Eyewitness Says That Artillery Rode

Soldiers
BY Mary Boyle o'ReiIly

Brussels, Aug. 15.-I have talked
to man who has been in and about
Liege since the city was first besiez-

that there was terrible carriage, hor-

An Amsterdam merchant, one OF
the first noncombatants to visit the
battlefields of Wise and Liege, told
me what he had seen.
Scenes Were Terrible
Il never want to set my foot upon
another battlefield" he declared, and
l hope to God that there will never
be another battlefield any place on
the globe again!"

You'd Wise; pierced by . bullet and
mangled beneath the iron wheels OF

He had fred upon passing Ger
man troops from his fathers cottage.
The soldiers had dragged him out to-
gether with his father, and left the
one unconscious, the other dead IN
the path of the guns that followed.
Prayed for Death
Perhaps death has blessed the boy
by now. Pray God be 1t so! He was
moaning pitifully for 1t, as we pass
ed in our motor, only few hours
ago. But we did not stop. Horror
to confess, l hardly noticed his sur
fering. | had seen so much Ike H.

compressed in the bloody mass OF the
dead.

would be glorious to be one OF !he

gians had been SO valiantly lighting
for hearth and home against the IN
vaders.
Would that ! had been the last
to visit them-after the wounded had
all been taken up. and the dead burn
ed or buried! might then have been
spared the fearful picture OF carnage
which is now painted on my mind In
horror, forever.
Dead Lie In Heaps
There were flowers and smiling
faces in the neat cottage windows, as
sped through the peaceful frontier
village Of Mesch. Yet only little

Contracts for the construction OF

The Northwest Construction company
of San Francisco has the contract
for the building there and II. p.
Hoyt has the contract for the San
Diego building both being the lowest
bidders. Utah contractors were in
vited to bid on the buildings but, with
one exception, did not do so, ex-
planning that the cost Of equipping
plants so far from home was too
great. The San Diego building Will
be of the old Spanish type and will
contain all the principal exhibits OF
the state at that fair. The San Fran
cisco building is of the classic re-
nassance type and will contain sew
eral important exhibits in addition
to those the state will place in the

MARKET STRONGER
 ON STEADY BUYING

A-ls
 New York, March 17-b Opening The early market today paraileled recent sessions with quiet trading and mar row movements among the special ac- tive stocks and wide fluctuations in 2 few issues affected by special indu- ences.
 Texas pfd was again acutely weak. It fell s-4 to 4 .1-4. the lowest since 1904. New Haven yielded a point but quickly recovered the loss. United States Express lost points of it's re- cent rise.

 The general market moved tIncer- tainly at first but. stifrened later zn- der the lead of AnaIgamated which gained nearly a point.
 Noon-The cumulative effect of persistent buying on recent recessions was apparent in the stock market today. Failure to unsettle the list by concerted pressure on New Haven and Kansas and Texas issued reueal- ed the strong technical position of the market and gave an opportunity for a squeeze of the shorts
 After a IistIess beginning, the mar ket gradually gathered strength, be- coming more active on the upturu. Buying was promoted by reports of bending favorable developments in the Mexican situaion which, while they apparently had no authentic ort- gin, influenced trading widely. Re- ports of business expansion in var ious lines stimulated the inquiry for the industriais and there was good absorption of many. railroad shares with high investment ratings Bonds were irregular.

 The members of the cast have been working diligently on their parts for some weeks past and all are now letter perfect and eager to make their bow to the public this evening. The story of the play is amusing. The scene is laid first in Chicago and later in Yougha1, Ireland. Many amusing characters, illustrating the ready wit of the Irish are introduced throughout the acts.
 Besides this nearly all of the lovely old Irish songs are used in the play. The music is all of a very high qual- ity. It is hoped that many lovers of the green will avail themselves of this opportunity for refreshing their memories of the fatherland. and Of Irish customs, wit and song.
 The curtain will rise at 8 o'clock sharp. At ten o'clock, when the play is concluded, there will be dancing.
 The proceeds of the play will be used for charitable purposes.

 Wilson s Pardon
Labor Leaders Convicted in in- dianapelis Case Declare
 Judge Was Biased.

Washington. March duplication for pardon by eighteen of the labor leaders convicted in the sdynamitins cases, at Indianapolis was filed today with the department oE Justice by the prisoners attorney, Elijah N. Zo- line, of Chicago The petition alleges that the men were innocent and that Judge Albert B, Anderson, who pre- sided over the federal court at In- dianapoIs when they were convicted, did not give them a fair and iTnpar- tial trial.
 MT. zoIine announced What at least 20 members of the House and several Senators would appear before the de- partment or the President in behalf of the convicted men.
 The application alleged Judge Anderson allowed only su emp lions to his rulings as suited shis fan cy. that he repeatedly seized oppor- tunitfes to make long speeches to the jury commenting upon the facts in a way calculated to show that the de- fendan4s were guilty and that he ridiculed and intIrnidated counsel and witnesses for the defense.
 In supplemented letter to Presid ent Wilson MT. Zolfne stated that a spe- scial train to convey the defendants ordered 40 days before the verdict by the jury and that the men were on their way to the penit entiary one hour after sentences were pronounced upon them.
 He added that. without good reason the judge many times during the trial walked from his residence to his court room accompanied by tFcials in view Of the jury, thus giving the jury the false impression that a state of IaWlessness existed in indianapolis
 It was also alleged that Judge Am derson. during the trial freauentiy consulted with an of1ciai of the Erec- tcrs association and heard sugges- tions from him privately in the absence of the defendants and their coun- sel
