ARKANSAS REGIMENTS
 TO DENYING, N. M.
RumOrs Say Troops Will Prob ably Move Next Week-Be- lieved Two Regiments Will go to Border for Patrol Duty.

Little Rock, July 2S.-Rumors per sist that the two Arkansas Regi- ments encamped at Fort Logan H.. Roots are to be taken to Deming, N. M, or some other point on the border, probably next week. Some reports go so far as to say that orders have been received and that they have been seen by others than the superior officers.
 It is known positively, however, that no such definite orders have been reported to Gov. Hays, to whom they would be reported as soon as re- ceived. It is generally believed that the Arkansas troops are to be taken to the border for a few months patrol duty, and that the orders may come soon, but it is just as certain that no such orders have yet been received. The fact that staff officers have been directed to secure mounts has added to the probability of an early move ment to the front.

FIGHTING IS INTENSE
 ON WEST FRONT
British and Germans Again Taken Up Hammering Lines in Effort to Gain-Russians Are Advancing.

London, July 27,-Hard fighting has commenced again between the British and Germans in the Somme region of France, near Pozieres, around Longueval and in the Delville wood. The British in the fighting Wednesday night captured an im4 portant German trench north of the line running from Pozieres to Bazan- tin le Petit, but were shelled out of it Thursday morning by an enflading fire from the German artillery. An other attack, however, gave the British foothold in the southern end of the trench.
 South of the Somme the French made further progress east of Es- trees. In Champagne the Germans raided French first trenches near Prosnes but later were driven out in Ia counter attack. Bombardments are in progress on various sectors around Verdun
 Further advances for the Russian troops in the Slonavka river region on the eastern front are chronicled by Petrograd Vienna admits the fall ing back of the Austrians south of Lesznrow, near Brody, in the face of superior forces of the Russians and that northeast of Brody the Russians gained insignificant advantages in which the attackers suffered extra ordinary losses.

VETERANS ECEIVE
 40 ROCKING CHAIRS
Little Rock Council of COnfed- eracy, Composed of Sons and Daughters Organization, Pre- sent Home With Comforts.

Little Rock, July 2S.-The Little Rock Council of the Confectionery, composed of the Sons and Daughters organizations of this city, on Friday morning presented the veterans at the Confederate Home with forty rocking chairs and two invalid wheel chairs. Funds were raised sufficient to give the veterans a treat in addi- tion.
 Mrs. NJ. M. Hankins, daughter of Gen. Churchill, on a recent visit to the home noticed that none of the veterans enjoyed the pleasures of rocking chairs and but few of the aged women were supplied with them. She then took the matter up with the Confederate Council, the chair shower being the result. The response was greater than expected, and the sur plus was used to buy the wheel chairs when it became known that there were four suffering with paralysis at the Home, and only one chair to serve them. The Council expects to later purchase chair for the fourth in- valid.

Some realizing occurred around this level on the forecast of unsettled weather in east Texas, where rain is needed. There were rumors that SCouthern crop report from an authority had reduced its condition figure to 74.S, or 6.3 points under the last government report. If true, this would tend to confirm the extreme damage reports that have been circu- lating. Demand broadened out con- siderably in the afternoon, including outside buying through commission houses, and both Wall street and up- town support. Memphis was also a buyer of winter months here, which was considered important, in view of the character of crop news from that quarter. Liverpool closed 1-2 to I3 l-2 points lower, without having any | important effect here.
 The market closed steady.
