UNITY WAS SHOWN
 BY COMMONERS
Nationalist Leader, John Red mOnd, Pledged Support and Was Followed by Sir Edward Carson and Vim. O'Brien.

London, May 25.-The house of commons has rarely seen a demon stration of greater unity than was displayed this afternoon when lead CTS of all factions focked to the standard of the prime minister to achieve settlement of the Irish question.
 MT. Asquith's speech took an unex- pected turn, for instead of giving de- tails, he made an earnest plea for the settlement of the Irish question by agreement among the contending par ties in Ireland, and announced that David Lloyd George had taken the delicate task of bringing the factions together. The premier concluded with an appeal that all debate be sus- pended in view of the adverse effect such an argument might have.
 John Redmond, the Nationalist leader, acquiesced in the premier's re- quest MT. Redmond was followed by his political arch enemy, Sir Edward Carson, who rendered his support to the proposition, and by the Independ- ent Irish leader William O'Brien, who did likewise The speeches effective ly obliterated party lines for the mo- ment.

PRICES FALL OFF
 ON N. Y. MARKET
General Selling Causes Decline Close is 12 to 21 Points DOwn-RepOrt of Increase in Acreage Was Not Confirmed.

New York, May 25.-The cotton market was extremely nervous and irregular during today's trading. After selling at 12.89 early, October con tracts broke to 12.76, but rallied to 12.86 and closed at 12.83, with the general list closing barely steady at a net decline of F to 21 points The general selling movement was attrib- uted to improveing weather and crop accounts, but old crop longs were transferring into later deliveries and new crop months were relatively firm at the close
 After opening barely steady at a decline of 10 to Is points there were slight rallies on buying attracted by the sharp rally of the previous day, but there was scattered southern sell ing here and prices soon weakened. It was reported that Texas interests were lquidating July contracts in New Orleans, accounting for the weakness there, while both Liverpool ana New OrlednS were SeIlerS around the local ring and there was active liquidation as well as scattered local pressure.
 Rumors that returns to crop re- porting bureau indicated an increase of 12.7 per cent in acreage and a con- dition of SOC per cent was not con- firmed, but evidently exercised some influence on the decline, which carried the active months 20 to p points net lower during the middle of the day, with July selling at 12.73 and Decem- Der at 12.91.
 As had been the case yesterday, trade interests were good buyers around the 12 3-4 level, however, while offerings diminished after the heavy liquidation of the forenoon and prices rallied some or 10 points from the lowest during the afternoon.
 Cotton closed barely steady.

 SONS DURING WEEK
rryinq to Finish Administration
 Shipping Bill Which Passed
 saturday by Party Vote s50O0O for Red Near Patton.

Washington, D. C., May 26.-Con- rress has been hard at work this 'rook The House has held night ses- .;ons irving to finish the administra- i'm shipping bill which passed Sat urday, May 2Oth, by party vote. In tho Senate the debate has been con- timed on the Rivers and Harbors bill ou amendments of the Senate com mittee reached so far have been adopted by votes so decisive that all possibility of defeat for the measure in the upper House is passed. One of the notable changes made by the Senate was an item for repair of Iovees on Red river in Arkansas and Texas north of Fulton, Ark The item for this stretch of the river be- ing increased from $25,000 to $50,000. The Senate passed joint resolution authorizing the President to invite the Latin American republics to par ticpate in the Texas bi-centennial and Pan-American Exposition at San Antonio, Texas, in November, 1918.
 Hearings have been conducted by Senate committee on the proposition for construction of government rail- road to the Alaskan coal fields.
 The appropriations committee of the House reported the Sundry Civil Bill containing many miscellaneous items for paying expenses of the gov emment and carrying on various gov emmental activities. Among other things are items for constructing or continuing construction of public build mgs at the following places: Altus, Okla, Blackwell, Okla, Cameron, Tex, Bay City, Tex, Durant, Okla, Fordyce, Ark. Holly Springs, Miss, Marlin, Tex, Mena, Ark, Nacog- doches, Tex, Oklahoma City, Orange, Tex, Prescott, Ark. Rogers, Ark, Shawnee, Okla, Tulsa, Okla, Yoa- kum, Tex, Woodward, Okla. The total appropriation carried for all purposes is $127,00O,O00.

single term of six years has been re- vived, this time by Congressman Emerson, republican member of Ohio. Other bills have been intro duced to increase the term of Con gressmen to four years.
 Keen disappointment is expressed here at the slowness and failure of the militia of the states of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The War Department has been forced to with draw the Sixth Cavalry from the in teror of Mexico to assist in strength ening the border patrol.
 There is a growing sentiment here that the President will soon offer his services to the belhgerents in Europe in an effort to bring about peace and that his good offices will be accepted.

LEGISLATURE EXPECT
 ED TO RESTORE FUND
Bureau of Education. Washing ton, Advised President Fut- rall Step is Necessary for Con- tinuance of Federal Aid.

Little Rock, May 25.-The Bureau of Education at Washington has ad- vised the President of the University of Arkansas, Prof. J. C. Futrall, that the next Legislature will be expected to restore the University endowment fund, which has been greatly impaired if the institution is to continue to re- ceive federal appropriations.
 This fact has been made public in the annual report of President Flu trail, which was today submitted to the Board of Trustees The Bureau has agreed not to press the matter until after the next Legislature, but insists that provision must then be made for repayment into the Endow- ment fund of sums that have been taken from it, and that the Legis- lature must also provide for the pay ment of the difference between in- terest at the rate of per cent and , per cent for the time elapsed since the bonds given by the county of Washington and the city of Fayette- vile were converted into state bonds paying only 3 per cent per annum. The total amount of back interest will be about $45,000. In addition. pro- vision must be made that hereafter the bonds of the University shall bear not less than per cent interest. Discussing the financial status of the University, the President says: "It must be admitted that the small appropriation received by the Uni versity for the biennial period begin ming July 1, 1915, has been a great hindrance in the development and management of the institution. Among other things, the entire appropriation for maintenance of the departments of the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Engineering, and some of the departments of the College of Agriculture were eliminated. No ap- propriation whatever was received for repairs or for upkeep of the grounds and buildings. In spite of the conditions that might result, how ever, it was determined that the ap- propriation actually received should not be exceeded, and that the Univer- sity should not have to go to the next Legislature asking for any deficit for this biennial period"
 Attention is also called to the fact that an additional dormitory for wo- men will be a necessity in the near fu- ture.
 Seventy-one of the 75 counties of the state and seven other states are represented in the student body. A group of a dozen counties in the southwestern portion of Arkansas sends more students than the same number in the northwestern part, eN- elusive of Washington. The report shows the total registration for the regular nine-month session to have been S14 This does not include those enrolled in summer sessions, cores
