MILITIA ON GUARD
AT MURDER TRIAL
Edgar Morris, Arraigned on Two
Charges Of Murder, Threatens Rope
tition Of ~ HiilsvlIe Affair" Of Seven
Years Ago.

Standardsviiie. Va, April 21.-State
troops were on guard today when the
circuit court convened to take up the
case of Edgar Morris, son OF a Greene
county deputy sheriff. against whom
there are two charges of murder. and
who is said to have threatened a repe-
tition of the "Hillsville affair of seven
years ago when the Allen clan of
mnuntaiaeers 'shot up" the Carroll
county court.
Morris was arrested late in Decem-
Der on a charge of killing another man
at a dance. He was bailed by his
father. On March 29 he was arrested
and arraigned in Magistrate Sullivan's
court and fined $40 for creating trouble
at church social. AS the sentence
was pronounced Morris shot and killed
the mag gistrate and escaped to the
mountains in an automobile which he
commandeered.
Reports were that Morris had
planned to come to court today and
give himself up so his bond on which
his father is security would not be for
feited; but a band of his friends from
the mountains were to swoop down as
did the Aliens and free him. The au-
thorities appealed to Governor Davis
and the Albermarle rifles of Charlotts-
vile were ordered by the governor to
be on hand during the session cf the
court to afford protection. The militia,
three officers and fifty-three men, ar
rived last night.

ALL WOMEN TO VOTE IN 1sao7
Senator Curtis, After Tour, Says Con-
oress is Sure to Pass Amendment,

Washington, April 2l.-Full suffrage
for all American women for the ls2o
elections IL foreshadowed in state
ment authorized by Senator Charles
Curtis of Kansas, the republican whip.
Senator Curtis said that both houses or
congress Will pass the amendment as
soon as they reconvene.
Following this announcement SUI
frage leaders said the moment the suf-
frage amendment Is passed they VII!
begin a drive for its ratification by
all the legislatures which may then be
In session and will urge the calling OF
special sessions In other states that
the amendment may be quickly ra'i-
fed. This would insure tha voting by
women in all states of the union in the
next presidential contest.
Senator Curtis made>.his statement
after an extensive tour. which con-,
vinced him there is no reason TO doubt
the amendments will pass. He sad:
Il am confident that the suffrage
two thirds vote in the senate and house
as soon as the session begins. l do not
think. there is a shadow of doubt as
to it's immediate passage
Senator Johnson of California will
be chairman OF the woman suffrage
committee in the Senate. and Repre-
sentative Mann Of Illinois. chairman OF
the House committee. Both are ardent
suffragists and have promised to bring
the resolution before their respective
committees Immediately upon the
organization of Congress.
In the event the amendment should
pass in the first few weeks of the SEES
sion there is a possibility that ratiti-
cation may be obtained by several
legislatures which will then be in ses-
sion. Among these will be the states
of Connecticut Illinois, New York,
Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Wisconsin.
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island. Nebraska,
Missouri. Minnesota. Ohio and Mass
achuSetts.
Most OF these can be counted upon
to ratify Immediately. In great many
Of the remaining states all that Is
necessary Is to have the legislature
convened, and this may be dong by
the calling OF extra sessions.

Japan Fssls Humiliatsd.


Toxic. April 19.-In an editorial COM
menting on the failure of the racial
quality clause to secure place in the
covenant Of the league Of nations, the
Toxic Times declares the national dis
appointment of Japan verges on dis
affection and affords opportunity for
sensationalists to stir up anti-white
prejudices.
Representative Japanese regard the
Paris decision as snub and humilia-
ton. the newspaper says. 1t continues:
. "The refusal of the august congress
Of white peoples to accept the principle
Of equality OF non-white probably will
erect perpetual barrier to the har-
::c.:ous communicating OF co-raccs
toward which it was believed the world
was tended. It can only tend to ac-
centuate racial tendencies which will
far from realize President Wilson's
plan for world peace"
The Times compares Japans position
to that of a negro preacher asked to-
preach in church because Of his ora
torical powers but who. Is not consid-
cred the equal OF his white congrega-
ton.
1T is well for Japan to remember
this point" the newspaper adds. "The
only way OF sustaining Japans pres
tige must be sought in preparedness to
cope with international situations as
they develop"

Premiers Lloyd George, Clcmenceau
and Orlando attending.
The German reply TO the ultimstum
of the. council OF four that IL will not
receive any German delegation not
fully empowered To conduct and nego-
tiate peace is awaited anxiously in
peace conference circles, The next
steps toward peace depend on the
German reply.
See Evidence OF Bad Faith.
This mornings newspapers see In
sending "couriers" instead
OF delegates OF proper standing To Yer
sailles nothing but evidence Of bad
faith and a transparent maneuver to
gain time. The Echo de Paris says;
The allied and associated govern
ments are determined not to accept
personages and Germany
will be Immediately notified that she
must send delegates equipped with full
powers to conclude peace. Upon their
arrival at Versailles the first step will
be to demand from them EVIDENCE that
they hold those powers"
The Gaulois, indignant AT what II
describes as the "impertinence OF Ger
many's coup dc theatre" which 1t re-
CARDS as a refusal to sign the treaty,
says: The next word will he with
Marshal Foch."
Germany Wasting Time.
A statement issued last evening by
the Havas news bureau. a semi official
agency, says that surprise has been
over the fact that Germany
did not select more important men for
her peace delegation than DR.. Haniel
Won Hainhausen, Herr Won Keller Err
nest Schmidt, Herr Reimker and Herr
Wolfords. and says that according to
the German note they will have power
only to receive the text Of the terms
and not 70 sign the treaty.
It is declared, the statement adds.
that "in these circumstances the send
ing of these delegates to Versailles
would be useless"
Fears are felt in some quarters that
this unexpected development may
affect the program for the meeting
planned for Friday at Versailles. II
the German government in reply to the
of the council raises con-
troversy regarding the status of their
delegates and the procedure TO be fol-
lowed it Is conceivable that the arrival
of their delegates at Versailles may be
postponed.

fBy the Associated Press. ]

Berlin, April 19.-Germany's cabinet
devoted less than half an hour to the
formulation of its answer to the en-
tente invitation to Versailles for the
purpose of receiving draft of the
peace terms.
feeling of gloom prevails in official
circles tonight and Associated Press Is
told there are no illusions as to obtain
ing, any mitigation in the dictatorial
peace availing Germany.
The procedure of the council of four
came as a surprise, Notwithstanding
the fact that the news of the past
week foreshadowed it, and it is in
terpreted in cabinet circles and at the
foreign office as final proof that the
entente is disinclined forthwith TO en-
ter into negotiations based on Presi
dent Wilson's fourteen points" and
that the terms awaiting Germany are
cut and dried.
The German emissaries will merely
have instructions to carry the peace
document back to Berlin. The ques-
ton whether the present government
will assume the.responsibility of ac-
cepting or rejecting the terms or
whether it will present them for a ma
tional referendum, is matter Of con-
lecture.
Official opinion, so far as adduced
tonight, was opposed to the declaration
of referendum and in favor of per-
emptory declination OF peace terms
based on any other proposition than
Mr. Wilson'S platform, 'as the present
temper of the German workingmen is
anti-capitalisticl and anti-imperialistic
and the bourgeoise is in full accord
with the proletariat. The present gov
ernment, it has been learned, is not
flirting with the idea of a plebiscite, as
II would much rather negotiate peace
and set the country at work. But it is
kalso conscious that peace settlement
in which Germany had not had voice
would precipitate q storm Of national
resentment which no cabinet could
weather.
The communication from the entente
powers was received here last Friday
and the German answer was wired this
afternoon. Philip Scheidemann. the
chancellor, called in representatives OF
the German press at o'clock this
evening and informed them of the
governments action.
The public will receive it's first. in
formation as to events on Easter
morning.
