Urges Public Trial
OF Sim Feiners

LONDON. May 25.-The bulk of
newspaper opinion in London accents
the statement issued by the Press Bu-
reau as convincing proof of the guilt of
the Sim Fein leaders and of the nroh-
able guilty knowledge by their follow
ers OF the progress of the conspiracy
Accordingly, the governments action
is indorsed as wholly justified. some
regret is expressed that evidence of the
latest incidents cannot be divuleed as
fully as in the matter of Sir Roger
Easements plot, but this is not held tn
lnvalidate the case against anv of the
men under arrest.
THE Daily Telegraph" thinks the ex-
planation will satisfy any reasonable
person, adding:
"The proof is complete, not onlv com
plete but continuous The GOV
eernment did their duty aud public opin-
ion will now demand that the rms.
leaders of the conspiracy be tried and
punished without delay, and that thara
shall be no more pitiful surrender ~

actually landed on April II and was
arrested
"The. new rising depended largely
upon the landing of munitions from
submarines and there ia evidence to
show that it was planned to follow
successful German offensive in the
West and was to take place at a time
when Great Britain would be presum-
ably stripped of troops.
Rebel Plans Seized
According to documents found on
his person, de Valera had worked out
in great detail the constitution Of his
rebel army. He hoped to be able to
muster 100000 trained men. There Is
evidence that German munitions actu-
ally had been shipped on submarines
from Cuxhaven in the beginning Oh
May and that for some time German
submarines have been busy off the west
coast of Ireland on other errands than
the destruction of Allied shipping.
at will thus be seen that the nego-
tiations between the executive of the
Sim Fein organization and Germany
have been virtually continuous for
three and half years. At first a sec
tion of Irish Americans was the inter
medary for most of the discussions,
but since Americas entrance into the
war comm uNiCdIiOn WIFI tle S''S'i.
has tended to be more direct. A second
rising in Ireland was planned for last
year, and the scheme broke down only
because Germany was unable to seni
troops.
"This year plans for another rising
in connection with the German often
sive on the Western front were matur-
ing and a new shipment of arms from
Germany was imminent.
"An important feature of every plan
was the establishment of submarine
bases in Ireland to menace the shipping
of all nations.
ain the circumstances no other
course was open to the government II
useless bloodshed was to be avolded
and its duty to its allies fulfilled but to
intern the authors and abettors of this
criminal intrigue"

u. S. Plans Arrest
OF Several Leading
Irish-Americans

WASHINGTON, May 25. = More
evidence than that disclosed In the
British official statement OF the
close connection between the irish
Sim Fein and German influence is
in the hands of the British and
American governments, it was stat
ed officially here to-day. Arrests
are to be made soon in this coun-
try and possibly additional arrests
in Ireland.
A number of prominent Irish
Americans, including several here
tofore known as Irish patriots, are
under surveillance. In most cases,
it was said, arrests will be made on
technical charges of seditious ut
terances, with most of the facts
concealed until the trial.
Department or Justice officials
to-day pointed to the disappearance
of Jeremiah O'Leary, an Irish
American, former editor of the sup
pressed publication "Bull" and or
ganizcr Of the American Truth So
ciety, on the eve last week of his
trial on charges Of publishing Sc
ditious mattor, as strong indica-
that O'Leary and others are in
formed of other charges which
might be brought against them.

Britain Has Not
Decided on Trial
OF Sim Feir1ers
Arthur S. Draper
Especial Cable to The Tribune }


LONDON, May ga considerable
chorus is now being raised for an early
trial of the Sim Fein prisoners, but
the government has not yet indicated
when or how it intends to handle the
alleged conspirators.
Much interest in Ireland centres in
the governments recruiting policy and
various suggestions have been made
for the raising of volunteers. Liberal
opinion is represented by this extract
from The Evening Star"
There is no sympathy in this coun-
with any organization that is found
guilty of conspiring with Germany.
The thing is so abhorent to us all that
the urgency of bringing these men to
trial is self-evident. If they are guilty.
let us know it and let us let the world
know it. But let us see that thew get
fair play in the trial"
The Westminster Gazette" saws:
Whatever be the policy of the gov
ernnent, delay is fatal to any irish
administration. You cannot ride a
spirited. restive horse by jerks and
ment and pulling him back Violently ntI
on MS launches the next. If the
chosen policy is to go forward WITH
Home Rule and the reply is to be by
voluntary enlistment-which is tho
only natural inference from the sinpu-
lar proclamation issued last Saturday.
then let that policy be given a fair
trial. '
III reconciliation is the object. it
will not meet the case to give ireland
something What English statesmen
think ought to be sufficient for her.
1t must be something which she her
self Will accept, and II the present gov
eminent cannot and will not give her

Failure to accept discipline and an
inability to understand the absolute
necessity of organization. were the two
chief faults, the Russian soldier
woman found to exist in women.
Nine. Botchkereva said that one of
the first things she planned to do on
reaching England was to set to work
to raise $4,000 for the relief of the
women of Her battalion who are still
confined to hospitals in Russia. She is
accompanied by her sister and is under
