Rogers Returns With Proof.
Attorney General Robert L.
Rogers, accompanied by Attor
neys Guy Fulk and James Ste
venson, returned yesterday from
Chicago, where they have been
for a week seeking evidence ii^
the suits pending against the
packing houses and agricultural
implement companies for viola
j tions of the Arkansas anti-trust
! law. Mr. Rogers stated that he
and his assistants had been able,
during their short stay in Chica
! go, to procure a vast amount of
material, which will be of value
in the suits which are already in
court, and for others wlvch are
now in contemplation. The at
torney general stated that the
trip and the resulting evidence
will be invaluable to the cause
which he represents.
Will Build Fertilizer Plant.
Little Rock, Sept. 13.—The
Arkansas Fertilizer Company,
which last year bought a tract of
land in the eastern part of the
city, has been granted a permit
to erect a $5,000 plant on the
site, and work will begin soon.
Switches will be built from the
Iron Mountain tracks out to the
plant.
The compand proposes to man
ufacture a fertilizer from mineral
phosphate taken from the mines
at Batesville. The plant at Bates
ville was destroyed by fire some
two years ago, and owing to the
improved railroad facilities at
this point it was decided to locate
the fertilizer plant here.
Small Pox at Pine Bluff.
Pine Bluff, Sept. 13.—A case
:of smallpox was discovered in
! the eastern part of the city yes
j terday. The victim is A. Kil
; lough, a railroad man who boards
at the residence of Mrs. Kerwin,
mother of County Judge E. J.
Kerwin. The patient will be
removed to the pest house at
once and all his clothes and bed
ding will be burned in hopes of
preventing the spread of the
disease. This is the first case
i
of smallpox in the city since last
May, when the disease was epi
demic here.
Discontinue Two Trains.
By a decision of General Pass
enger Agent Townsend of the
Missouri Pacific trains Nos. 3 and
8 on the main line have been dis
continued, effective Thursday.
This action was taken on account
of the yellow fever situation,
traffic having fallen off consid
erably. Local sleepers between
St. Louis and Texarkana will
i also -be discontinued, but the
California sleeper together with
the El Paso chair car will be
transferred to No. 7, and by this
means all traffic will be cared for.
