CIVIL WAR IS ON
LONDONDERRY
MORE MURDERED
Even Proclamation of Martial
Law May Not End the
Conflict-Soldiers Are Pow
erless.

Dublin, June 22.-With armed
bands battling for control Of London
derry, and the entire city in the grip
of lawless elements, a state of civil
war exists that may be ended only
by the proclamation of martial law
and perhaps not then.
Authorities Powerless.
The authorities r apparently
powerless. Business is completely
paralyzed. Murder, footing, n in
cendiarism stalk, through the streets.
while citizens hide within their homes
OF attempt to flee the country.
1t is rumored two events are i'm
pending that may end the period Of
outlawry. Martial law may be pro-
claimed at any moment as soon as
the authorities feel they are power
full enough to enforce it. The second
is the rumored mobilization of north
ern Ulster volunteers, preparing to
make a forced march to Londonderry
to quell the rioting.
Workmen dare not go to their shops
for fear of being held up as many
Of them have been in the last "a
hours
Postmen refuse to attempt to de-
liver the mails.
Citizens hesitate TO approach the
dead and wounded for fear OF snip
era.
More Deaths Reported.
Several more deaths We're reported
today and it is known h a scores
were wounded in the desperate fight
ing which took place this morning
between unionists and Sim Feiners.
The soldiers are absolutely unable
to cope with the situation. AS soon
as they rush into one danger zone
and clear it Of fractional disturbances
the riot breaks out in another quar-
ter.
Intermittent revolver and rifle fire
is heard everywhere and almost in
cessantly. Some of the Sim Feiners
are armed with service rifles Of any
army pattern, issuel to them by their
leaders. A dozen such raiders made
a determined attack upon a body of
troops at noon and as a result more
casualties are reported.
The body of a mar riddled with bull
let's was discovered this afternoon
floating down the river.

JUNIOR IS FALSE
Declares There's No Truth in
Report He Worked With
Wilson in Political
Situation.

New York, June 90. William G.
day. 1t was prompted by reports tina
he and President Wilson had been
in working contact on the political
situation. following the presidents in
the McAdoo letter of withdrawal
which followed on it's heels.
Denies Knowing Wilson's Plans.
Mr.. McAdoo says emphatically that
there isn't a word Of truth in the
the president is doing, and that the
president is equally in the dark as to
the former secretary of the t~reasury's
movements.
"In order to set at rest absurd ru-
mors and speculations which have
been published to the effect that my
letter of withdrawal had some rela-
ton to the presidents World inter-
view or carried a concealed purpose"
he declares. II wish to say, first, that
/ knew nothing whatever of the pres
dents interview until l saw it in
ident knew nothing whatever of my
letter of withdrawal until he saw it
in the public prints"
Why Speculation Was Caused.
Some speculation was caused by
the fact that the presidents inter-
view, which strongly demanded an
unequivocal stand on the League OF
Nations issue, was printed Friday
morning, and 1t vas only "a hours
afterwards that Mr.. McAdoo, in his
telegram of withdrawal, asked that
the democratic party adopt practic.
ally the same formula as hat urged
by Mr.. Wilson.

They Were Almost Right.

From the I~nd1anapOlS News.
In the archives of the Nuremberg
railway which was the first line con-
structed in Germany, a protest against
railways has been found, drawn up by
the Royal College of Bavarian Doctors.
It declares: Travel in carriages drawn
by locomotives ought to be forbidden
in the interests of public health. The
rapid movement cannot fail to produce
among the passengers the mental af-
lection known as delirium furiosium.
Even If travellers are willing to incur
the risk. the government should at least
protect the public. A single glance
at a locomotive passing rapidly is suf-
ficient to cause cerebral arrangement.
Consequently, it is absolutely necessary
to build a fence 10 feet high, on each
side of the railway"

MARY AND DOUG
CHEERED BY LONDON
BLOW Us a Kiss, Mary"
Yells Crowd, and Ameri-
cas- Sweetheart Obliges.

London, June 22.-Blase London
satiated with state receptions for
kings and queen and presidents and
premiers, had a brilliant reawakening
this afternoon when it accorded Mary
Pickford Fairbanks and her athletic
husband the most enthusiastic recep-
ton seen here in years. 1t left no
doubt in the mind Of those who saw
it hat England considers her Our
Mary" quite in the same light as
America does.
There were enormous crowds at
Waterlook Station when the movie
stars arrived on the boat train, call
ing enthusiastically for Mary and
Douglas" A small. gloved hand
raised the blind in the compartment
of the railway carriage, and the face
trimmed in the famous curls peeked
out.
1t was London's first glimpse of the
actual face London already knows so
well. In a flash the coach was sur
rounded by reporters, movie men,
photographers and the fans in gen.
eral.
Struggling crowds shouted: Come
out, Mary" Lets see the million
dollar smile, Douglas"
And that was the signal for Douglas
to push his way out of the carriage
and into the swarm. Here ne was sub
jected to a veritable onslaught Of
handshakers. With great effort a cir
Gle was cleared so that the movie
camera men might reel in a few hun
dred feet.
While this was taking place Mary
herself was hellSess.
What shall l do" she asked plain
lively, as though she had never faced
a camera before in her life. She
wasn't prepared for the reception.
But while Mary looked pale and
| tired-though excited-Douglas was
the most roncahalant mar in the sta
| ton. He linked arms with his wife
and said, Lets smile, Mary"
BLOW us a kiss, Mary" yelled the
mob. And Mary obliged.

The Big PIow Horses.
Idle, comfortless. bare,
The broad bleak acres lie:
share
Steadily nigh.
The big plow horses lift
And climb from the marge of the sea.
And the clouds of their breath on the
clear wind drift
Over the fallow lea,
Steaming up with the yoke,
Brown as the sweet-smelling loam,
Ihro a sun-swept smother of sweat and
smoke
The two great horses come.
Up thro' the raw cold morn
They trample and drag and swing:
And my dreams are waving with un-
grown corn
In a far-off spring.

ton Of powers, as was the case in
1914, the United States should regard
such a situation with raw concern
as a menace to its peace and free

means for the removal of such a
menace and be prepared when the

This is the second part Of the treaty

form. which it is said will be the model
for the national republican platform. 1t
follows approval of the republican re-
lection of the League Of Nations.
The cold blooded proposal is that we
