troll of Danzig by Poland has been
recommended to the council of the

states. lord Robert Cecil. represen-
tative of South Africa; n. w. Rowell,
of Canada. and DR.. Nansen, of Mol
way, agree in criticising the action
of those governments in announcing
policies regarding such questions as
the admission of Armenia through
other channels than their represen-
tatives at the assembly meeting,

street the fire ran uncontrolled
along Winthrop street and other
narrow thoroughfares, as far as Old
George street. Thus. an area OF
three blocks in this part of the town
was reduced to masses of debris.
1t was not in this district, how
ever, that the loss of the fire was
centered. The magnificent city hall
of Cork. located on the southern
end of the Parnell bridge. that spans
the river Lee. also was laid in ruins.
In addition the Carnegie library just
across Anglesea street to the west,
was burned, and the Corn exchange
just behind the city hall and to the
south, was at least partially de-
stroyed.

Dispatches reaching London to-

aged premises have been plundered
in some instances. it is said, but
the military is in absolute control
at present. Rumors relative to the
loss of life are conflicting and are
for the most part vague and con-
jectural.

received here. Some reports tend
to question the accuracy of earlier
dispatches, but others repeat the
stories told in first reports.
All indicate that the disorders and
fires had direct connection with
the attacks made on the lorries, car
rying police auxiliaries. Some news.
papers are frankly skeptic of these
reports, and say that the fires mig II
have been caused by stored explo-
, sives. such as were found in the city
of Dublin. Others indicate their
belief the fires were a reply to me

southwestern Ireland. and it is re.
marked that dispatches have not
furnished proof that the fires were
set by men bent on reprisals.

outlined in his testimony. were de-
voted to explaining the soviet system
to the end that Americans would allow
its recognition as the established gov

extend it in .he United States.
When the committee demanded cop
les of the actual governmental instruc-
tions to the effect former Senator
hardwick, Of Georgia, attorney for the
soviet bureau, argued that to give them

the Soviet Foreign Office corresponded
with Martens, which should be entitled
to immunity, but promised notwith
standing to furnish them in the origi-
nal or in sworn translations. An ad-
Journment was taken until Thursday
partly to let Martens examine his rec
ords for that purpose
Martens also told the committee that
the Soviet government had S45O,OOO,-
600 or $500.000,000 in gold to spend
IN foreign trade, stating briefly that
there was little or no gold in the
hands of private banks or individuals. u

Senator Borah inquired as to the
Soviet Russia publications mail

Postmaster General Burleson had never
objected to its circulation the Senator
remarked grimly, amid laughter in
the hearing room, that st must be all

Martens incidentally told of his en-
deavors to obtain title to property of
Russian consular agents and diplomatic
resentatives already in the country
but said he had not pressed the matter
IN the courts because the State De

Chairman Moses warned the wit

that he was still to regard himself as
