OPERATORS WILL
NOT ARB|TRATE
WANT ROOSEVELT C0MMIS-
SION TO DECIDE
Mine Owners Claim "Any Agreement
to Arhitrate Will Be Looked
Upon as Surrender to
Anarchy"
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 10.--The anthra-
cite operators at their conference with
the mine workers here today declined
the proposition to have the conciliation
board arbtrate all grievances sub
mitted by the wage workers and made
a counter proposition that the commits
sion appointed by President Roosevelt
in 1902 be requested to decide whether
any changes in conditions in the hard
coal region have occurred which re-
quire that the award of the commits
sion should be modified.
The mine owners limited the inquiry
to two grevances-wage and meth
cd for the adjustment of complaints
The miners have taken the proposal
under consideration and may give the
operators an answer on Thursday,
when another conference between the
/, subcommittee of the parties will be
held. In the meantime the miners
committee of thirty-siX will hold ses-
sions and agree on a reply, and the
operators will remain idle awaiting de-
velopments.
Operators Express Views
in connection with today's confer
ence George E. Baer. chairman of the
mine owners subcommittee, made
public letter sent to the committee
by the Independent operators in which
they gave their views and expressed
their firm conviction that any agree
ment to arbitrate with the United Mine
workers will be an unjustifable sur
render to anarchy and mob violence"
The letter came as a great surprise
to the miners and did not tend to bring
the cortending parties closer together.

BA|LEY'S SPEECH
LOUDLY CHEERED
CONTINUED from Page ons.l

What the senator has said hereto
fore and later with reference to the
final adjudication of all questions by
the court has tended more than any
thing else to disentangle this subject
and to secure, 1 will not say immedia-
tely, but a more beneflcent result than
anything that has taken place"
He agreed with Mr.. Baileys argu-
ments that inferior courts could be
controlled by congress, saying on this
point that this argument could not be
countervailed, but that was minor
question.
Question Well Stated
1.-THE final question" he said, 'has
been stated by the senator from Texas
better than l can state it. That after
the commission has passed upon a
question and it has taken without un-
due delay and the right of injunc-
ton limited by congress to the courts
that the supreme court shall consider
all questions and the senator is right
in saying
Mr.. Hale: NO, finally the supreme
court: that is if it gets so far as that.
But the senator is right in saying
whether it shall be just compensation
or lust and reasonable, or any othel
term is not of Importance, that the
court will settle it all and will finally
decide.
Will Strengthen Commission

fully to this general result. The com
mission will be strengthened. | thinl

that the senate has largely contributed

plain"
Mr.. Bailey expressed qualification
over the Endorsement and expressed
his regret that he had not been able t.
agree with Messrs Knox and Spooner
''They have" he said, taken a posi-
| ton never before taken in the senat
or advocated by the courts in thei
effort to draw distinction betweel
| jurisdiction and judicial powers. The,
could get a patent on it for it's novelty

BY Associated Press.


BAKERSFIELD, April 1O.-Deputy
Sheriff Baker returned tonight from the
scene of the killing of the Indian wom-
an. Marie, in TETON canyon. He brought
with him Augusta Lugo, the Indian
who is held on suspicion.
officer Baker found that not only was
the woman's throat cut, but her head
was laid open with an ak and her fea-
aures crushed out of recognition. The
officer closely inspected the premises
and as a result brought to light the
ak, which had escaped the observation
of the others and with which the deed
was done. 1t was a mass of blood and
hair and the weapon is now in the pos
session of the deputy.
Officer Baker made a thorough exam
ination of the country about the scene
of the crime, but found nothing further
to connect Lugo with the murder.

Indian Tells Conflicting Stories

The old man, however, has told the
officer conflicting stories as to his
whereabouts on Sunday night and has
contradicted himself many times.
There are over thirty hours that he
cannot account for, and threats to kill
the woman and proximity of the crime
and blood on his shirt warrant his
being detained and he is now in jail
in this city.
Coroner Mullins held an inquest at
the TETON ranch this morning. The
jury visited the scene of the murder
and inspected the body, but in the in
vestigation that followed there was
little evidence adduced.
The jury brought in a verdict that
the woman came to her death by
wounds made by an ak in the hands OF
parties unknown to the jury.

WAREHOUSE
MEETING
Farmers Had Charge of
the Town Yesterday.
MANY DELEGATES HERE
Good Speeches were Delivered
and all Present were
Enthusiastic.

The town belonged yesterday
to the Farmers Union. They
were here in punches and all
seemed to be perfectly at home,
taking in the sights and discuss
ing among themselves subjects
interesting to members of the
union.
The attraction for so many
Farmers Union men to Winn-
field was warehouse meeting
called to discuss the warehouse
subject and to ratify the location
of and the plans for the state
central warehouse soon to be
erected in Winfield and which
is now under construction.
The courthouse, with seating
capacity of 700, would not hold
the crowd that was here. Every
corner was filled. including the
doors and windows, but all man
aged to hear most of the
good points touched upon by the
different speakers and as the
speaking progressed enthusiasm
seemed to increase. A number
of ladies were present.
The house was called to order
at 10 O'Clock by j. w. Boyett,
Jr., who acted as chairman and
stated the object of the gathering
and introduced Hon. Harry p.
Gamble, who delivered an adj
dress of welcome.
President Holmes of the State
Farmers Union responded to the
address of welcome in splendid
talk on the necessity for organi-
zatlon, education and co opera
tion among farmers.
The next speaker was Hardy
Dial of Nacogdoches, Texas. He
delivered a sound lecture and set
forth some of the reasons for the
present bad condition among the
farmers and pointed out way to
change these conditions for the
better.
The chairman then introduced
w. Biggs of Shreveport who
spoke at some length on the cot
ton warehouse subject. He rep
resents a warehouse building as
sociatlon and gave some facts and
figures that proved interesting to
the audience.
n. Guillory of st. Landry
parish was the last speaker. He
made a very favorable impression
on the large audience, coming
from a newly organized territory
and bringing encouraging news
from that section.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Gull
lory's talk the meeting adjourned
! for dinner.

GOOD REVIVAL
is OVER
Closed at the Methodist
Church Wednesday.
MUCH GOOD WAS DONE
The Sermons were Forceful and
Elequent--75 Reclaimed
and Converted.

The revival meeting, which has
been in progress at the Methodist
Church for the past two weeks,
closed Wednesday night with a
full house. The attendance has
been good throughout the meet
ing and the interest has grown
from the beginning. On Sunday
night many were turned away
for lack of room. The general
impression is that it was fine
meeting and that great good has
been done. The church has been
revived and strengthened, back
sliders reclaimed and sinners con-
verted to God.
The last few nights of the
meeting large number of persons
of all ages testified to having been
blessed. and strengthened in faith
and determination to live a diff
ferent life.
Most of the preaching was done
| by Rev. w. NJ. Mcintosh, of
Iuka, Miss. He is a very earnest
and forcefnI speaker and some
times grows eloquent. He de-
nounces SIN i'm the most fearless
manner and some of his sermons
made a profound impression.
The sermon on "Conscience and
Record will never be forgotten
by those who heard it, and the
sermon on "Ye are the Light of
the World" was very fine. His
sermons for men only held Sun
day afternoons were well attend
ed ahd a large number have re-
solved to lead better lives.
Mrs. Mary Bartlett, of Pine
vile, La. rendered efficient aid in
the pulpit and in the altar service.
while Rev. A. L. Galloway. of
Wynne, Ark, gave great salts
faction as leader of the choir.
The solos by Miss Gum were
highly appreciated. The number
of persons converted or reclaimed
is abont 10, and As have given
their names for membership in
the different churches. Those
who have joined the Methodist
lchurch will be received next Sun
day at IL a. m.
Work has been resumed on the
j. Bernstein building and will
continue until the building Is
completed. 1t Is understood
that Mr.. w. o. Allen will oc-
cupy the building when it is COM
pleted. He is proprietor of the
Rouss Racket Store.

OIL FLOWS
AT COLDONNA
A Flow is Reported at
That Place.
WELL is 544 FEET
Casing Will Be Set and the
Well Washed Out and Tested
For Oil.

The Sentinel received a tele-
phone message Wednesday eve
ming from Mr.. w. +. Leach, who
Is drilling an oil well at Goldon-
ma for the Louisiana and Arkan-
sas Railroad, stating that he had
struck oil, but he could not give
an estimate of the value of the
strike as measured by the guam
lty of oil until the casing can be
set and the we'll washed out. A
stiff mud has been used to pro-
tect the walls of the we'll against
the sand and gas and the mud inn
peds the flow of oil into the we'll.
Another rock had been struck
and the casing will he set on this
and the we'll washed out.
The we'll is only 544 feet deep
and the finding of oil at this
depth in the Goldonna territory
makes the prospects at Winfield
all the more valuable. 1t is only
about Is miles from Winfield
and the surface indications are
similar. The surface deposits of
salt, the flow of gas and salt
water and rock formations give
the stockholders of the Pace Oil
Company. Limited, considerable
encouragement. The well of this
company is going down rapidly
and macy who had a chance to
invest in the enterprise are want
ing to know If they can get in on
the ground floor.
The day the Pace we'll comes
in, which we have every reason to
believe will be soon, we shall is
sue the initial number of The
Daily Sentinel. We do not claim
to be a prophet, but twenty-three
years ago today we wrote an arti-
Gle and published it in The Sou
thern Sentinel predicting the
present prosperity of this section.
The article will be reprinted next
week.
