weight IltIe at jersey CITY.
New York, Sept. 17.-One wicked
smash from the right mitt of Johnny
Kilbane ruined the hope of the vet
eran Jersey battler, frankie Burns,
for the featherweight title.
The Cleveland champion and poll
tician put Burns away early in the
fifth round of a scheduled eight round
bout last night before $4,000 spec
tators at the Jersey City ball yard.
Burns led the fighting from the
start and the champion seemed con-
tent to let him wear himself out.

convenience than expected.
Large squads OF troops, ordered out
by Gustav Noske, Minister OF Defence,
patrolled the downtown districts 6cm
early in the morning, and no disorder
was reported UP to noon. The stores
generally were open for business, though
many vitality important trades are shut
down. These include typesetting and
electric and gas supplies
Big open air demonstrations by the
independents were held IN the northern
and eastern suburbs OF Berlin. At Stet-
TN the large works are idle. In Saxony,
however, there IS no strike and in Bres-

went on strike in sympathy with the
international demonstration. but prom

night. AS 4 result OF the strike the city
Is without electric light as well as trans

Newspapers which did publish con-
demned the strikers as irresponsible
persons. Some OF the Independent pa

PARIS, July Additional facts that
are coming out in regard to the famous
Shantdng letter of protest signed by

Bliss show that these members OF the
American mission stated their views In
regard to China at President Wilson's
own request made at a meeting OF the
commission some time before the Coun-
ell Of Four reached it's decision to GIVE
Shantung to Japan.
The idea of these members was that
the President wanted them to formulate
their opinions and present them orally
to him before the matter was settled
This they prepared to do. but the Presi-
dent did not invite them to any further
conference on the subject and. hearing
the matter was about to be decided.
they decided to write letter to the
President.
Gen. Bliss prepared the letter, which
they signed and sent to the Presidents
house by special messenger. apparently
the decision was made Immediately
thereafter and the President did not
mention the subject to them again.
The signers OF this letter do not re-
gard II as a protest because their views
were requested by the President, but
they admit that 1t was not in accord with
the decision. Col. E. NJ. House was
present at the meeting, but he was not
invited by the other three, Henry White
acting with Lansing and Bliss, to Join in
the letter. as they knew his views were
not the same rs theirs.

Holland heretofore has obtaiDed all
her coal from Germany, but the Ger

ments would take all her exportable
coal for years to come.
This puts up to the Allies the ques-

the other northern neutrals which

many. AS the Dutch have available
shipping they undoubtedly will be
obliged to get all their coal from Amer
lea, which means an entirely new mar
