in Perryville.
Little Rock, Nov. 23.-Prose
cuting Attorney Rhoton was no
tified last night by Murphy &
Lewis, attorneys for Senator A.
T. Gross, that they would today
ask for a change of venue in the
two cases in which Senator Gross
is charged with perjury and so
liciting a bribe. These cases are
set for trial in the circuit court,
and until last evening no definite
announcement had been made as
to whether they would be tried.
Senator Gross declared yester
day that he did not know what
course he would pursue.
Mr. Rhoton was notified last'
night, however, that the court j
would be asked to grant a change1
of venue, and that the affidavits
which are required to support
the application were ready to be j
filed this morning. Mr. Rhoton,;
having had no notice that the;
case would not be tried, had pro
ceeded with his arrangements, I
and a number of witnesses were
to have left St. Louis last night.
He notified them, however, be-j
fore they left St. Louis that ;
their presence would not be j
necessary today.
The cases of Senator Gross will j
be sent to Perry county,,and will i
probably be placed on the docket
. .-for the February term.

MURDER MYSTERY.
Remains of England Citizen Found Badly
Muti ated on Railroad Track.
Malvern. Nov. 23.—The re
mains of R. 0. Walker of Eng
land, Ark., were found on the
Iron Mountain railroad track six
miles north of Malvern Wednes
day morning. The body had
been dragged fully 500 feet by
the tram, this causing a bad con
dition of mutilation. The coro
ner’s jury rendered a verdict to
the effect that he was supposed
to have been killed by a train,
but the coroner expresses his
personal opinion that the man
was murdered and the body
afterwards placed upon the
track. Bank of England de
posit certificates were found upon
his person aggregating $2,575,
Walker’s brother is cashier of
the Bank of England.
Haynes After the Pay.
Little Rock, Nov. 23.—Maj.
Gen. W. H. Haynes, command
ing the Arkansas State Guard,
has gone to Washington, D. C.,
by order of Gov. Davis, for the
purpose of conferring with the
war department with reference
to the approval of the pay-rolls
for the payment of the militia
men recently engaged in the
quarantine service in the State.
There is about $12,500 due them,
and the money is now in the
bank here, but cannot be dis
bursed until after the pay-rolls
have been approved.
Gov. Davis has assured Maj.
Haynes that upon his return he
will see that not only the pay of
the men is disbursed, as the war
department may order, but that
the outstanding accounts, which
amount to about the same figure,
are paid.
Rogers Gaining Votes.
Black Rock, Nov. 23.-Atty.
Gen. Bob Rogers, eanditate for
governor, spoke here yesterday
afternoon to a large and enthus
iastic audience. He was intro
duced by Harry Ponder as being
one of the truest and most hon
orable men that he had the
pleasure of serving with in the
legislature. Mr. Rogers’ speech
was closely followed by his hear
ers and applauded not only by
his many friends, but also by,the
Jeff' Davis men in the audience.
His vindication against the at
tacks of Jeff Davis, who spoke
,here a few weeks ago, made him
many votes. The copies of the
Cook-Rogers note that Mr. Davis
has flooded the country with are
undoubtedly making many votes
for Rogers.

Jonesboro, Nov. 23.—Last
1 night the Jonesboro Commercial
Club held an enthusiastic meet
ing, the chief object of which
was to take steps to secure the
Presbyterian Synodical College
that is soon to be erected by the
Presbyterian church of the state.
Rev. Mr. Grigsby, pastor of
the church at this place, and a
member of the committee to lo
cate the college, was present and
i spoke of the school and of the
offers that had been received
from other towns*,in the state.
He said that if the proper in
ducement could be offered oy
Jonesboro he was sure the school
could be secured.
; Speeches were made^ by sev
eral present, and in a few min
utes there was $20,000 in sight
for the location of the school. A
committee was appointed to sol
icit subscriptions for donations,
and it is thought that as much
as $50,000 can be raised. In
case that is done the school will
no doubt come this way.
