IRISH REVOLT MAS COLLAPSED
SAY LONDON OFFICIALS.

London, May AFTER nearly a week
Of fighting in the streets Of Dublin and
the killing of scores the Irish revolt
practically has collapsed
This statement. which was issued by
the official press bureau, shows that
the military has the situation well in
hand:
"The general officer commanding the
forces in Ireland has reported the sit
uation in Dublin mush more satisfac-
tory. Throughout the country there
was still much more to be done, which
would take time, but he said that the
back of the rebellion has been broken
Last night messengers were sent
out from the rebel leaders in Dublin to
the rebel bodies in Galway, Glare
Wexford, Louth and Dublin counties
ordering them to surrender, and the
Royal Irish constabulary are doing
their utmost to disseminate this in
formation.
"As regards the situation in Dublin
rebels from the area Of Sackville
street, the postoifce and the Four
Courts are surrendering freely.
More incendiary fires took place in
Sackville street last night, but the fire
brigade is now able to resume work
1T is further reported that up to
the present 7O7 prisoners have been
taken. Included among these is the
Countess of Markievicz.

4 BIG SPRING.

The state of Florida has its full
share of large and beautiful springs
Many of them form good-size streams
from the beginning and some are nav
igable.
The largest spring in the state, and
one of the largest and probably the
best known in the United States, is
Silver Spring, which is located SIX
miles east of Ocala. This spring forms
the principal source of the Okalaha
river, a tributary of the St Johns
and steamboats, traversing the river
enter the spring basin, which has an
area of several acres. The water is
from nine TO thirty feet deep, and
wonderfully clear. appearing abso-
lutely colorless.

U-BOAT TO BE USED AS CRUISER
ONLY BY GERMANY PEND
ING NEGOTIATIONS.

Washington, May Information
received last night from German
sources is to the effect that the Ber-
lin government has considered reply
ing to the American demand for the
immediate abandonment of present
methods of submarine warfare with
an offer to have it's submarines ope-
rate, at least temporarily, only as
cruisers against enemy merchantmen.
German officials are said to have ex-
pressed themselves as being favor
able toward the plan.
The State Department, SO far as is
known, has no information on the sub
ject.
If the German reply has been draft
ed, official information on the subject
is lacking.
That a note will be sent by Berlin
in preference to instructions to Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambassa-
dor, is considered in German quarters
to be certain. 1t is known that the
latter method of procedure was at one
time considered by the German gov
eminent. The idea was said to have
been abandoned, however, because
German officials in Berlin felt a note
would serve all purposes more com
pletely.
The American note calls upon Ger
many to Immediately declare and eff
feet" an abandonment of existing sub
marine practices. In German quar-
tiers it is intimated that it is quite
possible thae Berlnn government will
so declare and effect" and qualify the
action with a statement that the de-
claration is to remain in effect pend
ing final agreement over the princi-
Piles involved. There is no indication
whether such action would meet with
the approval of the United States.
1t was intimated at the State De-
partment soon after the American
note was dispatched, however. that the
United States might consent to further
negotiations on the subject, in the
event of Germany declaring and eff
fecting what the United States de-
mands. II was made clear, however,
that the demands would have to be ac-
ceded to first.
According to the advices from Ger
man sources. Berlin's reply is expect
ed to deal with broad principles rather
than specific cases of illegal attacks by
German submarines. The specific cases
it is said, will be taken up later,
should the two governments reach an
agreement on the principles.
There is no definite information here
regarding the time when the reply
may be expected.
1t is felt in diplomatic and official
quarters that II hardly will be re-
ceived before the middle of the week
at the earliest.

THOUSANDS OUT ON STRIKE As
MAY FIRST DAwNS.

II
New York, May Am analysis OF
labor conditions in this city and the
metropolitan district shows that on
May dawned with between $4,000 and
10000 workingmen and women on
strike or locked out, with other indus
trial disturbances threatened which
may throw thousands more out Of en-
ployment
Strikes involving scores of thou
sands are in effect or threatened in
other parts of the east, notably In
Pittsburg, where $4,000 Westinghouse
employees are on strike. Settlement
also is pending of the countrywide
demands of 100000 railway employees
I Taken altogether, no May day in re-
cent years has witnessed so many con-
lorete evidences of industrial unrest,
in spite of the fact that many thou
sands Of workers have been granted
higher wages and shorter hours.
The right of labor to an increased
share in the country's prosperity re-
sulting from the war, Joined with the
higher cost Of living, are declared by
labor leaders generally to form tho
foundation of labor demands
An encouraging development almost
on the eve of May Day was the an
uouncement that a tentative agree
ment had been reached by the repre-
sentatives of the operators and miners
which probably would avert strike
175,OOO miners in the anthracite coal
fields.
| Announcement was made tonight
also that because Of concessions grant
ed by steamship companies and mas
ter steveedores general strike OF
workmen on the water front in this
city was not probable.
Industrial disturbances here include
one of the most serious in the city's
history. The Cloak, Suit and Skirt
Manufacturers Association, members
of which do an aggregate business an.
nually estimated at SS76,OOO.OOO anti.
cipating a possible strike during the
height of the summers activities in
garment making, forestalled such ac'
ton last week by declaring a lockout
affecting between 10000 and $4,000 en-.
ployees.
Union leaders expressed the belief
today that trouble will last unit
ISeptCmbcr l. The lockout was fol-
lowed by a threat on the part OF
some $4,000 employees in independent
shops to walk out today or Tuesday
unless the employers grant their de-
mand for a continuance of the pro.

Although MIR. Marr's operate career

mittee, in answer to Chairman Will
cox's charges of the existence OF a
"iOker" in the child labor law are
characterized by Mr.. Mccormick as a
deliberate attempt to fiyspeck the
act" The Mccormick statement says;
"The Republican chairman under
his own signature gave wide publicity
to a statement alleging that the child
labor act contains Joker under
which the exploiter OF the labor OF
little children can escape the penal
ties OF the law by hauling his goods
to a warehouse before shipping them
in interstate commerce"
Answering the absurd charge OF the
Republican chairman, Mr.. Mccormick
remark that he either possesses Just
enough learning to misquote" or he
is following the example Of Sidney
Smith, who preferred not to read a
book before reviewing it, for fear it
would prejudice him"
Mr. Mccormick suggests that Mr..
Wilcox read the law, and invites his
attention to Doctor McKelway's state
ment. and is embraced in the
statement of the Democratic chair
man. Mr.. Mccormick cOntinues
"If the Republican national chair
man had wanted to know the truth
about the child labor bill he might
have communicated with General Sec
retary Owen R. Loveioy. of the ma
tional child labor committee. or Pro-
fessor Parkinson. Of Columbia Uni
versity, or Senator Cummins. OF
Iowa. a Republican. but Chairman
Wilcox was not seeking the truth;
he was bent upon disappearing
one of the greatest pieces of humaDe
legislation ever enacted by the Amer
lean Congress"
Chairman Mccormick attacks Sem
ators Penrose and Oliver. the only two
Republicans in the Senate who voted
against the bill. by asking II they op-
posed the bill so vigorously because
OF the alleged "ioker" and IL such
sincere friends of the children as
Cummins. Borah, Kenyon, Norris,
Clapp and La Toilette favored the
Senate bill on account of the joker"
It is said in Washington that the
cotton mills OF North Carolina and
other Southern States are booking or
ders a year in advance of delivery,
and could not avail themselves Of the
"ioker" If it we're found to be eff
fective.
