IRISH LEADER
 PAYS VISIT TO
 GOV, OFFICIALS

Washington, April 25-T. O'Connor, the Irish Nationalist leader who has been on tour of the West, was in Washington today to lay be- fore government officials the Irish attitude toward the British conscrip- ton plan. He said in Chicago Irish men had urged him to come.
 With them as with myself he said, hostility to the present con- scription proposal is induced, I need scarcely say, not by any desire to weaken in any way the arm of Eng land or her allies in the vigorous pros secution of the war; but by the con- viction that the way to attain the re- sule we all want to see is to give Ire land at once her long overdue parlia- ment which then would be in posi- tion to throw Ireland's full strength into the struggle for freedom"

The case was started If years ago and the cause of the action was certain transactions between the htigants which took place in Kenosha, Wis, in 1883. Since the case has been started the original htigants have died. Once the case was taken to the United States Supreme Court for a decision upon certain claims. Twice it has been before the Supreme Court of this state and once in the United States district court. It has been be- ! fore the state Superior Court twice and the verdict is the first time d jury has passed on the merits of tho issues involved It is probable that the defendants will take the case to the supreme court, as the action has been bitterly fought for 14 years and the administrators of the lIt1ganeS havc shown a disposition to context every feature of the case. The actual court expenses in the suit amounted to nearly $1, GOO.

MISSIONARIES
 ARE RELEASED BY THE GERMANS

Washington, April 25.-The Uru- guayan mission to France which re- gently was intercepted by a German submarine operating off the Canary Islands, according to latest reports re- ceived here, was released, but it is not known under what conditions
 The mission, on the Spanish steamer Infanta Isabel, was halted near the end of it's journey. One report was that the members were taken from the ship Reports received here do not indicate whether they actually wre taken on the submarine, but es- tabnsh that they finally were allowed to proceed.
 It was the halting of the mission that caused Uruguay to call on Ger many for an explanation and gave in- | dications of a determination to regard the interference as an act of war.

USED SUGAR AS BAIT

WASHINGTON, March S. - The Trade Commission has issued com plaint charging Sears-Roebuck with using unfair methods of competition It is charged that the firm circulat- ed catalogues claiming that the goods of it's competitors were inferior.
 It is also charged that the firm advertised sugar for sale at loss on condition that certain other quan- titles of groceries would be purchas- ed, from which the profits on the combined sales made up for the low price charged for sugar The com mission charges that this action was for the purpose of lessening compe- tition and tending to the creation of a monopoly.
