TO PROBE REPORTS OF
 JEWISH POGROMS IN POLAND

New York, Nov. 28-To determine the truth or falsity of stories of Jew ish pogroms in Poland, the Polish Ma tional Department and the Polish National Defence Committee united today in a formal demand on the American and allied governments to dispatch to Poland special commits sion, in which the Jewish and F<ish immigration in the United States shall have membership, to Investigate the existing conditions and report re- suits.
 Because of their belief that reports of anti-Semetic outbreaks are certain to react against the cause Of the new 1 independent and united Polish state at the peace table, the proposition now is advanced for an investigation | by an impartial inter allied and Amer | ican commission The roles assert l that representatives of the Jewish or l ganizatiens in the United States al- ready have petitiened the allied gov l ernments that Poland be virtually de- nied a seat at 4he peace table. or an opportunity to state it's case before l the tribunal and that tha situation. is l critical In this emergency the rep resentatives of the Polish organiza- l tiouS united.
 John F. Snaulski and Dr. B. Kola- kowski, representing the TWO P'oIisf organizations. explained that they ha6 asked for the commission with ever! confidence that it would brand af false the stories circulated.

SPECIAL COMMITTEE
 FOR LABOR PROBLEMS

Washington, Nov S-Reorganiza- tion of the department of labor from Q war to a peace basis is to be worked out by a special committee appointed today by Secretary Wilson. Louis F. Post, assistant secretary of labor, is chairman of the c/nmittee and the other members are the heads of the various departmental bureaus.
 "An indications are," said a state ment tonight by the department, that the department of lator. which was tremendously expanded to meet the eXigencies of the war, >ll play a great part in the reconstruction period and a number of the special war ser vices now in existence will be capable of handling various phases of the de- mobilization problem. Already the United States employment service is replacing soldiers and civilian war workers in peace empiuyments and gathering data on local labor condi- 1 tions upon which demobfiization of war industry will be largely conting- ent.
 i The department now has eight l services and two boards created dur
 ing the war. These are: United States
 Employment Service. the Women in Industry Service. Training and Dilu-
 tion, Workinf Conditions, Inspection
 and Investigation, Information and Education, Labor Adjustment and In- l dustraial Housing, the National War Labor Conference Board and the War Labor Labor Policies Board"

Bear Hunt in Central | Park, New York City
An Assistant Keeper of the Zoo Dropped Dead in the Excitement.

New York, Nov. 2S.-An impromp- tu bear hunt in Central Park was the most thrilling event of Thanksgiving Day in New York. In the excitement of the chase an assistant keeper of the zoo dropped dead of heart disease, patrolman had large chunk bit ten out of his right calf and soldier had part of thumb nipped of while pursuing Brdin up tree.
 There is every reason to believe the bear would have escaped had it not inadvertently got in the path. of an automobile. 1t was swageering across a road in the direction of the top most tree in the park when the motor colfded with it. The car was con siderably damaged and the cubs spirit was broken.
 Bruin had only strength enough left to reach the top Of q small tree the eighth it had climbed since the chase started, and there it was lassoed by mounted patrolman who once was a cowboy. Humbled, the animal was dragged back to the cage in the zoe from which it had fled.
 The cub was mascot of the Twen- ty-Second UGIied States Infantry un- til it became too boisterous for the barracks.

Herr Bah Secretary of Social Policy in the Ebert Ministry Announces That Several Generals Have Attempted to Dissolve the Soldiers and Workmens Councils.

the systematic sequestration or de-
 struction of machinery in the French
 factories n the Rriey valley region is given by the correspondent at Briey Of Le journal.
 All stocks of merchandise, iron ore,
 cast iron and steel were first requi-
 sitioned by German inspectors and en-
 gneers, the correspondent says and then fifteen officerds and one hundred men arrived to organize the destruc- tion of the plants. German soldiers visited the region and picked out cer-
 tain pieces of machinery which they placed in own tents, and these were
 shipped to Germany.
 After these selections had been made | the demolition of blast furnaces, steam engines, boilers, tools, geariEgs and electric light fixtures not connected with the actual working of the mines,
 was carried out, the employees of the
 plants being compelled to aid the Ger
 mans in their destination.
 In the meantime the exploitation of the mines was kept in full swing
 Prisoners to the number of 15,000 we're put to work without hardly any rest and under terrible discipline. The out. put of the mines was larger than that
 in peace time and, the correspondent adds, this enabled the central powers | to hold out for four years.
 | When the time for the final allied at- tack approached the Germans con
 Centrated 500 heavy guns anG 7,00C

Sacramento, Calif., Nov 28.-The sentence of Thomas J. Mooney, sen fenced to be hanged on December 13 for the deaths of ten persons killed by bomb explosio min San Francisco during preparedness parade, July, 1916, was commuted by Governor w D. Stephens tonight to imprisonment for life.
 Court action to save Mooney from the gallows was exhausted by the prisoner, the supreme court of the United States having recently decided it could not review the case.
 Threats of national strike in case the governor did not intervene had been made in various parts of the country and some time ago it was re- ported that President Wilson had written the governor to see that Moo ney suffered no injustice. The trial judge had also requested a new trial for Mooney.
 Governor Stephens statement an nouncing the communication said that in considering the case he had had before him "the urgent appeal of the president of the United States that grant communication"
 Originally, in January of this year, I received a letter from the president asking me If it would not be possible to postpone the executio nof Mooney until he could be tried upon one of tEe other indictments against him. 'Inasmuch as an appeal already 1 had been taken to the supreme couri
 of California. which appeal itself act
 ed as a stay of the execution, there
 was at that time no occasion for ac-
 tion on my part. I take it that the president was not correctly informed
 as to the status of the case"

 called on to act previously. the gov ernor said:

 MESSAGE TO CONGRESS

Washington, Nov 2S-With all ar engagements completed for his trip to Europe next week, President Wilson worked for. several hours today on his message to congress. which. many of ficials believe, will contain the first announcement of the delegation se- lected to attend the peace conference. In some quarters the impression still prevails that the names of the dele gates would be made known this week but it seemed more probable that thNse would be announced first in the ad- dress the president will read before the joint session Monday CT Tuesday. The president is expected to discuss with Secretary McAdoo tomorrow the appointment of the latter's successor as head of the treasury to take office immediately. As MT. McAdoo will continue in charge of the railroads until the end of the year it is under stood there has been less haste in naming a director general, although the appointment will be announced be- fore the presidents departure from l Washington.

Only Three EnvOystO l. Peace Conference?
Lansing, House and Henry White, Former Ambassador to France and Italy.

Washington, Nov 2S.-The impress sion is growing among those who have talked with President Wilson about the peace conference that the Ameri- can delegation will be limited to three members, and speculation over the personnel has about narrowed down to these names:
 Robert Lansing, secretary Of state.
 Henry White, ambassador to France and to Italy under the Mckinley ad ministration
 Colonel p. M House
 There has been no announcement and there may be none before the president addresses congress next week, but it was said tonight that White House callers had been given to understand that these men would be the American envoys. It also was indicated very definitely that reports of the president having decided to sit af the peace table himself as a dele gate were untrue He goes to take part in the great preliminary meet l ings of the heads of the associated governments and to see the formal conferences under way, hut not to l serve as a delegate
 In addition to the accredited dele gates there will be a large party, in | cluding besides the military. naval 1 diplomatic and economic experts, oth- CT specialists in the multitudinous questions to be dealt with. Among | them will be men of high rank, pre- pared to participate in discussions that will take place outside of the for. nal conference and in position below only the accredited delegates, who, i is assumed. will take ambassadoria rank
 The exact time of the president sailing for Europe apparently still ii unknown to anyone except the presi- ident himself. He is e1pSeted to leav' the day after fe addresses the nev session of congress. beginning Mon day, and tie address usually is de livered the second day of the session

 at the door. three others covered their victims with revolvers and the fifth went through their pockets.
