Biltmore last night by the Society of
Arts and Sciences.
MIR. Colby was to have been toast

be present, John F. Tucker, the sec
retary, said
"This dinner grew out Of discomfort
when one afternoon at the Metropolitan
Club. in Washington, Mr.. Colby and

pleased that the project Of giving one
of our dinners to discuss prohibition
was discussed. Mr.. Colby made all
the arrangements, and he is not here

"It Is q resolution referring to Mr.

Mr.. Oakes. "Mr Colby has been con-

proud that one of our members is se-

The resolution expressed gratifica-

Mr.. Colby. Mr. Tucker called for

The dinner was given in honor of
Governor Edwards of New Jersey, who
was invited to give the wet" side of
a prohibition argument in answer to
William j. Bryan, who some time ago

The speakers ircluded Augustus

Haskell, of Brooklyn; Alexander Simp-

declared that prohibition was "a men

make of American liberty "a living

Governor Reeckman of Rhode Island,
and Burr Mcintosh.
After reasserting that he intended
to make a national issue of anti

Man Who Faced Gallows.
Exoneraied, Gets $4, 900
Mississippi Compensates Vic
tim of BungIed Hanging and
Lifetime Sentence

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 26.-The lower
house of the State Legislature voted
$4,000 to VIII Purvis, a Lamar County
farmer, to-day for having faced the
gallows only to be ultimately exon
Grated Of the murder charge of which
he was convicted.
The killing was that of Will Buck
eley, witness in "white cap" case
twenty-six years ago near Columbia,
Miss. On the day set for execution the
moose slipped and Pirvis fell unhurt
when the trap was sprung. His counsel
won a contention that he could not
twice be punished for the same offense
and sentence was committed to life i'm
prisonment.
Two years later Joe Beard, another
farmer. cleared Purvis in d deathbed
confession relating to the killing of
Buckley, and he was pardoned. A
cousin of the murdered man, now in
the Legislature, supported the bill to
compensate Purvis which passed the
House to-day.

"Regardless of the other political is
sues involved, the VETS already have
announced that the vote on Wadsworth
will be referendum on prohibition in
New York State. If he should win, then
maliciously hostile wet press would
herald to the nation and the world the
claim that New York had repudiated
prohibition. The 'wets' would insist
that he and the other Senator and the
forty-three Congressman from New
ork must accept such vote as a man
date to oppose enforcement in every
way. Every effort to enforce prohibi-
ton in New York would be made more
difficult. A setback to prohibition in
this case might forfeit strategic ad-

Cecil and Devlin Attack
Irish Home Rule Bill

LONDON, Feb. 26.-Two prominent
leaders of opinion in this country came
out to-day in strong opposition to the
governments Irish bill, which was for
mally introduced in the House of Com
mons last night.
Lord Robert Cecil in an interview
insists that Ireland must become or
derly before amy sort Of selfgovern-
ment is granted to her. Joseph Devlin.
NJ. p, denounced the bill as "insulting
and ridiculous" and says that only
real government and not make he
ieve, which only divides the country
permanently. can remedy the present
situation. He adds: There IS no use
attempting to pass a bill for Irish self
government which the Irish themselves
reject"
Lord Robert, who heretofore has been
considered favorable TO Ireland. said
further he was opposed to having any
Irish members at all in the British
House of Commons. when Ireland
has shown herself an orderly country
that would be the time TO offer her a
just measure of self government" said
Lord Robert IF there is district in
the northeast which is hostile to pro
posal Of government and the rest
of Ireland is favorable. then we would
have to resort to the principle Of self
determination. If the Irish want COM
plete self-government they must con-
vince their fellow countrymen. No
one in Ireland wants the present bill
AS far as restoring order is concerned
Ireland would welcome the return OF
the BalfOur crimes act ~ This net ic
one OF the strongest ever imposed on
ireland.
Devlin in his statement said fur
ther:
"There is no man, woman or child in
Ireland who would not oppose this bill.
1t is purely measure TO please Sir
Edward Carson, and is grotesuue
travesty on freedom. It will be re-
jected in contempt by all Ireland, ex-
cept perhaps by the ascendant party
in Ulster, whose bill I believe it is"

Ashurst Answers Reed
Senator Asnurst declared that SEN
ator Reed, by making sarcastic re-
marks to Democratic Senators who are
going to support the Lodge reserva-
tons, "hopes artfuliy and shrewdly" to
prevent them.
He hopes" Senator Ashurst added,
that the sting of his terrible sarcasm

Tor the Lodge reservations, 80 that
there Will be no hope Of ratifying
the treaty at all. The Senator is per-
1ectiy justified in making that argu-
mcnt. but | simply want him TO know
that think see the plan.
1T is not an improper plan. If he
can prevent Democrats from ratifying

Vlnced That we can have treaty by

dated"
During discussion of the proposed
amendments to the reservation on do
mestic questions, the Democratic Sem
ators denied that they had favored
them III the bipartisan conference.
After Senator Lodge withdrew his
amendments to the reservation Senator
Hitchcock offered as a substitute q
reservation that was defeated in the
Senate on November 10. The Hitch
cock substitute would reserve to each
member nation" the right to decide its
domestic questions
Senators of both parties, including
Senators Dorah, Kellogg, Lenroot, Reed

since it changed the provisions Of the
covenant respecting other nations.

Ruling by Cabinet
On the Disability of
President Opposed
Emphatic Objection by Mem
bers of House Committee
to Madden Bill Marks
Opening of Hearings

WASHINGTON. Feb. 26-What con-
stitutes Inability" of President of
the United States to perform the duties
Of his Office and how this question
may be determined was discussed TO-
day from all angles by the House Ju-
dietary Committee in opening hearings
on four measures relating to mode of
procedure.
Emphatic objection was expressed
by members Of the committee to GER
tain provisions Of bill offered by
Representative Madden, Republican, of
Illinois, which would give the Cabinet
power to declare the President "unfit''
after being i'll or absent from the
country six weeks.
Mr.. Madden said he was TRYING to
suggest q short way out of the diff
iiculty adding that the Cabinet, natur-
ally in harmony and sympathy with a
President, would not be inclined to do
violence to his rights.
why does your bill fix March 4 as
the date 1T IS to take efect?" asked
representative Morgan, Republican,
Simply to take the present. Presi-
dent out of the discussion" Mr.. Mad
den replied. IL do not want President
Wilson to think this legislation is
aimed at him."
Representative Hustled. Republican,
of New York, thought the plan gave
tremendously wide discretion to the
Cabinet" which amounted to absolute
power over the President.
Representative Rogers, Republican,
of Massachusetts, spoke in support of
his bill providing that the Supreme
Court when requested by resolution
of the Senate or House, should de-
termine whether the President was
able to discharge his duties. Mr.. Rog-
ers said he did not want to Glitter up
the Constitution" with another amend
ment If the question could be de-
termlned by statute.
The bill by Representative Macarthur,
Republican, of Oregon, under which
the President would be disqualified be-
cause of thirty day period of absence
from the country or illness, was dis
cussed briefly, and next week the COM
mittee will hear Representative Fess,
Republican, of Ohio, who has still an
other plan for solving the Presidential
disability problem.
