OKLAHOMA REVOLT
PRACTICALLY ENDED

Oklahoma City, Okla, Aug. S.
Isolated, bands of resisters to the
selective draft tonight still were re-

southern Oklahoma, but federal au
thorities EXPRESSED the opinion that
hes haG the uprising effectively
quelled, so far as organized resistance
was concerned.
Filing of charges of rebellion
against leaders of the rioters, of whom
more than 200 are held in the state
penitentiary and county Jail at Nc
Alester, has dampened the ardor of
the lesser lights under arrest, and of.
ficlals reported them anxious to tell
all they knew of the uprising Pre-
liminary hearings have been postpon-
ed while this testimony is being OBJ
tained
The latest point from which rioters
were reported was at Scipio north of
McAlester. where large body of
malcontents, heavily armed, were said
to defy the officers to take them be-
fore the draft examining board.
Posses have been sent from McAlester
with, orders to bring them in. Rumors
Of disaffection in Payne county wers
discounted tonight by reassuring re-
ports from Stillwell, the county seat.
