Paris, Wednesday, April 23.-It is
understood that France and Great
Britain, after consultation with
President Wilson will make another
effort TO draw from the Italians a
further declaration as to the situa-
ton which has arisen, and the hope
is still entertained in conference
circles that in spite of Premier Or
lando's decision to leave Paris, a way
may be found at the last moment to
terminate to the satisfaction of all
parties the admittedly grave incl
dent which arose to-day.

TIGERS HUNG 32 TO il SCORE ON
 LOCALS HERE
Game Was Fast and Had
 Many Features.

Coach Pipkin brought his team of Tigers down from Little Rock yester- day, and last night they hung a\32 to il defeat on the locals. Though the score was high. and seems one sided, it is not true indication of the fierce ness of the game. The defeat of the locals is attributed to poor condition, though this is not intended in anywise to detract from the credit due the Lit tie Rock team. It was an excellent organization, and in the words of Coach Bassett, "the better team won."
 "However. I am not discouraged" he continued. The defeat last night was the kind of bracer we needed, and when the tournament comes off, we will make a strong bid for the championship. My team is new," he stated further. "and they were in poor condition, and really could not stand the gaff of hard game"
 The Little Rock organization show ed up we'll in every department of the game. They had little trouble in To- eating the basket when they had a shot. and their floor work was more than clever. Bratton, for Little Rock shot 7 field goals.
 First Half Good.
 Pine Bluff played a remarkable game the first half. and the score at the end of that session was but 9 to 8 in Little Rocks favor. At the begin ming of the second half. the Tigers took the Initiative, and piled up the large score before the locals could stop the scoring.
 There was a record crowd at this game, and there was more enthusiasm than has been shown in some time. After the game, the two teams were rendered lunch at the cafeteria by the high school girls. Following this they attended dance given bv Miss Mona Keys at her home 1918 West 18th. Hard Training Next Week.
 Coach Bassett stated last night that he intended to devote most of next week to conditioning the quintett. The shooting of the locals was very good, and the floor work was pass able, but the team lacked stamnia to stand the strain of hard game. The game last night was not free from roughness, but that did not predom- mate.

AMERICANS FORCED
 BY VILLA TO SEE Ex-MAYOR HANGED
Then Looted a Number of : Stores and Houses.

Juarez, Mexico, Jan. 24.-American mining men were lined up and forced by Francisco Villa to witness the hanging of Antonio Cabello, former mayor of Santa Eulalia, Chihuahua, Wednesday morning when Villa occu- pied the mining town 16 miles from Chihuahua City, footed the safes of the mining companies, robbed the stores and houses of Americans and departed after killing four federal sol- diers and capturing the remaining 31.
 Te details of the raid were brought here tonight by passengers on. the train from the state capital. Villo had 300 men, they said, and took $40) from the mining camp offices. The hanging of the ex-mayor was the re- suit of grudge Villa held against him since they were partners in the cattle business. After forcing them to witness the hanging, and telling them they must increase the wages of the Mexican miners, Villa permitted all of the Americans to go to Chihua- hua City.

BLIND BOOTLEGGfR COULDN'T GET BACK

Suspicious Bumps Gave Clue ]: to Precious Booty.

Shelby Macey, a blind negro, lays claim to be the worst "outer luck guy who ever did something and got away with it--almost. Shelby lives at 613 West ~. Eighth street, Little off his beat. Being blind, he couldn't see everything in it's true perspective, and thus it came to pass that Shelby came to grief
 Several days ago Shelly went down into the oasis of Louisiana, and yes~ terday he started back to his habi- tat with his clothes full of liquor, and if Pine Bluff hadn't been in the way, Shelby would be in Little Rock today with flagons of Louisiana flicker" for sale. But the train stopped in Pine Bluff, and that was chapter two in Shelby's sad career.
 Bumps of Suspicion.
 Deputy U. s. Marshal Al Reed was at the station, and various bumps and Jumps formed suspicious contours on Shelby's anatomy The marshal slipped up on Shelby's blind side, and right before his very eyes, so to speak, investigated those lnmps and bumps. Further investigation proved the marshal's suspicious to be cor rect.
 The negro was detained and search- ed. From various pockets in Shell 'by's sartar resartus. the marshal drew forth 12 pints of liquor.
 Shelby alleged that he was inno- cent, stating he had never even seen the stuff which was taken from his person. The marshal admitted the but arrested the allegator.
