MARINES IN HAYTI
SICK OF THEIR JOB
Resent Belief of Home Folks
That They Engage in Indis-
criminate Killings.
CONDITIONS REVOLVING
Rum Powerful Enough to
Drive Motorcycle Sold in
Every Shop.
In thc Associated Press.

PORT AU PRINCE, Nov. Ii mere is
no doubt of the fact that many OF the
1900 marines on occupation duty in
Hayti are sick OF the job. They want
to go home. or somewhere else. 1t is
hard life for youngsters who are sent
into mountain regions In the north
along peaks as high as Denver. Often
they are away from pest for weeks, ana
they declare they undergo many hard
ships. not the least of which is lack OF
ice in a climate where it is essential
Since the first session of the Naval
Board of Inquiry at Washington the
marines have been hearing from home
folk anxious to know If they are taking
part in "indiscriminate killings" This
charge, first made by Major-Gen. Bar
nett former commandant of the Marine
Corps, and then corrected by him, has
gone everywhere, marines assert, declar-
ing that the first statement has never
been overtaken by the correction. This
weeks steamship brought hundreds of
letters, all seeking the truth about con-
ditions. The marines contend that they
are on rough duty and then are held up
at home as rough men with the gun.
Major-Gen. Neville, a member of the
Naval Board of Inquiry. inspected every
part of the fighting plant here and
found many things to commend, but de-
clared It was not properly equipped.
This. he found was particularly true as
to hospital facilities. There is not an
X-ray machine on the island. and naval
doctors In charge assert they cannot
provide adequate service for the sick.
Appeals fer help are said to have
brought the answer that there were no
funds. Hayti Is not a health resort and
there is much disease.
Gen. Neville inspected kitchens built
of bits OF boards from packing boxes.
There was no way to keep out the flies
in such a structure. Field kitchens are
in use generally.
Put In a requisition Immediately for
a new cooking outfit" said the Cen
eral. IF we are to be here ten or fifteen
years we might at least have proper
accommodations"
The brigade commander and his staff
have made every effort to keep liquor
away from the marines but with almost
every shop selling 1t the task is difficult.
Hayti's principal native drink is rum.
1t is a wild thing. Marines who have
tested 1t say 1t is powerful enough TO
drive a motorcycle.

relative to the activities of the firm Of

declared to have carried on an extensive
business in smuggling property out Of
Germany.
Replying, DR.. wirth, Minister of
Finance, asserted the banking houses
mentioned were evidently engaged In
smuggling capital out of the country. The
Government" he continued, learned
a few days ago that millions of its cash
and securities were standing to the
credit Of German subjects with the firm
of Cruiser G. Phillipson in Amsterdam.
and that these millions had gone there
through an intermediary in contraven-
ton OF German laws. II is correct that
among the persons having account. with
Cruiser & Phllipson are members
Of princely houses, and some of the
Hohenzollern family. The Finance De-
partment has been instructed to demand
security up to the highest possible figure
from customers Of the Cruiser bank.
when one reads the list of people
who did business with this bank he
must blush with shame. 1t has made
strange impression to learn that princely

to apprehend Cruiser by surrounding

DUNRAVEN AGAINST 1T

LONDON, Nov. 23.-The opening of
the debate on the Irish home rule bill
in the House of Lords to-day afforded
notable contrast to the apathy dis
played when the measure was under
consideration in the House Of Com
mons. The Upper House was crowded
and many of the members of the
Commons, including Premier Lloyd
George, Andrew Bonar Law and Sir
Edward Carson, listened to Lord Bir-
kenhead's speech introducing the bill.
Many peeresses We're in the side gal
crowded
Explaining the provisions of the
bill, Lord Birkenhead read letter
from Sir Edward Carson in which the
Unionist leader declared he and his
colleagues had made up their minds
to accept the bill and work under the
measure Loyalty.
Lord Birkenhead suggested that a
secondary motive for the murder of
British officers in Dublin last Sunday
was the influence it would have on this
debate, and declared there was evidence
that the Sim Fein extremists were be-
ing beaten.
Act of 1914 the Alternative.
Pointing out that unless this present
bill was passed the Home Rule act of
1914 would automatically come into OPP
Grafton directly the peace treaty with
Turkey is ratified, he formally an
hot ,nt
make itself responsible for a simple re-
peal of the 1914 act. Lord Birkenhead
said he was convinced. however, that
the only danger to the bill lay IT. a CO.
al'tion of those thinking the bill did not
&C far enough and those thinking it
went too far.
Strange as it might SEEM" said Lord
Birkenhead, II think this is a favorable
opportunity to effect a settlement be-
cause the Irish people are sick and tired
of the horrible reign of terrorism
The Earl of Dunraven, on the ground
that the bill was not supported by the
great majority of Irishmen and afford
ed no prospect of permanent settle
ment, moved its rejection describing the
bill as an honest but ignorantly honest
attempt on the part of the Government
to settle the Irish.
The debate, after adjournment for din
ner, mad no special interest. Lord Hal
dane, the principal speaker, advocated
the adoption of the bill as great for
ward step, though not perfect.
Letter From Victim of Sunday.
Disapproval of the present system of
government in Ireland was expressed in
"A letter written by Leonard Wilde, who
was shot and killed in the Gresham
Hotel. Dublin, on Sunday, which was
received by Arthur Henderson. Labor
leader in the House of Commons, to-
day. Wilde asked Mr.. Henderson's adj
vice as to 1.-The best method of conse-
Grating my life" to the cause of real
democracy in Ireland.
Wilde wrote that his observation had
led him to believe ireland never could
be coerced," and suggested his knowl-
edge of Irish history might make him
q valuable worker in the Labor party
in that organizations fight in behalf of
ireland.
