 Federal Officials Fear General Epidemic.

Chicago, Nov. 7.-The foot and mouth disease threatens to become q permanent epidemic throughout the United States. Today it was trac ed to the Western cattle country. Once thoroughly implanted among the cat tie on the ranges in those states, 1t will be next to impossible to eradi- cate it, federal experts declare.
 The disease was discovered in a heard of 15O cattle at Glendive, Mont. The Chicago office of the bureau of animal industry immediately tele- graphed the department of agricul- ture. asking that the state of Montana be placed under quarantine. Already ten states are under quarintine. Mon- tana making eleven. In three other states t:te state officials have declar- ed quarantines as preventime meas ure.

Fears of Cotton Brokers Re- moved by Expression of
 Attorney General.
NO OBSTACLES IN WAY
Declaration of MT. Gregory That s135,- 900. .OOO Pool Doesn't Fall Within PnryieW of Antitrust Law
 ReaSSureS Brokers.

Washington, Nov. Fear of cot ton brokers that the department of justice might construe the $135, ,000,- 900 cotton loan pool as a violation of the federal antitrust laws, was dis pelled today when Attorney-General Gregory in letter to President Will son upheld the plan.
 The attorney-generals opinion was sought by the federal reserve board, to whom cotton brokers had express ed the feeling that, even though the treasury department had given sane tion to the pool, the department of justice might along later and knock it out by calling it illegal.
 The federal reserve board gto Sec retary of the Treasury McAdoo to communicate with President Wilson. explaining that the cotton brokers were reluctant to go into the pool until given assurance of the attorney generals attitude.
 This morning President Wilson sent letter to MT. Gregory urging him to give an opinion as to the le- gality of the pool.
 Mr. Gregory referred in his reply to the so-called Sherman act, the so- called Clayton act and the trade com mission act as being in the minds Of the brokersl who wanted the govern ment's assurance. He went on:
 Countries which take annually about S,OOO,OOO bales of cotton, more than half the crop, are now engaged in war. Trade between the United States and those countries in some cases virtually has come to com plete stop, and in others has been seriously hindered. Foreign exchange has been badly demoralized. In con- seouence of the extraordinary condi- tion. it has been impossible to obtain the large amount of cash required to liuuidate the indebtedness incurred In the course of raising and marketing the cotton crop"
 To meet this situation, the attorney general explained the $135,O00,0O0 pool was organized. :.
 Nothing in the nature of hxed prices, divisions of territory or con trol of markets is involved" he said. "The amount of this fund is barely more than 1 per cent of the total out standing loans and discounts of bank ing institutions of the United States and is much less than the amount Of cash usually employed in marketing the cotton crop. Nor would even this small part of the banking capital of the United States become impounded as a result of the plan, but, upon be- ing lent, would return at once into general circulation.
 q am unable to see how such a nlan could be thought to fall within the purview of the antitrust laws"
 The attorney-general is now ex- nected to remove the last obstacle in the way of the speedy working out of the loan, which will be run under the supervision of the government.

Several Fierce Hand.t0-HGnd Con.
 fliets in Belgium.

Paris, Nov. 7.-The midnight com munication from Bordeaux says:
 "The German attacks along the whole front were repulsed by the al- lies without exception, the heaviest losses being inflicted on the invaders in new battle at Cambrai and Le- Quesnoy-en-S -Sanderre, where the Ger man offensive was particularly vio- lent.
 "1'he Frenc! and British troops which had succeeded in gaining the ap- breaches to Aix-Noulette from the southward today, were unable to car ry the fighting up to the town itself, and terrific short range skirmishes were fought in the streets of the town. the allies driving the invaders from house to house.
 North of Albert. around the village of Chivoial, several trenches held by the invaders during two days of er- rife fighting were occupied by the allies as a result of a series of furious assaults in which the bayonet was us- ed freely and with an enormous toll of deaths.
 "To the northeast of Vailly, along the Aisne, the trenches formerly oc- cupied by the French have all been retaken, the Germans being driven back with a loss of considerable amount of war material and hundreds of dead and wounded.
 "On the heights of the Mouse, the village of Sermi was captured by the French as the point of the bayonet.
 'On the line from Ypres to Arras, the German line has been reinforced by the arrival of three recently form ed corps.
 "These fresh troops have been massed around Arras, behind strong positions established at St. Laurent de-Blancy."

This Was Threat Made Yes terday Near Close of Can

CONTAMINATION FOR
 GIRLS OF COUNTY
Greater Number of People Inspected Exhibits Yesterday Than Gn Any Day, and All C0mplimented Miss
 FOrtner and the Exhibits.

Pine Bluff and Jefferson county women who were in attendance yes terday at the closing day of the exhi- bition of the girls canning clubs, made threates that if the men of the city and county do not hold a county fair here next year, the women will hold female fair, and make the men pay to witness it.
 The threat was made in fun, to a certain extent, but the women ap- peared to be half way in earnest passing their opinion on the very cred itable exhibition arranged within a period of two weeks or so, and with no displays except those sent in by the girl and boy members of the to- mato and canning clubs. Miss Fort ner was informed by several O. :s.l4 women that she had certainly dem- onstrated her ability to conduct a fair for the ladies, and that she must serve as general manager when the exhibition is pulled off next year.
 The final day of the exhibition Was one continual ovation for Miss Fort ner, head of the work in this county, and for the members of her clubs Forty-five members of the clubs came into the city for the day, which was designated as club day, and the young folks were given the time of their lives, being treated to the picture show by Secretary Bloom of the Chamber of Commerce, getting their pictures taken in a big group, hear ing talks on how to raise poultry. how to grow better fruit and vegeta- bles, and how to can their products; :; and making it virtually one picnic day.. They brought their lunch with them, and all ate together, at one spread. For the luncheon, the Coca Cola folks sent in two cases of their drinks, which came in most oppor- tunely.
