 HANDLE OF PUMP
Couple With Whom Mr. Cox Resided in Center of Town Know Nothing of Crime Until Awakened Yes.
 terday by Mortified Negro.

Lonoke, Feb. 21.-Nlth the skull crushed by blows rom a pump handle. lying nearby, the body of John Cox, 65 years of age, father of Rev. Ben Cox of Memphis, was found on the doorsteps of his home early this morning by negro delivery man who called to awaken Mr. Cox. The pump handle, smeared with blood to which clung strands of gray hair, was found in the yard. Officers have no doubt but that the slayer used it to strike down his victim. 1t is their only clue. although it is be- lieved robbery might have been the motive. MT. Cox was known to carry large sums of money and to keep virtually all his earnings in his house.
 One hundred and seventy dollars in currency were found in one of MT. Cox's shoes, and checks for large sum of money were found in the other shoe There was no money in the pockets of his clothing.
 MT. and Mrs. Lenner Mann, with whom MT. Cox resided. were asleep when the murder was discovered. They knew nothing of Mr. Cox $ absence from the house late Tuesday night.
 Bloodhounds from the state con- vict farm at Tucker were put on the trail shortly before noon, Sheriff Swain having made the trip for. the dogs.
 Sheriff Swain and the posse re- turned here late tonight after an un- successful search for the slayer.
 Coroner s. A. Southall, one of the first persons to arrive after the ne- gro, Bob Fry, discovered the body. started an inquest, but shortly after noon Wednesday postponed it until Thursday morning,

BRITISH LORE 0F ADMIRALTY 1ALkS
 Of U-BOAT WAR Carson Declares Entente Allies Have Taken Meas
 ures to Mitigate It. REPORTS SEVERAL
 SUBMARINES SUNK German Minister of Navy, Addressing ReichStag, Asserts Gcrlnany's EX- pectatiGnS Surpassed and Not
 U.Boat Lost.
Associated Press RevicW.D

(AssOciated Press RevicWD The German submarine campaign was described to parliament by Sir Edward Carson. lord of the admir- atty, as grave and serious, but he said measures have been taken by the en. tente, under which it will be miIi- gated by degrees.
 From February 1. when Germany began her intensified submarine war fare, to February IS, :llied and neu- tral vessels aggregatlnG 3Oi ,000 tons had been sunk. it was asserted, com, pared with tonnages of 223,00O anl 19S,00O respectively for the same periods in December and January These tonnages include small vessels sent to the bottom.
 Sir Edward announced that the ad- miralty had records of i0 encounte' s with submarines during the first eighteen days of February and in stanced several cases where under water boats had been captured oT sunk, but without goins, into particu- lars.
 Coincidentally, the German min ister of the navy, in all address be fore the reichstag, asserted that Ger many's submarine expectations ha ! been surpassed and there was reason to believe that not single II boat hai been lost.

Chicagoans Declare I. c. C.. and Railways Have Lost
 Control of Sitution.
TRAFFIC TIE-UP
 GROWS MENACING
With Millions of Bushels of Grain Held Up, Drastic Methods Taken by Rail- roads to Meet Emergency for
 Fuel and Food in East.

Chicago, Feb. 21.-1t was authorita- lively stated today that unless action adequate to solve the car shortage situation has been taken by Friday next, the administration of the Chi cago board of trade will appeal to President Wilson and congress to take the situation out of the hands of the railroads and the interstate commerce commission, as might be done in times of war, and place it in the hands of a body with dctatorial powers for the time being.
 In a public statement made today by J. P. Griffin, president of the Chi cago board of trade, it is asserted that in addition to 40.OO00OO bushels of grain in Chicago awaiting shipment, there are from 50,00O,0Go to 75,Oo0,0 more bushels in country elevators, held up because of the congestion here.
 q have no hesitancy in declaring that both the interstate commerce commission and the railroads are com pletely overwhelmed and have lost their grip on the situation,'' said MT. Griffin. 'As matter of fact, the in tervention of the interstate commerce commission has been rather harmful than otherwise, and the method of re lief insisted upon or offered by them has been fanciful and without sub stantia! results
 The statement asserts that unless a remedy is found. the demoralizatlon will extend to all commodities. MT. Griffin's attention was invited to an official statement that there IS car shorage of 109,0 ,000 cars
 "I do not know just what those fig ures mean" he said, "but I do know that we could use 10000 cars in Chi cago right now.''
 Telegrams along the lines covered in his statement were sent by MT Griffin to the presidents of principal Western railroads and to the inter- state commerce commission earlief in the day.

Conserve Fuel Supply.

Washington, Feb. 21.-Drastic meas ures of precaution were adopted by chiefs of railroads of the East today to meet every emergency need for coal and foodstuffs rom the Mississippi river to Maine, due to the acute short age and the congestion of freight cars.
 Chief of these measures was the dispatch of rush orders to all roads concerned for prompt transportation of gasoline, coal and coke to IS towns and cities, including Chicago, Detroit, Indianapolis, Toledo and Springfield, Ill.,. where, it was announced, there is danger of interruption of light, water and power service unless the shortage of fuel is relieved at once."
 The interstate commerce commits sion is working to meet tho situation in cooperation with the railroad men. A telegram from President Griffin of the Chicago board of trade, asserting that there is danger of rioting unless there is an embargo on all shipments south of Chicago, except fuel and food stuffs, aroused considerable indigna- tion among the commissioners and drew a prompt reply.
 Assertions in the message are de clared to be "erroneous," as far as they reflect upon the steps taken by the commission to relieve the situation at Chicago. Commissioner McChord replying to portion of the telegram which was not made public, and which apparently charged that he had ruled Chicago could expect to relief from the commission, declared "the tele- gram contains many statements which are not true."

Washington, Feb. 21-Yesterday s bread riot in New York claimed at- tention in the senate today during the debate on increased salaries for gov ernment clerks. Senator Thomas, Democrat, of Colorado expressed the opinion that increases in salary were no cure for the increased cost Of liv- ing.
 "That is not the way to remedy bread riots," said Senator Thomas. e'The way to deal with that is to take those who corner food supplies by the throat. I dislike to see food riots in free America, but I can see that it might be the first step toward relief"

Feb. 21.-Mayor Mitchell tonight instructed the police. health and charities departments to make another investigation of the food con ditlonS throughout the greater city, and report Friday, when he will place before the bureau of estimates a re- quest of East Side housewives that *lo0O,OOo be appropriated to buy food Tor distribution at reasonable price <.
 This action followed the resllmp- tion of rioting by housewives in vari- ous parts of the city, and the visit If a committee, which declared children are starving because of the high o,t of toodstuffs
 The rioting today, while milder than that of yesterday, extended to terminal piers of railroad companies, where it had been reported several hundred carloads of vegetables were being held from the market.

 The department of health issued a bulletin suggesting means of meet ing the high prices. One of the bull tc costs 6 cents and contains 16iO food units, whereas a pound of potatoes costs [ cents and contains only 37o food units. Several recipes for the use of rice to replace vegetables, were given.
 Three women were arrested for at tacking another woman, who was homeward bound from store with a bag of potatoes. Housewives who volunteered as pickets were posted in front of groceries and vegetable stores in some of the poorer quarters, where the women declare they are determined to enforce the boycott against potatoes, onions and cabbage until the prices are lowered. No other arrests have been made.
 "MOther" Jones, widely known as a labor agitator, arrived here today, and announced that she will lead 10.- 900 East Side housewives to the city hall Saturday afternoon, to ask Mayor Mitchell "just what Ee proposes to do"and unless his prOpasls are satis- factory, she will take delegation of starving women" to Washington Sunday and Hay the case of New York's poor before the president"
