LIFTED i
 ON COTTON 10 |:
 NEW ENGLAND
Latest Remained in Effect Only 24 Hours, Inconven-
 fencing None Here.

The embargo, on cotton shipments to Eastern states points, is off again.
 It is much like Finnegan's fast train No. 4, the section foreman's celebrated dispatch to the superin- tendent about one of series of de- railments reading as follows, much as one would tell about the embargo:
 "Donegan: Off agin, on agin, gone agin. Finnegan."
 Put into effect Tuesday afternoon about 3 o'clock, the embargo will be ineffective today, according to an- nouncement received yesterday by To- cal agents of the Cotton Belt and Iron Mountain railroads.
 Twice within the past ten days an embargo on cotton shipments has been put into effect by railroads of the New England states, and twice it has been put out of effect a few hours thereafter. On each occasion there has been lot of excitement among cotton men, and much specu- lation as to the probable outcome. So far as can be ascertained, nobody has yet been hurt by the embargo or ders, because they remained in effect so short time that no interference with cotton shipments resulted.

LIQUOR DEALERS MAY BE 0USTED
 FROM MEMPHIS
Judge of U. S. Court Thinks Filling of Interstate Or
 ders Law Violation.

Memphis, Tenn, Jan. 19.-Whether or not the Webb-Kenyon federal law takes liquor shipments out of the merce commission when such ship ments reach prohibition state, and whether a wholesale liquor dealer in a dry state filling orders for inter- state shipment can be protected by federal laws, is question Judge Me Call of the United States court at Memphis, will decide upon the briefs to be submitted to him by attorneys representing the wholesale liquor firm of Laughter & Fisher, and c. M. Bryan, representing the city of Mem phis.
 Judge Mccall said from the bench this afternoon it was his opinion, without having gone fully into the subject that any wholesale liquor dealer who took out federal license and kept a stock of goods in Mem phis, from which interstate orders wer filled, was violating the state laws, and that such cases might not be construed as being under the in- terstate commerce law.
 He said his construction of the Webb-Kenyon law was that when a stock of liquor was shipped into a dry state to be resold, it ceased to cial decision will be made later, after he has examined the briefs and the laws more fully.

 SCHOOL BOARD
Drew White Chosen Secre- tary-Ad1itional Teacher
 at High School.


 William Nicho1 was yesterday elect ed a member of the Pine Bluff school board, at a special meeting of the board yesterday forenoon, to succeed Harry Hanf, resigned because of re- moval from the city.
 Drew White, already a member of the board, was elected secretary of the board, to succeed MT. Hanf in that capacity.
 Mrs. Virgil Mcclellan was appointed school, owing to the continued in- crease in the number of pupils at that school, and especially in view of the expected big influx of freshmen fol- lowing the examinations now under way.
 The election of MT. Nichol as a member of the board caused no sur prise, having been forecasted before the meeting of the board. He is one of the most prominent and best known residents of Pine Bluff and Jefferson county. and a member of one of the oldest families in this section.
 MT. Hanf's term expires in May, 1917. He has been member of the board, as we'll as it's secretary, for a number of years, having succeeded his father, who had served twenty. years or more on the body.
 Regret Resignation.
 The board unanimously adopted the following resolution on the resigna- tion of MT. Hanf:
 ''Whereas, On account of business engagements which require his ab- sence from the city large part of the time, MT. Harry Hanf has this day resigned as a member of the school board; and
 "Whereas, For nine years Mir. Hanf has been an influential and most eff cient member of said school board:
 ''Now, therefore, be it by the board of directors of special school district of Pine Bluff, resolved:
 "First. That it is with deep regret that the members of said board accept the resignation of Mr. Hanf.
 Second. By the resignation lof MT. Hanf the school board has lost a valuable member whose relations with the board were most pleasant and the public schools a most sincere and helpful co-worker."
 The board decided to hold its reg ular meetings the evenings of the first and third Thursday of each month, at the office of Director w. F. Coleman.
 B. A. Howell is president of the board, and other members are Leo M. Andrews and V. D. Wilkins. The terms of MT. Coleman and MT. White expire in May of this year. It developed yesterday that mem- bers of the Political Equality league had obtained an opinion from a local attorney as to the eligibility of a woman for membership on the school board, the opinion being to the enect that it is impossible, under the state law, for a woman to hold an elective office.

Austria's Terms So Harsh, Montenegrins Elect to
 Continue War.
KAISER APPEARS
 IN BALKAN AREA
Sofia Reports That Greek Government Has Demanded Withdrawal of AnglO-French Troops -Servians
 Land at SalOniki.

London, Jan. 19.-Montenegro has broken off peace negotiations with Austria, according to an official state ment issued today at the French en- bassy.
 King Nicholas and his family and suite, the Journale des Debats of Par is says, have sailed for Italy. The Austrian terms were so harsh that Montenegro, even though at the mercy of the invaders, could not &C., cept them. These terms, says a wireless dispatch from Rome, includ- ed the giving up of all railways and principal towns as well as complete disarmament, which was to continue after the war.
 In return, Nicholas, or his son, Prince Peter, was to rule over state comprising practically all of present Montenegro, except Mount Lovcen, and part of old Servia. Servia as nation was to be wiped i from the map.
 The following official statement was issued in Paris today and made public here at the same time by the French embassy:
 "The wireless news of the surren- der of the Montenegrin army appears somewhat premature. It is now an l nounced from another source that negotiations between Austria and Montenegro have been broken, the conditions of surrender imposed by Austria having been found quite un- acceptable by Montenegro.
 "The king, the royal family and the diplomatic corps are about to pro- ceed for Italy" Reports earlier today from Zurich and Rome said that peace negotia- tions were proceeding, that King Nicholas had returned to Cettinje. which is now held by the Austrians, and that preparations were being made for him to abdicate in favor of the crown prince, Peter. The agree ment between Austria and Montene- gro, it was said, dated back for a month.

German Emperor Holds Council with
 King Ferdinand.

London, Jan. 19.-The kaiser has signalized his recovery by making a visit in great military state to the Balkan theatre of war.
 At Nish, the "war capital" of con- quered Servia. the German emperor met King Ferdinand of Bulgaria yes- terday. The opinion here is that the meeting will prove historic. It is the kaiser's first visit to the Balkant since the war began, and the meeting of the two monarchs is regarded as more of a war council than friend- ly visit.
 The kaiser was attended by several members of the genera lstaff.
 The London Times Saloniki cor respondent wires:
 q have positive information that the Bulgarians are fortifying triple line of defenses. The first is at Ghevgheli, the second half way be- tween Ghevgheli and Kresna, and the third at Kresna."
