NEWSPAPER MAN
UNDER ARREST
j. G. Bennett OF jackson, indicted
On The Charge Of Bisamy-
Married Recently.

Jackson, Miss, April 27.-The ar
rest in this city yesterday of ]. G.
Bennett, well-known local newspaper
man, on the charge of bigamy, the in
dictment alleging that he has wife
and several children at Columbia, s.
c., has created a mild sensation in !
social circles here.
Bennett was married about one
month ago at Yazoo City to Miss Alice
Woodward, daughter of former pas
tor of the Methodist church at tlat
place. At the time of the marriage
Miss Woodward was principal of the
Poindexter school in this city, The
ceremony took place at the residence
of the brides sister, Mrs. j. B. Ellis,
wife of prominent druggist at that
place, and was performed by Rev. Hal
sey Werlein, Jr., rector of st. Andrews
church in this city. After returning
to Jackson they secured apartments
at fashionable boarding house. For
the past two weeks Mrs. Bennett has
been seriously i'll with heart trouble,
and other complications, and, until
few days ago, her life was despaired
Of.
The evidence on which Bennett was
indicted at Yazoo City was furnished
by his brother-inlaw, J. B. Ellis, who
had received several letters from the
alleged Mrs. Bennett No. 1, accom-
panied by documentary evidence
which, it is stated, proves that the
marriage actually took place. Mr..
Ellis came over from Yazoo City yes
terday with Sheriff Thos. Harris when
the latter served the warrant for Ben
netts arrest. He did not see the pris-
Ioner, however, but went Immediately
to the apartments of his sister-in-law,
to whom he broke the news as gently
as possible.
Before leaving Jackson Bennett re-
tanned Hon Ben H. Wells as his coun.
sci, and made the emphatic declara
ton that he will clear himself of the
charge. He does not deny personal
acquaintance with the woman, but as
serts that she is not his lawful wife
, He will request continuance of the
case until his witnesses who resides IL
distant states can be summoned.

of the lake rose, and the second dam
age, from indications noted just before
dusk, may prove greater than the first.
The Illinois Central has one exposed
stretch of track, laying along Lake
lPontchatrain, between Premier and De
Sair, and whenever strong east wind
blows the water rises and either en-
croaches upon the tracks or covers
them entirely.
The storm was particularly fierce at
the west end of Lake Pontchatrain,
and long before daylight the waters
began to rise in the thin line of cypress
swamp and move toward the railroad
tracks. AS the morning advanced and
the wind reached the proportions of a
small hurricane, the water rose in
waves and dashed through the swamp
turbulent flood, and soon the tracks
were deluged and for a mile or more
completely hidden from sight.
The residents of the locality, fisher
men and swampers, were fighting
against the elements In boats and Oh
RATS, and large stretch of the coun
try was entirely covered with water
and converted into an angry tossing
lake.

ARBITRATION
WAS DISCUSSED
Universal Peace A Mere Dream Under
Existing conditions-Disarma-
ment Favored.


st. Paul, Mimi, April 27.-In speak
ing on peace yesterday Baron d Els
tournelles de Constant quoted the fol-
lowing passages from the 1903 pro-
gram of the International Arbitration
Party in the French Parliament:
Some people profess to believe that
we, the supporters of arbitration,
would like to see it applied to all ques-
tons, and that even if We We're. tsSireat-
ened with invasion we should not call
fout the whole armed strength of the
nation but humbly ask to have the
matter decided by a tribunal pro-
posal which the enemy would be sure
to reject. 1t is time to explain, as
clearly and Enthusiastically as possible,
that, so far from being mere dreamers,
philosophers or men within country,
we have clear conception Of our duty
and our responsibility. We believe
that the policy we advocate for Eu-
rope is as clear, as prudent, as positive
and as full of promise as the policy
now followed is obscure and fraught
with confusion and danger
Universal peace and simultaneous
disarmament will never be anything
but dreams unless science and the
strictest and most methodical means
are employed to hasten their coming
It may already be said that disarma
ment will merely be the last stage Of
pacific evolution. Between this last
stage. and the aspirations we now
entertain there is many a mile to be
travelled, and always at the same pace
1t is useless to look for disarmament
unless we first try the effect of pro
Igressive reduction of ornaments; ant
this reduction itself will be necessarily
preceded by Limitation, halt in the
increase of ornaments. This limita
ton, however. implies great changes In

the relations among the powers, and
those changes must be set down in
treaties. Such treaties imply recip-
rocal recessions, due to respect for
justice and the consciousness of new
solidarity between the contra ting
states. Such treaties cannot be sue
cessfully carried out, nor even me-
gotiated, unless public opinion is thor
oughly prepared beforehand.
"On these lines, our program be-
comes very simple and clear. Our one
object is to bring international arbi-
tration into general acceptance and
induce governments to resort to a
reasonable and honorable way of set
ting, not all conflicts but the largest
possible number of them, by equitable
means"
