HELD NOT GUILTY Of
 SELLING LIQUOR
Federal Commissioner Ac- quits on Evidence on
 Which Jury Convicts

Jake Reisenberg was acquitted yes terday by United States Commission CT A. l.. Burnett of charge of sell ing intoxicating liquor, growing out of the sale of cider. Reisenberg was tried in the circuit court recently for tho same offense, and was convicted. As a result of the hearing yesterday, H. K. Toney, attorney for Reisen- berg, was petition Governor Brough to grant Reisenberg pardon.
 All the witnesses who testified at the hearing in the federal court had also appeared gaainst Reisenberg in the circuit court. Mike McGlen said yesterday that all cider he hV obtain ed in Pine Bluff made him drunk" that Reisenberg's was no different from that he had procured else where. Three quarts was the quantity he usually found necessary to pro duce intoxication, he testified. Will Simmons said he had been unable to "get drunk" on Reisenberg's cider, while Laura Jones, Mary Brown and Lillje Taylor, negro women said the cider they procured from Reisenberg was no different from that they ob- tained at other places in Pine Bluff. Harmless If Kept Cold Attorney H. Kemp Toney presented the following letter from Dr. w. G. Pittman, who had made an examina- tion of the cider before it was placed on sale by Reisenberg.
 "Pine Bluff, Ark, May 9, 1917. "Jake Reisenberg.
 "Upon your request, l have tested three specimens of cider purporting to be made by Nat. Fruit Product Company, Memphis, Tenn, which you brought tc me In the one called | "Mexican Hot" I find absolutely nc trace of alcohol In the ones called Apple and "Apricot", I find the merest trace. While I did~not make an absolute quantitative test, l know from the appearance of the speciman i of these that there could not be any thing like 1 per cent. It would be impossible for a person to drink enough of this cider to become is the least intoxicated.
 "All cider of any kind will contain traces of alcohol if kept in a warm place, but this cider, if kept ice colo would never contain any appreciable quantity of alcohol. I would consider this cider harmless beverage.
 Respectfully,
 "W. G. PITTMAN, M. D.
 MT. Toney said that several of the | jurors who convicted Reisenberg have volunteered to assist in getting g pardon for him.
 Reisenberg has wife and sever children dependent upon him, He has | contributed largely to the Red Cross and other war work funds.
 MT. Toney says that several strong prchibitionists now believe Reisen berg innocent and will assist in get ting him pardon.

M'AD00 ESTIMATES TAXES WILL BRING
 $4,O85,699,0OO
Treasury Secretary's Re- port Shows Two Thirds of of War Expense Met
 by Bonds.

Washington, May 15.-Revised estimates of revenue receipts in the current fiscal year ending next June 30 place at $4,O95, ,699,O0O the sum of which the American people will contribute directly to the government, mainly in taxes for prosecution of the war. These estibates, reported today to the senate by Secretary Me- Adoo in compliance with request for specific information throwing light on future revenue needs show that about one-third of the expenses of the was this year has been emt by taxa tion and two-thirds by Liberty bonds. The report disclosed that about $2,775, 1885, ,O0O will be collected on the base of income and excess profit tax returns on file May 4, about $34S,O00,- r00O more than the yield estimated when the war revenue act was en- acted last October, but less than the l $3 3,0O0,O0O recently estimated. The total now expected from internal ,, revenue which includes receipts from income and excess profits returns, 1 $3, ,643 ,8O0,00O; from customs $780, 900; from miscellaneous sources in cluding $40,000,O00 earnings of in creased first class postage, $270,000,- 900 and from sale of public lands ST. 8OO,O00. Estimates of internal reve nuue receipts last fall were about $3 400, 100000.
 The report will be examined care fully by members of congress in con necton with the pending question of whether new revenue legislation shal, be taken up at this session, as urged bv Secretary McAdo.. The fact that it's figures are fairly definite is ex- pected to have some influence with by Secretary McAdoo. The fact that results of existing revenue legisla- tion should be determined before new bills were framed. The report today did not segregate receipts from in comes and excess profits taxes, how ever. Early in the year Secretary Me Adoo had estimated income taxes at $1 ,201 100000 and excess profits tax at $1,233, 100000.
 Actual collections up to April 1 and estimates of receipts to June 30 no wshow that $S68,714,000 may be expected from internal revenue sour ces ether than excess profits and in- l comes.

RED CROSS AIDS 1000 FAMILIES
 IN ONE MONTH
Home Service Section Hunts Up Dependents of Sol
 diers to Help Them.
(By Orin k. COife)

St. Louis, May 15.-If the Civilian. Relief Department of the American Red Cross constituted the whole of that wonderful organization the Red Cross still would be one of the big gest factors in winning the war for America and her allies.
 Those in the Southwest who know the immense good which this depart ment of the Red Cross does will dig deep into their pockets when the Second War Fund campaign of the Red Cross begins May 20.
 suddenly and compelled to leave your family in such condition that short ly afterward they were in want, and if friend cared for your family and comforted them in your absence, that friend would have a place in your heart forever after. That exactly typifies the service which the Civilian Relief department of the Red Cross gives the dependent families of mA- erican soldiers and sailors who have gone to Farnce or who are going to France to do the grim work of war.
 Particularly effective service has been rendered by this department in the Southwestern division of the Red Cross. There are 2,670 home service sections in the thirteen divisions of the Red Cross Six hundreds of them, or more than one-fifth, are in the Southwestern division, comprising Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kan sas, and Texas: In other words every chapter with the exception of 80 in
 
 tion.
 Soldiers Appreviative
 A sentence or two in other letter tells of the deep appreciation of the men in khaki for what is being done for their families by the Red Cross. Here is an extract that tells the story: ls; d
 "I have heard how wonderfully the Red Cross has taken care of my family and that alone is enough to spur one to use the best that is in one."
 The Red Cross aided the family of Texan who was captured by the Germans at the battle of Cambrai They were in legal and financial diff, ficulties. A home service section wom- an extracted them and also made it possible for the oldest daughter to continue the schooling she was hay ing when the head of the family went away. Here is an extract from let ter from that soldier, written to his wife after he heard what the Red Cross did:
 "Be sure to buy Red Cross mem bership for me, one for yourself and one flo reach of the children. Wear them all the time."
 Director Fairbanks constantly is re- ceiving, letters of appreciation from soldiers and the families of soldiers in the Southwest which are inspired by the splendid service which the Home Service Section has rendered The families of 5000 soldiers were given aid in March and more than 1000 were helped in April. "I wish l could tell every man and every woman in the Southwestern div ision how the Red Cross helped my ] family when I was fighting in the trenches in France" one American private wrote "I surely could con vince the most skeptical that sup port of the Red Cross in all it's acti vities not only is the privilege but the duty of every persons who calls himself an American citizen"
