FIRES SWEEP CITY
Dublin, April %. - Amid roaring
flames that threatened to sweep this
city of more than half million in
habitants British troops and Sim
Fem rebels engaged in a furious
hand-to-hand struggle until an early
hour yesterday.
The rebels, routed by the govern
ment troops, scurTied away as dawn
broke upon the blackened ruins of
Sim Fem strOngholds in the heart
of Dublin. In their flight they were
moved down by maxims and rifle fire
and lost heavily. 1t is now estimated
that more than 100 persons were
killed or are missing as the result of
the four days of street fighting.
There followed a battle that for
picturesque features eclipsed any,
thing seen on the European war
fronts. Blasts of smoke and flame
hid from sight the buildings in the
hands of the Sim Feiners, rolling
away moment later to disclose
groups of men, standing bolt upright
on the roofs, firing down on the gov
eminent troops below.
1t was reckless work. The figures
of the Sim Feiners limned against
the background of darkness by the |
Ieaping tongues of fame made them |
easy targets. One after another of |

eminent troops.
The dead include many civilians
picked off by the Sim Fein snipers
and some women and children. It |
has been ascertained that the rebel |
forces are composed entirely of Sim
Fein adherents. Both Lady Wimborn |
and Lady Anderson are safe.

disappeared and are believed to have
been hidden away by rebel sympa-
thizers who feared they would be
executed.
According to best information here
today, the rebels still hold the gen
eral postofice, large biscuit factory
near Dublin castle and Four Courts,
area situated between the castle and
Royal Dublin barracks. Fires are
still burning in several parts of city.
At Killarney, Enniscorthy, Corey,
CIonmel and in certain sections of
County Galway disturbances have
occurred, but other portions of Ire
land remain calm, it is officially
stated.
Sim Fein agents who attempted to
start outbreaks in Cork and other
Irish cities were promptly arrested,
A force of troops left England yes

BAPTIST REVIVAL SERVICES
POUlTER LEADS SINGING.

Beginning tomorrow. "Wednesday
Rev. d. II. Cooper the pastor Of Broad
way Baptist church will preach a ser
les of evangelistic sermons in his
church.
The services of Professor +. H.<
Poulter, evangelistic singer, has been
secured to conduct the singing ser
vices. Prof Poulter has had nine
years experience in organizing and
training choirs and in leading them
in revival services. Besides having
had excellent training in music both
before and during his career as an
evangelistic singer. He proposes to
organize two distinct choirs for use in
the services here. Besides the regu-
lar choir Of the church One of them
will be a mems chorus. the other
junior chorus to be composed Of the
young boys and girls Of the city.
These choruses will be organized to-
night at the Baptist church and every
singer in the city is invited to attend
tonight and assist in the organization
and singing.
The papers where Prof. Poulter has
been assisting in revival services have
many nice things to say Of him as
evidenced by this one from the
Jacksboro (Texas) Gazette:
Mr.. F. II. Poulter. director of the
chorus. excels any evangelistic singer
ever in Jacksboro. He is a musician
as well as a revival singer. and he
thoroughly understands his work as a
director. Having a thorough under
standing Of his work and an attrac-
tive manner in directing accounts very
largely for his success in making the
music a great attraction to the meet
ing. His solos are also very much
enjoyed

BIG PROJECT FOR AROMoRE.
AND KEEPING MUM"

The Chamber of Commerce rooms
were filled last night with an enthus-
iastic crowd of boosters who took up
the matter of a project for Ardmore
"sub rosa" with explicit directions to
the newspapers mot to publish a,
line"
As an illustration however, of the
acute interest manifested, $4,000 was
raised in the room toward the eX-
pense attached to the project which if
carried out will mean a large invest
ment for Ardmore.
A committee of nine was appointed
to take hold and that committee is in
session this afternoon.
The elimination of the telephone
section was discussed and the Pioneer
Telephone company was requested to
hold a conference with the Ardmore
Railway company with view to
coupling up with them in the project
so far as the tearing up of the street
is concerned. There is a possibility
of us having to double track Main
street" said manager /. NJ. Putnam
significantly land perhaps two
birds can be killed with one
stone" The suggestion was acted on
and the conference will be held.
No statement was given out as the
status of the interurban project but
good roads were again discussed. Bar
ney Feagin said that every man pres
ent should pledge himself to talk
macadamized roads every day and
comprehensive plans be worked out
without delay"
On a motion of l. NJ. Putnam and
recommended by Tom Dunn who
brought the matter up, Oklahoma City
was endorsed for the Federal Farm
Loan Bank and the resolution was
ordered sent to Oklahoma City imme-
diately.
S. A. Apple president of the Cham
Der of Commerce announced that the
new board of directors of that body
was busy on its plans for the ensuing
year. that committees were being Sc
ected and that big grand rally of
that organization would be held at an
early date.

OF news that has ever come over the
wire since the war began over two
years ago, was written by Herbert
Bayard Swope and is sent out under
copywright of the New York World.
Mr.. Swope is a fellow passenger on
the Frederik VIII with Ambassador
Gerard who is coming home from Ger
many on his first trip in the past three
years. While the Ambassador is not
allowed to speak to the public of
international relations every ear mark
of this statement from Swope is that
it was read and approved by the
American Ambassador before it was
given to the press.
The article states plainly that Mr..
Gerard is not coming for peace, he is
not coming to assist the United States
in using its good offices to restore
peace in Europe, but is coming for the
purpose of notifying America that
German American relations are under
deep cloud, that the submarine war
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1916-10-10

fare is becoming a greater menace,
that encouraged by what the Ger
mans term as a reputation of the
Wilson policies they will begin dog
ged warfare that will not stop at any
thing. Germany is less hopeful on
account of the odds against it, but it
is more determined because loss
would mean the undoing and dismem-
berment of the empire. In other
words it is a fight for existance and
all international rules Of civilized
warfare bid fair 10 be brushed aside
in the interest Of gaining victory on
the part Of the Germans.
1t is further stated that funds are
being raised in Germany to assist in
the Hughes campaign in America.
While it is true that the Hughes fac
ton in this country will condemn the
statements made as being inspired
by politics. But on the other hand
these days have duties too high for
the souls Of men to lead them TO di-
rect such efforts merely to influence
voters in an election. If Gerard had
been a man of such shallowness he
would never have attained to the po-
sition he occupies.
1t looks even now that the subma-
rine warfare is on, fighting is being
carried on almost in the shadow of
the statue of Liberty on the Ameri-
can shore. Our commerce and our
passengers are being driven from the
seas and these results are the har-
vest of the American political system
of using the hammer on the policies
of the man who is guiding the affairs
of the nation in the most trying time
the people have ever embarked upon.
It does smack of treason to villify and
to criticise and TO create the impress
sion that America Is so hopelessly di.
vided that It could not be formi-
dable enemy if fight were to be
p revoked.
