committee of the Socialist party and
the Socialist group of the chamber of
deputies also will meet.
Deputy Marcel Cachin, writing in
Humanite, claims the day was "a
magnificent demonstration of the
power and discipline of the laboring
classes and was marred only by the
brutality of the ferocious police" He
emphasizes the fact that the soldiers
used no violence and that there was
no trouble where they were on duty.
Premier Clemenceau alone is re-
sponsible." NJ. Cachin says
One of the incidents of the day oc-
CURED at the Invalides bridge where
an American lieutenant colonel and
two junior officers were stopped by
dragons when they attempted to
cross the river. After a parley the
Americans were charged upon by
some cavalrymen and in the melee
some shots were fired.
During q clash between the police
and crowd in Place de la Bastiie, in
which twenty persons were wounded a
policeman shouted to the mob:
"If you want to fight, go to Yer
sailles and fight the Germans" The
mob took up the cry of "On to Yer
sailles," and = diversion was created,
which averted more serious fighting
Foreigners were prominent among
those engaged in the demonstrations
and the police declared tonight that
virtually every other leader in the
crowds was either Russian, Spanish
or a member of some other alien race
The prefecture of police maintains
the policemen had no ball cartridges
in their reVOlVerS and that no ammu-
milton was issued to the troops, the
few shots fired consequently having
come from the demonstrators
The disturbances are generally de-
plored by public opinion. Before the
war. such incidents as the day brought
forth would have seemed trivial in
comparison with those of other May
days, but it is considered deeply re-
gretta BILE that after so much French
blood had been shed upon the battle
field any more should have been
spilled on the streets of the capital

FOR 20 YEARS
Coleman Spent Money Without
Results.
Finds Right Medicine At Last,
He Says.

81 have spent lots of money during
the past twenty years trying to get rid
of my troubles and Tanlac is the only
thing l have yet found that has given
me any relief" said William V. Cole
man. who lives at 419 Lands Court,
Kansas City, Mo. while talking to a
Tanlac representative the other day.
Il suffered all these years" con-
tinued Mr.. Coleman, with catarrh in
my head and throat. 1 lived in New
Jersey for long time. and this trouble
had pulled me down so much. and had
undermined my general health to such
an extent that / was advised to come
west, with the hope that the climate
here would do me some good. Well,
the change didn't seem to make any
Improvement in my condition, but to
the contrary 1 just gradually got
worse all the time. My bronchial tubes
were so badly affected that I had a lot
of trouble in breathing, and L had a
ringing noise in my ears all the time.
Every time l would catch little cold
my chest and head would get all
stopped up. l had several operations
bat 1 didn't get any relief from them
and this trouble stayed with me SO
long that it just Slapped about all the
strength and energy had.
"A friend of mine who had suffered
from the same kind of trouble that
had. told me about Tanlac, and also
said that Tanlac was the only thing
that had ever done him any good at
an, and advised me to give it a trial
Well, / have only taken three bottles
Of Tanlac, so far. and it is simply re-
1narkable the way 1 have improved on
that three bottles of medicine. Judg-
ing from the good that Tanlac has al
ready done me. l feel sure that a few
more bottles will overcome my troubles
entirely. My head has almost COM
pletely cleared up, and I can breathe
easier than l could for a long time
Not only am l getting rid of my
troubles. but my whole system has
been greatly built up. and my strength
ard energy are fast coming back to
me. | have gained a lot in weight
and in fact. 1 just feel like a differ
ent man altogether. 1t is really more
than remarkable. the wonderful bene-
fits have gotten from Tanlac already
and l am more than glad to recon-
mend it to everybody"

HUN ENVOY RAPS LEAGUE
Herr SchucckinS Says Plan Gives Al
lies and MiIitarists the Power.

London, May 2.-According to d
summarized report of an interview
given by Herr Schuecking, one Ger
lnany's peace delegates, to the Ber-
lin correspondent of the Herald, the
laborite organ, the plan for the league
of nations which has been formulated
at Paris has brought establishment
to Germany 1t is regarded there as
a thinly yelled sch, LIE for. t , VIC
torious power t. gain the ascenddncy
and gives the miiitarists IN oppor-
tunity to taunt the pacifists for their
simplicity, it is said.
If the scheme-is adopted in its pres
,nt form" Herr Schuecking is quoted
as saying, the league will lose all its
moral authority over all sections of
the Germans, some of whom will re-
vt to reaction. . Others look for
ward to the esta Adjustment of interna-
tional socialism"
Herr Schuecking Emphasized that
a feature of the German plan for a
league creates a representative world
parliament, thus securing IL demo-
cratic base of the league and avoiding
return OF militia rism in a new form.
