LONDON, Ems. With Lord Hard.
inge presiding the Royal Commission
of Inquiry into the Irish revolt has
begun work.
Sir Matthew Nathan, who resigned
as Under Secretary for Ireland, was
first heard He. read long state
ment In which he set forth that the
government had advance information
that an attempt would re made to
land arms in Ireland from German
submarines; also that rifles had been
purchased from Irish soldiers on home
leave, while others had been taken
into the country in passengers bag
sage.
Lord Hardinge asked the witness
why no action had been taken to pre-
vent drilling under arms.
We deferred because we were
afraid to enforce the act, Sir Mat
they answered. I'VE deferred practi-
cally for political purposes"
The witness admitted that he knew
women were, being trained to look
after wounded men, and that sham
fights for the taking of Dublin Castle
were being held.
Nathan defended the failure to dis
arm the volunteers on the ground that
such action mights have alienated lie
sympathies Of many loyal volunteers.
Tie Royal Irish Gonstabulary was
considered strong enough to cope with
disorders.
Lord SIardinge said he assumed
from the testimony that it had been
decided not to interfere, unless there
should, be an actual outbreak.
Sir Matthew answered: 1T was
thodght that foreible interference
would certainly lead to bloodshed, aud
that il affairs were let alone they
might blow out without bloodshed.
Considerable sums of money had
been coming from America, the funds
being used to buy arms and print Sc
ditious papers and leaflets. 1t is es-
timated that 916,000 tsS0,000 was
received from America and paid into
Dublin banks from the middle of Sep

ing team on OaCufuay
- last, VII en- Manager
Fitzgerald brought the
- Starkels down deter
mined to avenge the defeat inflicted
on their last appearance here. And
right here we rise to remark that
the Starkels presented a strangely
altered lineup, having acquired
such redoubtable players as Boo
and Swanman who were with the
Simonets last year. However, we
were soundly walloped through the
lusty hitting of the Starkels, aided
by numerous passes, stupid base run
ming, and other misplays on the
part of the home team. The day
was ideal for baseball, and fair
sprinkling of town people mingled
with the crowd. 1t was pretty
contest until the sixth-neither side
scoring after the first-then the
visitors commenced a bombardment
which eliminated in the eighth
when they scored seven runs. -Four
pitchers appeared for the M. S. P.'s
but were unequal to the occasion.
Story of the game by innings:
FIRST
Starkels:-H. Forceia out, Carlt
to Viii. Rowland singled and
scored when Swanman's hard in
field tap to Lee was juggled and
followed by a wild throw to first.
Zorn struck out. Swanman moved
UP on Boo's hit and both scored
when Arndt doubled. Wand went
in to pitch for the M. S. P.'s and
ended the inning by tanning H.
Forceia. Three runs.
M. S. P.'s:-Wil whitfield. Della
took four wide ones and went to
second on Rivard's balk. Page
slammed hot one which Ri
ward fumbled and was safe, Della
going to third and making a bluff
to run home. The bluff was called
and Della was caught easily ten feet
off the base. Page took second on
the play. Lew got on when w.
Forceia juggled his grounder. Both
runners moved up on a wild pitch
and scored on Carlt's hit. The lat
ter was out when he tried to stretch
it into double. Two runs.
SECOND
Starkels:-Byle singled. Rivard
famed. H. Forceia drew ticket
to first. Rowland whitfield. Like
wise Swanman. No runs.
M. S. P.'s:-Was's fly was good
for a single but no more and he was
out trying for second. Shields let
the ball dust him off and ambled to
fret, then stole second and third
while Wand and Con'y were struck
out. No runs.
Starkels:-Zorn famed. So did
Boo. Arndt out on tap to Will
No runs.
M. P.'s-Wil "caseyed." Dels
out on a fly to center. Page flew
out to left. No runs.

acts all the business for
his boarders. He knows
ldN6A the foremen of the adja-
~ cent factories and will
- find the men work; he
cashes the pay checks, and sends
the money away for his boariers.
Usually he is connected with some
small law office and 40 all legal
business, in case of accidents or
arrests, goes through his hands.
If we consider that in all his ac-
tions the immigrant is entirely de-
pendent on his boarding boss, so we
can imagine how little he knows
about the world around him and the
institutions of the country to which
he came. And as for the boss" it
is profitable for him to keep his
boarders in a condition of depen-
dency while paying their board, and
after the small balance of his wages
which he saves, there is not much
money left for clothes, and for that
reason we see the foreigner in the
same scanty clothes on working as
well as holidays. He knows it is
not proper to appear in public in
such apparel and therefore he does
not mix, at least, for the first year
on Sundays with the crowd in pub
lie parks and streets. His only re-
creation is a talk with his country
men on the nearest vacant lot or in
the lowest class corner saloon. And
in this way are spent the few free
hours after work.
If we consider the conditions un-
der which the alien is living while
working in the city and the condi-
tions while he is working on lail-
road gang, or in camp of any kind =,
we have to admit that his surround
ings will not only not improve the
immigrant, but after awhile deprive
him of any sense for comfort, clean
liness and human dignity.
But somebody will exclaim:
why is the immigrant living un-
der such conditions? Why is he
not able to raise himself above this
degrading life?" Why? Because
his wages are mostly so small, that
while he is saving a part of them
he cannot afford a better mode of
living. The only way to better
these conditions is TO close foreign
boarding houses; to make laws
which clearly prescribe how much
air space is necessary for one hu-
man being and forbid that sleeping
places be not crowded with more
persons than can be held COM
fortably.
When the immigrant gets tired of
his boarding boss, he will leave the
house and his place of work, which
of course he obtained with the help
of the boss, and will then try to get
job through an employment Office.
You will find these Offices through
out the whole country. In big let
ters, on black. red and yellow signs,
they announce to the ignorant what
seems to be the prosperity of Amer
lea. These signs promise you
good, long job; steady work. short
hours, good wages, good board.
These Offices ship men east and
west, north and south, on any day
and at any time. In spite of the
fact that you may read in the papers
that In that part of the country to
which you will be shipped. there is
no work at all.
Good wages and steady work."
reads the sign, and that is what the
immigrant wants. He will enter
the employment Office and buy
ticket for job. This ticket is
practical" legal document. 1t en-
titles the bearer to pay from one to
five dollars for the job, and spend
few dollars on railroad fare. On
the ticket is not mentioned the

COMMENT

Van worked splendidly until the
sixth when he commenced to tire
rapidly. Better luck next time,
Van.
Opportunities to score were
thrown away by poor judgment on
the bases by the home team.
On the other hand, six bases on
balls resulted in three runs for the
visitors.
Again a member of the M. S. P.'s
was made happy when Warden
Reed took Carlt from the lineup
and sped him on the parole special.
Gee! let's al join the team!
Arndt of the Starkels is some
wielder of the bludgeon. Two
home runs and a double ought to
satisfy any ball player.
Warden Reed watched the game
from the scorers bench and pulled
hard for the home team to win.

Guide from the presiding genius of

We were properly rebuked by

the batting order when the players
