IRISH COUNCILS
 HOLD SINN FEN
 DEMONSTRATIONS

Dublin, July 2S.-Nearly all the Irish County and District Councils recently elected have now passed resolutions declaring allegiance to DaiI Eireann, and their first meetings have been turned into Sim Fein demonstrations. The new chairmen, everywhere outside Northeast Ulster, are Sim Feiners.
 The Dublin County Council has a1- ways been a moderate body. Now it has a Sim Fein majority, has pro- nounced for Dail Eireann and elected as it's chairman a young professor of mathematics. At Sligo the chairman, a Sim Fein M. F., announced that all their actions would be guided towards the most effective means of clearing Britain out of Ireland.
 This council, like most of the coun- cils, has made Irish language compul- sory on all candidates for office under the council. The councils have refused to send minutes Of their pro ceedings to the local government board, and will also refuse all infor- rnation to the Income Tax department.

None of the councils would make any provision for the payment of the compensation for outrage awarded against the localities by the courts.
 At Roscommon it was decided to stop the salary of the sheriff to punish him for allowing military to occupy the court house. In many places the Republican flag was float ed over the, council hall, and in some instance was then removed by the soldiers. In, Mayo all the proceed ings were carr1ed on in the Irish language.
 So far, the local government board which used to be very prompt in dealing with the local bodies has turned a blind eye to the results of the new departure. But sooner or later a conflict between the new powers and the old is regarded as inevitable.

THIS WILL IS FRAUD PROOF"

Des. Moines, Ia., July 28-What he says he believes to be a fraud proof' will has been made and filed in the office of the clerk of Polk county, by Theodore Mantz, a Des Moines lawyer. MT. Mantz dictated his will into a talking machine and had it re- corded in wax.
 At the end of the dictation c. H. Miller, a lawyer, and H. w. Brandt, a court reporter, testified into the ma chine they were witnesses to the making" of the will, and spelled their names out in ru1l the wit nesses. The record then was put on a machine and reproduced the voices. Mantz he took it to the clerks office, had the box containing it sealed in wax and filed.
 MT. Mantz has instructed Mrs. Mantz to take the case to the high est court of the country if the va lidity of the will should be question ed.
 The will on a record is believed by it's maker to be the first os its kind in the country. Lawyers say a possi- ble objection to wills on talking ma chine records Is an Iowa statute which says conveyances of property worth more than $200 must be in writing. Mantz says he will go be- fore the next session of the Iowa leg isIature and endeavor to get a bill through which will legalize spoken wills when recorded as his is.
 Mantz says he believes the future will see greater uses of talking ma- chimes and records, and in his opin- ion it would be much more difficult tc Hamper with" a spoken will than a written one.

WATERBURY KACEYS TO LINE UP
 AGAINST AMIN THREAD NINF

Willimantic. May 14.-The Waterbury Kaceys will oppose the American Thread company team at Recreation park Sum- day. The Kaceys are managed by Ed Flaherty, the old state league pitcher, who knows the game from A to z. The Waterbury team comprises the following: Stenken c, Meany or Wallace p, Moore or Jackson 1b, Sheehy (Pastime basket ball starr .2b, Fuhue ss, Purcell 3b, Null ven If, Fitzpatrick of. Dunn If.
 The lineup of the local aggregation is as yet somewhat of conjecture although it is known that Authier of Providence, R. l., will do box duty for the thread makers. This twirler comes highly rec commended by the sporting editor of the Providence Journal and by Roy Rock, formerly manager of the Providence Grays in the International league, which ought to be boosting enough. It is prob able that there will be one or two more changes in the lineup of the locals when they take the field Sunday, but these will not be definitely known until after the practice session tomorrow afternoon. Mike Driscoll and Jack -Curran, co-stars on Danny Dunn's championship Colts of a decade ago, will umpire the coming fray.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS DULL.

New York. May 1s-Business on the stock exchange today was dull almost to Inc point of stagnation. Prices were comparatively steady. however, the mar set. for the first time in several weeks, bezrinE signs of sold out" condition.
 Developments of the day were again susceptible of bearing interpretation aside from the successful offering of new capi- tal issues, these including notes of the Louisville and Nashville and Atlantic Coast Line roads for moderate amounts.
 The industrial situation continued to reflect the tense conditions created by the railroad strike in the middle west, where the. car shortage intensified the serious congestion of freight at terminals.
 Monetary conditions in the local mar ket were not materially changed, al- though call money rose to 12 per cent, the weeks maximum. after opening at 8 per cent. This was in large part attrib- uted to heavy interest payments to the government. In New England, the west and south. increasing strain upon credits was reported.
 Rails gave better account of them selves than any other class of stocks, es- peclaily Texas and Pacific and several other issues of the western and south western divisions. Final prices for steels. equipments. oils and shippings were rather mixed. but higher in the nah. Total sales amounted to 1000 shares
 Tn point of interest, trading in stocks was at an times overshadowed by the weakness of Liberty bonds and Victory notes. Almost without exception those issues continued 10 fall to lowest quota lions In their history. Foreign bonds also lost some of their recent advance, while domestic rails and industrisls were irreg- uiar. Total sales, par value, aggregated bl6Ie5. 900.

played a one-sided game, so there's no reason to expect one this year. How ever we do not guarantee this, but will almost guarantee that if it is one-si1ed. Norwich will be on the heavy end. i
 The local boys have been in a slump lately, due to the war no doubt, md have been playing greatly below their normal pace. It is hoped that they will shake off the jinx today and show their real worth.
 Coach Mckay has not given a hint as to the pitcher he will start, but it is very probable that he will open up with Long" John Keenan, who seems to be his best bet.
 There should be. large attendance at the game this afternoon as there is nothing else worth while going on, in town cxcep, a few shows that one can go to any time. It is cheaper, healthier and more exciting to sit in the fresh open air watching a fast ball game, than to park in a theatre on a beautiful spring afternoon therefore if the sun shines, be on hand and en- courage the boys.
