WAS A PIECE OF
BASE BRUTALITY

New York, May 3.-The news thai
four of the leaders Of the Irish rebel
lion had been executed caused a sensa.
ton in Irish circles here today. Prom.
inent Irishmen in sympathy with the
rebellion declared they were shocked
by the action that had been taken
Robert E. Ford, editor of the Irish
World, said:
1.-THE shooting of Pearse, provi-
sional president Of the Irish repub-
lie, and his associates will serve
only to make the war between Ire
land and England more bitter. The
Irish revolution is being conducted
according to the rules Of civilized
warfare. Pearse was a prisoner Of
war and should have been treated
as such. To shoot him down was
piece of base brutality and will
no doubt cause reprisaIs by the
people of Ireland. Pearse, like
Washington, represented people
throwing off the yoke Of England.
Washington would have been shot
down like Pearse had he fallen into
the hands Of the English"

cording to the tentative arrangement
made with Gen. Scott the hunting

more than that period of time.
On assurances from Gen. Carranza
that the bandits are dispersed the
northward movement Of American
troops will attain full speed and it will

Meantime it is pointed out there win be

although the formality Of another con-

the Mexican and American troops are

FLANK GERMANS
TO TAKE kOvEL
my Associated Prcss.)

NY Associated Press.1
PETROGRAD. August 22.-The be-
lief seems to prevail here that the
discovery Of a series of strong Ger
man Notifications protecting Kovel
from the east led the Russian staff to
base its hopes on taking the city by
strong flank attacks, which now are
developing. This is considered to
account for the desperate German at
tacks in the region of Lake Nobel,
where the Teutons are trying to pre-
vent the Russian occupation of the
marshy land south of the Stokhod
which would constitute serious
menace to the German left flank
whose base is Kovel, and would prove
valuable vantage point to Gen.
kaledines in the pressure he is ex-
erting from the south.
The strengthening of the Austrian
forces in the Carpathians has checked
the Russian movement, but the Rus
slams have been able to hold all
positions recently won.
