Williams, one of the men arrested at
2l06 Cass street, the night the flats

court following the raid and his ar
rest He immediately appealed the
case to the district court and Judge
Redick discharged him without even
going to trial.
City Prosecutor Murray was press
ent to represent the city and express

discharged. He didn't seem to think
the city had much of case but he
didn't want to run any risk of criti-
cism. He told Judge Redick so.
"Well, I'll take the>responsibility
because l think there is no reason,
under the law for prosecuting this
young man.. especially since he and
Miss Reed are married"

arresting him. He said his wife still

VETS SLOW-UP
CONSIDERATION
OFPROHIBITION
Announce Determination to
Keep on Fighting Until
Whole Question Is Settled.

Washington, July 8.-The house,
by adopting, 235 to 50, a special rule
for immediate consideration of pro-
hibition enforcement legislation, in
dicated sufficient votes tojenact the
measure without the II hours of
general debate allotted members
anxious to speak for and against its
passage.
But despite this big majority and
the promise by Chairman Volstead
of the judiciary committee that all
of the time set aside might not be
used, indications were that a vote
on the bill itself will not be reached
this week. Every effort was made
Tuesday by anti-prohi ibitionists to
delay consideration by claims of no
quorum, demands for rolls and fore
ing the reading, word by word, of
the printed text of the bill.
All these attempts at delay were
accepted with good grace by the
majority until Representative Sab
both, Illinois, and Representative
Caldwell, New York, both demo-
Gratis, brought protest from mem.
bers. who declared they were en-
deavoring by dilatory tactics to
slow up the proceedings. Less than
two of the II hours for debate had
been used when the house ad-
journed, to resume consideration
Thursday, Wednesday being calen->
dar day.
No attempt was made to split the
bill so as to take out the first part
relating solely to enforcement OF
wartime prohibition with a view to
its early passage. This, however,
will be done later, and while men,
bers fighting for modification or re-
peal of the wartime act are hope
lessly in the minority, they an
nounced their determination to keep
on fighting until the whole question
of enforcement legislation was set
tied in the house.

The two delegates were given an

Later they were Mr.. De Valera's
guests at luncheon.
Case Being Ignored.
"We are satisfied that our mis-
sion accomplished most, if not air
that we set out tol achieve" Mr. ,
Dunno said.
1.-THE case of Ireland before the
worlds peace conference was being
deliberately ignored prior to our
arrival in Paris.
upon our insistence. however.
that it must be considered, the
American commission made repre-
sentations to the British prime
minister urging that it should re-
>ceive prompt consideration. The
British prime minister thcreupon
expressed desire to Meet US in
conference and pending the fixing
of date for this conference. gave
us diplomatic passports to visit
Ireland expressing desire that we
should visit all portions of that
country, including BelfastA
Forced Open Discussion.
"We went to Ireland and thus
were able to give to President Viii
son, the American Commission and
to the world a true unvarnished
story of English atrocities and mill
tary misrule in Ireland. We COM
PEELED the castle authorities in
Dublin and finally the whole

military occupation and oppression.
I'VE compelled them to admit
that the right of trial by jury, the
right of habeas corpus and all the
other safeguards usually THROWN
around people in civilized coun-
tries had been overthrown in Ire
land and that British domination
was sustained only by the presence
of an enormous army OF occupation
equipped with all the mufderous
weapons of actual modern warfare.
"We are confident of the out
come. Eighty per cent of the peo-
pie of ireland demand a republic
and are endeavoring 10 function Is
a republic and its people will not be
content with anything but repub-
lie"
