plvtbeville, Ark, June3.-James
 peese who it is alleged is indebt-
 s .o the defunct bank at Blytheville
 the amount of $179, ,000, has been re-
 s.rasted on charge of grand larceny
 snd is now out under $10,000 bail. psese was first arresteed on warrant .,,orn out before magistrates court sud made bail to the amount of $2,50o. When he failed to appear at a hear ~ forfeiture was declared. This was sst aside, however, when Reese ap- ,sered later and he was again arrest ed.
 Reese was friend of B. H. Wilhite, cashier of the bank. When repre- .sntatiyes of the state bank commis- sinner closed the doors of the insti- tution on March 10 personal obliga- lions of Reese totaling more than s15O,0OO were found.
 Reese, it is understood, had no ac- eount with the bank and the transac- lions, it is said, were between himself and Wilhite. Checks carried as cash items were the only record the bank had of Reeses debt.
 Wilhite is said to have advanced Reese the money to promote the manufacture of a machine to thread pipes. Wilhite and w. o. Anthony, assistant cashier, are under bond of $4O,O0O on indictments charging em- bezzlement, accepting deposits know ing the bank to be insolvent and mak- ing false entries. Wilhite and An thony had invested heavily in farm lands, oil we'll properties, and had f'nanced number of schemes. They assigned large amount of real and personal property after the institution had been ruined.
 An audit of the affairs of the bank concluded several days ago indicated that there was a deficit of $896,000 on the day Deputy Bank Commissioner B. A. Lynch took charge.

Announcement of the presidents position, which had been the cause of much disquietude during the framing of adjournment plans, was made from
 the Senate. floor by enator Under
 wood of Alabama, the administration
 leader. He said he had been author
 ized by ecretary Tumulty to say that
 Mr. Wilson would not call Congress
 back into session unless a grave
 emergency arises.
 The announcement was contrary to
 the expectations of many of the Re
 publican senator's and some of the
 leaders on that side still believed to-
 night Senator Underwoods statement
 left enough leeway for a special ses- sion call should the president decide it to be advisable after the conven- tions. There was no debate on the floor, however, regarding the presi- |dents attitude.
 Pleading with their party leaders for recess instead of an adjourn ment, the 20 'insurgent Republicans and Democrats declared Congress had no moral right to desert it's post for the lure of politics. The curbing of profiteers, the enactment of relief measures for postal employees ,legis- lation for merchant marine, repeal of wartime legislation, levy of new tax schedules and appropriation of funds to carry on river and harbor improve ments were among the unfinished | tasks for which special pleas were made.
 The leaders said at least some o1 1 the measures made the basis of com lplaints today would oe passed before Saturday and announced that sessi,ns If the enate would be he'd tonight and tomorrow night. The only appro- priation bill likely to fail, ,hey said was .Ee river and harbo1 budget, on

MAY COTTON REPORT LOW
REPORT OF ARKANSAS COOP ERATIyE SERVICE SAID TO BE LOWEST IN HISTORY OF THE SERVICE.

''The lowest map crop report, both for Government and State, since crop report began" This is the report of the Arkansas Cooperative Crop Re- porting Service, given to the press to- day. According to the reports receiv- ed by Messers. Bouton and Ferguson, a distinct feeling of gloom is much ii evidence. There is only one section of the State that approaches the aver age 10-year condition figure of 79 for he State. This is the Central-western district, where prospects are fairly good, which gives condition figure of 77. < Tn four counties of this dis trict, Sebastian, Franklin, Crawford and Logan, the reports may be classed as good. Nextto these Lincoln county shows the best average according to the reports received. The counties which may be classed as fair are Jeff erson, Bradley, the southern part of Lonoke, Garland, Perry, Marion and Baxter in the northeastern and north ern part class as flair" to "good." In all the remaining fifty-three cotton producing counties of the State the outlook must be characterized as poor. The response to the Government in- quiry was whole hearted. Replies were many and clear. There can be no question but what the. crop report CTS entered whole heartedly into the effort to portray conditions exactly as they are. The worst conditions in the State seem to be in the southwest part where floods have washed out whole fields and flooded thousands of
 acres Nearly as bad are the condit- ions in St. Francis, Lee, Phillips, De-
 sha, Chicot and Drew counties where
 flood waters and incessant rains have
 affected additional thousands of ac-
 res. Ninety per cent of the comments
 refer to rain, floods or wetness. Only
 three per cent, however, refer to con-
 ditions as the worst in years" or
 worst in history"
 Figures collected by Commissioner
 Ferguson show the fertilizer sold in
 the State this year is about the same
 as 1916, and about 10000 tons in ex-
 cess of last year. The reports made to
 the Cooperative Service indicate an
 average of 175 pounds per acre is us-
 ed in localities where it is employed.
 In the alluvial counties it is not used.
 The average per acre cost of fertilizer
 used on cotton this year is $364,- thus indicating that $40 per ton is the pre- vailing price for the average fertilizer
 used within the State.

TO MAKE SANITARY SUR-
 VEY OF STATE SCHOOLS

Little Rock, June 3.-The Arkansas Federation of Women's Clubs and the Arkansas Public Health Association have just perfected arrangements for sanitary survey of the schools of the state. The survey is authorized by the State Departments of Health and Education and will be under the chair manship of Mrs. c. W. Garrison of the Federated Clubs. The Public Health Association is getting out very com plete questionnaire which will be sent to the district club chairman of health in few days, and in order to expedite matters, they are requested to make report directly to the Arkansas Public Health Association. It is planned to finish the survey by the first of New ember.
 This work has been taken up be- cause workers in the health and edu- cational fields have realized for a long time that unsanitary school con ditions are affecting the health of the children. Field workers report that in many places toilet facilities are over crowded and poorly lighted and ven tilated. In some the children are fac ing the ligh and in others the water supply is reported not adequate. Ere ouent reports of this character have led to this study of conditions on an extended scale.

THE THEATRE
IIinIIIIIIIuIIIIIIIIumIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiIIIIIII
Strand Theatre


Travellers returning from the far
east tell wonderful stories concern
ing the oriental mystics who do feats
that look almost like witchcraft, but
no story of the Hindu's can compare
with the talk that is created by Malta
AXmi, the master seer and crystal
gazer who with his company Of My
sites will appear at the Strand one
week commencing Sunday, September
10th. In Indiana the name of Malta
Axmi is a HOUSEHOLD word. In that
country he has many times given his
performances before all the digni-
taries of the British Government and
has many times appeared in the
temples and has astounded all the
far famed Fakirs of British India.
Malta Ami and mis- clever company
has appeared in every large city on
earth including Is weeks in London,
20 weeks at different times in Great
er New York, and always in the
higher class of theatres. The feat
ures presented are sensational and
have always pleased the most critical
and eXacting audience.
No one of intelligence calls cleo
tricity fake or humbug. Its dem
onstration precludes all question of
human invention of the remarkable
force. Its source remains as mys-
tifying as ever, and probably beyond
human conception and comprehen-
sion.
The scientific world accepts cry
stal gazing as positive fact This
Telepathc possibility is becoming a
study in the development of the sub
conscious mind that is well worth
looking into. This is undeniably the
most complete and perfect exhibition
of its kind in the world and has been
the7-talk of every city. Write your
questions at home, seal them in an
envelope and Malta Axmi gives you
a correct answer whether it concerns
/ business, investments, lawsuits, love
domestic or social affairs, rivals, sep.
aration, divorces, etc.
