ximately 100 900 acres of land in Mil
Ter County.
The basis for the application for
the writ of injunction is said to be
that the levees will cause the level of
water in Red River to rise, which
will interfere with, harm and damage
the bridge of the company at Garland
City. Members of the board of CON-
m fasteners do not believe the courts
will issue any injunction founded on
such claim, inasmuch as the war de-
partment has always indicated its
willingness to have bridges change
or altered to conform to changes in
conditions. 1t is thought that II the
facts alleged by the railroad are true,
which is not agreed upon, the war
department can be put in suspension

REPORT VERIFIED
BY SUPT. PECK
Says Cotton Belt Will Begin Use Of
Rock Island Tracks About Feb. /.

According to an announcement
made by Supt. w. S. Peck Of the
Cotton Belt Railroad, who was in
Little Rock Tuesday, a change in the
train service Of that road will be
effected February 1. 1912. 1t is the
purpose of the Cotton Belt officials
to run their train to Memphis over
the Rock Island tracks from Brinkley,
Ark, as announced In the Graphic
several months ago.
For several years the Cotton Belt
has been using the Iron Mountain
tracks for their trains eastbound,
striking the Iron Mountain at Fair
Oaks, Ark. Through the change a
considerable distance will be cut off
on the Cotton Belt service into Men,
phis, and a vast reduction Of mile
age eliminated in the use of the Rock
Island tracks from Brnkley into
Memphis.
The matter as to this change of
routing the eastbound Cotton Belt
trains has been pending before the Of
ficials of both the Rock Island and
Cotton Belt roads for some time. The
official announcement of this change
clears the situation that has been
brought up several times during the
past II months as to the proposed
change.
In instituting the new schedule the
Cotton Belt will effect a better train
service between its southwestern
points and Memphis.

Texarkana. Dec. 20.-Does Prohibi-

Evidently not, at least in Texark-
ana, judging by the fact that the
Wells-Fargo & Co. Express has found
it necessary to occupy special quar-
tiers in which to handle the worn OF
delivering the cons,gnments of liquor
now being received for local people.
For a week or more the express
people have been literally overrun
handling shipments of LIQUOR, and 1t
was almost impossible to make deliv-
cry of other goods without great loss
of time, not to mention the inconven-
fence to the other persons having
business with the company
With the arrival of almost every
train here, from both east and west,
there has come into the city large
quantities of liquors, principally
swhiskey. 1t has ben common
thing to see two and even three wa
gons-and the express company wa
CONS are unusually large in capacity
leave the depot, loaded to the top
with whisky and other such stuff.
So great has been the quantity hail
died, that it was found impossible to
make delivery from the regular, per-
manent city Office. 1t is a rule with
the company that the eonsignea him
self must call and sign for all liquor
shipments, and this rule cau-ed the
delivery section of the office to be
crowded from early morning to late
ev ming every day, with people sigh
ing up for whiskey and other booze.
Consignees expecting other classes OF
shipments were quite crowded out.
In order, therefor, that somebody
bes des whiskey folks might have a
chance to do some express business
siNe company arranged that beginning
today, all shipments of whiskey and
other liquors will b. delivered from
the old office of the Wells Fargo, in
the Foreman building, in State Limo
avenue Two clerks are detailed
there to attend to the bushes, and
more will be furnished # their SER
vices are needed,
at IL absolutely impossible to even
roughly estimate the aggregate
amount of Nqup prs that have been
shipped into Texarkana during the
past week, and 1t is difficult in even
greater degree to make guess at the
aggregate quantity which will be re-
ceived during the coming week. Con-
sidering that the company thinks two
clerks MIGHT be able to make deliv-
cry over the counters, it may be I'M
agined there will be some big amount
of booze" handled.
TT is admitted by railroad officials
as we'll as by express company peo-
,ple that the great amount of Whiskey
and other liquors now being handled
is responsible for much of the de-
lay being suffered by passenger
trains, thus indicating that the mail
order whiskey houses are reaping at
least their usual holiday harvesi.
Hence the question which many peo-
pie are asking, and many more are
mentally considering. s
