NEGRO MURDERER BURNED AT STAKE:
 BY A TEXAS MOB
Efforts to Stay Execution of Death Sentence Enrages
 Victims Friends.

Hillsboro, Texas, Jan. 20.-Bragg Williams, negro, under death sen- tence f6rr the murder of Mrs. George Wells and her child, at 1tasca, was taken from Hill County jail here at noon today by mob and burned at the stake. The crowd was orderly and there was little excitement. Notice of appeal from the sentence was filea by Williams attorneys today and this action is said to have led the mob to taking the case into it's own hands. Mrs. Wells and her child were found murdered in their home near Itasca on December End, 1918. Williams was arrested on the day of the murder and spirited away to avoid threatened violence.
 This morning Williams was taken before Judge Horton Porter and sentenced to be hanged on Februarv Fist. Attorneys for the defendant immediately filed notice of appeal. This is said to have enSaged reseder of the Itasca neighborhood present who numbered several score.

SAYS BOLShfYIKI
 POWER IS ENEMY
 Of ENTENTE ALLIES
French Ambassador to Rus sia Reports to Supreme
 Council.

Paris, Jan. 2O--The two notable events of the day were the meeting of the supreme war council to con- sder the Russia situation and the luncheon to President Wilson at LuXemburS palace.
 The luncheon, besides bringing to- gether brilliant assemblage, also brought the declaration from Presi- dent Wils2n rhar the peril of France if it continues, will be the peril of the world and not cnly must France organize against the peril, but the world must organize against it."
 President Attends Meeting.
 The meeting of the supreme cOun- cil was attended by President Will son, Secretary Lansing and repre- sentatives of the other four great powers. An hour was :.iven over to hearing M. Noulens, the French am- bassador who has just returned rom Russia, where he witnessed the changes which have been taking place in tEe government and condi- tiOss there. What he told the coun- cil was not disclosed but an author
  up his views thus:
 '"The Bolshevist power is the en- emy of the entente. It is responsi- ble for the Russian defection from the entente. It furnished Germany with food during the war. It pro- tested against the terms of the Ger man armistice. These acts show an uncompromising attitude of hostility against the entente.
 Terror Increasing,
 "Tyranny and terror, which are in. creasng daily, should place the bloody chiefs at Moscow and Petr~- grad outside the pale of humanity. No society of nations could deal with such a regime, which constitutes to- day the most serious obstacle to a general peace Until the regime falls, development which I hope the allies will actively geek to bring about, Europe will continue to be ex- posed to the severest risks of agita- tion and war" --..
 M Nouens will be followed to- morroww by the Danish minister, H. Scavsnius, who will speak along the same lires.
 The luncheon to President Wilson was one of the most elaborate func- tions thus far held, with co guests, including two presidents and many premiers and public leaders. in the sumptuous setting of one of the fin est of the old world palaces. The throne room of the Bourbon kings 1 was used for the first time since . hundred years ago when Napoleon banqueted his generals returning l from battle.

the story anyhow. And if you can stands it here it is:
 Two negro girls walked into police headquarters yesterday and asked to see the chief
 "What is it, girls, Chief Stewart asked
 "Mr. Steward. kin we see Jule Duvall?" one of them asked.
 "Jule is over at the county jail," the chief said. What do you want with him?"
 "Wese got a marriage license fo' him.. she answered. You see," she went on to explain, "Jule, he figured on gettin' married, and tn cops done got 'em fore he could do hit. We got tn license fo' him anyhow, and we wants to know eff they'd let lem get married in jail? De gal he gwine to marry say she marry him eff he get a year in de pen"
 Chief Stewart sent them over to the county jail and shortly after wards Emma Conley joined them, and Emma. and Jule were made one with. in the walls of the county jail. JuIe is now a benedict. and he is running true to form, for surely he's "gOt a ball and chain around his ankle"
 Now I don't see anything wrong about that story. Society editors are cranky anyhow though.

PEACE MAKERS MAY PROSECUTE FORMER EMPEROR French Newspapers Would Demand Surrender
 By Holland.
COMMITTEE MAY
 DECIDE HIS FATE
Dutch Jurists Admit That New League oi Nations Could Try Mr.
 Wm. H0henzOllern.

Paris, Jan. 20-(Havas. )-Long discussions concerning the respon- sibility of former Emperor William and other prominent Germans for crimes committed in the prosecution of the war appear in the newspapers
 The Matin says that as regards the crimes committed against France, the facts already have been established by careful inquiry which has virtual ly been completed. It says that sev- eral eminent jurists unanimously hold that William Hohenzollern can be prosecuted under Article 56 of the Hague convention which lays down rules for warfar on land. The jurists are of the opinion that the punish ment must be inflicted on those who issued the orders rather than on the subordinates who carried them out.
 The Journal calls attention to the fact there is available to the peace conference a committee on jurisdicial consultations to which the opinions of the delegates regarding the respoonsi- bility of William Hohenzollern prob ably will be referred. This commit Stee could then present plans for a formal inquiry to the conference which, if it agrees with teh committee can issue formal indiccmentf
 To obtain the release of the former Emperor, the paper adds, a demand can be made on Holland by the na- tions about to form league of na- tions. The demand will not be for the extradition of the former Empe""- it i sthe opinion of leading jurists that Holland. which will also form a part but for his surrender. The paper says of the league, cannot evade the duty of surrendering the former Emperor to the other nations in the ueague in order that he may be brought up for trial,

"A marriage of no little interest to mutual friends was that which took place at the county jail yester- day"
 Now that is as far as the thing went, and here is why:
 The police reporter and the soci- ety editor are not on very good terms. The reason they are not is because the society editor, being a highly manicured bird, thinks the po- lice reporter is a low brow, and a rough neck.
 Now the reporter is not making any reference to the altitude of the s. Els dome, but if he wanted to, he could tell some things-however, he happened on to a good wedding func- tion and wrote it up and handed 1t to the S. E.. and the little sentence up there all wrapped up in quota ticn- marks is how it started. But the S. E. didn't take to it.
 He said "The only way I'd run that would be down to the river and push it in. Dear me, it would ruin my following should that appear in my column!"
 Think of it! Albeit, some things are all right, but insult and calumny from the society editor is out of or der So the police reporter wrote

PACKER PLANS TO
 SETTLE DISPUTES

Columbia. Mo-. Jan. 20.-Thomas E. Wilson, president of Wilson and company. in addressing farmers to- day attendg the Missouri Farmers Week, urged the orgaizatio of a cen tral body representing every brancn of the livestock industry as means of settling disputes between produc- CTS and packers.
 Such an organization, he said, would bring the shippers and pack CTS closer together and prevent the flooding of the markets with live stock. The speaker ssid the fixed price for hogs established hv the gov ernment showed what could be ac- ccmplished by organization and ccn- ference of all interests.
 MT. Wilson referred to the Iafol- lette seamen's act which he said is regarded as so exacting by shipping interests as to imperil this country's foreign meat trade.

OPPOSE
 LEGISLATION TO
 REGULATE MEAT
Do Not Want Government Supervision of Meat
 Packing Industry

Washington, Jan. 20.-Ofsicials of independent packing and stock yard firms appeared before the senate ag- riculture and house Interstate Com merce committees today to oppose legislation. for government supervi- sion of the meat packing industry. Francis J. Heney of San Francisco, chief counsel for the federal trade commission in its investigation for five big packing concernsfi also was witness.
 William Magiviny, president of the St. Paul union stock yards, told the house committee that government in- tervention would cause more harm than good and suggested that after it's experience in fixing Ihp price of wheat. the government should go slow in attempting to fix meat prices.
 D. w. Taliaferro, vice president and general manager of the Detroit firm of Hammond, Standish md company told the senate committee that. while he was opposed to government own ership, he believed that would be bet ter than an attempt Oy the govern ment to regulate packing houses. and stock yards.
 James s. Agar, president of the John Agar company. Chicago, said he never has been discriminated against by the large packers and that he not infreguently was able to get refris- orator cars from them. He urged that these cars be left with their present owners
 MT. Heney charged that the "bis five" packers have "throttled the packing industry@ throughout the country to build an artificial monop- oly at Chicago. where prices are fix ed for the entire country"
 The witness also said the packers were interested in obtaining repre- sentation on the Council of National Defense because it was expected committees would be formed for pur- chasing food supplies. Correspond ence from the packers files. he add ed, shows there were many ways in which they expected to benefit from the activities of the council
 Joseph Taggart, former represent ative from Kansas, denied before the senate. that while mem'her of con- gross he was favorable to the pack CTS, as was indicated by testimony offered recently by MT Heney.
