NEW, BANK PLANS
 AT STANDS7ILL
Failure of Bank Clerks to Vote for Re investing
 Causes Delay.

The failure of the Bank Clerks In vestment company to decide at meeting Thursday night to liquidate the affairs of that corporation and re-invest in the proposed banking company which is expected to be or ganized to take over the business of the Bank of Pine Bluff appears to have caused delay in the plans for completing the formation of the new banking company.
 While none connected with the movement for the organization of the banking company would discuss the situation yesterday and continued to maintain an optimistic attitude, the fact that no call for meeting of the stockholders of the Bank of Pine Bluff was issued yesterday indicates there has been hitch in the plans.
 Considerable opposition to liquid ating the affairs of the Bank Clerks Investment company developed at the Thursday night meeting, a humber of 1 the stockholders expressing them selves as being perfectly satisfied with the regular dividends of per cent. they have received on their in vestment, and expressing doubt as to the wisdom of withdrawing funds from successful enterprise to rein i vest i1 new venture-even though that be bank with a promising op- portunity.

PAGE FINDS CROP t
 CONDITIONS BAD

Little Rock, July 25.-Commlsslon- CT John H. Page has returned from a general tour of the State and re- ports crops very spotted. In some sections bumper crops are being raised, and in others the crops are almost a total failure.
 In Washington County the apple crop is so abundant that it is break ing down the trees, but the peach crop is scarce there, as it is scarcely all over the state. The grain, hay and corn crops are fine in that sec ton, and there are good yields of grapes and cantaloupes.
 In Sharp County the crops have suffered greatly on account of the drouth, and there will be very little corn. -
 The same conditions are true prac- tically in Lawrence, Craighead, 'Poin- sett. Monroe and Cross. Crops arc fairly good in Arkansas, and the rice prospects are especially fine.
 All the crops look we'll in Jefferson County. Ia many of the counties portions have good prospects, and in the other seNions-the drouth has greatly damaged the crops.

TWICE IN WEEK
 LOSES $90O PIN
Fiveasl RecOvers Brooch from Negro Porter When Lost Second
 Time on Train.

Night Chief of Police w. D. Five ash last night received a reward of $50 for recovering diamond set brooch belonging to Sunshine Stoner, which was lost yesterday morning on a Cotton Belt train. The brooch is valued at $900.
 This was the second time within the course of week that the pin had been lost. About a week ago when the owner of the jewel was at Texarkana she misplaced it, but it was later found and she sent a messenger for it. Arriving in the city yesterday the messenger looked in his pocket for it and discovered that it had been lost. The loss was at once reported to Chief Fiveash, who within an hour afterwards handed over the jewel to it's owner.
 The messenger told Chief Fiveash that he thought that he lost the jewel while he was wasing his hands in the toilet. The chief at once went to the shops where the car was being cleaned and seeing the porter de- manded of him the lost brooch. After hesitating for several seconds the negro asked the description of the jewel and when the chief described the pin the negro went to greasy jumper, produced the broch and hand ed it over, saying, This is the only thing I found, l ant seed no diam ond."

NEGRO SHOOTS
 SHERRlLL MAN
Preston Johnson Is Wound ed in Shoulder by John
 Freeman

sherrill, Ark, July 24.-Preston Johnson, agent for John w. Gibson on his plantation near the city, was shot and probably seriously wounded late this afternoon by John Free man, aged 50, negro farm hand under Mir. Johnson.
 MT. J.Johnson and the negro en- gagged in an argument about some work on the plantation which the negro failed to do, and after several heated words, the negro secured a gun and shot the agent in the shoulder. A physician was immedi- ately called, but it could not be de- termined how serious the wound was at that time.
 The negro made good his escape following the shooting, and at late hour tonight had not yet been appre- hended. Officers in all the surround ing towns have been notified to be on the lookout for him.

 While the blacks were saying "come seben" Night Chief of Police w. F. Fiveash was instructing Roundsmen Graves and Robinson to go "yonder" and bring back >"seben." Seven they brought and against each of them was lodged a charge of gam- ing, for gaming they were.
 Shortly after dark last evening the chief got the tip that a "crap' game was in operation in the Twenty-two hundred block on West Sixth Avenue, near the Sawyer-Austin lumber com pany's plant. The roundsmen were sent to the scene and seven negroes were seen on their knees trying to "hit the lick" Those who were unable to post forfeits of $1O were forced to remain "inside" for the night.
 The party was composed of Sam Young, Minor Gatson, Henry John son, Will Roggers, Alex Jones, B. Kebles and Tom Twine. The latter three furnished forfeits of $10 each and were rdeleased. They will be given a hearin gin police court this morning.
