D 'LEARY TRYING
TQSTRENCTHEN
FRAME UP CLAIM


New York, June 21.--Documentary
evidence intended to strengthen Jere-
miah O'Learys claim that the federal
authorities intended to frame" him
in connection with activities of enemy
agents prior to his flight from justice
last month, was introduced by the de-
fense today at the trial of his brother,
John J. O'Leary, who is alleged to
have aided in the escape.
This evidence was presented at the
termination of Jeremiah's two days
and Earl B. Barnes, assistant district
attorney. II consisted of a letter pur-
porting to have been written by Harry
A. Wise New York lawyer, to John
j. O'Leary, announcing his decision to
withdraw from Jeremiah O'Leary s
defense against accusations of pub
fishing seditious magazine articles,
because, the letter read, the Officers
of our government are so bitter if !
should defend your brother in this
case they would probably treat me as
they have treated General Wood and
refuse to accept my offer of service
The letter explained that Wise had
had military training and that he in
tended to offer his services to the
government. He said a commission
might be refused him if he did not
withdraw.
The letter was admitted with the
understanding that Mr.. Wise would be
permitted to explain it during a later
session.

HUNGARY IN DIRE

London, June 21.--In many prov

mier Tsza declared in Il speech to the
Hungarian parliament yesterday 6c-
cording to Budapest telegram for
warded by the Exchange Telegraph
correspondent at Amsterdam.
Germany must be convinced, added
the former premier that Hungary's

hold out until the new harvest.
Copenhagen, June 21.-The situa-

the risk of still further exciting the
working people. In the latter event,
the newspaper declares, railway com

revolution would break out.

been some alienation of the food sit

LEMBERG, Galicia, Dec. 2.-(By the
Associated ss.)-Demberg capital
of the Austrian crown lands of Galicia,
is resuming its normal aspect and is
again in the hands of the Poles, after
months of vicissitudes and fighting
against the Ruthenians. Order is being
kept among the Jewish sympathizers

The beautiful city of 100000 inhabi-

Jews, and 20 per cent Ruthenians, was
threatened with destruction many
times, but escaped with the burning of
one wing of the diet building and the
blowing up of the postoffice, the rail-
way station, and a few dozen houses.
Only few persons were killed, though
many were wounded, most of them be-
ing civilians.
The political situation of the Poles
is uncertain.
Chaos prevails, and it cannot yet be
said that a Polish government exists,

TWO INCHES SHORTER

Sergeant William Bruce of Winni-

great surprise yesterday when he
alghted from a tram at Lynn and
walked down the station platform.
Those who saw him have probably no

They knew not the facts concerning
his life so there was no reason why
his appearance should excite them.
But when he got to the home of his
sister, Mrs. w. c. Bartlett OF 10 Essex
street, if was a different story. She
couldn't believe her eyes when she saw
her brother walk up the steps of her
home. The sight of him did not greatly
affect her, for she knew he was com
ing. What amazed her was the fact
that he walked as any other soldier
would, straight, and with agile step.
She greeted him at the threshold
with wonder in her eyes, then ushered
him and demanded an explanation.
You informed US you were in
hospital in London" she exclaimed ex-
citedly, with both arms and legs Grip
pied. We never expected to see you
walk again. She looked at his arms,

And your arms-We never thought
we would see you using them again.
We mourned that you would be a help
less cripple for life. What miracle has
made you well?"
He laughed. He had also never ex-
pected to have the use of his limbs
again, he told her. 1t was really and
truly a miracle that the use of them
had been restored to him.
Then followed his explanation. He
had enlisted with the Canadians on
August 5, 1914, the day after Great
Britain had entered the war. At Ypres,
in August of 1915, he had been in the
thickest of the fighting. Shrapnel shat
tered the bones of his legs near both
ankles and of his wrists. They had
taken him to a London hospital. For a
