PRESIDENT WILSON
HEARS IRISH PLEA
Announces His Attitude is
Unchanged.

Paris, April 18.-On the question OF
peace conference, President Wilson
stands by the decision he announced
in New York on the night he sailed
on his second trip to France.
This was learned following the
presidents conference with Il delega-
ton of American friends Of Ireland
The delegation was composed Of
Michael J. Ryan. of Philadelphia :;
Frank P Walsh, of Kansas City, and
Edward F. Dunno. of Chicago. They
urged the president TO have the peace
conference hear fully the claims Of
Ireland as a republic.
The great interest taken in this
question in the United States was
pointed out. Copies of resolutions
adopted at American mass meetings
urging that the Irish claims be grant
ed, were given to the president.
Mr.. Walsh was received courteously
and received lengthy hearing He
has been personal friend of Presi,
dent Wilson for years.
President Wilson received a delega-
tion speaking in behalf of Ireland on
the evening before his departure from
New York in March. An account of
the interview published at the time
said the president explained he per-
sonally was in accord with the aSpir-
ations of the Irish as voiced by Judge
GOff, of New York, but the situation
at the peace conference was delicate
and complicated, and he would have
to use his best judgment when the
Irish question came up in Paris as to
how to meet it. During the interview,
when Judge Golf asked him if he
would present to the conference the
right of Ireland TO determine the form
Of government under which she shall
live, the president said he did not
believe he should be called on TO an
swer such question.

Secretary Of the Navy Daniels in
statement issued following publica-

cept the award of a distinguished

Of Daniels action in "blue-penciling'
some OF Sims recommendation for

In ordering a complete report of
all recommendations made by Sims
and others, together with complete
memoranda of the action Of himself
and members Of the naval board on
such recommendations, Secretary
Daniels declared that when the data
is made public, he had no doubt the
American public would approve the

tion Of that principle.''

war. u 1t became my duty,
at the close of this war, imposed by

ing of medals and distinctions and I
resolved that action should be gov
erned by fixed principles and all in
certain classes should be recognized
alike. | was also resolved that most
distinguished honors should be award
ed those who were in most peril and
who suffered most and rendered the
most distinguished service. The

WASHINGTON STIRRED.

Washington, Dec "a. Official
Washington, particularly those in the
navy department, are stirred as they
have never been stirred before as the
result OF publication of Admiral Sims
charges the Secretary of the Navy
Daniels revised the list of recon-
for honors and awarded
high honors to men who Sims asserts
do not deserve them.
While promises Of full investiga-
tions by committees from the house
and senate are being made, Secretary
rations that he is preparing a state
ment containing information showing
all recommendations for awards by
admirals, captains and other COM
manding officers, and the action OF
the naval board upon all such ques-
tions, and it is considered barely pos
sible that the publication of the rec
concentrations and the reasons why
they were denied by Daniels may in
clude some interesting observations
on the real reasons underlying such
charges in Admiral Sims recon-
mendations.
Daniels promises that his state
ment will include a complete report
of all actions taken by him and that
"as soon as the data is ready it Will
be given to the public
The allegations of Sims and the
defense of the secretary have again
split the navy into two factions in
which the lines are said to be sharply
drawn as during the famous fight
between the Sampson and the Sch1ey
factions at the close OF the Spanish
American war.
