Cork, March 22.-Thousands OF

mayor Of Cork, who was shot to
death by an unknown assassin early
Saturday morning. Trains brought

Causes Deep Sensation.
London, March 22.-Dispatches
from ireland show the murder OF
Thomas Mac Curtain, lord mayor OF
Cork, to have produced an intense
if subdued sensation throughout
Ireland. This tragedy. says the
London Times correspondent in
Dublin, "closed one of the blacklist
weeks since the rebellion Of 1916
He gives a long list Of outrages in
various parts of the island, includ-
ing FIVE murders of policemen and
others and an attempt to kill Prof
Stockley of Cork.
No Motive Seen.
No motive for the murder has
been uncovered. No arrests have
been reported, nor, so far as known
have any clues to the perpetrators
been obtained. Among the theories
advanced is one that Mac Curtain
was murdered as a warning to 9TH
ers because he recently had the
courage to. publicly deprecate ar
attempt to murder a policeman in
Cork.
London newspapers. while unre-
servedly condemning the crime
maintain it does not differ from
those which have long terrorized
Ireland. 1t is declared that Ireland
is for the moment largely under

lieve to stand in their way

Even newspapers which support

ton of anarchy and terrorism.

Uses Shotgun.

Attorney Philip H. Wells, we'll
known attorney and former JUS
tice OF the peace, made an attempt
at suicide shortly after noon today
by shooting himself with a shotgun
at his home at 1909 Thirteenth ave-
nue..
The load from the gun entered
bis left side, tearing a great hole in
the flesh, but not penetrating the
intestines, according to information
given to Police Chief Tom Cox and
Detectives Dennis Bennett and
Charles Ginnane by DR.. Eli Brad
ford at the home shortly after the
attempt at suicide was made. Wells
also sustained a wounded right
hand in the shooting. the bare de-
tails Of which were learned by the
police officers, who did not see him,
but contented themselves with talk
ing with the physician, Chief Cox
said. The attorney was said to be
conscious after the shooting and to
have a chance for recovery.
DR.. Bradford refused to make any
statement as to the nature of the
wounds when called by The Argus.
Intimate friends of Mr.. Wells
state that he had been laboring un-
der severe strain, due to business
cares, for some time, and for the
last 10 days had been much de-
pressed. 1t is believed this brought
on a state of temporary mental
alteration which resulted in the at
tempted tragedy.
Mr.. Wells family consists OF his
wife and mother, and an aunt. He
has resided in Rock Island since
youth.

Stutz Motor, which also made a
new high record at 22S.

Motors rallied almost Is points and

1t is said Chile expresses the opin-

greater consequences to anti-Peru-

simple agitation by exalted popu-

possibly suffice to produce the

PARTIES LINES
HARD TO TRACE

Small Chance for 1t to Be

Election Issue.
BIZ DAVID LAWRENCE.
Especial to The Argus,)

Washington. March 2c.-Twenty-
three Democrats stood with Presi-
dent Wilson; 81 Democrats desert
ed him. The treaty Of Versailles
signed last June is still unratified.
Technically the United States is at
war with Germany. Americas for
eign policy is underlined. And the
in the senate will be car
ried into the presidential and con-
gressional elections for final settle
ment next November.
Briefly that tells the story of
what has happened after nine
months of wearisome debate. But
the effect upon the future Of both
the Republican and Democratic
parteis is not as simply analyzed.
True, the Republican party in the
senate stood % for ratification with
the Lodge reservations as against
IL who wanted neither treaty nor
League of Nations. But the votes
of the IL were grouped with %
Democrats who said they wanted
the treaty but not the reservations
to the league.
No Party Question.
Any campaign orator or writer of
political textbooks who tries to fix
the responsibility in the senate
upon either the Democratic or Re-
publican parties as such will have
about as much chance of carrying
conviction as the man who attempts
to blame the failure of the treaty
upon the disagreeable weather Of
the past winter.
For both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis have voted on all sides Of
every motion proposed and the rec
ord of what occurred is about as
confusing as an income tax report.
But there is no escaping one out
standing fact-President Wilson
has suffered the third defeat in IS
months, His loss of congress in
November. 1918, was followed by
the defeat of a ratification resolu-
ton on the treaty in November,
1919, and now in March, 1920, the
treaty is formally sent back to him
with the Democratic party in the
senate split in "twEin Mr. Wilson
has lost the tight hold on his party
which he once exercised. Hardly
any Democratic senators from
northern or western states remain
ed with him. Only a handful of
southern Democrats stood till the
end. Nor can the split be measured
on the basis Of Bryan strength.
There are men who deserted the
president who have no use for
Bryanism of any kind. But note
the Democrats who favored ratify-
ing the treaty with the Lodge res
ervations and the states from
which they hail:
