PEACE PREDICTED FOR

BY United Press.
NEW YORK. Aug. 2S.-lhe great
war should end Today according
TO prediction OF st. Malachi, an
Irish Monk. who lived about l2oo
a. D.
ST Malachi is said TO have pre-
dicted the date OF the start OF me
present war and the date OF hou-
mania's entry into the Struggle.
This IT, 81. Malachfs prophecy
As found on an original manu-
script now in the Civil Museum
al Como. Italy:
'sWhen the irst number shall
meet he n.n.h and when the two
shall be united with the first and
six.h 1ai6l. during the sixth
month OF the year august, ac-
coriing TO the calendar and after
two lines four and two times ten
days shall have passed august
2S) the new races which drew
their name from Romu'us (Rou-
manial shall rise and shall ally
themselves with powerful nat 'ons.
"Then the fierce beast who for
three wears and one mon h has
been nlling all the earth with
blood with horror and with car
mage. now surrounded smitien
from al sides and roaring in vain.
viii seek whom he may devour,
but shall not find him
There shall be new battles
while new moons shall wax and
wane thirteen times. The fifth
day after the sun leaves the sign
OF the lion. the beast shall die a
fearful death. A virgin whose
name contains two iotas. two
alphas. q tau. and a lambda
Qlaiial shall crush his head and
Inc Latin people shall share his
spoils"
Astronomers consider the
prophecy particularly wonderful
because it is based on astron-
omical facts unknown at the time

APPROPRIATIONS BY, WAR
 SESSION OF CONGRESS
Have Placed at the Disposal of the
 Administration Ss17,c00, ,o00,oo0

Washington, Oct. 5.-Since congress convened in it's extraordinary war ses- sion last April, and up to today, it has placed at the disposal of the ad- ministration seventeen billions of dol lars and has authorized contracts for almost two and a half billions more. Most of the money was for war pur- poses, including seven billions for loans to the allies.
 The appropria tions committee through their chairmen, Senator Mar tin and Representative Fitzgerald, made the figures public today. coupling with them the declaration that cen gress had done it's work in furnishing the money for the war very effective ly. MT. Fitzgerald announced that he could not estimate the appropriations of the next session of congress for war expenditures until the various government departments submit their estimates.
 Tt will depend" he said. "to a very considerable extent upon the number of men in the military forces of the United States. It would be a rash man who would undertake at this time to forecast whether 1t would be neces- sary to call an. additional 500, ,000 or OOO 1000 or 100000 men, or whether the number of men already called will be sufficient"

is worthy of our history but a de- feat of militarism."
 'Our present situation is a mere development of the disclosure of our real situation in the world which Mc- Kinley recognized and made prepara- tion to meet" continued MT. Taft.
 Mckinley began new era in the life of the United States. His sue cessors in office followed him in this. The contrast between the situation of the country in WashinGton's time, when the policy of isolation was adopted, and our present position an swers every objection to recognizing tn epart we must play in the family of nations
 Tn Washington's day we were but four million of people on the eastern rope as we are today In speed of transportation. Now we have instant communication of intelligence. We are a continent wide, with a great past This is what Mckinley saw. This is what has brought us into the war. This is what has made it neces- sary for us to win the war as an ally make, in President Wilson's words, the world safe for dem ocracy' We en- countered the conquering militaristic spirit of Germany in the Philippines and we found there the English sym pathy which prevented a breach of our relations at that time.
 "The itching of the military caste for expansion by force has now in volved all Europe in a vortex of war and destruction. It has murdered American citizens on the high seas where they had a right to be, in orSzer to secure Germany the unembarrassed use of the submarine as a means of conquering England and France.
 "The eXigency of Germany and her disregard of decency and honor and international law have entangled and involved us. as might have been am tieipated. in the war itself. It is well that it is so, for with Germany sue cessful in this war, had the United States been able to stay out, we would have found ourselves In continued friction with Germany until she thought the opportunity had come for her to strike"
 Miss Helen Mckinley. sister of the martyred president, unveiled the 12- foot statue. of President Mckinley which is set in the court of the me morial building. The dedicatory eX- ercises were ia charge of the G. A. R.
 Other speakers included Myron T. Herrick, former ambassador to France; George R. Cortelycu, who was priv ate secretary to President Mckinley Rev. c. A. Manchester. who was Mo Kinley's pastor; Joe Mitchell Chapple of Boston, and Joseph G. Butler, Jr, Youngstown, steel manufacturer. and president of the Mckinley Birthplace Memorial Association.
 Senators Harding and Pomerene and Philander c. Knox, who had been in- vited to speak, could not attend be- cause of work incidental to the clos ing hours of congress.

WOMAN RUN OVER BY AN AUTO-TRUCk As She Was Stepping Of a Trolley Car
 In Waterbury.

Waterbury, Conn, Oct 5.-Mrs. Fan ny Spencer of Northfleld was run over by a nauto- truck on Watertown road this afternoon and so severely injured that she died in the Waterbury hospi- ral forty minutes later. Mrs. Spen- Ger was stepping off a trolley car at Carter avenue when the truck came along and it Is said both wheels pass ed over her. All her ribs were brok- en as we'll as her left collar bone, left arm and left leg. The Waterbury po- lice secured the number of the truck the driver having left soon after the accident, and three officers have gone to Bethlehem to arrest him. Mrs, Spencer was on a visit to her mother, Mrs. Laura Dutton of Waterbury.
 John Bauba, driver of the Zrudk was arrested at his home in Bethlehem to- night, and lidged in the 1ty prison awaiting the oroner's ation.

maining before the adjournment hour for replies to be made by Senator Ke1- logg of Minnesota and possibly others. In executive session late today the senate adopted without debate a form al resolution empowering a privileges and elections subcommittee to proceed
 with investigation of the La Toilette speech at St. Paul. The inquiry is limited solely to the accuracy of the reported speech and to substantiation of Senator La Fo1lette's statements of fact therein. The report will be made when congress conveneS in December.
 A report from the committee against investigation of like disloyalty ref1ec- tions upon Senator Stone of Missouri. chairman of the senate foreign rela- tions committee also was similarly adopted. The report declared that communications filed inputing disloy alty to the Missouri senator were not sufficient basis for inquiry.
 Upon receipt of an accurate copy promised today by Senator La Toilette of his St. Paul speech, the investiga- tion committee of five members, head ed by Senator Pomerene, plans to be- gin it's work next week. The inquiry into the speech promises to be brief and probably without necessity for the sub committees going to St. Paul. Ar engagements were made today for be- ginning the. inquiry into the accuracy of copies of the St. Paul speech.
