From the
Capital City
Little Rock, Nov. 3.—Letters
were today mailed to each county
judge in Arkansas, asking him to
recommend the appointment of
some young man to act as agent of
the Arkansas Humane Society
there. Several of the counties al
ready have such officers, and each
county has a number of applicants
for the remunerative position, but
the stase officers have decided to
call upon the county judges in or
der to pick the best men.
This afternoon the books of the
Capital City Savings Bank re
ceivership for the receiving of in
terventions of creditors will close
in the chancery court. Fully 500
interventions have already been
filed, ranging from $1 to $10,000;
and a few more are expected be
fore the close of the books. This
bank, the last negro banking in
stitution in the state to close its
doors, seems to have depositors in
every little town in the state, who
passed up the banks in their sec
tion in order to hoard their earn
ings with bankers of their own
color. The liabilities will ruu into
the hundreds of thousands, while
the assets on property amount to
about $100,000. The receiver is of
the opinion that only about 50 per
cent of the assets are collectable,
and the balance must be secured
from the officials. C. B. King, the
former cashier of the institution,
is under indictment in two courts
for receiving money on deposit aft
er he knew the bank was inrol
eent, and the grand jury is not yet
through with the investigation of
the mismanagement of the bank.

Again yesterday Pellis C. Chit
wood, a young man of Hot Springs,
was found guilty by a jury in the
Federal court, though his punish
ment has not yet been announced.
Chitwood was a former employe
in the Hot Springs office, and
postal inspectors allege they caught
him taking articles of value from
the mails. They allege he con
fessed to the crimes and signed the
confession. Chitwood was tried
here on the charge of rifling the
mails and convicted on two of the
counts in the indictment. An ap
peal was taken and the case re
versed by the United States Circuit
Conrt of Appeals. On the second
trial Chitwood was acquitted. He
was then indicted for perjury, and
was convicted on this charge yes
terday, the jury deliberating less
than an hour. The case will be
appealed by Col. George W. Mur
phy, who defended Chitwood in all
of his cases.
