Rumors of Shady Condition Led to

itors viii Be Paid in Full.
Capital Wiped Out.

Dyersbur.-The Bank of Newbern,
this county, closed it's doors. Ru-
mors that the bank was shaky had
been current for several weeks and
some large depositors of the bank had
withdrawn their accounts.
Personal loans amounting to $1,000
to Cashier O. Shumate were the pri-
mary cause of the banks failure. AS.
sistance was offered by the Dyersburg
banks, but the directors, learning the
true state of affairs of the institution,
ordered the doors closed. The New
bern bank was established in 1883
and has had a successful career, and
until this year was considered one of
the strongest banks in this section.
A hasty examination of the assets of
the bank indicate that depositors will
be paid in full, but that the entire cap
ital will be wiped out
Representatives of the Dyersburg
banks motored to Newsbern with $780,
900 in cash to offer the Merchants G.
Garmers Bank, the only other bank In
Newbern. The officials of this bank
declined the offer, stating that they
had sufficient funds to take care of
any possible rum that the excitement
might cause. A move is on foot to
reorganize the bank as soon as its af-
fairs can be wound up.

Paris.-Bloodhoun were called
from Paris to go to Mckenzie to trail
would-be postoffice robbers, who ope-
rated between Paris and Mckenzie.
1t seems that the burglars entered
the store and postoffice at Houton, a
little town few miles south of Paris
on the Louisville Nashville Railroad.
Nothing was missed there except an
ak. This tool they took with them to
Henry, about four miles further south,
in this county and also ON the Louis
vile & Nashville. Here they entered
the postoffice building. The post
master, S. c. Cradle, stated over the
long distance telephone that he could
miss nothing, but his safe was badly
damaged, the combination on it be-
ing almost torn away, rendering it i'm
possible to enter the safe. From there
they went to Mckenzie and entered
the postoffice, but according to long
distance telephone message received
here nothing but two small packages
were missed. The Paris hounds trail
ed and as result two negroes were
arrested, but were released, as there
is no material evidence against them.

Flying Lumber Hits Youths on Fast
Freight.
Selmer. - Haynie Combs, Will
PUNK and Oscar Gage, of Bethel
Springs, were the objects of very
peculiar and dangerous accident at
McNairy, IL miles north of Selmer on
the Mobile & Ohio railroad. They
were riding on fast freight in box
car behind a carload of lumber. The
lumber was loosened from its fasten-
ings and was thrown promiscuously,
hurting badly all the boys. who had
their heads out of the car door. Combs
is in the hospital at Jackson, suffer
ing from severe cuts and bruises on
the head. PUNK was cut on the fore
head and Gage escaped with minor in
juries. It is said that but for the fact
that the car doors were open the boys
would have been killed. Several
heavy timbers we're thrown against
the open doors, which served as a
protection. The train crew knew
nothing OF the accident and did not
stop the train until it reached jack

REBELS COME INTO FOLD
viii Not Be Bound to Accept Finding,
But VIII Give Their Side of Con-
troversy to Mediators.


Washington.-The Constitutionalists
are preparing to send representative
to Niagara Falls to confer with the
South American mediators who are en-.
deavoring to settle the Mexican prob
lem. This will be done with the dis
tinct understanding that the represen.
tative Is to give information as to Gen.
Carranza's purposes, without commit
ting the Constitutionalists to any plan.
for the pacification of Mexico that the
mediators may determine upon.
Jose Vasconcelos, now at Montreal
on a financial mission for Gen. Car.
rama, is understood to be the man
chosen to go to Niagara Falls. Men In
close touch with the Constitutionalists
said that he would arrive there soon.
The question of taking this step has
been the subject of several informal
conferences between Constitutionalist
representatives and representatives of
the Washington administration recent
ly, and 1t is understood that Gen. Car
rama has given his consent.
1t was reported on apparently relia-
BILE authority that another invitation
may be sent to Carranza by the me-
diators to take formal part in the me-
diation proceedings. For the present,
at least, however, 1t Is declared the
Constituencies report merely would
give the mediators information with.
out committing the leaders to any
agreement.

Every Aspect Of Mexican Situation
Laid Before Delegates-May Solve
Land Problem.
Niagara Falls, N. Y.-The opposing
delegates at the Mexican-American
peace conference clearly are coming
into closer accord on the vexed land
problem. Delegates representing both
sides have ground. one from the view
that the problem was for internal So
luton and not the subject of media
ton, the other that the thing must be
settled here and now in conformity
with the views of the Washington gov.
eminent. For some time the diplo-
matte tribunal despaired of finding a
common meeting place, but finally
both sides have come to see that II
the mediation is to be success this
question must be viewed in a spirit
of Cancellation.
The strong declaration of President
Wilson on the subject, published in an
interview as the mediation conference
was about to assemble, aroused good
deal Of feeling and threatened dis
astrous outcome of the whole effort at
peace.
The Mexican delegates firmly de-
clared that 1t was untrue that the
feudal system of Mexico was the sim
gle, or, indeed, the chief cause of the
recurring revolutions. They said that
personal ambition had played much
more important part. They insisted
that in the existing condition of Mex
leo 1t was idle to talk of wholesale
subdivision of estates for the benefit
of an ignorant and .improvident class,
lacking both energy and thrift to profit

! Niagara Falls, ont.-Unless Presi-

mand for the unconditional elimina-
ton of Huerta as provisional presi
dent Of Mexico, the efforts Of the
Hosth American mediators will avail
hothing and the peace conference will

Two courses are open ~ the United
States government:
I Eirst-The American ENJOYS, Jus

be authorized to make certain con-
oessions which will enable Huerta to
withdraw with the understanding that
he win not be barred from becoming
p candidate for Inc presidency and
that In the event of his election he
will be promptly recognized by the
United States.
Z, Second - President Wilson may
withdraw his delegates from the con-
ference and use the armed forces of
The United States in the pacification
OF Mexico.
Just how Huerta Is to be eliminated
is the vital point upon which the
American and Mexican delegates seem
to be deadlocked. Other questions
have been discussed by the mediators
and the delegates, including the plan
OF restoring the land to the poor, with
the object of ending peonage In Mex
leo. the nature and personnel of the
provisional government, the Tampico
incident and the landing of American
troops in Vera Cruz, but no positive
assurance Of the success of the con-
ference can be given until some final
decision has been reached as to the
elimination Of Huerta.

Parents Fooled.
mphis.--Ciinging to the rugraii
of an automobile with his left hand,
Magistrate Charles Gallina lifted his
right hand as the car sped down the
State Line road between Collierville
and Memphis and pronounced the
words that made Miss Donna B. Pet.
tigrew, 16, the wife of Roy J. Roach,
%. The marriage followed two un.
successful attempts to elope, and was
the elimination Of a romance that
started several years ago.
The ceremony was said almost with.
in the shadows of the High school at
Collierville, where few moments
before the bride had laid aside her
books and had gone quietly to the
road in front to await the arrival of
Roach and the magistrate.
No sooner was she in the car be-
side Roach than an auto was seen
approaching. Remembering pre-
vious experience in which speeding
machine frustrated his plans, Roach
interrupted the ceremony to give in
structions to the chauffeur and the
marriage car leaped ahead.
II never want to ride that fast
again." declared Magistrate Gallina
when he was back safe in his office.
The bride is the daughter of Mrs.
R. L. Pettigrew, who objected to the
wedding because of her daughters age.
Mrs. Pettigrew. believing that Roach
and her daughter had abandoned their
determination to elope, came to Mem
phis on shopping tour Roach, learn
ing that she was in the city, tele-
phoned Miss Pettigrew, obtained a
marriage license, rented an automo-
bile and picked up Magistrate Gal
lima. Miss Pettigrew met him in
front Of the school by appointment
She did not wear hat, and was
gowned in simple school frock.
Upon their arrival in Memphis,
Roach and his bride went to the home
of Ezra Laughter, by whom Roach. is
employed. He is the son of James
Roach, of Collierville, and he and Miss
Pettigrew have been sweethearts foI
years.
