CONVENT INSPECTION
 MEASURE UP AGAIN
Before Legislature in 1913 Providing for Inspection by Sheriff or Grand Jury of Hospitals, Reforma-
 tory Houses, Convents.

Little Rock, Jan. 27-The convent inspection measure which was before the Legislature in 1913 as the Posey olll, made its appearance in the House Tuesday afternoon over the signatures of Messrs Steed, Holland Posey, Mos ley, Halbert, Sheet, and Copeland of lzard. It provides for the inspection by the sheriff or grand jury of all public or private hospitals, reforma- tory homes, house of detention, con- vents, asylums, sectarian, seminaries, schools, or institutions, such inspec- tions may be made unannounced or upon the initiative of twenty persons and the investigators may interro- gate the inmates whether or not they are the subjects of voluntary confine- ment.
 The bill drew the fire of controver- sy with which it has always been met Representative Wilson when first reading was finished that it be indefi- iiiISiS pOoSpOllCd. IL WdS Nlldl SGu Dy Mir. Rogers of Logan that the measure is covert attck upon the Catholic Church. although no sect or denomina- tion is named in the bill. There is not Catholic member of the House. Mir. Robertson favored turning on the light" and said he belived a thor Iough investigation would find the Catholic Church unsullied in relation to it's schools and institutions.
 It would reach the institutions of all fraternal or religious organiza- tions.
 Speaker Sawyer was among those who opposed the bill, and Griffin of Pulaski spoke against it. At 4:30 o'clock the House adjourned with Mr. Griffin on the floor.

PREDOMINANT CAUSE
 CRIME DUE TOLIQUOR
Prosecuting Attorneys in Report With cut Exception, Say Majority of Crimes are Due Directly to
 the Liquor Traffic .

Litle Rock, Jan. 27.-Copies of the biennial report of Attorney General Moose a volume of $50 pages. were distributed among the members of the General Assembly Tuesday, In view of the intense prohibition agitation in the Legislature at the present time the following paragraph from his re- port is of more than passing interest.
 Tt is significant that, almost with out exception, the prosecuting attor- neys in their reports to this depart ment state that the predominant cause of crime is to be found in the liquor traffic. These officers of the law get information first hand. They do not make this statement voluntar- fly, but the question is asked them directly on the blank forms which are sent to each prosecuting attorney from this office. They could have no motive to state anything but the truth They are able and patriotic citizens, many of them are not prohibitionists, and their statements on this subject are entitled to great weight"

BILLS PENDING TO RE.
 STRICTL LIQUOR TRAFFIC
Freely Predicted that Both Bodies will Pass White Bill. Polls Taken of two Houses Said to Show Is
 in Senate, 70 in House

Little Rock, Jan. 27-Various bills are pending in both the House and Senate designed to restrict the liquor tsaffie It is freely predicted that both bodies will pass the White bill providing for statutory statewide prohibition. Polls taken of the two houses are said to show Is in the Senate and 70 in the House in favor of ate-wide prohibition. There are also several pending measures for the punishment of "blind- tigers" one of them by Woods of Sebastian pattern ed after the Tennessee Nuisance law" and another by Messrs. Crump and Belote, which provides that, "Any person found guilty of the illegal sale of any intoxicating liquors upon con viction shall be sentenced for not less than six months for the first otfense and not more than one year nor more more than three years for the second offense, in the State Penitentiary."

MoORE ELECTION BILL
 OPPOSE" BY SENATE
c..,u;ttee Reported that Bil! Do p.ss" with Amendment to Change Date Back to Fourth Week
 in March.

r;HIo Rock, Jan. 27.-Strenuous op- ,o,ition will Ec male to the passage Of .ho Moore election bill in the Senate, tho hill drafted by the committee ap-
 ,;r+od bv t." State Democratic Con uontion for that purpose, as indicated Tuesday afternoon when rapid fire of notions and counter n'oti0ns were n,odo on amendment; offered by the Committee on Elections. This com u;ttee reported with a recoGmenda- tion that the bill "do pass" with an amendment to change the date of pri- mary from May back to the old fourth week in March. The amendment was finally adopted by vote of 12 to Il, but the argument on the floor showed that the opposition was not entirely due to change in dates, but that there is animosity to the bill itself which is deep rooted, and will be fore ible when the bill comes up for pas sage.
 The Senate Tues5ly afternoon pass ed depository act for Cleburne coun- tv, one for each of the Sebastian coun- ty districts, q bill to extend the Red River levce district in Lafayette coun- ty. to require the Iron Mountain and Rock Island railroads to erect union depot at Malvern, depository for Hot Springs and Pike county, and memoralized Congress to make an ap- propriation to complete the lock and dam work on the White river. As all of these are House bills they now only require the signature of the governor to become laws.
 The Senate Tuesday afternoon had its first test on the repeal of the State Aid to High Schools. The bill was re- ported from the House and read once. Objection was made to a second read ing, and sustained which indicates that the Senate does not favor the repeal of the bill.

COTTON LESs ACTIVE
 BUT GAINS ARE MADE
Close Is 3 to 6 Points Net Higher After Irregular Fluctuations. Talk of Easier Spot Offer
 ings in Eastern Belt

New York, Jan. 26.-Cotton was somewhat less active today and fluc- tuations were irregular, but losses were more than recovered in the late trading and the close was very steady at net advance of 3 to points.
 The market opened steady at de- cline of 1 point on February, but gen. erally to points higher, in response to relatively steady cables, and the steady showing of the Southern spot markets late yesterday. There was some buying by houses with German connections, as we'll as scattered cov- support, but the demand was neither active nor aggressive, and after sell ing about 3 to points net higher, the market turned easier on reports that the Eastern belt was selling hedg- es here.
 The consequent break carried active months some to points under last nights closing figures. At this level selling became les; active and the market later rallied rather sharply on covering renewal of foreign buy ing and considerable demand from Wall street and Western sources, clos ing prices were practically the best of the day.
 Talk of easier spot offerings in tha Eastern belt was followed to some ex- tent by the declines officially reported in the markets at Savannah, Augusta and Norfolk, but Southern selling here was less active during the afternoon.
