The reply made by Congress was not
only q refusal to appropriate the money,
but a positive prohibition against con-

President to appoint any further commits

Congress to do so. Had this prohibition

ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY N. D. COCHRAN.

Workingnen and War.-War is a
game of kings, czars and other mas
tiers of men. Often is it played for the
benefit of Big Business. The men who
provoke war, prepare for war and
levy taxes on the people to pay for
war don't do the killing and getting
killed. That is done by the young
men who come from the loins OF
workngmen on farms and in cities.
From childhood these boys are
taught to worship a flag, to work
themselves into frenzy about it, and
to follow it with guns wherever their
master sends it.
In some countries preparation for
war is made by teaching men in their
religion that it is glorious thing to
die for. ones country. Writers write
slush and bunk about patriotism that
makes boys want to go to war and
fight for their country and their flag
Like the sloppy ga Man Without a
Country" for example.
Seldom, however, to the men of
any country who do the fighting the
common soldiers -know what it's all
about. They have no grievance
against the common soldiers of the
other country. They merely obey or
ders- and kill their brothers.
The Austrian farmer doesn't hate
the Servian farmer. The SerVian
workingman doesn't hate the Aus
TRAN workingman Each may have
been taught to hate the. GOVERN
MENT of the other He may imagine
he hates the people of the other gov
eminent. But he doesn't know why.
The people are not the government.
And he has no reason for hating the
people of another government.
If Austria and SerVia fight, then
Russia will fight with Servia, and,
England and France viii have to fight
with Russia. Onthe other hand, Ger
many viii have to back Austria, and

hate the common German, Italian or
Austrian people. Neither do the COM
man people of France and Russia.
Nor do the common people of Austria
hate the common people of England,
France and Russia.
Each set of common people, how
ever, has certain flag waved before
their eyes and when the king says
forward" why forward they go, right
up to the lannon's mouth if need be.
At one time kings were powerful
enough to declare and wage war
whenever the whim moved them.
Later on they had to get the consent
OF the money lenders; for without a
war-cheSt they couldn't fight. The
next step in evolution will make war
dependent upon the common people
the ones who do the killing and get
ting killed.
l think the time will come when
labor unions viii be universal, and the
workers of every industry will have
a common purpose and a worldwide
organization. There will be an ALI

farmers oranges, and the workers in
industry through labor unions.
, Then will come a time when the
toilers, the worlds workers, will de-
termine whether or not they will kill
and be killed.
Suppose all the coal miners of
Europe were to go on strike against
war, and refuse to mine coal to move
trains and battleships. Suppose the
railroad workers of all Europe should
quit their job and, refuse to move
trains for war purposes. r.
Suppose the soldiers themselves
should lay down their guns and refuse
to kill their brothers or be killed by
them. Where would your, old war be
then?

perors, presidents, generals, admirals

Mr.. Delehanty laid before Mr.. Whit
man not only the statements OF the
men who have been held as witnesses,
but also the reports of the detectives
who have been working night and day
for three week on the case. The in
formation from the two sources has
been compared and checked up.
Joseph Cohen, who holds the con-
tracts for unloading poultry in the
New Jersey railroad yards, and his
brother, Jacob Cohen, were arraigned
before Judge Malone in General Ses-
sions Court today to plead to indict-
ments charging them with RESPONSE
bility for an assault upon A. I. Pear

Calls Germans, Writing of
Raid on SeacOast Cities

LONDON, Dec. Il. - Winston
Churchill, first lord of the admiralty,
has written the mayor of Scarbor-
ough on behalf of the admiralty. The
letter says:
Dear Mr.. Mayor: I send you a
message of sympathy, not only on
my sown account, but on behalf of
the navy, in the losses which Scar
borough has sustained. We mourn
with you for the peaceful inhabitants
who have been killed or manned, par
ticularly the women and children.
We admire the dignity and fortitude
with which Scarborough, Whitby and
the Hartlepools fronted the outrage.
We share your disappointment that
the miscreants escaped unpublished.
We await with patience the oppor-
tunity that surely will come.
Nothing proves more plainly the
effectiveness of. British naval pres
sure than the frenzy and hatred
aroused against us in the breasts of
the enemy. Practically the whole
fast cruiser force of the German
navy, including some great ships
vital to their fleet and utterly ir-
replaceable, have been risked for the
passing pleasure Of killing as many
English people as possible, irrespec-
tive OF sex, age or condition, in
limited time.
"Whatever feats of arms the Ger
man navy may hereafter perform,
the stigma of baby killers Of Scar
borough will brand it's officers and
men while sailors sail the sea-"

EMMETT STATUE
FOR WASHINGTON
Memorial to Irish Patriot to Be
Unveiled in Smithsonian
Gallery.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.--A statue
OF Robert Emmet, the Irish patriot,
will be unveiled in the National CAL
tuition next spring. and it is expected
that the ceremonies viii be partici-
pated in by leading Irishmen from
all over the country.
Jerome Common, the sculptor, has
been at work for several months col
Letting material for the statue. and
secured first the death mask from the
Emmett family. He also secured cop
les of O miniature made by the artist
Petrie from memory. Incidentally, 1t
was Petrie who took the death mask
of Emmett by the light of a lantern
in a graveyard after Emmet's head
had been severed from his body.
Robert Emmett was executed in
Dublin on September 20. 1908. The
day before his mother died of
broken heart. The news of her death
was broken to Emmett in his prison
cell.
The Irish rebellion of 1898 was put
down by the English, and the men
who participated in it were sent to
prison or exiled. Relatives of young
Emmett suffered for their participa.
ton, but Notwithstanding this, in
the early part of 1903 he began
plans to set up an Independent gov
eminent In Ireland. He was then
only twenty-three years old.
On July %, 1903, Emmett gave the
order to march on the castle of Dub
lin to make the viceroy prisoner and
secure the official records. His men
killed Lord Kilwardem, the chief
magistrate of ireland, and his
nephew. This was deplored by En-
met and his neutenants, and to this
needless killing more than anything
else is attributed the failure of the
movement.
Emmett intended to go to France
and thence to America. He was cap
tured on the way to see his sweet
heart in Dublin and placed in jail
about the middle of August, 1903, and
on September 10 was placed on trial
and was adjudged guilty of treason.

British Warship Thnnderer
Sunk by Torpedo or Mine
in North Sea, Says Report

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-A report that
the British dreadnought Thunderer
was sunk in the North Sea on Novem-
Der Z by coming into contact with a
mine or being hit by torpedo, was
brought here yesterday by George
Rottweiler, of Chicago, a passenger
on the steamship st. Louis from
Liverpool
According to Mr.. Rottweiler, the
sinking of the dreadnought was wit
messed by eight men, members of the
crew of small Swedish sailing ship
called the Soefjord, that put into
Liverpool with survivors from the
dreadnought on board
These men were taken in charge
by British officers and were kept un-
der surveillance at an ut-Of- theway
sailors mission" said Mr.. Rottweiler.
Through a friend 1 managed to talk
with one of the crew. He told me
that the Thunderer blew up and sunk
in full view of himself and his mates
on the Soefjord. The crew FASTENED
to the scene and a dozen or so OF
men were picked up from the water. y
The Soefiord Is not listed in the
maritime registers, but this may be
due to her being small boat, as
indicated by the small number of the
crew.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-President
Wilson, 1t was understood at the
White House today, believes the Sem
ate should reconsider it's action in
including a clause in it's ratification
of the safety-at-sea convention.
which. advocates of the convention
believe, practically nullifies it. 1t Is
expected that the question will be
brought up in the Senate this week.
Advocates of the convention do not
believe the other nations which

reservation that the United States
shall have the right to make further
safety regulations and impose them
on foreign ships coming into Ameri-
can territorial waters.

Brooklyn Sculptor Works
in Paris on Princeton
Statue While War RACES

PARIS. Dec. 21.-In the midst of
the European war, Frederick Nc
Monies, the Brooklyn sculptor, is
busy making statue that Is to
commemorate the struggle for liberty
in America. When it is finished, his
latest production will be placed at
Princeton, ". J., as a memorial to
the battle of Princeton, which is
called by many the turning point in
the American war for independence.
1t is to be group in high relief, and
one of the principal figures will be
General George Washington himself.
No one but the sculptor and his
intimate friends have yet seen the
piece of statuary that is being mold
ed in the Paris studio, but when it
is finished next spring, it is probable
that II will be one of the master
pieces of the artist, who is frequent
ly ranked next to Auguste Rodin.
