NEW TERROR IN IRELAND
Land Owners Are Being Intirnidated
And Forced to Sell.

Dublin, May 5.-Conficts over land
attended by organized cattle drives =
to intimidate land owners and compel
them to sell have been added lately to
Ireland's other troubles. The distur-
Dances are a revival of conditions
which prevailed 30 or more years ago
when farmers and graziers were forced
by similarly methods to sell large land
holdings.
The malcontents complain that most
of the good land in the south and west
OF Ireland is being used for grazing
purposes and that they are unable to
purchase il. Consequently they have
resorted to the cattle drives" and
threats of bodily harm to the owners.
1t is very very difficult TO police all the
country and many of the drives have
resulted in three or four farmers losing
all their cattle at one swoop.
The intimidators are represented as
renters, who are demanding longer
leases of land, small owners and GER
tain number Of holders OF comparatively
large tracts who believe their neigh
bors' land used for grazing is more
suitable for tillage than the ground
they are trying to cultivate.
'It's the same story again Of the
eighties" said a former south of Ire
land land holder They forced ms to
cut up our large holdings then by use
of the same methods now employed
The land troubles should not be con
fused with crimes resulting from the
political unrest IL is separate and
distinct and shows evidence of being
on the increase.

KNOX SAYS WILSON

In Order to Coerce the Senate Into
Ratification of the Treaty of
Versailles.

Washington, ID, c., May 5.-0pening
debate on his resolution to declare the
state of war with Germany and Aus
tria at an end, Senator Knox, Repubh-
can, Pennsylvania, declared in the Sen
ate to-day that President Wilson was
arbitrarily maintaining that the ma.
tion technically was at war in order to
coerce the Senate into ratification of
the treaty of Versailles.
There was no excuse whatsoever
for greatly prolonging the war beyond
the signature of the armistiee,' Sena-
tor Knox said. "snd the only explana-
tion for so doing was the deliberate
aim to retain all these autocratic COM
pusory powers with which the eXeeu-
tive had been endowed for the prose-
cution OF the war in order that they
might be used for other purposes

HUNGARIAN REQUEST
DENIED BY THE ALLIES
No Plebiscite in Territories Which Are
to Be Detached From Hungary
By Treaty.

Paris, May 5-The reply OF the con.
ference of ambassadors to the Hunga
rian objections to the terms OF the pro
posed treaty was delivered this after
noon to the secretary of the Hungarian
delegation at Versailles.
Neither the text of the reply nor the
covering letter was given out, but it is
learned that the reply is negative to
the demand of the Hungarians for a
plebiscite in the territories which the
projected treaty dctaches from Hun
gary. The Hungarian delegation has
been given ten days dating from to-
morrow to reply.
The ambassadors listened to the re-
port of Sir Charles Marling, president
of the interallied commission for the
plebiscite in Schleswig, on the new
boundaries to be fixed as result OF
the plebiscite. The question is very
complicated in view of the variations
in the vote in the different regions of
Schleswig and will be considered fur
ther by the ambassadors after hear
ing General Claudel, French member of
the commission.

WARSHIPS NOW
AT NEW YORK
GET ORDERS
The Danger Arising from
the Disturbed Internal
Conditions of Mexico Is
the Reason for the Ac-
ton Taken by the Navy
Department.

Washington d. G.. May 5.-Secretary
Daniels to-day ordered a division OF
destroyers, now at New York with the
Atlantic fleet, to sail Immediately for
Key West, where they will be held for
possible duty in Mexican waters.
The destroyers are the sherwood,
Case, Lardner, Putnam, Beale and Reid.
The fotilla is commanded by Captain
Byron Long on the tender Black Hawk,
which will accompany the fotilla. Cap
tain Long was in conference with Sec
retary Daniels here last night and left
Immediately afterwards for New York
to get his ships ready to sail to-day.
The secretary said to-day that Cap
tain Long had been given full instruc-
tions as TO the policy to be pursued in
the event it becomes necessary to send
the destroyers to Mexican ports.
The vessels should reach Key West
by tomorrow night or Friday and the
run from there to Tampico or Vera
Cruz would be a matter of only a few
hours.
The state department announced
Monday that it had asked the navy de-
partment to send destroyers to those
two Mexican ports. The request was
based on reports received from the
American consuls, who desired to have
ships on hand to take off American
citizens if that should become neces-
sary. Thus far no reports of any Sc
rious disturbances in the Mexican ports
have reached the government but revo-
lutionists are active not far from those
places.
At the state department it was said
that reports thus far received have not
indicated that the lives of any Ameri-
can citizens had been endangered any
where in Mexico as a result of the rev
