MAYOR is TIRED
BUT STILL WILL
ACCEPT NO FOOD
IRenuhIlcan a. ?. Leased Wirel


LONDON, Sept. 3.-The condition
of Lord Mayor MacSw1ney showed
no radical change tonight although
the patient was said gradually TO
be growing weaker. Sean Mac
Swiney, his brother, remained at the
prison tonight.
The Gaelic league announced to-
night that for the first time during
his hunger strike, the lord mayor
had complained to his wife of feel
ing very tired. The prisoner was
unable to converse with his rela-
tives He was still quite conscious
however, and his mind was as
clear and his will as strong as
ever"
Labor leaders this morning ad-
dressed an appeal to Premier Lloyd
George, asking the lord mayors re-
lease. The message said in part:
I'VE are convinced that the gov
ernments treatment of the lord
mayor already has seriously jeop-
ardized the hope of an early settle
ment of the Irish question on
basis of conciIiation, and appease-
ment, and has stained the name of
Great Britain with dishonor in the
eyes of the civilized world. BY its
persecution in prison of the lord
mayor of Cork, the government has
outraged public sentiment every
where and his death will bring
about a terrible explosion of anger
which can only lead to further
bloodshed in Ireland"

NEW YORK, Sept. 3-The plight OF
the disabled submarine SIS, whose
crew of 80 men was rescued early to-
day after being submerged for A
hours was first learned by the steam
ship Alanthus, which accidentally dis
covered the submarine off the Della
ware capes yesterday afternoon with
80 feet of her bow protruding above
the water, Captain E. o. Swinson of
the steamship General George w.
Goethals reported on his arrival at Ho-
boken tonight. Earlier reports were
that the General Goethals had located
the distressed underseas vessel by
means of a telephone buoy released
from the submerged craft.
The crew of the submarine owe
their lives he said, to the quick work
of Chief Engineer ". r. Grace of the
General Goethals and his assistant, r.
A. McWilliams.
The imprisoned men, Captain Swim
son said, had cut a small hole through
the hull and had stuck through a pole
on which was flying an undershirt.
The Alanthus was unable to rescue the
crew as she had no apparatus for cut
ting through the submarines hull The
crew of the Alanthus, however, be-
gan pumping air through the small
hole made by the undersea crafts
crew.

COMBINAT| RATES
ARE D|SAPPROVED IN
EXAMINERS REPORT
IRepubIican A. p. Leased WlreI

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3-General
disapproval of combination rates
based on distances east and west of
the Mississippi and Missouri rivers
was expressed in tentative report
submitted to the interstate commerce
commission today by Examiner Will
lam A Disque.
The report was drafted in connec-
tion with a complaint filed by the In
termediate Rate association, relative to
the class and commodity rates to Pa
cific coast cities and the intermoun-
tain territory from points east of the
Rocky mountains.
The disapprova1 expressed by the ex-
aminer if adopted by the commission
would result in complete change in
the method of establishing freight
rates throughout the country
Says Basis Unnatural
''The combination basis ordinarily is
abnormal, unnatural, unscientific, dis
criminatory and some may say un-
American" Examiner Disque's report
said. 1T can almost be said to be
prIma facie unreasonable. The car
riers had been regarded more and more
as one national system and the day
may not be far distant when We should
proceed to the establishment of joint
through class and commodity rates,
substantially lower than the combina-
ton of locals. between practically all
points in the country
The report added that tonnage
through the Panama canal was in
| creasing at such a rapid rate as to
cause one to believe that within A
comparatively short space of time, it
will reach a point which IL will be
felt in serious loss of tonnage han
died by the rail lines unless they have
in force appropriate measures to meet
the situation"

WASHINGTON. Sept. 3-Opponents
of woman suffrage received a tenn
popary setback today in their efforts
to expedite appeal from the decision of
Justice Bailey of the District of Co
lumbia supreme court refusing an in
junction to prevent Secretary of State
Colby from promulgating the suffrage
amendment.
Chief Justice Smyth of the District
of Columbia court of appeals denied
the petition of suffrage opponents as
tional league. for certification Of the
case to the United States supreme
court without waiting for decision by
the appellate tribunal
Lacks Authority
The chief justice held that he lacked
authority to certify under a decision
of the United States supreme court
which held that such eertification
could be made only where the decision
of the local APPELLATE tribunal was final.
AS there is a constitutional question
involved in the suffrage case there
would be a right of appeal from a de-
cision of the court of appeals to the
United States supreme court.
Counsel for the anti-suffragists,
however. have not abandoned hope of
getting the case into the highest court
in the land before election day and
October 4. will make a motion to ad-
vance the case on the calendar and
probably request that their conten-
tion be overruled in order that they
may appeal at once to the United
States supreme court.

revoke certain clauses of commercial
treaties brought no official announce

of the government.
State department officials, whose

the United States is a signatory mas

trayene the merchant marine act, de-
clined to say whether any decision had
been reached or any action taken.
Clauses of existing treaties which
must be revoked are those which In

United States and which also restrict
the right of the United States to irn-
pose discriminatory tonnage dues on
foreign vessels and on vessels of the
United States entering the United
States.
May Abrogate Treaties
Speculation has been widespread as
tions of this governments intention to
revoke such clauses. Officials have
expressed almost general belief that
the revocation of the clauses will lead
to abrogation of the entire treaties.
Many of the treaties cannot be abro-
gated except on a years notice and
this in the opinion OF some officials
will permit remedial legislation be-
fore the pact's expiration if it really
was not the intention of congress to
take such a radical" step as some Of
ficials believe.

MARION, Ohio, Sept. Slope that
the United States will take the lead to
OUTLAW war" and secure the perma-

a Homecoming celebration at Mount
Gilead, Ohio. a country town in his ma

Addressing a crowd from a street
booth where members of the American
Legion were soliciting funds for a
home for their local post. the Republi-
can nominee declared that he was will
ing to do anything short of surrender
ing the nations independence to attain
world concord. He maintained that
acceptance of the league of nations
as it was written, however. would in
volve a sacrifice of nationality which
no friend of peace should advocate.
To Show Gratitude
"1 want to show my gratitude to
these men in an effective way said
Senator Harding. turning to the former
service men, "by seeing that neither
they nor their sons nor their sons
sons shall ever be called to the battle
front again. I am not sure that / am
in complete accord with others to
the means, but if can speak the con-
science of America. we will lead the
world to outlaw war"
The candidate also declared the ma
ton must show practical. helpful gem
erosity' to the former soldier. adding
that it was unfair TO impose universal
service unless there was to be an ade-
quate expression of gratitude with the
return of peace"

cred by Senator Harding today. his
position in support of the cooperative
agreements for farmers having been
outlined a few hours before.
