Pledging their hearty support and cooperation with Mayor McClendon and stating that it was their desire to work for the best interest of Hot Springs, the new city administration started on the ensuing two yeaars of its official life under the most au- spicious circumstances last night.
 The assurances of support came from every member of council and were publicly given immediately after the new council had been sworn in. Members gathered around Mayor McClendon when Police Judge Led gerwood administered the oath of of flee to him and their expression of loyalty came in response 10 an ad- dress that was partly read by City Attorney Leo F. McI.aughian on be- half of the mayor and concluded in a few well chosen expressions from the city's chief executive.
 Mayor McClendon let no one mis- understand his position. He stated he intended to work for the best in- terests of the city and asked that council cooperate with him. The mayor, addressing the new council, said:
 Gentlemen In assuring our re- spectiye duties as mayor and alder men of this city we do SO with a full knowledge of the responsibilities rest ing upon us, and it is up to us, not individually alone but individually and collectively to make our coming two years administration a success. Shall be do it? In answering for my self l assure you that it will be my aim and pleasure to work in harmony with you, and lend you every assist ance in my power to make the next two years in the affairs of Hot Springs go down in history as the fairest in her existence so that all may say:
 Behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity.
 Gentlemen, we are confronted by a condition such as never confronted any administration in the history of this city. For the next year at least, and possibly longer, our revenues win be limited to an amount not exceed

MAN NARROWED
 ON AN ICE FLOE
BELIEVED TO BE A MEMBER OF THE TEFANSSON ARCTIC
 EXPEDITION.

Nome, Alaska, April 12.-Natiycf ported in mail advices received from Icy Cape, on the Arctic coast near latitude 70, to have seen a white man marooned on an ice floe drifting in a southwesterly direction toward Wran- gell Island. Whether the man was a member of Vilhialmur Stefansson's Canadian Arctic expedition or was a survivor of the wrecked whaling schooner New Jersey the natives were unable to determine.
 When the natives first saw the man he was on a large pack of ice separated from them and the shore ice by a wide stretch of water Al first they thought he was a hunter from their tribe. but upon reaching shore learned that the man was not a native.
 The hunters immediately hurried out onto the ice to try to rescue the marooned man, but before they had reached the lead separating the foe from the shore ice a strong off-shore wind had sprung up, carrying the ice far to sea.
 The general belief here and among the natives at Icy Cape is that the man was member of the Stefansscn party of three who started north over the ice from Martin Point, west of the Mackenzie river, April T, 1914. With Stefansson at that time were Ole Anderson and Storker Storker- son.
 Nothing has been heard of Ste. fanssun and his two companions sinca they left to explore the unknown Are tic regions north of Alaska.

London, April 12.-With the capture by the Russians of almost all the main chain of mountains, the battle .of the Carpathans, which has lasted upwards of eighty days is apparent- y reaching a termination over one extensive front and the Russians are said to be moving at various points by railways and roads and along the rivers and streams down the south. ern slopes toward the plains of Hun. gary.
 This movement, if it continues sue. cessfully will, in the view of the Rus sian military authorities, compel the retirement with little or no fighting, of the Austrlans and Germans who are still north of the Carpathlans to the east of Uzsook pass and in east, ern Ga!icia and Bukowina The battle which has been thus successfully conducted by the Rus sians, was, from all accounts, one of the fiercest of the ,'ar, and the man her in which the Russians QyeFy-sae the difficulties of mountain fighting in midwinter has been the subject of praise by those who witnessed the operations or are acquainted with the country traversed.
 The first phase of the battle of the Woevre also apparently has come to aE end, and interest now centers on the next move of General Joffre. the French ommander-in-chief, in nis effort to compel the Germans to re. lease their hold on St. Mihuel and that part of the plain of the Woevre included in their wedge. The capture of Les Eparges was, in the opinion of British military critics, a long step in the direction desired by the allies but they place even more importance on tho advance from Regnieville to ward Thiaucourt in the southwest as the latter town is a railway center from which the force at St. Mihuel draws it's supplies.
 This battle has not as yet proved the prelude to a general offensive in the west as was expected This is probably due to the fact that instead of moving troops from other points along the line to assist the army of the Woevre, the Germans have brought their endorsements from the interior of Germany or perhaps righs from the eastern front, and conse. quently the situation remains compar. atively quiet on the western front
 German submarines have again been showing activity and, besides the fIarpalyce, which according to one member of her crew, and the officers of another steamer, was torpedoes. they have attacked since Saturday night the British liner WayfareT the French steamer Frederic Franck and the little steamer President.
 The Wayfarer reached Queenstown in a sinking condition; the Frederic Franck was lowed into Plymouth and the President was still afloat when her crew of 10 left her

 He said that when the Krouprinz Wilhelm left New York last August and was overtaken by the German cruiser Karlsruhe, the commander of the latter gave him a naval code at sea which was an old code. The Eitel. he explained, later was prorid- ed with a revised German war wire less code. Thereafter, in view of the differences in codes, Captain Thier- fielder declared, every time the Eital heard the Wilhelm calling, Command. CT Thierichens thought he was being lured by a British war vessel that had obtained the old German code. and kept silent
 investigation is also being made at Washington into the clearance of the Kronprinz Wilhelm from New York for Bremen. Officers of the ship de clared the vessel was ordered to Bremen with reservists but that with out any warning they suddenly were oyertaken by the Karlsruhe in mid ocean and the orders changed. They insist that the clearance was proper but that orders for conversion into a wa1ship came after they had been en route to B.emen for three days.
 Officers and men of the British ships Tamar and Coleby, destroyed ny the Wilhelm, today were trans ferred to the British horse snip Gas sandra, which sailed tonight for Eng land Three officers of one of the French ships sunk, it was learned to- night, had been held aboard the Will helm because they refused to pledge themselves not to participate in the war against Germany, also were per mitted to leave aboard the Cassan- dra Their identity was not disclosed All the British sailors took the oath but claimed it was under duress.
 Ten more cases of beriberi were re. ported aboard the Wilhelm today. making a total of ll0 None of the men will be removed. Besides emer. gency supplies, l50 tons of coal and 50 tons of water for port purposes were taken aboard ship under govern ment supervision.
 Further evidence that alliel war ships were on the Wilhelms trail was given tonight by Captain Lucas of the British ship Berwindmoor, who fol lowed the German raider into the capes. He said that when the Vii 1 helm passed within the three-mifC limit he saw her stern reflected by q searchlight and that he later discov cred the light had been thrown frorl afar by a French cruiser
 Late tonight it was learned tha' preliminary survey of the Kronprin' Wilhelm had convinced experts tha' the ship could not be made seaworthy in less than three weeks. No officia. report to that effect has been made however. The Wilhelm's pumps were working constantly and the hilge water from her pipes was unusually heavy The leaks were caused by loosening of Ter plates occasioned by frequent coaling at sea and rammins merchantmen when shots failed to sink them.
 Commander Thierichens of the in- termed Prnz Eitel Friedrich, who dined tonight with Captain Thierfel- der. denied intimations that he had used his wireless while in port here to communicate with the Wilhelm. He had given his pledge to this gov ernment not to use his wireless, he said, and he had kept the pledge
