ENGLISH PEOPLE VERY BUSY
DR.. Kirghis, Formerly of this City,
Writing From England, Finds
British in Favor of War.

DIR. A. ]. Kirghis, formerly of Sank
Centre, now of st. Cloud, who left
several weeks ago on business trip
to France, writes from England that
he finds the British much in favor of
war. The letter was received by Mrs.
Kirghis and the st. Cloud Times
makes comment as follows:
Mrs. DR.. Kirghis is in receipt of
a letter from her husband. DIR. A. j.
Kirghis, who left about month ago
for France. The letter was written
on October 9Th at Folkestone, Eng
land, where the Doctor was waiting
at that time for an opportunity to
secure passage on ship to take him
to the French coast. He stated in
the letter that he would have to go
by way of Dieppe. Owing to the
requisition by the government of near
ly all passenger boats for the trans
portation of troops between England
and France, the passenger service is
very much restricted. The Doctor
says in his letter that Folkestone is
filled with troops and that he noticed
a large contingent of Canadian
forces. 'It is as difficult to get off a
boat these days as it is to get onto
one," writes the Doctor. every pas
senger is subjected to rigid examina-
ton and innumerable questions must
be answered. l not only had to have
my passport vised but had to be pho
tographed a second time and had to
provide myself with special permit
to travel through the war zone as the
course of my journey is designated.
People in the United States can form
no opinion of the state of things over
here during this war. Contrary to
my expectations, business, however,
does not appear to be seriously inter-
fered with. As a matter of fact, peo-
pie seem to be more busy than usual
and find them very enthusiastic and
much in sympathy with the war;"

BILL SEEKS TO
CURTAIL CRIME
Tennessee Extends Concurrent Jur.
isdiction to Arkansas Regarding
Mississippi River

Nashville, Tenn, May 8.-Tha
house yesterday passed bill in
troduced by Representative McClan-
ahan of Upton county. giving Ten.
nessee jurisdiction over all criminal
cases on the Mississippi river to
the Arkansas bank.
The measure Is direct outcome
of the assassination of Deputy Sher-
iff James w Stewart of Upton
county, last Saturday on Island 81.
Bob Kenton, alleged operator of
blind tiger on the island. for whom
Deputy Stewart had a warrant, is
charged with the murder of the Of
ficer. Kenton fled and has so far
eluded pursuit.
Representative McClanahan ex-
pressed himself as being much ex-
ercised over the death Of the off,
GER He believes his measure, which
received vote of 81 to Is, will re-
duce to great extent the blind IT,

sissippi river. He says his bill ex-
tends operations of the four mile
law, the custer law and all other
prohibition measures, as well as the
criminal statutes, across the Missis-
sippi river to the Arkansas shore.
In 1909 the Arkanas legislature
enacted law giving Tennessee jur-
isdiction over all criminal cases to
the Arkansas line when the state OF
Tennessee passed similar law CIV
ing Arkansas the same jurisdiction
to the Tennessee bank.
Accordingly Arkansas has crimi-
nal jurisdiction over the entire Mis-
sissippi river between her borders
just as Tennessee has. This is done
to prevent offender from esca ping
punishment in Tennessee when the
state is unable to prove in Just
what half of the river the offense
occurred
The McClanahan bill was vigor-
ously opposed by the Shelby county
delegation.

PRESIDENT DRAFTS STIFF
NOTE TO GERMAN KAISER
Wilson Does Not Believe Stand Necessarily
Means War, But Seriousness of Sutua-
tion Now Hinges Entirely On
Berlin's Attitude.

yesterday centered in the nature
of the reception the document will
be given by the Imperial German
government.
Persons who usually reflect the
views of the German Embassy at
tempted to ally the suspicion that
Germany had deliberately tried
to destroy the Lusitania to draw
the United States into the war.
Although not in complete tone
with their government, the Ger
man officials were desirous of CIV
ing the impression that the last
thing Germany seeks is an open
break with the United States.
Whether the reception of the
American note will give force to
this assurance or aggrieve an al
ready strained relationship is a
matter that may only be guessed
at until the German reply is re-
ceived.

DUNCAN SPEAKS
FOR THE STATE
Argument in Carpenter Murder
Case Begun This Morning
Court Room Filled.

Ramsey Duncan of Blytheville,
deputy prosecuting attorney, open
ed the argument in the Carpenter
murder trial at nine-forty-five this
morning, and when court adjourn
ed at twelve-five, the speaker had
not concluded his presentation of
the states side of the famous case.
Mr.. Duncan has been one of the at
torneys for the state in all the
hearings and trials in the Carpen-
ter case, and is, perhaps, more fa
miliar with every minute detail of
the proceedings than any other at
torney connected with either side
of the suit His address to the ju-
ry this morning was powerful
presentation of the incriminating
circumstances surrounding Carpen-
ter.
The speakers who will follow
Mr.. Duncan are A. G. Little for the
defense, Virgil Green for the state,
R. E. L. Johnson and N. F. Lamb
for the defense, and Prosecuting
Attorney Huddleston for the state
While interest in the testimony
was not as keen at the trial this
time as at the former hearing in
December, the speeches by the at
torneys have proved a big drawing
card, especially to the ladies. This
morning nearly half the large aud
fence that heard Mr.. Duncan was
composed of ladies and an even lar
ger per centage of the spectators
this afternoon is ladies'
Judge Gautney instructed the ju-
ry that under the new law passed
by the recent general assembly, a
life sentence in the state peniten-
tiary may be given as the penalty
instead of death by hanging, if the
jury decides the defendant is gull
ty. Attorneys for Carpenter took
exception to these instructions and
should the jury find Carpenter gull
ty and give him a life sentence.
the instructions would constitute
one Of the grounds for an appeal to
the supreme court.
