Abe Steinell Plans Remodel and New Tenants in Little Rock
Abe Steinell, owner of the City Hardware and Arkansas Pump and Pipe site at Second and Main, may remodel or rebuild and relocate the Little Rock Trust Company, a major shareholder, after the current lease ends mid-summer. The Mardi Gras 1909 celebration drew a large orderly crowd with police pleased and no major disorder. Maskers from Argenta, linked to the Ku Klux Klan, joined the events but were managed by hotel security, and the Pere Merehefits Association praised the turnout given only a week to prepare.
