TEN KILLED

Paris, June 6.-Within the last few
months, ten citizens have been killed
in Ireland by soldiers or constables,
under, circumstances found by coron-
ers' iuries to have been wilful murder.
This charge is made in the report on
observations made in Ireland by Frank
P. Walsh, Michael J. Ryan, and Ed-
ward S. Dunn, delegates of the Irish
Society in the U. S. The reports were
sent to President Wilson along with
the demand that the peace conference
investigate the Irish question. Charges
are made that hundreds Of men and
women were put in prison without any
specific accusation being made against
them

TERMS MAY BE MODIFIED
(By The Associated Press)

There is every evidence that the
leading figures of the peace confer
ence in Paris are endeavoring to has
ten the delivery of the allied reply to
Germany's COULTER proposals to the
terms of peace. According to advices
positive instructions have been given
by the council Of four to all commit
tees working on the reply to- complete
their work by Monday. If this order
is carried out, it is probable the reply
will be framed early in the week and
will be presented to the enemy delega-
tion. From reports coming from Paris
it seems there is d. growing sentiment
among the council Of four that al
terations must be made in the treaty,
but iii what particular the terms will
be modified is not indicated.
French official circles are expect
ing the Germans to refuse to sign the
terms, and, it is pointed out that I'm
asmuch as delay would aid the, Ger
mans, speedy conclusion Of. the qego..
tiations is sought. A more hopeful
sentiment is said to prevail in Berlin.
