GOOD RESULTS
FROM HEARING
BRINGS ABOUT BETTER UNDER
STANDING BETWEEN LAW-MAK-
ERs AND BUSINESS MEN.

T. l.. O'Donnell, of Sanford, who
was one of the lumber manufacturers
that appeared before the Senate COM
mittee at Jackson Monday for the pur-
pose of discussing the proposed Work
mans Compensation Act, Is in the
city today.
Mr.. O'Donnell states that the hear
ing on the Potter bill was declared to
be one of the most harmonious ever
had before legislative committee.
He states that in addition to the sat
isfactory result of securing a with
drawal of the Potter bill to await fu-
ture consideration of less drastic
law, the manufacturers and other bust
ness men were put in a much friendlieI
attitude to the average legislator. The
proceedings before the COMMITTEES
says Mr.. O'Donnell, were most inter
esting, and 1t was manifestly the de
sire of Senator Potter and his as
sociates on the committee to get a
the real facts, with the idea Of press
ing for adoption only such Legislation
as is for the greatest good to thu
greatest number.
THE result of the hearing will,
am sure, serve to make the busines
men of the state less disposed to cor
denim the motives of the legislato
before giving him a chance to sho,
whether his motives are sincere O
not" said Mr.. O'Donnell.
aside from the immediate result
of the hearing. which brought bus
ness men, laboring men and law-mal
ers into close contact. all with a
honest, sincere desire to do right. Nj
/, O'Donnell believes 1t will serve I
bring about better understanding i
the future and ultimately result in
much better class Of laws.

disgust, returned to Opelousas, in
company with Henry e. Estorage, Of
that city, who had been commissioned
by Governor Hall, of Louisiana, to act
as special escort for Sheriff Swords
The Opelousas sheriff stated that he
will return here the last of the week,
when it is expected that all technical

Sheriff Hathorn, after communicat-
ing with the clerk of the Mississippi
Supreme Court, announced that 1t was
his duty under the law to hold Walters

court in the case had been received.
The supreme court decided the case

This would not be until Tuesday noon.
Walters had expressed willingness

raise no objection to Walters being

Sheriff Hathorn declared: "The pris

Jackson, Miss, Jan. 27.-Stoutly de-

tered into by Lieut.. Gov. Theo. G.. Bill
bo, former chairman c. G. Smith, Of

w. A. Montgomery, a prison trustee,
to relieve Dr. Gathings of his duties
and give the position to him, Capt. c.
H. Neyland, former farm superin-
tendent, appeared before the joint
house and senate penitentiary commit
tee that is probing reports of Ill treat
ment of convicts, late yesterday after
noon.
The testimony of Capt. Neyland
and that Of DR.. L. B. Neal, of the Oak
ley farm, were the sensations of the
hearing. DIR. Neal emphatically de-
clared that DR.. Gathings knew that
prisoners were using as sleeping
quarters the "cage,' wooden building,
that was destroyed by fire last sum-
mer, and in which 35 negro convicts
were burned to death. DR.. Gathings
had made statements that the sergeant
Stanley Byrd, had transferred the con
victs from a crowded cage to the
abandoned building where hay, forage
and molasses were stored, without or
ders from him or his knowledge, and
that he did not know that convicts
were using the place at night until the
fire occurred.
DR.. Neal flatly contradicts DR.. Gath
ings in this particular. He told the
committee that upon one occasion be
fore the fire he went with DR.. Gath
ings to the second story of the build
ing, and both talked with the Negro
who was i'll. He said that the beds o
the convicts were seen by DR.. Gath
ings, and he must have known from
that that the prisoners were sleeping
in the structure.

, Montgomery was called as witness

MATTER DISCUSSED AT
CONFERENCE LAST NIGHT
President and Members of Senate For.
eisn Relations Committee Confer for
Three Hours ar White Householder
Diplomatic Problems Considered.
(By Associated PreSs.)

Washington, Jan. 27.-That Presi-
dent Wilson is opposed to the exemp-
tion of American coastwise ships
from Panama Canal tolls was assert
ed today by those who know what took
place at the conference last night be-
tween the President and the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee. 1t was
stated that the President believes such
spirit of the Hay-Paucefort treaty.
President Wilson conferred for three
hours last night with the Senate For
eign Relations Committee. The entire
committee, Republicans and Democrats
with the exception Of Senator Clark,
discussed foreign affairs.
For the first time during the admin
istration, the President broached the
subject of the Panama canal tolls. The
unratified arbitration treaties and the
proposed Bryan peace treaties as we'll
as the Mexican situation and Japanese
alien land treaty laws were among the
subjects discussed. 1t was the first
conference of its kind converting so
broad a field that Mr.. Wilson has held,
his previous meeting with the Foreign
Relations Committee being devoted
chiefly to Mexican affairs.
When the conference was over all
the senators agreed to maintain secre.
cy leaving to the President to discuss
what had taken place. .-
The President explained to waiting
correspondents that he earnestly had
urged the ratification of general arbi
tration treaties proposed for renewal
16 in number. He said the language
of none Of them would be changed and
expressed confidence that they would
be ratified.
The President also outlined his at
titude on the Panama canal tolls ques
ton. Asked what 1t was, he said he
thought 1t was generally understood
but declined to discuss his views al
this time. The fact that, when the
treaty with Great Britain was last con
sidered by the Senate an exception tc
1t on the ground that 1t might force
the arbitration of the free tolls fol
! American coastwise vessels led to the
belief that the President first desired
to see the general arbitration treaty
with Great Britain ratified and he hop
ed through the passage of the Adam
son resolution now pending the opera
ton OF the free tolls provision woult
be suspended for two years while dip
lomatic correspondence on the sub
ject was continued. The President ha
never publicly outlined his ideas ol
the tolls question.
The Senators had asked him man
questions, the President reported an
he said he had answered as many Q
them as possible but unfortunatel
could not give them all the details o
account Of the unavoidable absence q

i, The President said the senators asl
ed him great deal about Mexico. b.

, about the condition Of affairs in Me,
leo as he had, the President said n
