RECEIVER OF BIG BAYOU LUMBER CD.
 FILES REPORT
B. w. Benton Expects to Pay All Except Unsecur-
 ed Claims of $8,OOO.

B. w. Benton, receiver in the case of Henry Kruse ct al. vs. Big Bayou Lumber company, filed report in the chancery court stating that he had operated the plant on the Pine Bluff & Arkansas River railway, near Swan Lake; had paid off one lien for $33S, another for $848, and paid to bank all money borrowed except $1,65O. The receiver says he has enough lum- Der on hand to pay off this debt. A lien for $612.50 and claims for labor amounting to $1,000 are the only pre- ferred claims yet unpaid. MT. Ben ton reports, however, there are about sS,000 of unsecured claims which he has not done anything with. He re- ported he has advertised the plant for sale, but has been unable to interest anyone because there is a question over the ownership of the land on which the mill is located. MT. Ben ton says that lowing to the advance in lumber interests" he believes he will be able to dispose of the Dlont for enough to satisfy the claims for labor, the machinery liens and costs of court, but cannot say whether there will be very much, if anything, left with which to pay unsecured claims, as he has often offered the place for sale, subject to confirmation by the court, for $2,500.

TO HAVE MOTOR PATROL
 IN SHORT TIME
Council Authorizes Board of Public Affairs to Spend
 $55O.

The Pine Bluff police department is to be equipped in the very near fu- ture with an automobile police patrol, the city council last night having re- fcrred the matter to the board of pub lie affairs, which was authorized to expend not to exceed $550 in the mat ter.
 Nothing definite was announced as to what action the board is likely to take in the matter, but because the subject has already been thoroughly discussed in unofficial manner, it is expected the board will meet within the next two or three days and ar range for the purchase of the appa- ratus. z,
 ; Alderman Frank Franey, chairman of the police committee of the coun- ell, brought up the matter, and offer ed the resolution referring it to the board of public affairs. Mr. Franey stated the present patrol wagon is almost ready for the discard, while the horse used to haul 1t is needed by the street department, which is lending it to the police department. To purchase new wagon and new lAOISc. WILL luVOlVC O SA penditure. he said, and, inasmuch as the automobile will be much less ex- pensive to maintain, while it will give greater and better service, he urged the purchase of the auto apparatus.
 There was no objection on the part of other members of the council, and 1t was evident all of them are ac- quaintedf with the need for the new wagon, and especially for vehicle capable of making quick runs to long distances, at any time and without loss of precious time.
 Because arrangements had been made unofficially in advance, it is understood the. board of public af- fairs Is likely to purchase the appa- ratus and put it into service today. It will not be regular police patrol but will be roomy car. equipped for general service.
