SEN.s;JONEs MAKES
SERIOUS CHARGES
(By Associated Press. }

Washington, March IS. 1t was
charged in the Senate today by Sen
ator Jones of Washington that the
repeal of the Panama tolls exemp-
tion law was the price the United
States was to pay for non-interfer
ence of other powers in Mexico.
Senator Jones declared that the
presidents decision to ask the re-,
peal of the exemption act resulted
from conference with Sir Lionel
Garden, British minister to Mexico.
He charged that the agreement to
repeal the tolls act was one condi-
tion in the negotiations to preserve
the Monroe Doctrine now imperiled
in Mexico, and said it was reported
that another condition was that
England was to receive reparation
for losses on Confederate bonds dur
ing the civil war, the burden of this
reparation to fall on the Southern
States. He demanded that the pres
ident furnish the Senate with full
particulars of the tolls controversy

BAPTIST WITNESS 70
UNDERGO A CHANGE

Rev. j. E. Trice, superintendent
of the Baptist Orphanage at Area
dia, is in Lakeland today arranging
the final details for the removal OF
the Baptist Witness to Arcadia, a
major interest in the paper having
been bought by Mr.. Trice and MI :.
David II. Scott banker and cap
italist of Arcadia. These gentle
men have also purchased an inter
est in the Arcadia Enterprise and
will make the necessary additions
to that plant to enable the Witness
to be issued from ,he Office of the
Enterprise.
Rev. w. d. NoWlin, who has SO
ably edited the paper for the past
twenty months or more, will retain
an interest in the publication and
will continue as editor. This, we
are happy to state, will not necessi-
tate his removal from Lakeland.
Mr.. Nowlin has been very sue,
cessful as editor of the Witness and
during his connection with 1t the
subscription list has almost doubled,
and it now has approximately an is
sue of six thousand copies. The
work of editing and managing the
paper has proven too heavy for him,
however, especially as Mr.. d. c..
Nowlin wished to be relieved of the
business management, and the sale
of the property is made with view
to placing the publication upon a
more substantial and practical basis
and at the same time relieving him
of "a portion of the arduous duties
connected with the publication. I'm
der new and able business manage
ment, with ample capital, issued
from it's own plant, and with Mr..
Nowlin in better position than ever
to make it scintillatc odtorially
the Witness has now the most prom
ising outlook in its career.
The relations between this office
where the Witness has been printed
and the editor and management OF
that paper, have been most cordial
and pleasant.
The paper will continue to be
printed here for the present until
the necessary equipment has been
installed and other arrangements
made for issuing the publication at
Arcadia.

NEAR ATTEMPT AT
EXPRESS ROBBERY

A bold attempt at express robbery
was perpetrated in this city yester-
day morning, when Express Mes
senger Satchar, on the G.. II. & N.
Ry. arrived in Arcadia about 10
o'clock
AS told by the wagon delivery
boy, Mr.. Parker, Satchar presented
his receipt book for his signature
for express to be put off at this
place, and when Parker checked up
he found two PACKAGES which he
signed for, short. He demanded
them which was refused by Satchar.
Parker jumped into the express car
and forced Satchar to open the safe
and deliver them, which was done
as the train was moving of. In the
hurry of Parker leaving the moving
train he dropped one Of the pack
agegs containing $500 worth Of dia-
monds and jewelry billed to Mr..
Rosin of this city, and which
Satchar refused to throw off to him.
The package was taken On down the
road by Satchar and broken open.
Probably his nerve failing him, he
returned the package on his return
trip. Wires were sent to Lakeland
for the arrest of Satchar, which was
probably done upon his arrival in
the above city.
This is the first express robbery
in this section in many years, and
was one of the boldest attempts
known of Arcadia News.
