SPRINGS AND SURFACE
 WELLS CAUSE TYPHOID

Little Rock, Dec. 3.-Bauxite, just below Little Rock, where the mines of the American Aluminium Company are located, contemplates the erection of high school building next year. Dr. w. c. Garrison, State Health officer, visited Bauxite this week at the solicitation of the Company, to eX- anime into the causes of about twen- ty-five cases of typhoid fever during the past summer. We found that all the cases originated where the victims drank water from springs and surface wells. There was no infection where hydrant water was used exclusively. The company agrees to spend consid- erable money in extending the water system, and will probably put in a sewer system.

lTTRACTING ATTEN-
 TON OF CAPITALIST
cas Excitement and High Price of Zinc Ore in Sebastian and Adiacent Counties Causing Great Activity Over State.

Tho oas excitement in Sebastian and ,d;acent counties, and the high price 4 zinc ore from the mines of North Arkansas are attracting the attention of many capitalists from Little Rock and other parts of the state. These two industries are providing a finan- cial increment that will mean much in connection with the New Agri- culture and the greatly increased amount of business in. the woodwork ing industries.
 There is much local interest in the outcome of the Kibler find, as it is believed that oil and gas will be dis covered in district much larger than tbe restricted area which has been supplying the local needs of Fort Smith and Van Buren. Many leases are being taken, and the opinion pre- yails that should the field prove to be all that is now indicated, pipe line will be built down the Arkansas, serv- ing Little Rock and intermediate towns, and probably being carried to Memphis. This would be most des- irabe adjunct to the present supply from the Caddo fields.
 The zinc fields are also engaging the attention of many of our citizens, some of whom have holdings that have been valued at hundreds of thou sands of dollars. Many are already reporting splendid returns in divi- dends. One of the latest Little Rock citizens to become interested in the nc-mining game is John F. Fuller, state mineralogist, who has organized Sl0O,000 stock company for the pur- pee of developing mining properties in Boone, Newton and Marion coun- ties. He has removed his family to 0lvey, from Jonesdale, Pa.

REACTION APPEARS
 AND PRICES GO OF
Disposition to Even Up Causes Prices to Sag.-ClOse Barely Steady at Net Decline of 9 to 13 Points.

New York, Dec. 2.-The action of the cotton market here today was re- garded by local traders as refecting a disposition to even up commitments for over the weekend, the converting of Congress and the government re- ports of next week. Some reaction ary sentiment also appeared to have been developed by yesterdays ad- vance into new high ground for the movement and prices sagged off with January contracts selling down from 12.49c to 12.30c. The close was bare ly steady, at net decline of to 13 points, or at the lowest level of the day.
 The market opened steady at an ad- vance of 6 to 2 points, with the active months selling about 2 to points net higher right after the call, in sympa- thy with relatively firm cables and bullish overnight spot advices from the South. There was not much demand in evidence, however, while there seemed to be considerable cotton for sale around 12.78c for March and 12.9Sc for May.
 Prices rallied slightly at time dur ing the day on covering or bullish spot advices, but each bulge seemed to meet long cotton and prices showed generally downward tendency in the absence of any aggressive support, with March selling at 1260c and May at 12.7Sc in the late trading.
 There seemed to be no change in the general character of the news from the South. Uncertainty as to the showing of both the census ginning report and the governments estimate next week undoubtedly promoted the tendency to hquidate scattering long commitment, however, the unsettled ruling of the stock market appeared to operate in the same direction.
