cRiTiclslNG CONGRESS.

1t Ia now aulhoritatively settled that
any American has perfect right to
criticise congress to his hearts con
tent.
From the number of Americans who
have lately been engaged In this en-
crossing pastime, 1t might be doubted
whether the right had ever been call
ed Ia question, AS matter Of fact,
congress Las always imagined that II
had the power to punish for con
tempt any person whose criticism got
under its legislative hide. The house
OF representatives undertook last year
to apply the supposed right in the
case OF United States District Attor-
ney Marshall, Of New York City, be.
cause OF truculent remarks he had
made before house committee in crit
icism OF the pro-German activities OF
certain congressman.
The Supreme Court has now happily
decided that there Is no such crime In
tile American category as congression'
al lese.majeste. Congress has no
power, express or implied, to punish
aRysssilical comment that falls short
OF physical destruction Of the right
OF the house to carry Oh Ms proceed

HAWK BREAKS WINDOW GLASS
furnishing Bird Attempts to Feast on
Parrot.

Green Bay. Wis.-Polly, parrot, the
companion Of Mrs. William Anderson,
was preening herself in the sunshine
at the window Of the front room when
hawk, sWooping down, crashed
through Tie window glass.
Before the bleeding bird Of prey could
reach the parrot with its talons Polly
scared out through the same hole and
perched in an apple tree Polly set up
frightened chatter that brought her
mistress. who couldn't imagine how
she gct out of the room. Mrs. Ander-
son hurried ont and to the window,
where she saw the havoc and the great
hawk Topping about the floor, sprink-
ling blood all over her erstwhile inn
maculate parlor.
When Mrs. Anderson and a neishbor
had pinned it down and chopped off its
head they found it three feet five
inches from tip to tip. The bird was
thin and seemed nearly starved, prob
ably, they thought, because of the deep
snow.

Relief Pours in For
Thousands of Sufferers
Rr ASsncintci PrcSs

Mattoon, Ills, May 2S.-American
sympathy manifested itself in sub
stautial fashion to-day for the plight
of Charleston and Mattoon, twin
victims of the tornado which swept
Central Illinois on Saturday, leaving
behind it death and ruin.
Scores of communities throughout
Illinois, Indiana and neighboring
states RESPONDED to the appeals of
the stricken cities with cars of food
stuffs, blankets and cots and assur-
ances were received that more was
available if necessary. Organized
relief for the destitute, of whom
there are about 5000 in the two
towns, was begun to-day.
So far as was known to-day the
tornado cost ninety-one lives and
resulted in injuries to about 600 per-
sons in Coles county. reports from
the farming districts indicating that
the casualties were heaviest in the
two cities. The farmers, however,
reported heavy property losses in the
destruction of buildings, the death
of stock and damage to growing
crops. Available estimates placed
the damage in the county at between
S2.5OO,OO0 and $3,000,0C0, of which
S1,250,000 was in Mattoon and
about $4,000 in Charleston.

NeW Belgian Army Makes
Own Supplies and Holds
Line Against Germans

Headquarters Belgian Artillery
Establishment, May 2S. - Here,
where the Belgian army is making
it's own cannon, its own rifles, it's
own shells, it's own transport wa
gons, its own saddles and harness,
one can appreciate how other out
standing features of the war have
unduly obscured the Belgian military
effort since the battles of 1914.
The Belgian army had six divi-
sions of infantry and two divisions of
cavalry left to hold line of approx
imately eighteen miles, or just about
four men to the yard of front; a
front where particular vigilance is
required because of the German tac-
tics of constant trial attacks. No
part of the allies line is more close
ly watched and explored by the ene-
my's patrols. A weak spot anywhere
would provoke an immediate often
sive.
The Belgian army IS new in nearly
every feature. OF the 100000 men
in the field and $4,000 men who gar
risoned the forts, 10000 fell into the
hands of Germans at Liege, Namur
and in the retreat; 10000 more took
refuge in Holland and were interned;
$4,000 were lost on the User in ad-
dition to more than 10000 killed and
wounded in the battles of Liege,

BULLISH ENTHUSIASM
SENDS UP STOCKS
Steel Continues Climb For New Records Declines Lin
tied to Few of Less Important Issues Leading
Rails Firm to Strong

New York, May 2S.-(Wall Street,
The stock market opened with a
continuance of the bullish enthu-
siasm which characterized last
weeks enormous operations. Mod
crate declines were limited to a few
of the less important issues. U. S.
Steel broke all records at the new
level of 1876, slight fraction over
its previous maximum and point
above last Saturdays final quotation.
Gains of l to 8 points were made
by Crucible Steel, Maxwell, Stude-
baker and General Motors, Texas
Company and Mexican Petroleum,
General Electric. Baldwin Locomo-
tive, Airbral<e, International Paper
and Ohio Gas. Leading rails were
firm to strong.
New York, May 2S.-There was q
tremendous outpouring of steel on
its new rise, the stock reacting l X
points in the first hour. Sales for
that period were little less than
100000 shares. other industrials
and equipments registered similar
setbacks on the heavy realizing for
profits. Rails were exempt from
this tendency, however, materially
increasing initial gains under lead
of Pacifics st. Paul and the high
grade coalers. Motors, oils and gas
held firmly. Another selling move
ment in the second hour was direct
ed mainly against metals, although
Steel yielded to 1924 Irregular
rallies ensued at noon. Bonds were
firm.
