Irish Nationalists Get
Big Consignment of Arms
Bv Associated Press

Londonderry, Ireland, April 2S. =
The Irish Nationalist volunteers, a
body similar in organization to the
Ulster Unionist volunteers. made mat
ters even with their political opponents
early to-day by successfully landing a
large consignment of arms.
The weapons, which are said to have
been brought from America, were
taken ashore at remote spot on the
coast of the county Donegal, in the
war west of Ulster.
A strange steamer had been seen off
the coast for three successive nights.
Late last night a number of fishing
craft approached, took off the cargo
and succeeded in evading the coast
guards and landing the rifles, which
were quickly distributed.
The size of the consignment is un-
known, but 1t is believed to have been
considerable. although not equaling
the 10000 rifles and 10000 rounds OF
ammunition the unionists received on
April Is.

Railroads Are Adopting
"Spotting" Suggestion


Washington, ID. c., April 2S.-Rail-
ways operating in eastern classification
territory have adopted the evident
suggestion given them by the Inter
state Commerce Commission and have
begun to file tariffs providing for a
charge for "spottng' cars. The pro-
visions and charges contained in the
tariffs are Identical in all instances, in
dicating concerted action on the part
of the roads The charges are five
and one-half cents a ton with mini
mum charge of $2 a car.
In eastern classification territory,
it is estimated that there arc nearly
27,000 spur tracks or sidings, on
which cars new are spotted by the
railroads without charge. The exact
ion OF 50 a car for the service, it is
believed would increase the revenues
of the roads at least $4,000, 900 a
year. A charge for car ''spotting" is
one of the ways proposed to increase
the returns to the railroads without
making straight advance in rates.

in the Colorado coal fields became
more serious last night than at any
time since the inception of the strike
last September. Violence spread from
III southern fields to those of the eX-

the southern zone. which probably will
cost the lives of seven mine guards at
the Walsen mine near Walsenburg.
The conflicts between strikers and
mine guards at WaJsen and at the
Hecla mine at Louisville continued
throughout the night. The arrival of
the militia from Ludlow at the Walsen
mine apparently had no effect upon
the many strikers who kept up their
fire at the mine from long range, even
after the troopers reinforced the de-
