turpen-
tine. No other state makes so
many Havana cigars or grows 50
much long staple cotton. And
perhaps no other region in any
part Of the world, has SO happy
a blending of the joys OF life with
the business energy that creates
material progress and modern
civilization.
"Men are now finding gold IN
Florida, not in mines, but IN the
forests, farms, fisheries and fac
tories. Not all the gold that was
found in Nevada and Arizona last
year for instance would equal the
wealth that went to Florida for
