PAPER MEN MAKE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Get All They Can for Their
 Product .CURTAIL PRODUCTION MT. Hastings of American Paper and Pulp Association Says He Thinks
 the Senate Is Little
 Too Inquisitive
CURTAIL PRODUCTION

Washington, May 6.-Acknowledgmen was made today that the American Paper and Pulp association at times had advised its members to curtail their production nf paper and that it's purpose was to educate the paper manufacturers of the country to get all they could for their product.
 The admission came from Arthur c. Hastings, president of the Amrican Paper and Pulp association, who before the Sen ate finance committee opposed the Cana dian reciprocity agreement. He denied, however that any attempt had been made to fix arbitrarily the price of paper by a gentlemen's agreement or otherwise.
 Mir. Hastings acknowledged in reply to a query by Snator Stone that he had sent out letters last July to members of the association advising them to reduce their production because of the over-sup- ply and at other times he had advised storing part of their product until supply and demand were more nearly equal. He denied he had suggested to them the price they should demand or at which price they should sell.
 Senator Bailey suggested that MT. Hast ings in appearing before the finance com mitte might be seeking immunity from being called as witness in case the gov ernment should investigate the so-called
 paper trust" MT Bailey said that if there was such a trust he wanted to see it prosecuted. Mr Hastings announced he would waive any immunity he might secure as result of his apparance today.
 Mir. Hastings admitted that curtail- ment of output was practiced to main tain uniform prices. In answer to the charge that the International Paper company controlled the paper industry of the country, MT. Hastings said the compan& owned only about 30 or 40 of the 800 paper and wood mills of the United States.
 When Senator Stone asked if there was not some sort of understanding between the paper manufacturers as to curtailment of production when they were so advised by the American Paper and Pulp association, MT. Hastings said:
 The senator seems to be suffering from the disease of suspicion"
 Then l come to you as a physician to cure me-" rctorted MT. Stone.
 MT. Hastings attacked the newspa- pers declaring that they were mot fit to read half the time.'
 And yet you are willing to furnish the paper on which to print this bad news?" asked Senator Stone
 II am not in business for a moral purpose" answered MT. Hastings.

ENGLAND !DEAOF
 MONROE DOCTRINE

London, May 26.-The Spectator to- day comments on the indorsement by Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign secretary, of the Monroe doctrine dur ing his speech at the dinner of the Pill grims society last Tuesday night, as expressing the universal feeling of Englishmen on the subject In his speech Sir Edward defined the Monroe doctrine as meaning that no European nation could acquire more territory on the American continent and added, "our policy is in full accord with that doctrine"
 The Spectator points out that as things are, the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine necessitates the devel- opment by the United States of navy and military strength equal to the car rying out of the responsibility she as- sumes, the only alternative being the abandonment or modification of her Monroe policy.
 The newspaper hopes that this latter, the United States will never do, "as We believe the doctrine is for the peace of the world and that she should in- sist on it."
 The Spectator adds that if the present movement toward arbitration continues the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine "by consent might be possible" and says it considers Sir Edward Grey's definite recognition of the policy a long step in that direction.

 CLEAN UP CHICAGO

Chicago May 26.-Ten men. none of them charged with a specific crime but classified by the police as labor stuggers and gun men," were ar rested today, following the determina- tion of Mayor Harrison to put a stop to the continuation of lawlessness in which three men have been shot to death and a dozen more have been beaten.
 The arrests followed the killing of William Gentleman, an alleged labor stugger, three days ago in saloon in State street. The saloon was on the busiest street in the city, hundreds of persons were passing, nearly dozen persons, including two city detectives were in the saloon at the time of the shooting, but not an arrest was made until today.

Mc- Cabe was with Gentleman in North side saloon when Gentleman was sum- moned by telephone. to the State street saloon. run by Patrick O'Malley, known as a resort much frequented by labor union men.
 McCabe went with Gentleman in the latters automobile to O'Malley's and the shooting began at once.
 The stuggings and the shooting af- fairs are said to have started several months ago in the jurisdictional war fare between two factions of the plumbers and steamfitters. From this warfare fighting was said to have final ly degenerated into personal fights be- tween stuegers and gun fighters.
