NO REPORT YET FROM
HICKEY COURTMARTIAL
BELIEVED THAT THERE WILL
BE NO RECOMMENDATIONS
OF REINSTATEMENT.

Little Rock, July 19.-Though it has
been over week since the courtmar-
tial met in Fordyce to hear evidence
relative to the dismissal of Capt. L. D..
Hickey, formerly captain of the Jones'
boro company, from the Arkansas
State Guard, no report has yet been
filed with the governor. The members
of the court of inquiry are under oath
not to divulge the contents of their
report, but it is intimated there will
be no recommendation that Capt.
Hickey be reinstated.
1t is stated that the evidence at the
hearing was of such a nature that the
members Of the guard who were sup
posed to participate in race riot at
Fordyce when the guard was en- route
to Alexandria, La, to participate in
the encampment may be exonerated. A
negro who was supposed to be stabbed,
admitted that he had bottle of whis-
key in his pocket, and when he was
knocked down, this was broken ana
piece of the glass might have cut him.
Other negroes gave conflicting testi-
mony, differing much from that told
by them at the time of the first hear
ing. Some evidence was given which
gave some reason for the belief that
town boys, as much as soldiers, were
interested in the fracas.
Hickey is censured for his language
addressed to the officials who sought to
arrest his company. He also took his
company to church, heavily armed
with bayonets on their guns, which is
in strict violation of the rules of the
United States army.

defendant, have repudiated their for
mer stories. which -,narily convicted
their father, and would testify in his
favor if second trial was held. The
children told the jury that they were
tied in an oil-soaked bed. The girl
said when she discovered the fire she
saw her father leave their bedroom
and lock the door. They were forced
to wait, they said, until the fire burn

would battle his face with the Cuticura Soap
and apply the Cuticura Ointment, he would
be much better. He would wake up in the
nights and cry with his face and we would
put on some Of the Cuticura Ointment and

Up in Washington. says the Macon

has poured some irritating ointment

drastic and painful treatment Is nee

pie proof that they want to yield 10
the requirements of the interests, but
they are afraid to do IT, The more
they insist that Wilson Is using un-
due authority in pushing the lobby
probe the more convincing Their atti-
tude will be to the public that deep
down in their hearts they favor the
interests the Lobby represents in

sition is impregnaible, both because 1t
Is right and because he is sustained
in 1t by the great masses OF the peo-
pie who elected him to fight their
battle of tariff reform ust as he is
now fighting II.
The retalitory steps taken against
President Wilson by senators who re-
sent the presidents bold stand
against the lobby are having the eff
feet of aiding in tn investigation in
ctead of lettering II as was intended,
as what he has said has drawn the

president that the time has come
when the lobby should be driven
from the national capitol and con-
gress should be left to render that
service the representatives and sena-
tors were elected to render.
The dispatches from Washington
indicate that President Wilson is
master OF the situation, and that the
policy followed by Senator Townsend
in his testimony on the lobby, in
which he charges the president with
being lobbyist is proving to be
veritable boomerang to those protec-
tionists senators who are standing
out against tariff revision.
