 Power of Law.

New York, April 25.-Telegrams protesting. against recent lynchings in Louisiana and Tennessee were made public here today by John R.

 Eleven negroes have been lynched without trial in Louisiana since Amer ica entered the war, the messages cite, and five in Tennessee, three of the Tennessee victims having been burned and tortured at the stake before death.

MORRISON STILL TRYING TO PLACE
 ATLAS LICENSE

Withdrawal of the application for transfer of his license to Barnum ave- nue near the town line of Stratford by J. E. Morrison disposes of a hear ing assigned for today by the County Commissioners in which the town of Stratford was to be represented as a remonstrant. The license is owned by J. E. Morrison, but is not now working.
 The Morrison license has had a checkered 0areer. Originally granted to James M. Atlas for the Atlas hotel in Fairfield avenue it was met with a remonstrance against that location. Then it was transferred to the Thomas P. Taylor O., and it's 1oca- tion was transferred to the office safe of that concern. Another transfer took place when Morrison purchased it, and Morrison has since tried to remove it from the Taylor safe and place it in operation.
 Morrison's first attempt was for a location at Main street and Union Square, but a remonstranae by the financial interests and the Y. M. c. A, and another saloon keeper, caused him to withdraw that application be fore the hearing was completed. His attempt to transfer it near the Strat- ford town line was promptly objected to by the town of Straford, and a hearing assigned for this morning. His withdrawal returns the license to the safe of the Taylor Co. until he finds an acceptable place
 Under the laws relating to granting licenses a no-hcense town has a rlght to remonstrate against the focatlon oI a new saloon near the town poroers'

HUNS WILL NOT STEER CLEAR OF
 SHIPS OF GRAIN

Amsterdam, April 25 - Germany has given no positive guarantee that ships from America sailing within the next three months with grain for Switzerland will not be sunk, it is shown by semi official telegram from Berlin today.
 The German government, says the message, has not left the Swiss gov ernment in doubt that although an or der has been sent to the submarines to spare vessels carrying grain from America for the Swiss population, it is impossible to guarantee their safety before three months has elapsed, for technical reasons, as only after that time can it be certain that all German warships abroad will have received the order. Referring to the fact that such vessels will sail under the American flag, the telegram says:
 Should any German war vessel not receive such order and sink one of these vessels, the responsibility will not fall on the German government, but on the President of the United States"
