Special to The News.
 Little Rock, Feb. 1.-The supreme court has affirmed the seven years sentence of Henry Mccain.
NECESSITY CONTINUES FOR
 CONSERVATION OF FUEL

Little Rock, Feb. 1.-The approach of spring does not make any less im- perative the necessity of conservation of fuel. Ships must be sent abroad with men, munitions and supplies, and coal is needed to move the ships.
 There is not enough coal for this purpose if the whole country con- tinues it's profiigate use. Here is a statement showing how coal can be saved:
 A scoop of coal averages 16 pounds; i; 1900 to 2000 tons sends battleship across the ocean; the combined efforts of the railway firemen of the United States in saving one shovelful of coal in every fifty used would result in a saving of two million tons per year; this would send a fleet of 1000 battle ships to the enemy's shore; 42,000 locomotives in the United States aver age six tons per day, or 750 scoops. What is true of locomotives is true of every other consumer of coal.

GUARDING LEVEES AGAINST
 DAMAGE BY FLOODS

Little Rock, Feb. 9.-Alfred Fair bank, division director of the civilian relief of the American Red Cross, wrote to Governor Brough to know what steps have been taken, or what can be taken, to guard against the dynamiting of the levees along the Mississippi, the Arkansas and the White in case of flood.
 The governor replied that he had called conference of those interest ed in the St. Francis river levees, held week ago, at which plans were discussed for guarding the levees and providing against damage by flood.
 All that the governor can do is to issue a deficiency proclamation to provide funds for supplying levee guards, as the state has no tents, supplies or equipment of any kind. The State Board of Health is quali- fled to handle effectually any disease contagious that might arise from flood conditions.

WILL NOT HONOR BILLS
 FOR AUTOMOBILE SERVICE

The War Department has requested the local boards not to hire automo- piles to transport quotas to the near est railroad station from their homes, unless the cost is not greater than the cost of street car service. Many boards, under the first draft, put the government to great expense in this manner, and while it was recognized that it was but the outpouring of their patriotism and a desire to properly honor the new soldiers, the quarter master generals department has an- nounced that such bills will not be allowed in the future.

f ARKANsANS LISTED
 WITH THE M|Gs|NG
qa5 Soldiers on Board the Tus- cania Not Accounted For Number Missing May Be Re
 duced With Complete Report.

Washington Feb. 10.-Eighteen hundred and thirty-two names of American soldiers rescued from the +orredoed liner Tuscania had been renorted tonight to the War Depart ment leaving 345 of the soldiers on hoard unaccounted for. No official renort has reached the department to cbsnge the estimate that all except 113 of the men were saved, but the names have been coming in very slowly over the cables and there is no assurance as to when the list will be complete.
 Six Arkansans who were on board are among those not yet accounted for Their names may be added later to the list of survivors.
 The missing Arkansans are:
 William r. Bennett, Rogers.
 Nathan E. Short, Stephens.
 Claud Bradley, Swatty.
 James R. Potillo, Huntington.
 Sterling Collon, St. James.
 Bell NJ. Williams, Glenwood.
 From the names so far received and the passenger list of the lost steamer the Associated Press has compiled the record of those still not reported. Probably more than 200 of the men whose names appear on this record are safe in Ireland and will be so re- ported soon.
 The preparation of the list, even in its incomplete form, represents an aggregate of 40 hours of labor. The War Department has only issued an official roll of those on the ship.

J. $. PATROL IN NO
 MANS LAND AMBUSHED
Five Americans Killed, One is Wounded and Four Missing Lone Survivor Wounded in the Chest and Cannot Talk.

With the American Army in France, Feb 9.-Five American soldiers are believed to have been killed, four are missing and one was wounded when an American patrol was ambushed in No Mans Land last night by super for force of Germans.
 The spot where the encounter oc- cured is an isolated one and reports concerning the casualties inflicted by both sides are meager.
 Only one American is known to have escaped the trap of the Germans, which was laid in front of our wires. One survivor, who crawled back to the American lines with a bullet in his chest, is unable to talk.
 Our artillery immediately laid a barrage around the ambushing Ger mans and some are believed to have been accounted for The infantry ac- counted for others, as it is certain the attacked patrol fought to a finish ac. cording to information trickling in from the front line.
 Our patrolling soldiers were work ing in front of our wire entanglements when a big enemy patrol that had been divided into parties which took up concealed positions opened fire at a1nco Tho ,,..shf o1a T the ofrms of the Americans made the best possible targets for the hidden Germans. There is no doubt but that the Americans battled gallantly until completely overpowered.
 The artillery duel in our sector con- tinued today. Scores of airplanes were out observing and making photo graphs. The men in the line were thrilled by number of air duels high in the sky over their heads.
 An American general now con- mands the sector of the front recently taken over by our troops. When the Americans first entered the sector it was under the command of a French general commanding certain large unit of the French army. Now we have control.
 In turning the sector over to the American general on Feb. the French commander issued a general order in which he expressed complete satisfaction with our troops and was confident that the sector was in good hands, and if attacked, would defend it with great valor.

Little Rock, Feb. 9.-It is estimated at the State Highway Department that 10000 automobile license tags will be issued this year. Only little more than 10000 have been issued so far, which means that there are about eight thousand automobiles in the state last year that have not applied for license yet this year.

Stockholm. Feb. 9.-Al diplomatic couriers on their way to Petrograd have been detained in Stockholm be- cause of instructions received by the Finnish ministers here to wise no passports for foreigners.
 Ira Nelson Morris. the American minister, has received information from Tornea, on the Finnish border, that train had left there for Petro- grad, but that there was no certainty that it would get through to the Rus sian capital
 A Swedish relief boat will leave to- morrow for Manty-Luoto, taking pro- visions and money furnished by Min ister Morris for the American consul at Helsingfors.
 Scandinavian refugees brought to Stockholm by the first Swedish relief expedition tell narrowing stories of wholesale murder by the red guards in Helsingfors and Tammerfors. In the latter city, according to reports some of them bring, 70 youths were stood against wall and moved down with machine gun fire while they wept and pleaded for mercy. Their bodies were then stripped and mutilated
 The red guards are reported hunt ing down students remorselessly and the total murders in Helsingfors, it is estimated, will reach into the hun dreds.
 The situation has got entirely out of the hands of the Socialist leaders of the type of Senator Manner and former Premier Tokio, the accounts 1 indicate.
 Persons familiar with Finland de- clare they have no doubt the majority of the country's Socialists are fighting on the governments side. They point out that the district where the white guards strength was chiefly recruited is normally Socialist stronghold. The revolt, they contend, could be quickly suppressed if it were not for the Russian soldiers and sailors who are fighting on the side of the reds on orders from the Smolny Institute in Petrograd.

London, May 25.--Germany's untfring
efforts to foment revolution in Ireland
with the aid of the Sim Fein are laid
bare in a statement from the official
press bureau reviewing this phase of
the Irish political situation since the
beginning of the war.
After the abortive rebellion of Easter
week, 1915, plans were made for re-
volt in 1917. but this miscarried be-
cause of Americas entry into the war
and Germany's inability to send troops
to Ireland An uprising in Ireland was
planned for this year after the German
offensive in the west had been success
full and when Great Britain presuma-
bly, would be stripped of troops.
Concerning the recent arrests in Ire
land, the statement says that facts and
documents for obvious reasons, cannot
be disclosed nor can the means of com
munication between Germany and Ire
land. One phase of every plan called

bases in Ireland. Under the present cir

BREAK MEANS LITTLE
A break between Cuba and Mexico,
it is felt, disrupts practically nothing
but long standing friendly relation
with the subject, it may actually give
Cuba a free hand, as the Mexican for
eign minister says in his announce
ment, but perhaps not in the manner
suggested. American agents for some
time have been reporting German
agents operating in Cuba, some of
them crossing frequently to the United
States as Cuban citizens or Mexican
citizens. A severance of diplomatic re-
lations probably would leave the Gu
ban government feeling more at Hb-
erty to investigate their activities.
When first-class powers are con-
cerned "a break in diplomatic relations
