GETS ARMENIA REPORT
PROPOSED MANDATE DISCUSSED
BY HARBoRD MISSION.
Declares the Undertaking Would Mean
Billion Dollar Burden to the
American People.

Washington, April 5.--An army Of
$4,000 men, good-sized fleet of naval
vessels and an outlay of $7j7, 100000
during the next five years would be
required to begin administering the
proposed American mandate for Ar
menia, according to the long-awaited
Hartford report submitted to the SEN
ate by President Wilson after two for
NAL requests had been made.
If the United States accepts the Ar
menian mandate, it must also be per.
mitted to take Constantnople, the re-
port states. With the Turkish empire
still in control Of Constantnople, the
difficulties of executing the mandate
would be insuperable, according to the
report.
The report is the work of the Amer
lean military mission to Armenia,
headed by Gen G. G. Hartford. 1t was
made to the president last year, after
Il long investigation of conditions in
Armenia and the near East.
General Hartford set forth the con-
illusions Of the mission after discus
sion covering IL bound volumes. The
mission made no specific recommended
tons as to whether the United States
should accept the mandate, 1t laid
down a long list of conditions which
the United States should demand of
the other powers if it accepted the
mandate. Among other things the
United States should insist upon hav'
ing an absolutely free hand in Arme-
nian affairs, the mission said.
The mission then proceeded to dem
onstate its complete neutrality by
enumerating 13 reasons for accepting
the mandate and Is reasons against
accepting it. Scanning these hastily
senators were of the opinion that the
report made a stronger case against
the mandate than for ii.

REBEL FLAMES
SWEEP IRELAND
Government Buildings in Many
Irish Cities Are Destroyed.
BURN 81 POLICE BARRACKS
Twenty-One Revenue Offices Raided
and Important Records Destroyed
Fires Reported in Dublin
Belfast and Cork.

Dublin, April 5.-Easter Sunday, the
fourth anniversary of the abortive up
rising that laid the foundation for the
island-wide movement for an independ-
ent republic, neared its end without a
repetition of the revolt.
However, organized incendiarism
throughout Erin, beginning Sunday
evening is the Sim Feiners' reply to
the governments Easter display of
force.
With the same cunning system and
secrecy with which the many raids on
police and soldlery have been carried
out, the rebels applied the torch to
government buildings and offices, espe-
cially tax bureaus, here in Dublin and
other towns. In Cork the pensions of
flee and internal revenue office were
burned down.
This authoritative summary Of the
weekend havoc throughout Ireland
was given:
Siyty-one police barracks were de
stroyed and II revenue offices raided
and their contents burned
Official Records Burned.
Police and fire guards were kept
busy throughout the day, though in
most instances they came too late to
save important official records from
pershing in the flames.
England's military machine has this
island in an iron grip and, unlike the
fanatics of 1916, the present-day lead
erS Of the rebel movement realized it
and passed the word that there is to be
no attempt to shake off the chains"
by force, and instead ordered incen-
dlariSm.
There was feverish police and mill
tary activity ell day at Cork. Large
forces patroled the streets. All auto
mobiles were held up and the occu-
pants questioned.
Eleven unoccupied police barracks
were burned or blown up in County
Cork
Raiders invaded the post Office at
Grcuagh and seized mail.
Fires in Belfast.
London, April 5.-Telephone mes
sages from Belfast say the city was
quiet throughout Easter day, but re-
ports of fires in the outlying dis
trictS continue.
Incendarism was most vlrulent in
the Newry district.
The arrests were made following an
attempt to destroy the customs house
and the barracks at Newry, where
rebel raiders also attempted to burn
down the revenue collectors private
residence.
In this they were baked by the
pluck of the collectors daughter Mrs.
Mansfield, who held one Of the attack
ers by the nose, half sitting him, until
the police arrived.
Among the ten prisoners is Councillor
Patrick Lavery.
