CAPITOL COMMISSION
 FILES AMENDMENT
Specifics That Walls of Building Were Plastered Before Roof Was Put On-COncrete Floors Were Improperly Put in.

Little Rock, June 7.-The State Capitol Commission on Wednesday filed an amendment to it's complaint in the litigation with Caldwell X Drake, in which the section stricken out by the Board of Arbitration is .itemized. This section consists of claims amounting to $117,000 and was thrown out by the arbitratorS because there was nothing specified.
 The amended complaint specifies that the walls of the building were plasterel before the roof was put on, this state thus losing the value of the work the first time it rained; that the concrete floors were improperly put in and would not support the weight in the test; that the reinforcing of the floors was inadequate, and on and on, through the oft repeated cam paign charges of former Gov. Geo. w. Donaghey, which most voters can recite forward and backward
 The Board of Arbitration will now pass upon the States claim on it's merits at it's next sitting.

SHARP ADVANCE IN
 THE COTTON MARKET
Favorable War RumOrs Bring Prices to Close, II to 15 Points Up-LiverpOol Good Buyer of July and October.

New York, June 7.-There was a sharp advance in cotton during to- days late trading, with October sell ing up from 12.S6c to 13c, or 3S points above the low level of last week, and closing at 12.96c. The general list closed steady, II to 15 points higher Rumors of favorable war develop ments were circulating on the ad- vance, but appeared to be without confirmation and the demand was more generally attributed to covering on rather a less favorable view of weather conditions, reports of a more active spot demand in the Southwest and the failure of the favorable weekly weather summary to bring put heavier offerings.
 Liverpool was steady and the mar ket here opened firm at an advance of 6 to II points. Liverpool was a good buyer of July and October, but also seemed to be selling some January and March, which probably accounted for little irregularity right after the call, but after the call reactions of or points steadied up with active months selling 9 to 12 points net higher. After the close abroad the volume of business tapered off and prices turned a shade easier in antici- patton of the weekly weather report The close was a few points off from the best, under realizing.
 Cotton closed steady.

Inaugurate Movement to Change Histories Taught in Schools Daughters Want Accuracy Concerning War 1S6l-1S65.

Little Rock, June 7..The Daugh- tcrs of the Confectionery in Little Rock have maugurated statewide move ment to make a change in histories taught in the schools of Arkansas. The Sons of Confederate Veterans have been requested to assist in the movement and consented.
 There are a number of histories be- ing taught in Arkansas schools which devote the greater part of the section given the war of 1S61-1S65 to the feats performed by the army of the North. Others are biased in favor of the United States, and still others in favor of the Confectionery. The Daughters want nothing but accuracy and they are going after every school board in Arkansas to see that it is ob- tained.

UNION LABOR FORCES
 WILL BACK BILL
Indications Are That 1916 Leg islature Will be Called Upon
 to Pass Bank Guarantee Act
 Similar One Introduced Before

Little Rock, June 7.-From present indications the legislature of 1916 will be requested to pass a Bank Guaranty Act somewhat similar to the one sought to be initiated two years ago. The union labor forces of Arkansas will back the new bill
 The labor delegation is now devot- ing its energies to the adoption of a constitutional amendment changing the initiative and referendum so that more than three can be submitted at one time, and also making changes in the laws governing the circulation of petitions The change will relieve the circular of petition of the burden of producing the signers if the sig natures are challenged. The petitions require that the circulator must make oath that the signatures are genuine, and that the signers are qualified cleo tors, and if proof is offered that they are not, then the circulator is subject to prosecution for perjury, which the labor contingent thinks is sufficient safeguard. If the amendment to the l. and R. is adopted by the voters, the labor leaders will urge Bank Guar anty Act in the legislature, and if defeated there, will come back two years later and ask for an act by the people. They will also insist that where there is question regarding the signatures, that the matter be sub mtted anyway, for a majority vote by the people will correct any fault in the petition.
