WILSON SA YS HE CAN NOT REPEAL PROHIBITION;
 HIRAM JOHNSON FLA YS LEAGUE AS WAR TRUST
BOLT KILLED INSPECTOR
 CRAVEN; FIND BODY UNDER HIS HORSE

located in the southern end of what is known as the Riggs pasture. A guard was left with the remains, while one of the party rode iEto San Simon, where word was telephoned the sher- iffs office yesterday afternoon.
 Sheriff Mcdonald left immediately for the scene and arrived there about o'clock for the inquest
 The coroner at San Simon formed a jury and went out to view the body, which following the inquest, will be taken to Douglas fer burial
 The body was found in such a de- composed state along with that of the horse that no doubt is felt by the of ficers that Craven was killed by light ming. In the pocket of the dead man was found a one dollar piece, which was burned black and the clothes were also burned in such a way as to indicate that bolt of lightning had struck both horse and rider.
 Craven's activity in pursuit of cat tie rustlers, and evidences in his cabin that he had been interrupted in the preparation of a meal there, led at first to a theory that the inspector had been done to death by vengeful cattle thieves, and the offering of re- ward aggregating $750 for the suppos- ed murderers.

Sees Triumph Of The Old . World Intrigue Over U. s. :;
 Champions Cause Of Irish

NEW YORK, June 2S.-The League of Nations was denounced as "a gi, gantic was trust" tonight by United States Senator Hiram Johnson of California in an address before a mass meeting called by the league for the Preservation of American Inde- pendence. He demanded the repudia- tion of the league covenant
 Similar demands were made by United States Senator James A. Reed of Missouri and George Wharton Pep per of Philadelphia.
 Sees "Germ of Many Wars"
 ''The league contains within itself" |" asserted Senator Johnson, "the germs of many wars, and worse than that it rivets, as in the Shantung decision, the claims of tyranny upon millions of people and cements for all times unjust and wicked annexations"
 After declaring that under the pro- posed covenant "the representatives of rulers, not of peoples" would gov ern the world, the senator said that by its entry into the league the Unit, ed States will enter into partnership with certain national bankrupts who, after our first six months of meddling and muddling with European and As iatic controversies over territory, have already come secretly to despite and detest us"
 Champions Ireland
 Ireland was referred to by the speaker as "a litigent of the perfect case who can get no hearing" and he maintained that it was the pur, pose of the league to use the great wealth, power and blood of the great democracy of the earth to retain re- volting peoples, without regard to the righteousness of their cause. within the governments and powers of which they would be free.'
 After asserting that the league lice the world" Senator Johnson said:
 "This league means the halting and betrayal of new world liberalism, the triumph of cynical Old World di- plomacy, the humiliation and the end of American idealism'
 Senator Reed discussed the various features of the proposed covenant, de claring he refused ito enter into co-partnership with 32 nations not one of which in government, in civiliza- tion, in liberty, -is the equal of the United States"
 The Missouri senator maintained that the real meaning of the league was that the government of the world must be placed in the hands of nine men among whom the United States would have single vote.
 He contended that the race prob lem was bound to enter into the sit uation and that of the 32 nations composing the proposed league, r, or a majority, belonged to the dark skin races" He referred to India and

 l. w. w. Literature

The case of the state against Chief of Police J. A. Kempton of Bisbee, charged with illegal seizure, was dis missed by Judge Allison yesterday af- ternoon, following a hearing in which the court sustained demurrur offer ed by the defendant asking for dis missal on the grounds that the com plaint against Chief Kempton was faulty in that it did not set forth sui ficient cause for action
 The plaintiff was represented by Attorney J. w. Ross and the defen- dant was represented by Attorney w. G. Gilmore of Tombstone After hearing the arguments on the demur- Ter on both sides, Judge Allison dis missed the case.
 The caes in question is one in which Chief Kempton is charged with entering and seizing suit case filled with l. w. w. literature at the re- quest of the federal agents, who now have the property.
 A large number of the citizens and business men of Bisbee crowded the court room and there was not even standing room out in the corridors. which indicated that there is a great deal of interest being taken in cases of this kind.

Ending Of .. s. Control Hn Legal
 TangLe ds Peace Treaty Is Signed

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-Now that the peace treaty has been signed, leg al officers of the government-prob- ably Attorney General Palmer-will have to decide whether the signing terminates government control or su- pervision of many private activities, within the meaning of the laws which took them over.
 "The end of the war" "the termIna- tion of the war" during the emer- gency," when state of war is end ed," and with the coming of peace'' are some of the terms which have been used in the amultitude of war time laws. The legal 'questionss in- volved are apparent. Furthermore, measures are pending to suspend war time control, notably in the case of telephone and telegraph wires. Some government controls, such as food and fuel, actually long since have ceased to function The legal limita- tiOns placed on some of the principal wartime government controls are ex-

 The Chinese delegation issued an official statement tonight, re- viewing its protest against the Shantung settlement, made to the council of prime ministers on May 4, and its reservation on the same question made in the plen- ary session of the peace confer ence May 6, against the transfer of German rights in Shantung to Japan instead of to China.
 The statement says the action of the conference on Shantung evoked nationwide protest in China, which makes it impossible for the Chinese government to ac- cept the objectionable clause in the treaty.
