CONDITION OF BANK
BANDITS CRITICAL
Charles Price Remains in Critical
Condition and Other Two Serious.
Planned Robbery at tSalli-
saw, Okla.

I Eureka Springs, Ark, Sept. ,2S.-
Three bank bandits, who fell at the
hands of citizens in street fight
yesterday morning following the rob
berry of the First National bank
were fighting off death in hospital
here today, while the bodies of their
two "pals," who met death in the
gun battle, lay in the nrorgue of an
undertaking establishment to pass
under the curious gaze of hundreds
of awed persons of this Ozark country
One of the three wounded, Charles
Price, is believed to be waging los
ing fight. His life hung by
thread since he fell in the street IN
der rain of bullets, and tonight he
still was in a critical condition.
Other Two Are Serious.
Jack Cowan and Mark Hendricks,
the two other wounded outlaws, are
more dangerously wounded than was
at first believed, according to reports
today from the hospital. Hendricks,
it was learned, suffered puncturea
lung from a shotgun charge and is
developing pneumonia. Complications
have arisen in Cowan's wounds in the
shoulder and neck. The condition OF
both is said to be critical.
The Ozark hills for miles around
were engulfed today in the excite
ment of the sensational occurrence, a
history-making event in this com
munity which probably will live for an
age, an act Of banditry which has not
been paralleled in the Ozarks since
the days of the James boys and thel,
bands of outlaws.
Hundreds View Bodies.
Hundreds of persons from all sur
rounding towns flocked into Eureka
Springs today to go over the 'fieltl
Of battle" and to view the bodies OF
the two dead. This resort city was
as much astir as it is at the park of
the summer tourist season.
Little was learned today from the
wounded bandits, all of whom are
conscious, although p. +. johnson,
! prosecuting attorney, and Ed Nc,
Shane, sheriff, spent several hours,
questioning them.
johnson said they told him the plot
to rob the. band was matched" il
Sallisaw, Okla, last Sunday and Mon
day and that they drove to Eureka
/ Springs Tuesday night.

OUTLOOK IN NEAR
EAST DARKENING
While Apparent Peace Still Exists
Between British and Turks, Overt
Act is Feared.

London, Sept. 28.-The British
&xbSnet held three consecutive meet
Snxs today and another meeting will
Ne held tomorrow morning. This fact
NAone is sufficient comment upon the
RTAvity of the situation in the near
east, revealed by yesterdays bad news
wAsch has been amply confirmed and
>Aeeentuated by today's dispatches.
The Greek revolution, which was a
Sniaitary and naval coup, seems to
4gAye been carried out with surpris-
4nR swiftness and completeness. In
4Srmation regarding Constantine is
NneAgre, but one repord had it that he
Was prisoner of the revolutionists.
The crown prince succeeds to the
%hfone while the victorious troops,
'NsSA their leaders at their heads,
marched triumphantly into Athens
%l&ch, pending the formation OF new
government, is in the hands OF a
aAflitary dictatorship in the shape OF
a triumvirate council Of generals.
One of the generals is said to be
che famous General Nider who for
"a long time was chief of staff and
war minister in the VeniZelos adj
shfnistration and commanded the
Greek expeditionary corps operating
NA Russia in 1918.
Apparently the revolution was
AaDodless, although an unconfirmed
RAPPORT mentions the killing of one
fMSnister. 1t is asserted here that one
~f the main objects of the revolution
80 TO maintain Greek rule in eastern
Thrace. ---
Latest advices are 10 the effect that
there has been no collision between
the Turks and British in the Chanak
zone and that seems to be the only
satisfying aspect of a very threaten
ang situation. Friendly messages have
been exchanged between General
Harrington, the British commander at
NSeiistantinople, and Kemal Pasha
\ discussing the respective viewpoints
4 In an amicable manner, but the Kema'
Rsts show not the slightest disposition
TO recede from their position and re.
fuse to withdraw their troops from
6he Chanak sector.
On the other hand, according tc
government dispatches and cores
pondents on the spot, an additiona
Turkish force entered the neutra

crease in the Turkish forces in boil

WORK OF COMMERCIAL CLUB
SHOWN IN ROAD DESIGNATION


The secretary of the Monett Com
mercial Club, John P. Davis, has a
letter from C. M. Shartel, who is a
member of the constitutional con-
vention in session at jefferson City,
having reference to the state highway
through this section of the state.
MI. Shartel advises that the road
! from Springfield to Neosho will be a
high type road. No primary road in
the original designation has any
other guarantee as to construction.
The fact that concrete road nearly
! two miles long near Mckinley is now
advertised, leads to the belief that
concrete construction will be kept up
the entire distance. However, if it is
not, then we will have brick or as
phalt combination, SO that the work
done by our citizens to secure this
road was not done in vain.
| Very few people know the amount
of work done to secure the data to
place before the state road commits
sioners. Every town in this territory
co-operated and an executive COM
n1ittee from each town was appionted
to look after the interest Of his town
and to secure full information in re-
gard to his locality. This was all
compiled in the form of a brief.
The executive committee selected
S. A. Chapell as chairman and John T.
Davis secretary, SO the headquarters
for Southwest Missouri We're in Mo-
nett and the work Of conducting the
| information was compiled here.
The Monet Commercial Club mem
bers were pioneers in this movement
and elected officers from their organ
ization as officials of Barry County
Road Club, which was merged into
the Southwest Missouri organization
f. p. Sizer was president of this
organization and did faithful work
Earl Galloway, president of the Mo
nett Commercial Club, was selected
with Mr.. Sullivan, Of Republic, tc
present a brief to the commission con-
tanning all information compiled, to-
gether with their argument covering
facts contained in the above file.
The Commercial Club can point
with pride to their accomplishment il
securing the road through Monett
the benefits of the road being far be.

FAKERS IN TOWN

Two Young men were in town Sat
urday soliciting subscriptions to a
for which they collected 80
cents for u years subscription. They
claimed that 81 cents of each subscrip-

young men were the disabled soldiers
themselves, the city officers decided
that they we're deceiving the public

AMENDMENT FOR ROAD
MAINTENANCE

The Automobile Club of Missouri
has determined on an intensive cam
paign 20 acquaint the voters Of the
state with the necessity of voting af-
hrmatively on Amendment No. 3
which will be on the ballot in the No
vember elections.
This amendment merely provides
that moneys obtained from automo-
bile license fees may be used for the
maintenance of roads as well as for
paying the interest and taking care
Of the sinking fund Of the recently
approved $6O,000,000 highway bond
issue. 1t provides for no additional
taxation and no raise in the motor
vehicle license fees and as a matter OF
fact does nothing more than give the
State Highway Commission an auth
ority legally that virtually every
voter in the state has assumed that it
had actually.
According to the Highway Com
mission the passage of Amendment
No. 8 will Immediately make available
for the maintenance of roads $1,000,-
900 annually from the present license
fees and a patrol system on the high
ways will be instituted just as soon
as the assembly validates the purpose
of the amendment by formal legis-
lation.
AS matter of fact should the
amendment be defeated the tax-pay-
ers of the state may find themselves
under the necessity of assuming adj
ditional direct taxation for the up
keep Of the roads built under the $780,
000O00 bond issue and such other
roads of the state that must be main
tanned.
AS far is known there is no oppo-
sition to Amendment No. 3 but there
is danger that it may be voted down
Inadvertently by those unfamiliar with
It's pIOVlolOllo clLA P0AROssCoe 80 49,
November ballot there are three con-
stitutional amendments, fifteen refer
endum and two initiative propositions
to be voted on. Many of them, Of
course, will draw, negative votes and
for fear that the dislike for few OF
the proposals may result in the killing

line when one proposition displeases
them-the Automobile Club of Mis-.
souri, has undertaken through its
various divisions out in the state to
wage an educational campaign in be
half of Amendment No. 3. Wind
shield stickers, literature and speak
ers will be used in explaining the
purpose of the amendment and arous-
ing the interest Of the voters Of the
state to the point where Amendment
No. 3 will reseive particular and af-
firmative attention in November.

Department Finds Trial Of
Plan Has Worked Out
Successfully.

Free medical examination for pos.

is being arranged today by the Post.
office Department. The step In re-
garded as one Of the most important
yet made in safeguarding the wei.
fare Of the men who handle the
mails.
Examinations will be made by
Public Health Service relief stations
in Washington and nine other large
cities, and by United States Marine
Hospitals in twenty-nine cities.
The free examinations were auth
orized by the Treasury Department
and will be made upon request of the
employees. Preliminary examinations
OF 9S5 employees In New York and
Chicago had demonstrated the value
of the plan. The reports show a
great improvement in average phv-
sical condition as result of the
work.
The service authorized in today's
orders will permit examination OF
l03 employees day. II is estimated
that about 1000 employees can be
examined annually. Opportunity for

ton dry division. that the distaste-
full ingredient Of the compound can
be removed by simple chemistry,
leaving comparatively pure alcohol.
This work, however, when at
tempted by amateurs, may be dis
astrously bungled, 1t was said. Al.
though no reports Of fatalities from
this cause are on recent records
in this city, death has resulted in
several instances in New York.
When the compounds dangerous
ingredient is neutralized by an ex:
perienced chemist, a cheap grade or
whiskey and other forbidden beVer'
ages can be manufactured safely.
The dry chiefs will consider this
question in connection with their
inquiry into legal alcohol percent
ages of beer and wines.
