Already claims fer exemption are being received in voluminous quantity at the office of the two selective boards of this county. much the great CT quantity being received by the city beard, and it is expected that before the arrival of Monday. when the first men will appear for examination the boards will be literally flooded with such claims.
 The following notice was issued yesterday by Selective Board No. 1. A. H. Rowcll chairman. w. C. Hudson secretary, being tho first of what is expected to be long serial of the same nature:
 "Now on this day the matter of the discharge of Howard Strauss, Henry Fl.

 Some few errors have been discov- cred in the work of the boards by the olcrks, who have been checking back. but these are being corrected without difficulty or inconvenience to any. That there would be some errors, was expected. in view of the vast amount of detail. and therefore no surprise was created.

LONDON GIVES
 SOLDIER BOYS
 WELCOME HAND

Correspondence Associated Press. ]
 London, July 10.-Soldiers on leave from the front in the early days of the war had the greatest difficulty in finding their way about London and across it to the main line centers leading to their Iprovincial homes, but this has all been altered and what was once chaos at Victoria station now works like any part of the mili- tary machine.
 This has been made possible by the help of the volunteers of the national guard and by members of the wom- ems reserve ambulance company who take charge of the men on their ar rival, change their French money into English, grant them loans and per sonally conduct them to the various tations they may require to travel from. The same thing is done when leave. is up, The soldier, used to discipline. likes to be landed from one to another rather than being left in a strange place on his own devices.

IO,OI5 EMPTY CARS
 ARE DELIVERED I0
 ROADS HEREAR0UTS
Cotton Belt Gets 5,949 and Missouri Pacific 4,066
 Under Orders.

There should be few complaints, if any at all, of car shortage in Pine Bluff, as the result of the recent or der of the railroad war board. in di- recting that great number of freight cars held by roads m the north and east be distributed immediately among the roads of the south, south east and southwest
 The official announcement of the distribution shows that the Cotton Belt is to get 5,949 cars from other roads, some of these having already been turned over to the Cotton Belt and the remainder to be turned over within the next few days. The Mis- souri Pacific is to get 4,066 cars, mak ing an aggregate of 10,015 cars b. ing sent to these two roads alone
 The cars, of course, will not Ie- main continuously in the possession of these roads. as they will be used in handling shipments of freight origin ating on these two systems, but com ing, as it were, "in ounch," the cars will serve to give both these roads and especially the Cotton Belt, fresh start and virtually remove all the difficulties which have been caused by car shortage for months past.
 Many of the cars already have been loaded and shipped north. cast and west, quite considerable number carrying lumber and other such sup plies for the government, to be used in the erection of the army canton ments, National Guard camps anl for other government works. Still others. however. have been used in ordinary commercial freight hauling, and barring unforeseen developments, it is expected the Cotton Belt and Mis- souri Pacific have seen the last. for solr5a time at least of taeir car shortage problems.
