Tombstones Get
mp ubic's Way

For many years Lott Flannery's
group of marble blocks at Delaware
avenue and b street southwest. pre-
sided over by a dropping angel, has
remained about the same In num-
Der. Every so often one green
nodded block would be removed and
a new white one substituted, and
then Flannery's friends knew there
had been another call for a tomb
stone.
Death has not been causing the
blocks to disappear quickly enough
for the local police. 1t appears.
however. Yesterday the aged stone
cutter was hailed into police court
on complaint that his stock in trade
was cluttering up public reser-
walton.
A few minutes EXAMINATION
brought about an agreement by
which F1annery will haul the
blocks back into his yard by April
Is. 1t also developed the fact that
Flannery is a sculptor of note and
wrought the Lincoln statue which
formerly adorned a column in front
of the City Hall and has been a
vagrant since being deposed from
its eminence.

Tricked Into Alliance,

Dover, Del, March 24.-The fall
tering Republicans in the Delaware
State legislature were today tricked
into a bipartisan alliance with the
Democratic minority, which, IL un-
broken, will kill suffrage ratifica-
tion in this state.
The new Delaware school code
was the bait which enticed the Re-
publicans. The Democratic floor
leader in the House, Representative
McNabb. persuaded the faltering
ten to join with the House Demo-
Gratis in q formal conference to dis
cuss the code.
Once inside the conference room
with the doors closed, the school
code was quickly forgotten and an
anti-suffrage round robin" present.
cd to the group. At the end of an
hour the ten Republicans, together
with eleven of the twelve Demo-
Gratis, had signed 1t.
With the paper containing the
signatures In his pocket, McNabb
then arose In the House and an
nounced that he was speaking as
the bipartisan representative Of the
suffrage opposition.
II, developed that the Republicans
had been deluded into signing Nc
Nabb's round robin" in the belief
that 1t represented. only straw
vote Of present sentiment. They as
serted that their signatures were
not binding and constituted nc

HOUSE LEADERS
URGING PEACE
Favor Initiating Legislation
To Bring State Of War
To End.
RIGHT TO ACT VAGUE
Difficulty Expected in Con-
nection With Emer-
gency Laws.
RIGHT TO ACT VAGUE

House leaders favor Initiating
legislation to bring to an Immediate
end the technical state of war now
existing between Germany and the
United States. they said last night,
after a conference between members
of the Foreign Relations Committee
and the steering committee.
They are perplexed. however. as
TO how to frame a resolution which
will not be unconstitutional.
1t was pointed out that the Con-
stitution specifically denies Con-
gress the right to declare peace by
providing that war shall be brought
to an end with Q treaty made by the
President. with the consent OF two
thirds Of the Senate.
Further conferences will be held.
II was said. In view Of ascsrtaininE
what course can be taken. Many
difficulties attending the conclusion
OF war have yet to be solved.
House Leaders Impattent.
The House leaders seemed dis
posed not to wait for definite action
by the Senate on the Knox resolu-
tion, which might be held up q good
many days in the unlimited debate
of that body.
They pointed out that there are
about fifty laws constituting war
legislation" whose enforcement
would be affected and in some cases
ended with the termination of the
technical state of war.
Considerable difficulty arises with
the proposal to end the war In con-
nection with laws like those having
to do with alien property.
Compared with Vera Crus.
The committee will probably take
no action, It was said. until the
question Of the constftutionality Of
such legislation Is settled. In that
event, IL was said, the COMMITTEES
will probably draft another resolu-
ton. which would meet the diff
culties and present 1t to Congress.
Such action is unprecedented, II
was said, but might in some ways
be compared with the resolution of
Congress ratifying the action in the
bombardment of Vera Cruz, which
was an act of war and consequently
in violation of the Constitution.
