LAST CHURCH RITES FOR
LORD MAYOR or CORK
Terrence McSwccncy, Thirteen Days
Without Food, Is Anointcd
for Death.
LLOYD GEORGE is ADAMANT
Premier Refuses to Release Dying
Irish Mayor, Declaring Previous
Releases of Hunger Strikers
Followed by Murders.

LONDON. August 25.-Thc last sac
rament of the Roman Catholic. Church
today was administered by 4 Domini-
can father to Terrence AIacSweeney
lord mayor of Cork. in Brixton prison
here, where he is close to death from
his hunger strike. lie has taken no
food for thirteen days.
Almost at the moment the chap
lain was administering communion,
Premier Lloyd George announced in
telegram to the sister OF the lord
mayor that the British government
would not release AIacSwceney be-
cause of his strike.
Although the government may
waver and release him." said Father
Dominick, after tho administration
OF the last rites OF the church, "the
lord mayor is no longer troubled by
thoughts of his release. His sole con-
ISOLATION now Is his religion. He is
facing death with n bravo Christian
spirit" Tho lord mayors wife was
at his bedside today for two hours.
She broke down tho moment she left.
saying "He will be released shortly."
The lord mayor was too weak to see
any other sersons.
The lord mayor OF Dublin cabied
Lloyd George that .MacSweeney's
death would be an awful calamity
in Ireland.
In response to n telegram from
Redmond Howard, nephew OF the
late John Redmond. Irish leader, King
George telegraphed that the matter
OF release would receive Immediate
and careful attention.
Demonstration for Mayor.
There was demonstration outside
the prison today by a crowd of more
than 1000 persons. Many of tho men
were in military uniform. The thronE
had been aroused by the report that
MacSweeney was dying. He was still
unconscious this afternoon.
Lloyd George. in telegrap phed
statement today from Lucerne. con-
cerning the case of NIacSweeney. said
In substance that, whatever tho con-
sequences, the government could not
take tho responsibility OF releasing
MacSweeney.
The Premier declared ho regretted
MacSweeney had decided to stnrve
himself. but said that If he were re-
leased. then nil the other hunrer
strikers would have to be released.
"A law which is n respecter of per-
sons Is no law" Lloyd Georges state
ment continued. eff the Cabinet
therefore. departed from It's decision.
n complete breakdown OF the whole
machinery OF law and government in
Ireland inevitably would follow. The
release some weeks ago of hunger
strikers in Ireland was followed by
an outburst OF cruel murder and out
rage" -f
Snys Secession Impossible.
The Premier cited the crimo for
which Lord Mayor MacSweeney was
convicted and said 1t indicated he was
concerned in conspiracy against
the constabulary. defenders of order
In ireland, and that 1t was the gov
ernment's duty to protect these brave

IARlS, August Zo.-The destruction
of the Bolshevist armies now may be (
considered complete. according to ad-
vices received here. OF tho host which
swept down on Warsaw nothing Is
left but 10000 fugitives. Tho Poles
have taken $4,000 prisoners thus far:
but what is moro important they
have captured great quantities of
guns and materials. *.
1t is considered probable that tho
Soviets employed all their available
resources. and in their present condi-
tion Russian industries will take n
long time to replace them Conse-
nuent!y none of the Soviets are able
to find electives with which to seek
to restore the fortunes of their arms,
lack OF equipment will make them
without military value
Losses Hcnvy on Both Sides. "a;
During the last threo days there
has been heavy fighting in the marshy
valley of the Narew, between Ostro-
leonka and Lomza, where the Reds
sought to break through In the direc-
ton Of Binlystok. The losses have
been heavy on both sides. On August
20 the Poles carried all the passages
OF tho river. at this iuncture two
other Polish armies pursuing the Reds
from the West came up and consum-
mated their defeat

WARNS DRIVERS
Prison City Will Follow the Example
of keokuk and Burlington in
Prosecuting Auto
Drivers.

Fort Madison is. planning a cam
paign against auto drivers. The police
officials there will follow the example
of KeoKuk and Burlington and prose
cute violators. The Democrat says:
with Keokuk, Burlington and 9TH
er surrounding cities prosecuting q
vigorous campaign against motor law
yiolators, Fort Madison police Off
Gals announced today that the same
plan would be adopted here Chief
Haney stated that local car drivers
have BEEN m.aTned RnosIgh sand that
from nowUn tfeyswill Be Held to the
strict letter of the law
zone of the chief troubles which
authorities here have to deal with is
the lack of, and proper placing OF
number plates. Every car should
have two license plates, and accord
ing to the provisions Of the law it is
lust as great a. misdemeanor to oper-
ate motor vehicle, With one license
plate as lis without any. Motorists
who have lost one of their plates
may secure a duplicate for very
nominal sum by application to the
secretary of state. 1t is the belief or
Chief Haney.,that some citizens are
attempting to. operate two cars on
one set of license numbers.
Speeding and fights are other mat
tiers on which the department expects
to keep a close tab. The Santa Fe
avenue pavement and Fifth street are
the favorite places for speed drivers,
and before some serious accident oc'
ours in either of these two places the
chief expects to put stop to the
practice. E"~ -" 81. y
Definite steps toward vigorous en-
forcement Of the law will be taken
imediately, and it is well that local
car drivers see to it that the laws
are complied with, as failure to do
so will doubtless result in heavy
fine or Jail sentence
