CHAPLAIN HELD
IN IRELAND FOR
SED|TI0N FREED
Evidence at CourtmartiaI
Bears Out British Tyranny
Charges Made by Sim
FeinerS.

| London, Nov. 2o.-Father Thomas
| J. O'Donnell, the Australian army
chaplain who has been held a mill
tary prisoner for more than a month
in Ireland and in the London tower
on a charge of sedition, has been
acquitted by court martial, the evil
dence showing that he is in poor
health, having been held incommuni-
cado most of the time of his i'm
prisonment and guarded by bayonets
while confined to a dirty, frigid
room.
The only evidence against him
was that of a jealous young English
lieutenant. Stuart Chambers. who
asserted the chaplain had made dis
paraging remarks about the king
and favored revolution in Ireland in
conversation at hotel in Killarney.
The case had been watched with
extreme interest throughout Britain
because it led to the first court mar
tial of its kind in England, the Sim
Feiners asserting it was typical of
the tyranny of the army rule in ire
land, where, they say, wholesale ar
rests are made, often on the fimsi-
est pretexts, prisoners being punched
either without trial. or after biased
trials after long and undue delays.
The evidence disclosed that
complete and fair investigation
would have exonerated O'Donnell
of the sedition charge forthwith and

fluctuations
Of HOG PRICES
Unprecedented
Fear Expressed Of Organized
Effort to Discourage Live
Stock Production by Ger
tain interests.

That there is a plan on foot to
discourage production of hogs by
certain interests Is the opinion of
several leaders of the live stock in
dustry. at the local yards. This
opinion has been brought out by
the peculiar activities in the hog
market the past week when the price
dropped nearly 81 hundred.
There is no natural reason why
the hog market should have suffer-
ed drop of nearly 81, which was
the condition Wednesday of this
week." said c. A. Mallory of the
Bowles Commission Co. Saturday.
THE usual normal run of hogs to
the local market prevailed all the
week and canvass of the various Of
fees in the Exchange building seems
to bear out the statement that some
influence is being brought to bear to
bring prices down with no other APP
parent reason than to discourage
production.
This is the first time in the his
tory of the hog market on the
South Side that there has been so
many fluctuations in hog prices dur
ing a single week and there seemed
to be concerted action among GER
tain interests to bring prices down
so that hog raisers would become
disguised and refuse to divert their
energies to hog raising and the gov
eminent would do we'll to make a
thorough investigation"

for its truth has been attested by

I'VE received word of this re-
markable hunting trip from Gun
merry Sergt. t. A. Tieken, who wrote
to friends here about it. He and
Sergt p. A. Fortney and Pvt. Ralph
Baker got a furlough and a hunting
pass and went into the mountains
about 100 miles from Pekin and
about so miles from a railroad.
"There they found a paradise for
hunters. They hired all the guides
they needed for few coppers a
day. The first shot they fired
brought down bustard, which
weighed Is pounds and was as good
eating as turkey. Pheasants were
found in abundance as we'll as wild
pigeon.
: But it was the deer they were
after, and these were SO plentiful
that they only took advantage of
the hard shots for fear of being
