ANXIETY
IN IRELAND

LONDON, Oct. 3.-The situation
in Ireland is causing a great deal Of
anxiety to the home government. Ev-
eryone acquainted with public affairs
who has been approached on the sub
ject admits that there is trouble
ahead, and that ii is apt to be Serious.
If a separate government is to be
established by the opponents OF some
Rule, there, it is predicted that a
chanege in England's history is i'm
pending that may develop into almost
anything. There is no guarantee that
a separate state would not be devel-
oped: and there is every indication
that any movement of the kind would
want unusual privileges. The anti
Home Rule leaders, however. declare
that their only purpose is to have one
llnd and one government III England.

Congress Majority Report AS
sails McDermOtt and Ma
tiOnaI Manufacturers Assn.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.--Results of
the House lobby investigation by a
committee, headed by Representative
Garret, of Tennessee, were made pub
lie today in two reports--a majority
report, signed by Democrat and Re-
publican alike, and a supplemental
report filed by Representative Nc
Donald, of Michigan.
The majority made no recommenda-
tions. but declared that Representa-
tive McDermott, of Illinois, had been
guilty OF acts of grave improperly,
unbecoming the dignity of his posi-
ton, though 1--WE cannot say that he
has been corrupted in his votes" The
majority report also held that Nc
Dermott, having intimate relations
with 1. H. McMichael. former chief
page of the House, knew that NJ. M.
Mulhall. "a lobbyist for the National
Association of Manufacturers" en-
ployed McMichael. The majority held
that both the National Association of
Manufacturers and the American
Federation of Labor engaged in politi-
cal activities and expended money to
effect nominations and elections of
the members of the House of Rep
resentatives.
The main conclusions of the major
ity define q lobby as "a person or
body of persons seeking to influence
Legislation by Congress in any man
1er whatsoever" The National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers, the Ma
tional Council for Industrial Defense,
the National Tariff Commission AS
ISOLATION, the American Federation of
Labor, the Washington City Associa-
ton of Liquor Dealers and local loan
sharks are found to have maintained
lobbies.
Martin M. Mulhall is held to have
admitted errors in some statements
made in his charges but to have been
corroborated in other matters of i'm
portance by officials of the National
Association of Manufacturers and the
National Council for Industrial De-
Tense. Mulhall, the report says, was
extravagant in many of his claims
and over-stated his potency and infiu-
ence with members of Congress and
public men generally; he entertained

POISON NEEDLE
SUSPECT FREED
|N,s1,OOO BAIL
Judge Hahn Declares Evidence
Such as to Warrant Reduc-
ing Prisoners Bond.

Reduction of bail to $1,000 and the
release of the prisoner were today's
developments in the case of Armand
Megaro. aged twenty of 26 Hal
sey street, who has been held since
Friday in default of $4,000 bail on a
charge of having attacked Mrs. Mar
jorie Graft. of 414 Jefferson avenue,
Brooklyn. q bride of few days, with
an alleged poisoned needle, as she sat
in a darkened box in the Lyric Thea
tre.
Judge Simon Hahn. of the First Pre-
cinct Court, who reduced the ball. said
he did so because the authorities in
their investigation had not found any
thing against Megaro that warranted
such prohibitive bail.
Captain Frank Tulte, of the detec-
tive bureau, and Second Assistant
Prosecutor Van Blarcom were present
when the application for the reduction
in bail was made and entered no OBJ
lection.
The prisoner was represented by
Attorneys James D'Aloia and Cassi-
mere Scoppettore. Mr.. D'Aloia in his
plea declared in most emphatic terms
that the prisoner was innocent of any
wrongdoing and had been arrested
and charged with this offense simply
because he happened to be sitting in
the box at the theatre when the
alleged attack was made. He pointed
out that the most searching investi-
cations conducted by the detective
bureau and attaches of the prose-
cutor's office has failed to bring out
anything detrimental to the character
of the defendant, and argued that,
had Megaro used a poison needle, as
asserted by Mrs. Graft, it was un-
likely that he would have sat there
awaiting the arrival of the police to
come and arrest him.
Judge Hahn said he had fixed pro-
hibitlve bail originally on the strength
of statements made by the detective
bureau that they believed they could
fasten the alleged crime on the de-
fendant, and the persistent rumors of
girls being attacked in theatres and
department stores by supposed white
slave agents intent upon carrying
them away.
Although of the belief that Megaro
did not attack Mrs. Graft as de-
scribed by her, Captain Tuite insists
that the young bride, in relating her
experience in the theatre, told what
she believed to be the truth. He de-
clares he believed something hap
pened in the theatre box, but inti-
mates that mental suggestion may
have had something to do with it.
II believe Mrs. Graft to be a truth
full woman, and would believe her as
readily as ! would my own daugh-
ter" said Captain Tuite today. 81
talked with her, not for few min
utes. but for several hours, and there
is no doubt in my mind but that she
told exactly what she believed"
After announcement had been made
of the reduction of bail, DR.. Pancrazio
Megaro. of 313 High street, an uncle
of the defendant, who was present in
court offered bail. which was ac-
cepted by the court.
