FIVE MORE FOUND
 GUILTY OF MURDER
Makes Total of Eleven Who Automatically Receive Death Penalty-Organized Insurrec- tiOn.

Helena, Ark, Nov. 4.-Quick dis posal of cases of negroes facing charges in connection with the upris- ing in the southern part of Phillips county the first part of October con- | tinued in circuit court here today, five being convicted on this charge which automatically carries the death pen alty, since the trials began yesterday, to eleven.
 Testimony in the three cases in- volving the five negroes tried today brought out that members of the Hodges" of the Progressive Farmers and Household Union of America" were threatened with death unless they carried out the orders of their leaders. Negroes placed on the stand, admitting they were members of the union, declared the disturbances re- suited from orders of the union chiefs. They also asserted the leaders had instructed them to come armed to all meetings.
 The negroes convicted today were Ali Banks, Jr., and John Martin, charged jointly with the murder of w. A. Adkins, railroad special agent, when a small sheriff's posse of which he was member was fired upon from church the night of September 30; Joe Fox and Albert Giles, charged with the murder of James Tappan, of Helena, member of possee sent to the section the following morning, and Will Wordlow, charged individu- ally with the murder of Adkins.
 John E. Miller, prosecuting attor- ney, declared the testimony had shown that the trouble was not race riot, but organized insurrection," with lit tie race feeling displayed. He de- clared it had been shown that the union for several months had been planning an uprising set for the night of October 6 unless white planters agreed to the negroes demands as to prices to be paid them for cotton on which they had worked, and that eighteen or twenty planters had been smarked for assassination" should they refuse. He declared precipitation of the trouble the night of September 30 by the murder of Adkins was an accident.

.NO SIGN OF BREAK IN MINERS STRIKE
estimates Vary as to the Time IInion Mines Will Remain Closed - Miners Are Law Abiding.

washington, Nov. 4.-Despite the .u;s;t of hopefulness in official quar- .sss that the end of the coal strike mos near, spokesmen here for miners and operators declared tonight the country was in for protracted in- dustrial struggle in the bituminous field
 Labor leaders estimated that all ,r;on mines would remain closed at loast four weeks. Other estimates cut that time in half, but officials, al- tbouph without word of direct egort to bring the two sides together, held firmly to the view that the strike would not run that long. -
 There was no confidential reports from department of justice agents in the fields, and reports to Washington beaduuarters of the operators an nounced that overnight conditions were unchanged.
 Fuel Administrator Garfield today took active control of teh situation and made ready to fix maximum price of anthracite at the first evi- dence of attempts to advance selling price.
 Dr. Garfield took part in several conferences, but it was stated official ly that he had not discussed settle ment of the strike with operators.
 Attorney General Palmer, in a letter today to a ship builders coun- ell, which protested against injunc- tion proceedings, sounded new note of hope by declaring his belief that if the federal court at Indianapolis Sat urday held the strike illegal, the min- CTS, las lawabiding citizens, will dis continue it." This letter was made public after the attorney generals office had denied a report that the in- junction suit would be withdrawn.

SENATE DEFEATS
 LODGE PROPOSAL
Last Two Amendments Come Up For Vote in Senate Some Time Today-Hope For Quick Action.

Washington, Nov. 4-Hope for speedy action on the peace treaty frightened up again today when the Senate voted down one amendment, agreed to dispose of two more to- morrow, and renewed informal dis cussion of methods to hasten consid- eration of reservations.
 Tonight some of the optimistic members predicted a vote on ratifca- tion by the end of the week, while the leaders on both sides thought it likely to come within ten days at the latest.
 In the background, however, was the possibility of an eleventh hour rally by the treaty's enemies, who have intimated often that they were mindful of the opportunity which might be presented to talk off final roll call until the session of congress ends in December.
 Altogether the situation was doubt full, but Republican and Democratic managers seemed to be confident that it soon would clear.
 The amendment disposed of today was one by Republican Leader Lodye to strike from the treaty entirely the Shantung provision. The vote was 41 to 26, the proposal failing by the votes of virtually the same senators who several days ago defeated the committee amendment on that subject. Tomorrow action will be sought on the amendment of Senator Gore, Democrat, Oklahoma, for a popular vote before any declaration of war, and later the proposal of Senator La Toilette, Republican, Wisconsin, to strike out the treaty's labor provis- ions, will come up under an agree ment to vote formally on it by p. m. Those are the only amendments now remaining before the Senate.

SALARY INCREASE GRANTED TEACHERS OF STATE NORMAL

Little Rock, Nov. 5.-At a meeting of the State Normal Board yesterday, a slight increase was granted in the salaries of the teachers for the re- maining eight months of the term.
 Superintendent B. w. Torreyson was authorized to negotiate with the Conway school board for additional facilities for practice teaching.
 A petition was received from grad uates of the Normal asking that two mroe years be added to the two years course, making four years collegiate course. The petition was held over for investigation.
 There are now 290 teachers en- rolled in the Normal, and it is expect ed that the total enrolment will be increased to 425 before the year is over. Ninety of those enrolled are boys, and they have no dormitory ac- commodations. There are two hun dred girls, half of whom have dormi- tory facilities and others must board with private families.

Beperidge's :::Life of
Marshall' is Great Work

Sparks gave to Washington. The 81.
perman must be laid aside and some
will think that Mr.. Beveridge has gone
too far in stressing the weak points;
but the man Is great enough to bear
all, and we end with an enhanced
conception of the simple grandeur Of
Marshall, veritable refuge Of safety
in a period Of storm and danger.
Under the surface were the pas
sions and frailties Of man. but the
calm Of his utterances on the bench
was never ruffled by a passing breath
OF contest. The public might be ex-
cited. as in the Burr trial and on the
bank question; the magnitude Of the
issues might be realized, not uncon-
nected with danger to himself; the
human side Of the conflict might be
clear to him; never did he swerve
from the path of duty. We read into
some Of his phrases a threat or an
acceptance Of the gage of battle, but
after a century the ephemeral has
passed and the full scope and force
OF his reasoning are recognized. In
defending the judiciary from attack.
IN laying down Interpretation OF the
constitution which could stand the
test even of civil war, in establish.
Ing the rights of contract and in meet
Ing the threats which later became
nuiiliicatlon and secession. he set
standard which no successor in the
office has attained and under which
every successor has acted. If Wash

| whose personal influence was his
strength, and even more far-sighted
than Hamilton. whose public useful.
ness was lessened by his political am

was ahead of his day.
He lived to see the popular outcry
against the supreme court die down.
and though flouted in the Cherokee
Indians cases. he won a substantial
victory in the action of Jackson again
st South Carolina. He had, however.
lived into period when new politi-
cal policy controlled, and when a ma
jority of his colleagues opposed his
views of national supremacy Be-
coming each year more of a conserva-
tive, he saw the gloomy apprehension
the rise of popular government and the
possibilities it gave to such a ruler as
Andrew Jackson. His letters of
