ASSEMBLY ADOPTS
 WORLD COURT PLAN AT MONDAY SESSION
Differs From Plan Formu- lated By EIihu Root, Es- peciaIIy in the Matter
 of Jurisdiction
By Associated Press

Geneva, December 13.-The plan for an international court submitted to the assembly of the League of Ma tions by it's committee which had been considering the subject, was unani- rnously adopted by the assembly at today's session.
 The plan as proposed to the assem . bly by the committee. differs in some respect to the plan formulated hy Ehhu Root and his associates who met last summer for the purpose of put lung the ideas regarding the fornia- tion of the court lneo shapes The greatest difference Is in the matter of Jurisdiction.
 The assembly agreed with the de- cision of the league council at Brus- sells that it would be impossible to get the necessary numbers of notifications by members for a plan permitting an aggrieved nation to cite another na- ton into court and it was decided to substitute more flexible plan under which member may or may not agree to compulsory arbitration. THE HAGUE COURT CONTINUES
  gation that the arbitration court at The Hague be abolished was rejected 1t being held that the new court will function, according to the rules and forms of law and that an institution organized for purely arbitratial de- cisions will still be required.
 The clause of the plSn regarding Jurisdiction reads.
 ''The Jurisdiction of the court com x... .f .fs st~l. it and all matters specially provided for in treaties and conventions in force. Members of the league and states mentioned in the annex to the covenant may either when signed or ratifying the protocol to use the pres ent statutes are Joined or at later moment, declare that they recognize as compulsory, ipso facto and. without special agreement with relation to any other nations with the same ob- ligation the Jurisdiction in all or any classes of legal disputes concerning the interpretation of treaty, any question of international law the ex- istence of any fact which, if estab- lished, would constitute breach of an international obligation and the nature CT the extent of reparation for breach of an international obliga- tion.

RESPONSE UNLIKELY

So far as can be learned from Sim Fein circles his speech was not regarded there as containing any terms which can be considered. The Sim Fein members of Parliament, it is declared will not take advantage of the safe conduct offer, as they consider 1t an attempt to induce them to sacrifice their leaders. It is suggested that the Irish republican Par liament might meet again as it has been

 Cork. December l3-The weekend of terror and wild destruction through which Cork passed left in it's train a terrible welter of ruin. There have been no fresh outbreaks of shoot ing and the conflagrations mostly burned themselves out, but today the finest part of the city lay a mass of ruins. In St. Patrick street, which was the main commercial artery of the city, solid blocks of business prem Ises, the most imposing in Cork, have been wiped out
 The city engineer stated today that the destruction was on scale too great for him to make an immediate estimate of the number of buildings destroyed. and in other quarters Ii was said more than 300 had been burned with the loss of more than 3,000.0 900 pounds sterling.
 It was a matter of wonder in Cork today that no one appears to have pctiShcu III the flames. rms was que largely to the fact that most of the business premises were locked up, while in other cases residents had been warned and fled. The terror which possessed the city Saturday night was unparalleled. Many resi- dents in the vicinity of Dillons Cross, where the military cadets were am pushed Saturday night, fled their homes in fear and spent the night in the fields.
 Throughout Sunday the panic con- tinued and an exodus from the center of the city occurred Strong, mobile bodies of soldiers took possession of he streets to prevent further acts of neendiarism and attempts at footing. The curfew hours passed quietly.
 Today life In Cork was strangely iuiet. with crowds gazing hopelessly and awed at the heaps of smoking -uins. The belief is general that the fires unquestionably were the result of
