Special to the NeWs'
 1ittle Rock. March 26.-Now the only question is Clarke's majority. coutbeast Arkansas and other count jos who were returning large Kirby maiorities last night, have shrunk so tOday that they can no longer stand m with the overwhelming Clarke ma iorities from Western border and East Arkansas.
 While Kirby is not conceding, claiming the election by five thousand votes, figures indicate that Clarke is winner by a majority of from seven to ten thousand. Ouachita, Drew, Calhoun, Grant, Saline and Cleveland counties, counted on as top-heavy for Kirby, gave him less than one hundred majority each Clarke, Dallas, Ash lev and Bradley, considered as certain heavy vote for Kirby, have swung by narrow margin into the Clarke col umn
 Clarke lost one county eastern tier, between Missouri and Louisiana, Greene, this county counted for Clarke last night reporting a landslide for Kirby, but estimates today reduce it materially, Pope county, counted on by Kirby for one thousand goes for him by less than two hundred Clarke's majorities have today exceed ed estimate all along the line, and if Kirby was given every vote in Mil , Ter, Howard, Hampstead, and Little River counties, he could not material y change the result, but Clarke boiled asurprising majority in these counties Fort Smith today announced seven hundred for Clarke, Sebastian county going for Clarke by one thousand votes.
 Mccain, Cook, Mcknight, and T. E' Wood, in Northeastern Arkansas, are apparent winners. Goodwin and oidheld are winners for Congress.

MUTUAL'S THEATRE
 PLEASES NEW YORK

A stir has been created in New York City by the action of the Mu- tual Film Corporation in opening a theatre in the heart of theatrical America to show it's own feature mo- tion pictures. The theatre in ques- tion, Weber's in Broadway, near Thirtieth Street, was opened but re- gently with program consisting of a motion picture powerful drama, four reels in length, called "The Gangsters of New York" and a one reel comedy produced by the Key stone Company.
 These pictures were presented as a theatrical attraction is presented, and at prices that make them direct competitors of attractions on the speaking stage. The motion pie lures as presented constitute an evenings entertainment. No ef- fort is made to change the bill daily or weekly. Again this form of entertainment parallels the strictly theatrical for the pictures now play ing will continue to be presented un- til it is felt wise to discontinue them in favor of other equally pretentious productions.
 The unusual plan of the Mutual Film Corporation has proved a great success. This is felt to be largely due to the character of the motion pictures presented. "The Gangsters of New York" for instance, is powerful four part drama, featuring players we'll known from their asso- citation with Mutual Movies, among whom are Henry B. Walthall, John Dillon, Ralph Lewis and AliceGi-:i Dillon, Frank Herzog, Consuelo Bailey, Ralph Lewis, and Alice Horine.
 But the picture bases its principal appeal on it's gripping and dramatic story and the strong theme with which it deals. Life in the crowded East Side and the resultant evils, such as the formation of gangs, the evolution of the gun men, and the exception of disease, such as cons sumption and tuberculosis, together with the emancipation of body and mind because the inhabitants of the congested districts must live either by sweat shop slavery or by their wits are faithfully barred on the screen. Then at the end of the drama comes the contrast--life in the coun- try, clean and wholesome. This pie ture was produced under the direction of James kirkwood.
 The Mutual Film Corporation has other motion pictures pretentious enough to warrant their following "The Gangsters of New York" Among them is the Single Stand ard" or "The Battle of the Sexes" the first Griffith film to be made by the Mutual Movies. It was produced by D. w. Griffith, the highest salar jed motion picture producer of the present day, a man who receives more than $100,000 a year for super vising the production of Mutual Nov ies.
