JITNEY SERVICE TO
 FORT LOGAN ROOTS
From Little Rock Doing Land Office Business-All Compan- ies Expected to Reach Fort by Friday Morning.

Little Rock, June 29.-Jitney ser vice between Little Rock and Fort Logan II. Roots- has now been estab- lished and they are doing a land of flee business, for most of the people about Little Rock with nothing to do, take a trip to the mobilization camp and all the militiamen who can secure an excuse, beat it for town to watch the twinkle of the electric lights and feel the cooling red soda as it sizzles down their heated gullets.
 Only one or two companies now re- main out. and they will be in camp by Friday morning. All have been re- cruited to the peace strength of 66 men, and although they lack ,.Quip- Iment, they are ordered to the fort for that purpose. Some of the men arriv- ing with companies have been clad in overalls, and others have worn the regulation clothing, with derby or slouch hat It does not take long to make them at least look like soldiers when they reach the post, where drill ing seven hours day is the regular program. This soon makes them act, as well as look the part.
 Seventy-tive transport wagons have been set up on the west end of the Capitol grounds, just outside the ar senal, and it gives a sure enough war like appearance Mules to safely con vey these ships of the desert oyer arld Mexican soil will be purchased in Ar kansas, for a Missouri mule would hardly understand the commands of an honest to goodness Arkansas team ster.

tilities Gen. Trevino's preparations to hold the railroads would avail him little, as the efficacy of the motor truck in the Mexican territory has been demonstrated by Gen. Pershing's forces again and again.
 For the second time within a week, Juarez, the Mexican town across the Rio Grande, was practically evacuat- ed by Carranza troops, only Gen. Francisco Gonzales, commandant, and a small body-guard remaining in the city. It was asserted that about ,000 men, including the command of Gen. Jose Flores, left Juarez in the last 24 hours for Villa Ahumada, from which place they are to be distributed to the various Carranzista concentration camps. &tgss
 Civilians, many of them in new American clothes, indicating that they had crossed the border at Carranza' $ recent call, mounted guard at the commandancia, the customs house and the international bridges. Also doing sentry duty were numbers of peons fresh from the ranches, their Tapping sombreros and sandalled feet being lin striking contrast to the dapper clothing of the comrades in arms.
 Carranzistas Cause Worry.
 Andres Garcia, Mexican consul to Fl Paso, tonight issued statement in which he explained that his reason for remaining in Juarez during the crisis was to remove every possible chance of friction. He admitted also, however, that he felt safer in the Mexican town.
 Gen. Bell" he said, has offered to put a guard about my house in Fl Paso and l have full confidence in the American authorities, but since 1 was routed out of bed and insulted in my own house not long ago by squad of police at l o'clock in the morning l have feared that my presence in Fl Paso might start trouble.
 Every effort of mine is bent on removing causes of friction at this point with view to easing negotia- tions between the first chief and the White House"

MAY HOLD ON TILL
 JANUARY FIRST
Dr. BledsOe May Retain Super intendency Until Dr. Brough Becomes GovernOr-Case Will Reach Supreme Court.

The dispute between the Board of Charities and Dr. E. P Bledsoe, the superintendent of the state hospital, will not come into court again before Monday, a further continuance being granted until that time by Judge Guy Fulk in Pulaski Circuit Court. The continuance was granted because of the absence of a material witness for Dr. Bledsoe.
 It now looks as though Dr. Bledsoe will be able to hold on until January l, when Gov. C. II. Brough will take the oath of office in spite of the Board of Control. The case cannot get into the Supreme Court, where the loser is sure to take it, before it adjourns for the summer vacation. The court will not reconvene until in September. It will take a month or more to go the usual course, and an application for rehearing, which will take another week or two, would take the matter almost up to January 1. No one can predict what will happen after that time, for Dr. Brough may appoint new members of the Board, asking for the resignations of those now composing it, or he may ask the leg stature to make a complete change in the system of handling the state in- stitutions.
