NEGRO QUARTET
 IS ARRESTED IN
 ACT OF SPINDLE
Arrest May Have Connection With Recent Thefts of Got

Chief of Police J. Frank Stewart, Traffic Officer Middlebrook and Off, cer Jim Moore yesterday placed un- der arrest four negroes. S. B. Parks, Henry Pam, H. D. Caldwell and Tom Davis. all of Memphis, and are hold ing them for further investigation which may involve the quartet in 9 series of negro robberies in Pine Bluff and other sections of the state.
 The negroes were caught at Main and Second shortly after noon. while they were in the act of swindling Scott Anderson, Tamo negro, out of money which he had just received from the sale of cotton. The negroes were perpetrating the old pocket book trick on Anderson. Having en- gagged him in a conversation one of them suddenly and quietly dropped a well filled pocket book behind them. It was explained to Anderson that he and the conspirators. being the sole witnesses to the finding of the pocket book, could split the find ings, and each nrofit Before the winnings are split it is customary to obtain the victims own money for

 Negroes, operating it is believed from Memphis, several times within the past few weeks have worked the rocket book trick and similar swin- dies on country negroes who have sold their cotton and received large sums of money for the same. Re- gently negro here lost $500: an- other $195 and other robberies have been reported from this section.
 The quartet arrested yesterday were of party of nine that came from Memphis the day before. Five of these went on to Camden and did not stop here. Officers there were notified. The negroes arrested yes terday were spotted by local police when they arrived and shadowed until they were arrested.

Claims Condition
 of Cotton is 46

Columbia, S. C., Oct. 2s.-The American Cotton association issued it's crop report this afternoon. showing a condition for the cotton belt up to October 25 of 46 per cent, indicated yield of 9,437,000 bales. However, on account of excessive rains throughout the western cotton belt, there will not be over six mill lion bales of this crop of such grade that it can be rendered on the con- tracts of the exchange. If cold weather follows the present rainy spell it will reduce this indicated yield by at least 300,000 bales.
 The cotton spinners are constantly requesting reports from the Ameri- can Cotton association on condition and crop, and are recognizing them as being the most authoritative re- ports available.

SPECIAL STAFF TO ENFORCE THE
 NEW DRY LAW
Roper Appeals to Citizens, Churches, Civic Societies
 for Aid.

Washington, Oct. 28.-Law abiding citizens, churches, civic organizations and welfare societies were summoned tonight by Commissioner Roper to aid the bureau of internal revenue in enforcing the prohibition enforce ment law Any flouting of the law, he declared, would bring into disre- pute the American form of govern ment.
 While the bureau is made the agency directing enforcement of the measure, with the department of justice conducting prosecutions, re- sponsibility is not confined to feder- al officers, the commissioner said. State, county and municipal off cials are expected to do full share in stopping and punishing violations.
 Local officers being expected to take the initiative in enforcing the law in their territory, any failure or dereliction to assume their full re- sponsibility will be brought to the at tention of the law abiding citizens of the community by officials of the bureau.
 MT. Roper's plans contemplate the organization of a prohibition en- forcement staff which will be devoted entirely to that work and complete ly dissociated from the tax collection activities. There will be deputy commissioner in Washington in charge of the prohibition section, and deputy collectors in each district with an efficient force of men under them. Pending the organization of this force, employees qualified for the work who can be spared from the tax work, have been directed to CO., operate with the public and with To- cal officers.

RATIFICATION 70 END WARTIME 'DRY' MEASURE: Senate Overrides Wilson's Veto But Way Is Opened for Re-
 Opening Saloons. NO FIGHT TO DELAY
 PACT, ANTIS CLAIM New Law Makes It Offense for Man to Display Picture of keg.
 May Store for Own
 Use.

Washington, Oct. 2s.-The senate passed the prohibition enforcement act over the presidents veto today and made immediately effedtive machinery for preventing sale of beverages containing more than one half of one per cent alcohol.
 The vote was 65 to 20, or eight more than the necessary two thirds maj ajority. While there was wrangle over taking up the measure in place of the peace treaty, which had the right of way, there never was doubt as to how the senate stood. It was overwhelmingly "dry" like the house, which repassed the bill within three hours after the president had vetoed it.
 Before congress at $40 o'clock, finally clinched enactment of the en- forcement law, despite presidential objection to linking war time and constitutional prohibition acts, there came from the White House the an- nouncement that the wartime law, cessation of hostilities would be an- | nulled the moment the senate formal | ly ratified the German peace treaty. l It was the most definite of all off, cial or semi-official statements bear ing on the war time act. Prohibi- tion leaders were plainly disturbed by the news because they had counted firmly upon the country reaching the effective date of constitutional pro- hibition-January 16, 1920-without re-opening of saloons.
 Despite the clamor set up by wet and dry forces over the White House pronouncement, senate leaders said they would proceed with con- sideration of the treaty as hereto fore. Senators who have taken an active part in the prohibition cam paign branded as unfair and absurd, reports that they would delay the treaty simply to keep the liauor traf- fife from getting foothold in the comparatively short period remaining before the country will go dry for good.
 Formal denial was issued from headquarters of the anti-saloon league that it's officers would take part in any movement calculated to delay the treaty.
 With today's action by the senate the department of justice is ready to deal with any offenders against the drastic provisions of the new act.
 So drastic is the enforcement act that a man, for instance, may be fined or put in jail for displaying a picture of brewery or a keg, but his right to store liquor in his own home for his own use stood up against all attacks in committee and both houses of congress.
 Warning went tonight to dealers and sellers of two and three quar- ters per cent beer. without apparent risk heretofore, that the new law fixed one half of one per cent at the legal limit of alcoholic content.

Labor Meeting Today.


 Washington, Oct. 2S.-The first of the international bodies created by the treaty of Versailles to meet in America, the international labor con- ference, will convene here at noon tomorrow. Sessions of the confer ence are expected to continue for a month and to lay the foundation ot a world wide movement for improve ment and standardization of workers
 Although the legal status of the gathering still is held in doubt in some quarters, members of the or ganizing committee and department of labor officials were agreed today that the delegates who have arrived, representing more than 30 countries, should proceed to organize some sort of conference and discuss the agenda prescribed in the peace treaty. Secretary of Labor Wilson still holds that only those states which have ratified the treaty can participate in the official conference, which is part of the machinery of the league of nations. A plan, how ever, has been proposed which is ex- pected to reconcile technical legally with the practical necessity of hold ing the conference at this time without postponment.
