Conti.+esfsy Will End in Few Days Spirited Letter ta, Nark-
 nam.

Chicago, H., Sept. 5.-NotWithstand- ing that spirited letter protesting against the stand taken by the Illi- nois Central officials was sent Presi- dent c. H. Markham tonight by the International officials who have charge of the efforts of the Employees System Federation to obtain con- ference, it is believed the controversy will end in few days.
 The International officials in their letter explain the methods used by the System Federation in serving the thir- ty days notice. Before this letter was sent the labor officials held an all day and night meeting in the office of w. F. Kramer, international secretary of the blacksmiths. They decided that this was not an opportune time to strike and then sent for Chairman J. s. McCreary and Secretary w. D. Bowen, of the Employees System Federation of the Illinois Central and discussed the situation with them.
 The International officials said that owing to the business conditions the preparedness of the company and the lack of money in many of the inter- national treasuries, it would be best to postpone taking drastic action un- til a more opportune time

 Judge Philpot says that he had hop cd the case would not be brought be- fore him again but that the request of the attorneys for modification ef the original order, giving the saloon
 men the right 10 continue in business until the appeal is heard, and which hearing must be had with certain time or the saloon closed, adds new phase to the case. It is believed that Judge Philpot will permit the saloon men to reopen and do business until at least October 9, before which time the appeal must be disposed of or the order revoking their license goes in- to effect

.ElKS THEATER
 TO OPEN TONIGHT
'smart Set" Company Wifi be the Initial Attraction for the 1911.12
 Season.

If the latest musical comedy "The Mayor of New Town" which "The Smart Set" Company will present at the Elks Theater tonight fails to tickle the disabilities of local devotees of amusements it will be because folks in search of clean cut fun, melody and mirth have become too callous and critical. No production of its kind probably can boast of a collection of comedians, singers, dancers and capable performers such as this. Salem Tutt Whitney, the star, has a reputation from Coast to Coast as one of the greatest laugh provokers on the stage. He has been provided this season with vehicle that allows his acknowledged talents plenty of sway and in justice to him it must be said that he makes ample use of his opportunities. The SUD- porting cast is strong and includes forty people besides having the ser vices of such two sterling artists as J. Homer Tut and Ethel Mar shall. All the music is part and par eel of the entertainment, which means that there are no interpolated num- bers. It is high class show in every respect.

ALL THE EVIDENCE IN AND s HENRY CLAY BEATTIE CONFI. K y1Ss DENT OF ACQUITTAL
HIS STORY ATTACKED
Many Witnesses Tell Things That
 Beattie Denied in Efforts to Save Himself.

Chesterfield Court House, Va, Sept ! b.-Only the oratory of lawyers after 5 deliberation of jurors now remain be-
 tween Young Henry Clay Beattie Jr < and the few words which will either sssend him to the electric chair or to sssfreedom
 |REHa The taking of evidence ended this ssrnoon and tomorrow afternoon his
 0Esel, Harry Smith, and Prosecutor ssLCMis Wendenberg will argue in pri- ASvate as to how Judge Watson should aSeharge the jury. Then on Thursday,
 the addresses to the jury will be made
 and either late that night or Friday
 morning the twelve Chesterfield far
 mers will retire for their momentous balloting. verdict should be had < sometime Friday.
 KS The most natural inquiry, perhaps is: How does Young Beattie feel about the situation tonight? Positive
 reply may be had from this incident: X The boy was looking out of an ante room today at o'clock just finishing
 his midday dinner. He saw a group %Of five young girls from his home
 town, South Richmond, who were
 chatting with some of the spectators
 and correspondents during the idle
 period. He waved to them and they
 drew near his window.
 T hope pretty soon girls, we'll all
 be out on a joy ride together" he said 7 grinningly. We certainly hope so, { Henry; we wish you all the luck in
 the world returned the girls, who were all old friends of his. But their countenances were by no means so X Hopeful as his. He apparently noticed < this and said voluntarily:
 Don't worry: it's sure thing"
 n Young Beattie really thought so he was alone in his opinion. Even Z his relatives and most intimate
 friends were predicting no such thing, though most of them and incidentally s,a good many ordinary spectators at the trial-announced that they be-
 lieved disagreement of the jury { would be result of the trial They base their opinion merely upon the
 proposition that his story of high wayman having slain his wife may have created enough reasonable doubt" in the minds of several jurors n to "hang" the rest and prevent an :, nnAnimous verdict The young de- ISfeiidant, pale, but nervy as usual, took ..!the stand to resume the ordeal of ex- amination at the beginning of today's xession. He was very self confident sIin the knowledge that he had not bro- X ken down-though he had suffered kffom severe bloWs-under yesterdays attack by Prosecutor Wendenberg. SOnly the normal crowd of three or four bundred instead of yesterdays mob of s1,OOO watched him from the court Shouse or through the windows. At the SNery beginning, Judge Watson ruled skhat haste must be made with the re-

maining part of his cross examina-

maining part of his cross examina- tion.
 How is it, demanded the Prose- cutor, that at the very time you reached the spot where you say the highwayman killed your wife, the gun which your cousin, Paul Beattle, bought for you was there in the high 1 wayman's hands?"
 "I didn't know anything about any gun that Paul Beattie bought" re- torted Henry, crafuly lodging the one big issue of the case-the undisputed fact that the gun which the alleged highwayman fired was the one Paul Beattie bought This is where the State will make it's big play in the argument:
 How could an unknown highwayman have in his possession a weapon which Paul Beattie bought and says he gave to Henry? That Paul bought the gun is certain. The fact is taken even by the defense as uncontravertible al though Henry denies that Paul ever gave it to him.
 How did that gun," said Prosecutor Wendenberg, happen to be in that spot waiting to kill your wife?"
 Il cannot give any explanation, said Beattie quite placidly.
 That's all" snapped the States lawyer and the youths ordeal was over.
 The defense of Henry Clay Beattie Jr., as shown yesterday, was com plete denial of the story of his cou- sin, Paul. The latter swore that in the first place Henry met him at Short and Main street (Richmond) on the Thursday night before the murder and commissioned him to buy shotgun. Then, Paul testified, he delivered the gun to Henry on the following Satur- day. Finally that after the homicide, Henry begged him to keep quiet about the gun purchase and confessed that he had slain his wife.
 Henry yesterday in his cross-exami- nation, swore absolutely that he had not met his cousin on the Thursday night and Prosecutor Wendenberg de- clared he would produce witnesses to- day to prove that the meeting had taken place. Before he did so, he said to the jurors:
 Have you gentlemen any questions to ask of Henry Clay Beattie Jr.?' To a man, they shook their heads nega- lively.
 The defense having closed with Henry's last answer, the State put in rebuttal Harry Latham, one of Henry's own friends. He swore he had heard the defendant call up someone on the Thursday night in question and say: Meet me at Short and Main streets in fifteen minutes" That is just the message Paul Beattie swore he re- ceived. Then John McEvoy, a saloon keeper, declared that the two young men had been in his place on the night spoken of and had drank together.
 Still stronger testimony than this was given by Mrs. Paul Beattie, the

COUNTY POULTRY AS- S0fItIIOS ASkS JUDGE PHIL
 POT FOR AS APPROPRIATIONS
COMMITTEE WORKS
Many Poultry Farms Have Been Es. tabIished in This County the Past
 Year.
A committee from the Jefferson

A committee from the Jefferson County Poultry Association, compos- ed of F.. W. Phillips, George M. Wells,
 \. P. Ryland and A. G. Russell, called
 day to get that official to make an appropriation of about $100 to aid ths Association in it's endeavors to pull off another successful poultry show in this city November 2S to December 2. Judge Philpot will most likely make an appropriation, but he asked the committee to confer with District Attorney Nixon and ascertain if he had the legal authority to make such a donation
 The Association is planning a great show for this year. The members are raising, through the sale of tickets and donations, about $2000 to defray the expenses of the exhibition and hope to attract hundreds of chicken fanciers here from all over Arkansas and neighboring states. They are dis posing of tickets to local merchants and chicken men at 15 cents each, which are being distributed among out-of-town customers and others,
 who are being urged to attend the show here. Nearly a thousand dollars has already been secured in this man. ner. .-rs- .-s -----.,
 It was announced yesterday by the officials of the Poultry Association that J. Howard Sledd, associated editor of the Southern Poultry Jour- nal of Dallas, Texas, would come here on Saturday, September 23, and that night deliver an address to the mem- bers of the Poultry Association and others interested in poultry raising. Mir. Sledd is coming here at his own expense and his visit is proof of the fact that Pine Bluff is attracting much attention as a poultry and egg market
 In the past year no less than ten large chicken farms have been estab- lished in this county. Small tracts have been purhased and in one in- stance Drew County man moved his entire family here to engage in poul- try raising near this city.
 The Poultry Association Is prepar- ing to advertise the coming show in all the poultry journals over tho country. Half tones, showing maca- dam roads and poultry farms in this county, are to be featured, together with write-ups that will be provided by Secretary w. B. E. Koepler. of the Pine Bluff Board of Trade.
