Omaha Attorneys
Report on Results
OF Work for State

Lincoln, Dec. 23.-(Special. 1.-The
fact that Omaha has furnished q
great deal of the attention which the
attorney generals Office has been
giving the legal side of the states
affairs has prompted Attorney Gen.
eral Davis to employ at different
times three Omaha attorneys, A. C..
Munger, T. ]. Mcclure and George
w. Pratt, to look after the busines IS
of the state.
This hss~been necessary because
of liquor violations, the Omaha riot,
food prohteering Investigations and
the like. Mr.. Munger has been look
ing after the food hearings while
the two other attorneys have been
in charge of liquor prosecutions.
"A report made to the attorney
generals Office shows that the three
have handled AZ felony cases and
secured IA convictions. Four ac-
cused persons were dismissed by
the county attorney, seven acquitted
and 2f cases are still pending. There
are also 126 liquor cases pending
in Douglas county, appealed from
the police court to the district court
and it has been impossible to get a
room in which they can be tried.

Irish Press SCOTS
At Home Rule Bill:
Principles Hateful

Dublin, Dec. 23.-In commenting
upon the speech made by Premier
Lloyd George in the House of COM
mons yesterday, during which the
premier outlined the provisions of
the proposed Irish home rule bill,
the Freeman's Journal says Mr..
Lloyd George "in the presence of
the American ambassador, but in
the absence of every representative
of the majority of the Irish people,
explained to the House his panacea
for the ills of Ireland"
Even the few Irish nationalist
members who have survived the
prime minister's past treacheries and
betrayals absented themselves" the
newspaper continued. They prob
ably had a forecast that their ges-
ture of contempt would be warmly
approved by the whole Irish nation
and race. AS matter of fact, they
were merely obeying the command
of their dead leader, given when he
and they withrew from the House
upon the first declaration of the
prime minister's intention to per-
manently partition their country"
The Irish Times saws that for
many reasons "some good. some bad,
some wise and some mad" three
quarters of the Irish people will re-
ject the bill.
Its principle is hateful alike to
the unionists and nationalsts," the
newspaper saws.

CRITICIZE
HOME RULE PLAN
oFLL0YD GEORGE
Proposals Intended to Mislead
Opinion in United States,
Sim Fein Founder
Says. -

London, Dec. 24-The Daily Her
aid, labor organ, quotes opinions on
the governments Irish home rule
plan. Arthur Griffith. founder Of the
Sim Fein organization and acting
president of the Irish republic, said:
There is nothing for Irishmen to
discuss. The premier's proposals
are not intended to be operative, but
are made to affect and mislead opin-
ion in the United States"
George Russell, the Irish poet, de-
clared:
"There is nothing in the proposals
calculated to produce reconciliation
and there is no reason why the Sim
Fein should cease working for the
destruction of the British empire.
Under Lloyd Georges proposals
Great Britain would retain complete
control over taxation, the trade pol
icy and economic development OF
ireland, which means that Ireland
would be given, not self-govern-
ment, but certain administrative
powers"
William O'Brien, secretary of the
Irish labor party and trade union
congress, said: "The plan is I'M
worthy Of serious consideration. 1t

ROBBERY NOW IS
THOUGHT MOTIVE
Of LEAD MURDER
Can Found Containing Part Of
Money Withdrawn From
Banks Day of
Death.

Deadwood, S. D., Dec. 23.-(Spe-
eial Telegram. IAN important de-
velopment, in connection with the
recent tragic death of Mrs. John
Nemi of Lead, whose partially
burned body was found in the FIRE
box of the furnace at her home, is
the finding by detective of A,535
in cash in the Nemi home.
The money was concealed in a
coffee can and the can wrapped in
an old wooden sock. The can was
uncovered in a box of rubbish in
storeroom directly off the bedroom
occupied by the murdered woman
on the night of her death.
1t has been learned that on Nb-
vember q Mrs. Nemi Withdrew from
Lead and Newell banks $4,000. What
became of the difference between
this sum and the amount found in
the coffee can, and what motive
prompted Mrs. Nemi to withdraw
this sum of money from the banks,
now is pulling those working on
the case. That some one murdered
the woman and secured the money
that is missing seems certain.

INVESTIGATION OF
COAL INDUSTRY
Executive of Association Issues
Statement Replying to
Attorney General.

Washington, Dec. 23.-Investiga-
ton of the coal industry is "courted"
by the operators, it was asserted.
The executive committee OF the
Bituminous Coal Operators asso-
citation issued a statement replying
to the declaration last night of At
torney General Palmer that the gov
eminent would mot assume that the
operators will break faith" and init
mating that ways would be found
to keep faith in the coal strike set
Element.
The executive committees state
ment announced that general meet
ing of mine owners from all parts
of the United States had been sum-
moned to consider the situation aris-
ing from settlement of the strike.
Court Full Investigation.
"The coal operators have always
courted a full investigation. of the
industry" the executive committees
statement said. "They welcome one
now. They are intellectually Gag
err to have come out of this con-
troversy a program that will be con-
structive and that will insure indus
trial peace.
"The miners and the operators
have interpreted President Wilson's
letter of December E, in different
ways.
Because of this fact and the
rapid changes in the situation dur
ing the past two weeks it has been
impossible to keep the coal oper-
ators fully advised. The executive
committee therefore feels that it is
imperative to call a meeting of the
representatives of the operators
from the several coal fields, extend
ing from Pennsylvania to as far west
as the state Of Washington. This
meeting will be held as soon as pos
sible.
I'm the meantime steps have al
ready been taken to gather such
facts and statistics as may be neces-
sary for full presentation of the
operators case.
Will Abide by Commission.
| Terre Haute, Ind, Dec. 23.-In a
statement declaring that the attitude
of the coal operators of the central
competitive field has not been
changed by any person in authority
since they agreed to plan similar
70 that proposed by President Will
son for settling the miners wage
controversy, Phil H. Penna, spokes-
man for the operators in the wage
negotiations of the past few months,
late today indicated that the opera
tors will abide by the decisions of
the commission appointed by the
president to arbitrate prices and
wages. -

December % or 80, it has not yet
been determined which, Cole and

hearing by Governor McKelvie on
their application for clemency.
The hearing will be held at the
penitentiary and will probably be
semi-public. Authorities feel that
crowd which might gather just
for curiosity should not be per-
mitted to listen, but it is expected
that anyone really interested will
not be denied admission. This will,
however, be determined before the

The state has in its possession
about $50 of these trucks so that the
