 ists Block Program.

Petrograd, July 1S.-The fact that Russia is in the throes of "Home Rule" agitations is given as the direct cause of the cabinet split. Ukrania, Finland and Kron- stadt, important points, are all seeking home rule and not inde- pendence. Cabinet resignations of the cadet members followed revel- ations that Foreign Minister Ter eschenko and Minister of Commu- nications Tsetetelli had gone to Ukrania, signing an agreement with Ukranian officials that they should be responsible only to the Ukranian congress, This agree ment was signed Saturday. At Mondays meeting the cadet mem- bers refused to ratify a pledge of radicals and socialists approving it. The cadet members then resigned.
 The cabinet crisis caused intense excitement at. Petrograd. All night Monday crowds thronged the streets, heavily armed. Auto loads of soldiers with machine guns final ly succeeded in dispersing the mObS

CL0UDBURST CAUSED
 LOSS OF S3OO,OOO
Knoxville Suffered Heavily From Torrential Rains-Many Hous-
 es Flooded.

Knoxville, Tenn, July 18.-The damage to Knoxville and adjoining counties from the cloudburst of Monday is estimated to be over $300,00O. The main losses were from streets and roads, crops, rail ways and flooded houses and manu- featuring plants in Knoxville.
 As the waters receded Tuesday morning the work of clearing up the debris and mud left by the streams began. Tuesday afternoon saw re- turn to almost normal conditions in the city as occupants moved back to their homes and mills and factories cleaned up their plants and premises so that full opera tions may be begun again Wednes- day.
 Street railway traffic was re sumed on schedule time Tuesday and railroad lines coming into Knoxville report trains operating in their usual order.
 Both First and Second creeks are back in their channels and the Tennessee river is falling rapidly.
 The scope of the torrential rain Monday was only oyer Knox county and adjoining counties. In Ham blen, Jefferson and Washington counties a severe rainfall was re- ported and crops were badly dam aged, while the pike roads were badly cut up.
 In Knoxville the city streets were damaged to the estimated loss of $50,000, while the damage to Knox county is placed at $100,000. This does not apply to the houses flooded and plants suffering from the high waters of Monday.

PHYSICIANS WILL
 JOIN THE ARMIES
Plan Suggested For Care of Fami- lies Of Those Who Go to Aid
 Wounded Soldiers.

A council of ten members of the Arkansas Medical Society met in Little Rock recently to consider the number of physicians and surgeons the state has to furnish for war purposes. It was voted to leave the matter to the County Medical Associations.
 To be eligible for military ser vice the physician must be between 22 and 55 years of age, graduate of reputable medical school, must have qualified to practice in some state, and must be engaged in act i've practice.
 In the matter of taking care oi tho practice of absent physicians it was suggested that physicians who do not enter the army attend to the practice of absent physicians and turn over to the families of ab- septee5 q per cent of the fees re- ce;ved from their patients, ranging from 20 to 50 per cent of the amount received.
 Army officials say 10000 medical officers will be needed for the army alone by Sept. 1, and with those to be assigned to base hos pitals, to Red Cross work, and tc aid the French and English, more than 30,000 physicians and sur geons will be needed before the end of the year for war purposes This is about twenty per cent oi the physicians in civil life in the United States at the outbreak oi the war. It is estimated that more than 25 per cent of the eligible physicians of the country will be needed by the government.
 The Greene County Medical So ciety has not met yet to consider the matter, but number of looa physicians have offered their ser vices to the government, and those who remain at home will do tho practice of those who go to th' front, and turn over to the fami lies of the absent physicians a pei cent of the proceeds of the ,prac tice of the absentees. Dr. Henr! Dickson and Dr, Castleberry ar' known to have rendered their ser vices and probably a number of th' county physicians have or will or fer themselves to the governmen during the war.

MAKE HUGE CUT IN
 PASSENGER TRAFFIC
Railroads Lop Off 16,267, OPS Miles of Train Service-To
 Save Man Power.

Washington, July 18.-Fairfax Harrison, chairman of the railroads war board, authorizes the follow ing:
 The railroads of the United States, as part of their efforts un- der the direction of the railroads war board to make available maximum of transportation energy for the movement of freight nee essarv for the successful conduct of the war, report the elimination of passenger trains aggregating l6,- 267,028 miles of train service per year.
 This is done by the railroads to save man power fuel and motive power that they may be applied to the transportation of necessities.
 Every ton of coal, every locomo- tive, every mile of track space, ev- cry man whose duties are absorbed by an unnecessary passenger train can be put to effective use in freight service, and nothing IS more necessary at the moment to insure the safety and prosperity Of the country than that the railroads be able to handle the utmost possi- ble amount of freight. The rail- roads in April gave some l5 per cent more freight service with prac tically the same facilities as in the same month last year.
 The elimination of passenger Ser vice already reported will make available for other purposes over 1.t2O,OOO tons of coal. Allegheny Mountains are still to be heard from.
 The railroad systems in the east ern department have cut out S,59S,- 696 miles of passenger train ser vice, thus saving 71G,113 tons Of coal per year. The Pennsylvania system eliminated 3,30O,000 miles of train service, thus saving 1SG,- 876 tons of coal. The New York Central plans to save 126,OOO tons of coal. The Erie has cut out r. 6OO.O00 passenger train miles, the Baltimore & Ohio 1,16S,5S6, the Chesapeake & Ohio S50,000.
 Roads in New England have ar ranged to eliminate 4,S47,332 pas senger train miles with saving of 256.724 tons of coal. The Boston & Maine cuts out 2,11S,94S miles of service, the New Haven 1,707,- 0O4 and the Maine Central 442,- GIG.
 The Pere Marquette and the Wabash, the only roads reporting as vet from the central department have eliminated together S46,0Oo miles of service and plan to save 49.555 tons of coal.
 The Southern railway has cut out 100000 passenger train miles and will save 97,2S2 tons oi coal

BIC SESSION OF
 THE A. Q. !. W.
Meeting Last Night Largely At tended Address by Grand
 Master Workman.

There was hardly standing room at the A. o. |. ". hall last night when the fight began between Par agould and Capital lodge of Little Rock for leading rank among the "A. o. U. w. lodges of the state. Extra chairs were brought in, boards and boxes utilized, and some even spread their handkerchiefs and sat on the floor.
 It was most suspicious opening for the big campaign and showed conclusvely that Paragould is dc termined in this, as in all other. things, to be a winner. And it showed also that Paragould realizes that she is facing no small job, for Capital lodge has accepted .the Paragould challenge, appointed her fcampaign committees and gone to work, and from now on till the contest closes the fur is going to fly,
 Urgent matters connected with i the work on the ten-stOry office building, now being erected in Lit 1 tie Rock by the A. Q. U. w., pre- vented the arrival of Grand Master Workman Jno k. Frazer until eve ming. But Mrs. Frazer made the trip alone and was on hand at the opening of the session. The eX- erciees were not long, nor in the least tiring. After several selections ] by the A. o. U. w. band, Master Workman Tom Taggart called the meeting to order, and introduced
 Hon. D. G. Beauchamp as the first speaker.
 Mrs Frazer was then presented and made a most enthusiastic ad- dress dealing with the great appeal the A. o. U. w. has to the wo- men. Short talks were also made Iby Grand Finance Committeeman A. B. Smith of Pine Bluff, and Deputy Grand Master Workman Ed gar Graham of Helena. Then the | floor was cleared and the visitors danced till the arrival of the Cot ton Belt train was announced, and |the committee returned to the hall, |escorting the Grand Master Work man. MT. Frazer is always ready and fluent speaker, but his response ito the welcome which greeted him occupied but a few moments, as he reserved the greater part of his in spring message for the meeting which has been announced for to- night. At the close of his re- marks, dancing began again and was continued till after midnight.
 During the evening the lodge members gathered in one of the ante-rooms and short business session was held in which the ap- plications of forty-two of Para gould's best men and women were
 favorably passed on for member ship in the local lodge, and a num- Der of these who were given the obligation which makes them mem bers of the order. As this is the
 result of only the first weeks work
 on the part of the members, it is
 a most encouraging sign of big
 things to come,
 Tonight there will be another lopen meeting of the lodge, and
 Thursday afternoon a meeting has been arranged for women of Para gould with Mrs. Frazer at tho
 lodge room at 3 o'clock.
