a feature OF the rioting was the eX-
tent of the destruction of property by
incendiarylsm. The fire brigade had
an especially hard time during the
night in fighting the flames. Their
work was rendered hideous by the con-
slant rattle of machine guns. The Sim
Feiners were In strong force and APP
peared to be well supplied with arms
and ammunition.
The greatest of bitterness was dis
played during the fighting. There
was great amount OF wrecklng OF
houses and the burning OF furniture,
both indoors and on the street. The
yells of the mob. shrieks of women and
children and groans OF the injured
were audible throughout the fighting.
When the rlotlng was at Its worst
women could be seen, clad In their
night attire rushing from their homes,
attempting to lead their families from
the danger zone.
The excitement was intense until 10
o'clock Sunday morning. Isolated
firing was 10 be heard throughout Sun
day forenoon. and the people were APP
prehenslve lest there should be n re
newal of the disorders at nightfnll.
In broad daylight Sunday Sim Feln-
ers entered Balry castle. County An
trim, barracks and decamped with all
arms and ammunition. A well-known
republican called at the barracks and
engaged the garrison sergeant ana

sistance.

United States in Accord With France
and Italy In Stand Taken Regard
ing Polish Occupation OF Rus.
sian Territory.

Washngton.--It was announced by
Secretary of the Navy Daniels on Sat
urday that Admiral Huse and the
American squadron now at Reval had
been ordered to proceed from that port
90 Danzig Later In the day Secretary
Colby held conference with Admiral
Knapp at the department Of state.
1t was learned from an official
source that complete new set of in
structlons were sent to Admiral lIuse.
They are so revolutionary, in fact, that
they constitute material change of
policy on the part of the United States.
First and most important OF ALL II is
ascertained, the American government
has determined not 10 insist that the
Polish armies remain within the ethnic
borders of Poland, but that they shall
be permitted To proceed a sufficient
distance into Russian territory to safe
guard Poland against further invasion
by the soviet armies. In this the
United States is In thorough accord
with France, regardless of the attitude
assumed by Great Britain, Italy and
the other nations. Poland has already
been informed of this change, but is
warned that her armies must not pro-
coed far enough into Russian territory
Co arouse suspicion as to the good faith
of her purposes.
II is expected by the state depart
ment that this liberty of action to Po-
land will be more effective In bring
ing about peace than any other sug-
gestion yet made.
In granting 1t, the United States and
France virtually accede to the urgent
request OF Poland that a provisional
stragetlc line be fixed preliminary to
final boundary that shall be agreed
upon by all nations, including Russia,
at a council of ambassadors.
Dispatch of Admiral Huses squad
ron to Danzig is In accord with the
determination by this government that
American merchant ships shall have
the full privilege of landing cargoes
Mt that port.
The first American test will come
when the Warsnwa, an American ship
loaded with munitions and supplies
and now two days at sea from Ant
werp, arrives at Dunzlg. Discussing
the overnight decision TO send the
squadron from Reval, Secretary Dan
iels said, 81 can only say that II was
at the request Of the state depart
ment, to protect American interests
II was learned here that France is
already acting under the policy. After
wranglng for two days with Sir Reg
inald Tower, n French cruiser took the
situation In hand and began discharg-
Ing arms and ammunition for the
Poles at Danzig. II was announced
that Il was hoped these supplies could
be delivered 60 the Polish forces by
good will OF the workmen, but II nee
essnry force would be used.
