 OF MISS|SS|PP|ANS
Constable's Claim for Re- ward for Alleged Murder
 CTS Is Recognized.
Constable Clint Green has returned

Constable Clint Green has returned from Greenville, Miss, where he spent several days protecting his in terests and those of Deputy Con- stable Jim Reidinger, in the matter of the reward of $7O0 offered there for the capture of two young white men, who were wanred for assas- sinating their uncle near that place
 It will be remembered that the two officers captured the two men while the fugitives were hauling slaves to loQ al mill. taking them into GUS tody within a few hours after being informed that they were wanted. The men have been tried and each was sentenced to life imprisonment in the Mississippi penitentiary.
 The visit of Mir. Green to Missis- sippi was necessitated by the action of an officer in a north Louisiana parish, who made claim to the reward because he "tipped' the Mississippi officers to the fact that the men had come to Pine Bluff. Constable Green had no difficulty in demonstratin 5 to the authorities at Greenville that the Mississippi officers had spent several days here in vain effort to capture the men. before they asked the assistance of the lodal constable, who then quickly located the men. The county judge assured Constable Green that the reward would be pald to him and Deputy Constable Reidin- ger.

Miss Madeline Doty Tells Women's Peace Party
 People Desire Peace.
NATIONS AT WAR
 SUPPRESS TRUTH
Germans Discuss Peace. but Entente Nations Suppress Public DiscuSSiOn. Miss Jane AddamS is Reelected
 Chairman of Peace Party.

Washington, Dec. 9.-Recent per- sonal investigation of conditions in England, France and Germany reveal ed that the mass of the people in at! of those countries are anxious for peace, Miss Madeline Doty of New York told the annual meeting of the Women's Peace Party tonight
 The speaker said the lack of accur- ate news in one group of belligerent countries, regarding the conditions in the other groups, is mainly respon- sible for the continuation of hostilities. Miss Doty told of attending mass meetings in Germany, where peace prospects were freely discussed by civilians and soldiers. Her investiga- tion into conditions in England and France, she asserted, disclosed that public peace discussion was not per mited.
 Among the resolutions adopted by the peace party today, was one ex- pressing disapproval of the "evils of secret diplomacy" Previously speak CTS had assailed the newspaper cen sorship recently established by the American navy at Santa Domingo. Other resolutions adopted provided that the chief efforts of the party should be directed against any form of universal compulsory military ser- vice, condemned military training in schools, favored repeal of the draft provisions in the army re-organiza- tion bill, urged the appointment of commissioners representing the Unit ed States and China, to amicably set the disputes, and endorsed the pro-, posed federal amendment for woman suffrage. The principle that foreign investments are made at the risk o1' the investors, without claim to the pro- lection of the United States, was set forth in the resolutions, and they sug- gested the calling in the near future of third Hague conference.
 Miss Jane Addams of Chicago was reelected chairman of the party. Oth- CT officers chosen included assistant Chairman and secretary, Mrs. William I. Thomas of Chicago; honorary chair man, Mrs. Ella Flagg Young of Chi cago; treasurer, Mrs. Sophonisba P. Breckenridge of Chicago.

Associated Press Summary)

The importance of the successes of the Teutonic allies armies on the bat i tlefields in the vicinity of Bucharest is emphasized by the announcement that since December 1 the Rumanians have lost in prisoners more than TO- 900 men, 1S4 cannon, l20 machine guns, and the losses in dead and woun- ded are said to be proportionate to the number of prisoners The booty talk en by the Teutonic armies is report ed as "incalcuable."
 The ultimate fate of the Rumanian armies still in doubt, but they con- tinue to retreat before the Teutonic allies, whose pursuit is announced as "progressing as planned"
 The Russians have again launched strong attacks on the upper Molda- vian and Transylvanian frontiers, but the majority of them are reported to have failed, with losses. Some ground, however, was gained north of Dorna- Watra, and Russian troops dislodged hostile forces from heights in the |Pu- tna valley region, taking some pris- oners and machine guns.
 The battle south of Jablonitza, in the wooded Carpathians, has ceased and the Russians have retired to their entrenchments.
 1 In consequence of the retreat east ward of the Rumanians, Russian troops on the left flank have been con- pelled also to retire.

In contrast with the slow pace of the cars used by the British, the German "tanks" run at speed of 25 miles an hour.
