BRITISH TROOPS
BECOME UNRULY
IN REST CAMPS
Soldiers and Public Demand
Speeding Up Of Process
of OemobiIization of
Military Forces.

London, Jan. 5.-An official state
ment concerning disturbances among
troops at rest camps, arising from
complaints over the delay in demo-
bilization, was issued by the War
office tonight. 1t says:
THE trouble which has arisen in
the past two days among troops re-
turning to France from leave in Eng
land has been safely settled after
a long conference between the COM
manding officer and representatives
of the men,"
1t is revealed also in a long
explanation issued by the war office
today that trouble similar to that
with the troops at Folkestone oc-
Cured at Dover, but On a smaller
scale. and it is stated that as the
men were acting under a genuine
misunderstanding no disciplinary
measures will be adopted.
A large staff Of officials has gone
to Folkestone and Dover to investi-
gate individual cases of discomfort
and to demobilize men who are en-
titled to their discharge from the
army. The war Office admits that
the affair seemed at first likely to
lead to serious consequences, but
says that it is now in the course Of
satisfactory arrangement.
The past week has witnessed a
strong and general demand from the
most Influential British newspapers,
regardless of politics, for prompt
meeting of the peace congress and
prompt action to stem the tide OF
chaos which is threatening Germany
because of the introduction of BOZ
shevism by way of the border states.
There is a dawning recognition that
if anarchy seizes central Europe the
decisions of the peace congress in
drawing boundaries and levying in.
IDENTITIES can be enforced only
through military control by the
allies, otherwise becoming merely
scraps of paper"
The chief desire of the British
people is to have the army demobi-
lized as quickly as possible. The
labor elements in particular oppose
the retention of a large conscripted
army for the policing of foreign
territories with the possibility Of be-
ing drawn into conflicts. The Sum
day Observer gives warning in line
with growing belief that the most
urgent business now before the con-
quering nations is to restore the
conquered nations and all of central
and southeastern Europe to a
status of order and normal living
or something as near to this as
possible.

farmer, who lived OH an island in

below Onawa. After wiping out the
Johnson family Barnes killed HIM
self.
Authorities of Monona county
have recalled, since the discovery of
the six bodies Saturday morning,
that Barnes wife and daughter died
under singular circumstances in their
home about year ago. At the time
of Mrs. Barnes death speculation
Was rife among neighbors, many of
whom openly expressed the opinion
the woman met with foul play.
Suspicion on Second Death.
The mans 17-year-old daughter,
who kept house for her father for
snort while following her mothers
death, ended her own life, sup
posedly, by drinking poison. Sus-
picion grew stronger following the
mysterious death of the daughter.
The authorities conducted all invests
CATION. but the case was dropped
without the suspect being investi-
gated by the grand jury.
Barnes is known to have been a
desperate character" said Sheriff
Harlan. "The finger of suspicion
has been pointed at him for year
now. and there are many who be-
lieve him directly responsible for the
deaths of his wife and daughter.
However, the sheriff l succeeded in
office the first of the year invesu-
gated the matter at the time, but
was unable to obtain sufficient in
formation to warrant Barnes arrest.

matter, and | would not be at all
surprised if Barnes was connected
with number of other crimes which
have baffled the Monona county au-
thorities."

Barnes is known to have been a
suitor of Mrs. Mary Jones, daugh-
ter of Wilbur Johnson, and one of
the victims. He is said to have been
infatuated with the girl at the time
of his wife's death. Neighbors re-
ported violent quarrels between
Barnes and his wife, following cur
rent gossip connecting Barnes name
with that of the girl. 1t was fol-
lowing one of these quarrels that
Mrs. Barnes is said to have died
under mysterious circumstances. The
coroner's jury, after hearing the evil
dcnce, returned an open verdict.
The girl is known to have become
respondent, following the death of
her mother. She stayed at home
and steadily refused to encourage

Soldiers Who Lost Eyes
Can Be Self Supporting
Sir Arthur Pearson, Himself
Sight|ess, Says Blind Are
Capable Of All Sorts
of Work.

New York, Jan. 5.-Practically
every soldier who has lost his sight
because of the war may be rehabil-
tated in great measure and be-
come an asset rather than a drag
upon the world that he has helped
to save, said Sir Arthur Pearson,
noted philanthropist, who, blind
himself, is chairman OF the Blinded
Soldiers Care committee of Eng
land, in telling today of the pur-
pose of his visit to this country.
Sir Arthur, who recently arrived
here, will act in an advisory capac-
ity for the Red Cross in the care of
American blinded soldiers, and will
go soon to the Red Cross home for
the blind in Baltimore.
I'VE always try to put a man
back to work in his original occu-
patton and he generally succeeds"
Sir Arthur declared.
1T is not as hard as one thinks.
When you lose one faculty you use
another. If you can't see you be-
gin to use your wits"
If blinded man is put to work
along lines that not only make him
self-supporting but self-rehant and
independent, he will in most instances
do better work than he did before
losing his sight" Sir Arthur said.
Blind men were adaptable to all
sorts of work, and in his opinion
better in some lines than those with
the faculty Of sight. This was true
even in professions that seem to
depend upon sight, such as archi-
tects and civil engineering, where
he had known men to make good af-
ter becoming blind.
Blind people as typists are un-
excelled," he continued, "and we

Probably half a dozen senators
are here, while not over two dozen

this evening.
Most of the interest appears to be
in the organization of. the house,
many feeling that Good of Nemaha

close. Jennison of Clay and Wild

it does not appear to be as strong
as the others.

Hoagland of North Platte and

generally felt that Saunders of

not put i'll an appearance and no
one appears to be able to speak for
him.
The most that is known is that
he is a candidate and that eventual

or Hoagland with Neal holding the
balance of power.
