Indians WOrse Than Ever I'm Ari.
zOna.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March 3.-A pri-
vate letter received from Florence, Ar.
IONA, says the Indians are worse in Ari-
IONA to-day than ever before. Within
the past two weeks they have attacked
and killed or captured three different par
ties within twenty miles of this place.
One party of our men in charge of two
five mule trains, loaded with barley, was
attacked, and one man killed, and the
others escaping after vigorous fight. A
day or two subsequently the Indians at
tackled foraging party, consisting of
three men and four-hOrse team. Two
of the men were killed and the team
captured The next we heard of the
Indians, was, that they had killed two
men who were passing on horseback from
Location to Salt river.
Indians Preparing TO Move South of
the Pacific Railroad and occupy
their Reservation
CHICAGO, March 2.-Intelligence re-
c&ived at Lieut.. Gen. Sherman's head =
quarters in this city from Fort Laramie,
Washington Territory, and other points
in that region, show that the Indians are
breaking up their camps north of the Pa
cihc Railroad, and preparing to move
south on the opening of spring and &C.
cupy their reservation in the Indian Ter
ritory. The Arapahoes are foremost in
the move, having already started on their
journey in large numbers. Approximations
that the breaking I'D of the winter W Ould
at the same time cause trouble among the
savages themselves as well as the whites
are measursbly dispelled by this informa-
tion. Government agents are actively
engaged in assisting the movement of
tribes, and everything is expected to pass
off smoothly and war be averted. There
are great numbers of Indians in the re-
gion of the Pacific Railroad and Wyo-

IMPORTANT CASE IN THE SUI
PREME COURT.
Can n Man be fried Twice for the
Same OEfeuEe.

The concluding a Arguments were made
In case yesterday, before the Supreme
court, of more than ordinary interest, as
involving some very nice points of erim-
inal law and Jurisprudence. Tho case,
briefly stated, is about this ]: During mill
tary times, in the year 1865, a man named
Alfred Devers, Federal soldier, hated a
citizen Of Williamson county, named Holt,
and demanded his money Mr. Holt re-
fusing to comply with the demand, Devers,
as Is alleged, killed and robbed him on the
spot. After the deed Was contaminated, he
was arrested, and tried by court-martial
ana convicted. He was subsequently, how
ever, psrdoned by the officers and set at
liberty. On the restoration of law and or
der, and the establishment Of the courts,
DeVers was indicted before the civil courts
Of Williamson county for murder, rear
rested, tried and convicted. He appealed
from the sentence of the Williamson court
to the Supreme Court. The case came up
at the present term of the court, and
has elected considerable interest The
points involved, as we understand the
case, are whether a man can be
tried twice for the same offense, or wheth-
er a conviction by q oOurt-martisl and a
subsequent pardon by military powers,
form q bar to proceedings and action
against the party under civil process and
in the civil courts. The investigation and
adjudication Of the case induced q wide
range of legal research and drew from the
attorneys much legal lore aud many points
well made. The case was ably argued fo-
the defense by Judge Lawrence, Judge
David Campbell and Mr.. Wallace, of
Franklin, and by the Attorney General for
the prosecution, Judge Campbell closing
the argument. The case was submitted
yesterday and a decision viii De made IL
the same some time during next week.

Special to the Union and American.
MEMPHIS, March 8, 1920 P. M.-Bar-
bour Lewis-the great Barbour-has
called the Negro Loyal Leagues together.
1t is said his purpose is to manufacture
capital for Ben Butler out of the riot and
murder of Reeves at Somerville. The me-
groes have lost faith in Barbour; but
curiosity draws great crowds.
Extensive preparations are making for
the next Agricultural Fair. One thous-
and dollars are offered for the best acre
of cotton.
The Appeals second special from Lit
tie Rock says the recent row among the
the Radicals, by repelling immigration,
has cost Arkansas many millions. 1t also
says both Houses are now engaged in
? their regular business, and impeachments
and personal abuse have ceased for the
present. 1t was expected that Clayton
would set at rest to-day the conjectures
concerning his future course. 1t is now
said that the ring in the Senate will not
bring on the trial of impeachment until
after March 4, to prevent Clayton from
accepting the Senatorship. 1t is known,
however, that he is anxious to 90 to
Washington, but his friends are deter
mined, if possible, to prevent it. 1t is
the general wish that he may go; but 1
can say positively that he will remain.

Discussing the Irish Question In
Parliament
In the House of Commons, this even.
ing, Patten, Conservative member from
North Lancashire, resumed debate on
the Irish question. He urged the with
draHal of the motion for a committee to
devise further measures and grant greater
powers to enable the goVernm, Mt to effec-
tually repress the mischief of secret COM
binstions in Ireland, and particularly in
West Meath county, and return to the
policy authorizing the government to sus-
pend the writ of habeas corpus in cases
of necessity. He said the government
had, by its motion, confessed failure of
its Irish policy.
Mr.. Gladstone, In reply, objected to
the course suggested by the member from
North Lancashire, which, he said, was
based on an exaggerated statement of Mr..
Goschen. In reply to the remarks of
D'Israeli, he said he was quite willing to
see the right honorable gentleman exult
over the supposed superiority of the
Tory policy, which was simply that of
conquest; but that in the meantime the
might postpone inquiry If
upon investigation it was found to be IN
timely and premature; that the Govern
ment would violate the constitution if it
should suspend habeas corpus uRless ne
cessity for such action was first assured
by inquiry. He concluded by q warm
appeal for the adoption of the motion be-
1OI6 lu0 hOu66.
The Premier was evidently Ill, and ex-
hibited signs of anxiety.
Sir Robert Peel and other members
followed in a vigorous attack upon the
asserting that action, and
not investigation, was wanted; action
which the opposition would gladly back
to check dissatisfaction, infamed from
America
The Solicitor General interposed, and
denounced the ingrstitude shown the
leader, who has insured the passage of
30 many important measures without ever
before mourning the denunciation of a
minded Tory. He scored Disraei
IS Shakespeare's lean spothecary, whose
poverty, and net his will, drove him to
'uch resources.
Mr.. Mcguire, at this point moved an
of debate, but Disrseli and
Gladstone both protested against closing
lebate, and defeated the motion for ad-
ournment. The House, also, defeated,
amid great excitement, motion for a Sc
ect committee, adopted by 81 majority,

She came from Chattanooga on the morn

Immediately raised the alarm, but the
thieving rascals fled and were lost sight Of
She was on her way to Lebanon to see her
son and pay his tuition. She remained at
the depot till the 6 o'clock train on the
Tennessee and Pacific road left, when she
proceeded to Lebanon without recovering
her funds. What pity it is that such

prowl around depots, hotels and public
places unknown, unsupported and unwhipt
of justice.
