SITUATION IN CUBA CAUSES GREAT DEAL
 OF APPREHENSION

Washington.-Thoug State De- partment officials are unwilling to say that intervention in Cuba is likely, it was freely admitted here today that the situation in the island republic is causing a great deal of apprehe nsion. Reports from Gen Enoch H. Crow der, now in Havana in an effort to clear up Cuba's political and eco- homie difhcltes, indicate lack of CO., operation on the part of leaders of both the Liberal and Conservative parties, with the Liberals apparently determined to bring on American in- tervention as the only means of secur- ing what they consider a fair solu- tion of the problem.
 President Menocal, according to Gen. Crowder's reports, apparently has been doing everything possible to hasten the bye-eiections which must be held in certain disputed districts before it can be determined defi- nitely who was elected president in the main elections last November The supreme court, however. which is commo only regarded as Conserva- tive, had consistently refussd tc speed up the process of deciding disputed cases. notwithstanding re- peated urging from Memocal.

 Dt1 1bLin

DubBn.-Six young Sim Feiners were executed at Mount Joy prison this morning for conp1icity in at taclzs upon Crown forces in Ireland.
 Thomas Wheelan and Patrick Nor an, who were convicted of participat- ing in the killing of British officers in this city, November 21-"Bloody Sun
 day''-were executed first.
 The executions caused a tremendous sensation and have had the effect of que11ing talk of further negotiations for the time being.
 Business was at a standstin, even the post office was closed. Outside of Mount Joy prison thousands were gathered.
 Many lznelt in prayer and the sobs
 and cries of lamentation filled the air.
 Inside the prison, within a few hundred feet of the spot where the
 six men met their death was Arthur Griffith, Sim F'ein member of Parlia- ment, vice president of the Irish Re- public and head of the Sim Fein or ganization. He is a prisoner. Attempts to secure a reprieve for | the six Republicans failed. Word was received from London early to- 1 day that the Home Office and the Irish office would not interfere. The authorities then made the final ar | engagements for the executions. It was decided that the men should be killed in pairs beginning at six o'clock after Wheelan and Moran, two others of the condemned men were ordered to their doom at o'clock and an hour later the final couple met death.
 The highest feeling was aroused
 over the execution of Moran who was formerly head of the union of Gro- cery clerks in Dublin His friends declared that he had been convicted before a British military court on the
 fHmsiest kind of evidence and that the testimony of his friends, who swore to a1ibi, was disregarded. Wheelan has two brothers in the | United States One of them is said l to be a soldier in the American army. l He was accused of shooting an Eng 1 fish officer to death on the morning | of 'fbloody Sunday but evidence was | given at the Court martial that he l was attending mass at the time 9ae | was alleged to have committed the | murder.
 The other four condemned men | Thomas Bryan, Bernard Ryan, Frank
 J. Flood and Patrick Doyle, were ac-
 cused of participating in an ambush | of British soldiers and policemen.

ELECTION OF SCHOOL HEAD AT MEETING
 SEEMS IN DOUBT

Bylaws which form the working chart for the Board of Election pro- vide for the election of a superintend- ent of schools at the meeting which will be held tonight. It is at this moment very doubtful if any election will be affected. Two of the Republi- can members of the board are ab- sent, Attorney John J. Pullman, be- cause of illness, and Dr. A. c. Zones is travelling. The Democratic mem bers have a clean majority of those who will be present. but nobody on either side knew today whether. some body would be elected Or whether the election would be put over to a later date.
 The Democrats as a body seem to be opposed to the reelection of Samuel J. Slawson, the present in cumbent, and some of the Republican memebrs of the board are not very enthusiastic in his interests. There is an entire dearth of candidates whose names have come before the public.
 William I. McAndrews and E. Everett Cortright were mentioned but each has withdrawn his name and said that he will positively not seek the superintendency. The better opinion seems to be the election will be put over to a later date.

 DISABLED CkRSv

The tale of a seven Fassenged To- conobile touring car to be used as a municipal service car was unfodded in the City Hall today. Secured last week ostensibly for the purpose of towing disabled cars to the munic- ipal garage, some see through its camoufage an official car for Mayor Wilson. The Mayor it is known, drove the car to New York and return the day after it's purchase, and his Persistent efforts to have the city provide an official machine lend color to the reports that he engineered the deal for a personal motive.
 Matthew Lucey, superintendent of the municipal garage, stated today that the car was a, secnd- hand ma chine costing only $500, and would be used as a service car at the garage. Others claim that $1,50O was paid, and scout the theory that a fine seven as a means of towing disabled ash and garbage trucks.
