government as such, will not present
any proposal. and the draft drawn up
by the ministry Of the interior will be
submitted merely as preliminary sug-

The peace question probably will not

of herself that Julia was convinced.
Even though Dan Carson was sure he

that he could not be persuaded that he

The Testing of
Julia Grant
BY HAZEL DEYO BATCHELOR
COPYRIGHT, 1919. bv the Public Ledger Co.
READ THIS FIRST

Julia Grant Is about to be married
to Dan Carson when he jilts her for
another woman. When the other
woman jilts Dan in turn. he comes
back to Julia and she promises sec
ond time to carry him. But things
are not as they were and after Julia
has given her promise she discovers
that she has given her love to DIR.
John Norvillc, head surgeon at the
hospital where she has gone to study
nursing. Julia Is oppressed by her
conscience and she feels that she can
not break her promise to Dan. Then
she discovers that Lucy. her younger
sister, has fallen in love with Dan,
and she feels that the time has come
to tell Dan the truth which she does.
However, he refuses to release her
and then as though fate had intcrfered
purposely few days before the
wedding Lucy has a bad fall.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
IF JULIA had imagined that Lucy, in
her days of convalescence, would be
in mood for condolences. she was mis-
taken. Lucy's first hours with a clear
brain showed change in her. and.
strange to say, she was cold, almost
hostile to Julia. Julia thought at first
that her attitude was the result of her
Illness. that she was merely querulous,
but after a time Julia wns forced to
admit that Lucy was deliberately un-
fair, that she shrank away from any
touch of Julia's hands. and often Julia
would catch Lucy's gaze fixed on her
from across the room, an unfriendly,
distrustful look that was unmistakable.
One day Julia turned suddenly and
met LuCy's eyes full She crossed over
TO the bed and sat down on it. ''Lucy,
what is it? Won't you tell me why you
hate me So?'
Lucy twisted her lips into a smile.
'I don't hate you." she denied
"You don't love me-" Julia returned
sadly.
''I suppose you want ME 20 fall on
your neck because you nursed me
through this thing" Lucy sneered.
80, Lucyr"
Lucy turned hcr head away on the
pillow and n few minutes later when
Julia returned to the room. she snw
that Lucy's eyes were closed and that
tears were rolling down the thin white
cheeks
When Dan came to see her. she
forced every bit of energy there was in
her to the surface. Her cheeks would
blaze with color, she would call for her
most becoming negligee, and Julia would
arrange the thin blonde hair becomingly
under n lace cap. Then Lucy would
preeu before Dan. would demand things
coquettishly, would speak sharply tc
Julia reproving her for carrlessness
quite openly, would adopt, in fact. the
airs and graces of very much spoiled
young person. Instead of repulsine
Dan, this attracted him. it appealed
more than ever to his sense of protec
ton. He liked the feeling that swept
over him warmly when he overheard
Mrs. Grant tell the doctor that he wat
the only person who seemed 70 have
any influence over Lucy.
One day when Julia was sitting b,
the window sewing. and Lucy was turn,
ing over the pages of a magazine idly
the younger girl spoke.
Julia, do you still think that Dan
Carson loves you?"
Julia put down her sewing and die

Before Congress
Delegates of American
Society Also Call Wilson's
Attention to Evidence
of English Prosecutions

Diarmuid Lynch, national secretary
of the Friends of Irish Freedom, re-
ceived yesterday cable message from
former Governor Dunno, of Illinois,
and Frank P. Walsh, delegates sent to
Paris in behalf of the cause of Irish
independence, in which they quote
some of the London newspapers as ad-
mitting the charges of English atroc-
ties in Ireland.
Messrs. Dunno and Walsh said in
their message that the exposures made
here and abroad of alleged English
oppression and persecution of the Irish
have greatly disturbed the officials and
the press. The attention of President
Wilson has been called to the latest
list Of atrocities and copy has been
placed in the hands of Secretary
Lansing for transmission to Congress
Upon receiving a later message from
Paris that Secretary Lansing had for
warded the Irish charges to the State

Private Companies Must Pay
for Service, Says Sinking
Fund Commission

Controller Craig, at the meeting of
the Sinking Fund Commission yester-
day, announced that the city would once
more try to compel the private fire
alarm companies to apply for fran
chises and pay for them. The report
of the engineers shows that five COM
panies are operating fire alarm sys-
TENS without franchises. The Control
Ter thinks the companies should pay
$40 a box for the 5,6l master boxes,
and. he obtained the backing of the
Sinking Fund Commission to enforce
the payment.
The National Fire Alarm TELEGRAPH
Company controls the Special Fire
Alarm Company and the Manhattan
Fire Alarm Company and operates {

The Automatic Fire Alarm Company
controls the Consolidated Fire Alarm
Company and operates similarly. The
other company, the United Electric
Service Company, is working under s
franchise.
The matter came up yesterda,
through a communication from the
Fire Commissioner, and he was author
lied to prevent any extensions by tht
five companies unless they comply will
the order of the Sinking Fund Com
mission and apply for franchises. Some
OF the companies have been operating

Russia to save herself" declared
Stephen Pichon, the Foreign Minister,
in his address to the Chamber of Dep
uties Tuesday, setting forth the policy
of the government regarding Russian
affairs. (Previous dispatches have car
ried brief excerpts from his address,
which was followed by a vote of con-
fidence in the government, 349 to 1877.
M. Pichon began b. paying tribute
to the help that had been given in the
East by the Greek troops, and followed
this by stating the size of the French
effective forces in Russia. There were
5000 French troops in Siberia, he said,
and 1000 French at Murmansk and
Archangel. Three divisions of French
had been on the Dnester, he added,
one of which had already been with
drawn, another of which soon would
be relieved, and the remainder of the
troops relieved by degrees, as the Ru-

said the Foreign Minister in beginning

store the liberty of our communica-
tions that we went to Archangel But
we ought not to lay aside the Russian
problem. No world peace can con-
tinue so long as anarchy exists in Rus
sia. In order that civil war may cease
in Russia, it is necessary that anarchy
with it's contagion of Bolshevism
should be stamped out. 1t is necessary
that great Russian democracy should
be reconstructed, which may establish
peace. In order to attain this it is
necessary to make an appeal to all the
reconstructed elements in Russia.
'This is the policy of the Allied gov.
ernments. We desire Russia united
strong and powerful, and we do not
wish her to be disme mbered, but we
are partisans of Russian democracy
in Federal form, based upon national
sovereignty and upon the principles
Of right and Of liberty, which are the
principles of modern nations. Oul
views are also those of the Allies, fol
the problems in Russia concern others
