SMALL BOY FIRED INTO RAILROAD CAR
BULLET STRUCK w. STANLEY SCOTT AND MADE SERIOUS
 INJURY IN LEFT TEMPLE.
Youth Who Fired the Rifle Gave No Good Reason for Shooting, and Said He Had Shot at no Person.

w. Stanley Scott. brakeman on the Rock Island, riding as a passen- ger on the outgoing train of Sunday morning. received a glancing bullet wound across his left temple when Zan Ross, a youth, fired his rifle into the train window.
 The shooting took place about nine miles from the city. Scott was sit ting on the aisle side of the train seat, and was leaning forward slight ly talking to the regular train brake man, when the bullet struck the win dow, made a very small hole, hit the window curtain fastener and glanced across the temple of Scott. The bull let had passed just before the face of his companion.
 Cyril Anderson, who was sitting in the seat directly behind, saw Scott raise his hand and give a cry of pain and he and others gave the wounded man attention. The train brakeman pulled the bell cord for the train to stop, but half mile had been travel ed before full stop was made, and when the train was reversed and re. turned to the scene, there was no trace of the party who had done the shooting.
 A special train from Little Roc, Benton, Malvern and Hot Springs brought posses of officers to the scene, who secured the country fer the man who did the shooting, only to find late in the day that blood hounds had traced the matter down. and that Zan Ross, an 11-year-old country boy, confessed to the shoot ing He said he had fired a shot, but that he did not know he had shot into the train, and that he had not in- tended to iniure anyone.
 This did not coincide with what oth- CTS had to say of the shooting. how ever for there were some who were firm in the belief that just after the shooting they saw a tall. angular young countryman, dressed in jump CTS, lower his rife and take off into the woods They believed he was about grown, and that he was a blonde. This description did not tally with the story the boy told, but both might have been correct. since the boy did not know he had shot into the train, and might not have fired the bullet that hit Scott, though he conefssed that he fired is rifle in | the woods about that time. Scott was taken to a Little Rock l hospital, where he was given treat. ment. His wound, at first believed to be a fatal one, was later pronounced quite serious, but not necessarily ia tai.

SALOON LICENSES
 ARE UP TOMORROW
RIVAL FORCES MUST SHOW THEIR HANDS BEFORE THE
 COUNTY JUDGE THEN.
There Is Quiet in the Camps of Both Factions Before the Legal Battle Begins in the Courts.

The matter of whether saloons snail receive license to sell liquors in Hot Springs during the ytar of 1914 will be officially before the county court tomorrow morning, when Judge Mooney calls the court to order.
 That there will be the same legal conflict over the issue here that there has already been in Fort Smith, Ar genta, Pine Bluff and other cities is certain Judge o. H. Sumpter and J. c. Mcconnell will represent the prohibition side in the fight, and At torneys Davies and Davies, of the firm of Davies and Ledgerwood, will represent the petitioners.
 No announcement was made ya5- terday as to the form of procedure the fight would take. In fact, there will most likely be a multiplicity Of objections raised to the petitions, and probably just as many objections raised to the objections that will therein be made before the court.
 Neither Judge Sumpter or Attorney Davies had any announcement to make last night They were evident ly prepared and awaiting the oppor- tunity to take their contentious into court.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Jan. 12-The cotton market opened steady at decline of 3 to points in response to lower Liverpool market than due It was much of a waiting market with both sides desirous of more information concerning ginning in the preset pc riod. which eds Thursday
 Lack of aggressive trading on the bull side served to encourage mod crate amount of short selling, but the pressure was not severe or enough to give the market a weak tone. Half an hour after the opening the most active months were 10 to 12 points under Saturdays last quotations.
 The sale of 12,000 bales on the spot in the English market, coupled with private cable messages of a bullish nature, caused some buying and gave the market steady undertone. Pri- yate advices from spot centers in the South were also encouraging, some of them stating that holders would not trade except at prices above board quotations.
 Buying at no time assumed large proportions and selling was in suff- cient volume to a little more than meet the demand. In the trading up to noon prices were 12 to 15 points under thei nal figures of Saturday.
