ridiculous 1t Will only be necessary to
draw Ex-Governor Glynn's speech upon
him and ask him how Grant settled
the V1rginius case when Spanish
commandant shot the captain, thirty
six Of the crew and sixteen Of the pas
sengers how Harrison settled the Bal
timore case when junior officer was
killed and sixteen sailors wounded In
the streets of Valparaiso; how Lincoln
settled the burning Of ST. Adams; how
the Alabama claims were settled; how
Van Buren, settled the Carolina case
how John Adams treated the $500 vio-
lations Of the neutrality law by
France; how Washington dealt with
the 400 cases where France and Eng
land seized our ships.
In all these cases, the answer Is
that the presidents then in Office did
not go to war; they settled them by
negotiations, "just as the president Of
the United States is trying to do to-
day."
Covers All important Issues.
While the chief merit Of Governor
Glynn's speech lies in the unanswer-
able argument advanced In support OF
the presidents position on neutrality,
II covered all important issues In

ed the remedial measures enacted dur

tariff legislation, antitrust legislation,
and currency reform, and It did not
omit preparedness. II is compen-

as witnesses all Of the prominent Re-

presidents; he showed how, from
Washington down, the nations most

President Wilson has with violations
of our nations rights. He showed
how nearly all Of the great nations
Of Europe have at times interfered

U-Boat Fired Twenty-two
Shells Into Italian Ship
BY Associated Press

New York. May s. - Details of the
sinking of the Italian steamship Josef
Agost F'oherczeg, formerly an Aus
trian vessel, by a German submarine
on April 23, when $50 miles off Lands
End, England, and the rescue of the
crew from open boats bv the Nor
wegian steamship Pythia were related
by officers of the Pythla on the latter's
arrival here to-day from London.
The Josef Agost, according to the
Pytha's officers, was first sighted
about two miles ahead and at about
the same time a submarine was seen.
A torpedo was fired but missed the
Italian ship and the crew then took 10
the boats. The submarine then fired
22 shells into the steamer before she
went down. The Pythia rescued the
men, 32 in all, and putting back. went
as near as she could with safety to
the English coast, signaled to shore
and the crew were landed in fishing
boats. The captain of the Josef Agost
the last man to leave his ship, went
insane and was taken ashore under
guard to prevent him from commit
ting suicide.

Cabinet Members Indicate
That Germany's Assurances
Will Probably Be Accepted
BY Associated Press

Washington, May 5. - While final
decision on the attitude of the Amer
lean government waits on the official
text some cabinet members indicated
that the German assurances probably
would be accepted and that diplomatic
relations would not be broken unless
the order to submarine commanders
was violated and American lives en-
dangered.
The Cabinet was in session two
hours and half-the longest meet
ing held for several months.
Members of the cabinet were un "a.
communicative, all saying that no
the official test was placed before
President Wilson.
The private view of officials ap-
parently was that the new orders to
submarine commanders met the de-
mands of the United States unless an
Interpretation were placed on them to
lead to an attack on merchant vessels
armed for defensive purposes. The
general tenor of the German note,
however. was considered unsatisfac-
tory. There was some disposition
among the Presidents advisers to be-
lieve no drastic steps will be taken
unless the new orders to submarine
commanders are violated or modified.
AS the Cabinet members left the
White House several indicated their
view that the United States would
have to wait and see whether the new
orders to submarine commanders
were carried out.

NGtiOnalists Will Ask For
Disarmament of Ireland
BY associated Press s..

London, May 5. - The Irish Ma
tionalist members of the House of
Commons will ask the government to
secure the complete disarmament of
ireland. The Nationalist volunteers
are willing to hand in their arms il
the measure is made general. That
the situation in Ireland is still serious
is shown by letters from the bishop
of Dublin, published in this mornings
papers in which he writes:
Martial law should not be too
quickly withdrawn from Dublin. The
danger which has been much greater
than the government will admit is by
no means past Many armed rebels
still are at large in Dublin and the
danger of another uprising can only
be averted by the most strict meas
ures. This is not the time for
amnesties or pardons. 1t is a time
for swift, stern punishment"

ing State convention. He said: The
State C. E. convention will meet in the
Chestnut street hall, this city, in July.
That will not be a political convention

other churches. Nine denominations
are interested in the convention work.
Three thousand delegates are expected

CRONIN'S CASE IS
NOT DETERMINED
Philadelphia Was Suspended
Fortnight Ago According
to Reports

Reports that John c. Cronin, of
Philadelphia, long prominent in labor
matters in Philadelphia, had been dis
missed or asked to resign as a men,
ber of the State Industrial Board could
not be confirmed here to-day, but it
was admitted at the office of the Gov
ernor that Cronin's case was being
considered.
For some time there have been ru-
mors that the State authorities were
dissatisfied with the manner in which
Cronin was handling work assigned
to him, especially on standards and
some two weeks ago he was placed in
what amounts to state of suspension
as far as connection with the State
government is concerned. Yesterday
he was given a hearing on the matter
by the Governor, but no one present
would discuss it then or to-day. In
quiries regarding the matter We're
met with the statement that there
was nothing to say at present and in
qurers were referred to Mr.. Cronin.
Governor Brumbaugh was accom-
panied to Pittsburgh to-day by Sec
retary William II. Ball. Before leav-
ing, the Governor received the latest
information from Pittsburgh regard
ing the strike situation.

DELAY, EVASION AND SUSPICION
HAS MARKED ALL DIPLOMATIC
EXCHANGES DURING LAST YEAR

President Wilson declined to close the
Lusitania settlement while the other
issue was pending. and there the whole
matter rested while the German sub
marine warfare was continued and new
cases involving loss of American lives
piled up.
Finally the accumulation of evidence
assumed such proportions with the de-
struction of the Sussex that President
Wilson. convinced that assurances
given in the Lusitania and Arabic cases
were being violated, dispatched an
other note to Germany and went be-
fore Congress reviewing the entire
situation from the beginning and made
this declaration:
Must Abandon Warfare
Il have deemed 1t my duty to say
to the Imperial German government
that If 1t Is still it's purpose to prose-
cute relentless and indiscriminate war
fare, the government of the United
States Is at last forced to the conclu-
sion that there is but one course 1t
can pursue; and that. unless the I'm
perial government should now. imme-
diately, declare and effect an abandon
ment of its present methods. of war
fare against passenger and freight
carrying vessels, this government can
have no choice but to sever diplomatic
relations altogether"

grave view of the German note was
reflected in the demoralized tone of
the stock market at the opening to-
day of active issues, particularly those
comprising the war group, breaking
3 to points, with 10 for Bethlehem
Steel.
The tenor of the German reply was
generally known before the market
opened, the news tickers and other
agencies having published many OF
its essential features. There was a
very large attendance of members on
the floor of the Exchange and the
offices of brokers were crowded with
apprehensive customers. f
Commission houses received count
less queries by telegraph and tele-
phone from out OF town points.
Brokers had numerous selling
orders and the course of the market
at the opening denoted little support.
The more specific declines included
Crucible Steel six points, Lackawanna,
Steel 4; Studebaker, An; Anaconda.
31a; United States Smelling 615 and
numerous one to two point declines
elsewhere.
