Irish Get Bonus
But Little Money

Dublin-Recorders and judges are
daily awarding thousands of pounds as
compensation to people who have suf-
fered loss or injury during the fight
ing with the British forces; but few
of these awards seem to materialize in
hard cash. There is no money with
which to pay them.
Sir Hamar Greenwood, secretary of
state for ireland. answering an inquiry
in the British House of Commons, put
the total amount of awards to Septem-
Der 80 last at 100000; but the
amount involved in the 26 southern
counties is at least E10 1000 900, while
another 100000 has to be added for
the area in Ulster.
Some Of the claimants are Sim
Feiners, and other are business men
who took no part in politics.
When an award is made, the local
authority is supposed to levy special
tax for the purpose; but since Sim
Fein assumed political control Of the
country, no local authority in southern
Ireland has imposed such a tax.
For the great mass Of sufferers there
is no prospect of relief, and how the
thousands of claims already granted
are to be met puzzles everybody, in
Guiding the claimants.

Tip of Capture Proves False.
(By Associated Press Leased Wire. }


Chicago-At $3.50 a. m. police re-
ported they believed they had Tommy
O'Connor surrounded in house on the
south side. Rife squads and teaf gas
bombers equipped with bullet proof
steel shields mounted on wheels were
dispatched to the scene.
When police reached the house a
surprised man appeared and identified
himself as Bishop Charles Anderson
Of the Episcopal church. Police be-
lieve some one with grudge against
the bishop sent them on the man
hunt to his home.
The question of O'Connor's legal
status if he remains at liberty past
the hour set for his hanging Thurs
day, was cleared up today by the an
nouncement of Assistant States At
torney Heath who prosecuted 0'Con-
nor, that he would appear before Judge
scanlon on Thursday to ask that
0'Connor's sentence be prolonged. He
said this would be done at each term
of court until O'Connor is captured, OBJ
waiting the necessity for new trial.

MICHIGAN PRISONERS
in BLOODY REVOLT
Warden is Stabbed and is in Serious
Condition But Escape is
Prevented.

Marquette, Mich.-Miehigan state
policemen men were standing guard in
Marquette prison today following a
riot among the prisoners yesterday
morning that resulted in the serious
stabbing of Warden T. B. Catlin, the
beating of Deputy Warden Fred Men
henniet and the perhaps fatal wound
ing of the latter's son, Arthur.
Three inmates of the prison who
are charged with leading the riot, were
to be logged in the institutions bull
pen today, the punishment having
been ordered by Charles Blaney, of
Kalamazoo, chairman of the Michigan
state prison commission.
Warden Catlin, who received nine
knife wounds, is in a serious condi-
ton. Young Menhennit was stabbed
in the lung.
The outbreak came in the prison
chapel while large number of the
prisoners were witnessing a moving
picture performance. Gypsy Bob
Harper, Jasper Perry and Charles
Roberts, all of Detroit, are alleged to
have rushed upon Warden Catlin in the
darkened room and to have slashed
him with knives stolen from the prison
kitchen. Arthur Menhennit, who was
visiting his father at the prison, in
tervened and received a knife thrust.
A prison guard summoned by one of
the prisoners, held the revolving in
mates at bay with his rifle and sue
ceeded in marching them to their calls.
The three men charged with being
ring leaders in the insurrections were
aided by several inmates while another
group came to the defense of the pri-
son officials.
Harper had expressed i'll feeling
for the warden because his privileges
had been revoked following his capture
after an escape three months ago.
Inmates at the institution were re-
ported to be quite today.

NEAR DEATH IN
CROSSING CRASH
North Shore Train Hits
Auto of J. J. BarrOws
at Grand Avenue.
TRAIN LEAVES TRACKS

Jacob j. Barrows, town chairman of
the town of Somers, narrowly ESCAPED
with his life at eleven o'clock this
morning when a fast Milwaukee ex-
press electric train on the North Shore
bodily lifted the Buick autom obile that
Barrows was driving and hurled it into
signal pole at the Grand avenue
crossing OF the North Shore tracks.
Barrows was pinned underneath the
automobile wreckage and was helpless
until aid arrived from the Nash Motors
factory. Barrows escaped great bodily
harm and at the Kenosha hospital
where he was rushed after the acct
dent, it was said that he was all right.
with the exception of some bruises and
cuts on his arms.
Train Runs on Ties.
The first car of the three-car electric
train was derailed and ran on the ties
for distance of 841 ties. Luckily for
the passengers of the electric train.
the cars kept within three feet of the
rails as another foot would have sent
the train crashing into the huge poles
that hold up the current bearing wires.
There were several Knoshans on the
train, including Logan Dayton, on their
way to Milwaukee and the escape of
the passengers in the first car of the
train is considered nothing short of
miraculous. h5
The police are handicapped in their
investigation Of the accident as they
are unable to find anyone who was ac-
tually an eye witness Of the affair.
While there is an automatic signal
there which rings bell and at the
same time swings a red light to and
fro, it is not known whether the signal
was working. The electric train was
under the guidance of Motorman Boos-
niger with Conductor H. Forbes in
charge. Neither Of the two collectors,
Becker and Graf, aeould give any light
upon the accident.
Reconstruct Tracks at Once.
Workmen for the North Shore began
Immediately to reconstruct the tracks
and pick up the wreckage that was
strewn along the track for distance
Of several hundred feet. Scarcely two
parts of the automobile are together
and the signal tower into which the
automobil was thrown, was snapped
off at its base like match stick. The
police ambulance was at the scene of
the accident three or four minutes af-
Ter it happened and took charge Of the
investigation. Chief Of Police Logan
left matters up to Secretary Meissner
who got at the facts of the accident.
Passengers Escape Unhurt.
There were scores of passengers
aboard the three cars making up the
Milwaukee special and while they were
thrown out Of their seats when the car
left the track, not one of them was
found to have suffered any injury
Many of them left the cars and aided
in the work of picking up the wreckage
from the tracks and all of them seemed
to be satisfied to get off as easy as
they did.
Barrows was driving into the city
from the west and he did not see the
approaching train.

A Touch of China
i'm Capitol Hotel
(By David L. Rlumfeld)
(By limited Press)

Washington-Th no need to
take boat from the coast to see China
today. All you have to do is to buy
a railroad ticket and board your Pull
man for Washington.
Ask for the Cairo hotel when you
get there, and once inside it's doors,
you will find yourself in China.
The "Cairo" which is the headquart-
ers Of the Chinese delegates here,
ought to have been labelled the "Pek-
in" Inside the hall is the inforna-
tion bureau and here Chinese gentle
men sit at desks, long ink brushes
stuck in holders by their side, for
most of the inner correspondence of
the delegation is written in the char
acters of old China, save when the two
thousand charactered typewriter is
brought into play.
The walls of the information bureau
are lined with pigeon-holed cases, each
pigeon-hole bearing docketed files,
their outsides facing the room, weird
with Chinese hieroglyphics for all
the world like the washing packages
in a laundry.
Whizz up to the seventh floor
in the elevator and you find yourself
in long corridor which smells sweet
ly of Eastern incense.
Here the delegates have their offices
and here, too, the serious work of the
delegation is done. All the notices on
the walls are printed in Chinese.
When a delegate or an official wants
his stenographer, he picks up a lit
tie red lacquered stick and bangs on
little silver gong. In walks the
stenographer-just like that.
Higher up in the hotel are the
sleeping quarters Of the Chinese where
all the beds have been turned to the
East. so that we face Pekin" the
Cinnamon say.
And in the darkness of the night.
little candles burn while the delegates
sleep sound in their beds--the candles
which avert disaster and drive away
the evil spirits.

What is believed to have been an
attempt to assassinate Deputy Sheriff
Stanley Rauen and George Sullivan,
his friend, took place just after
eight o'clock Friday night when I'M
known parties fired two shots at an
automobile in which the two men were
riding. The shots whizzed past the
faces of the two men but neither was
wounded and they fled from the scene
of the shooting and returning to the
city reported the case. to the sheriff's
office. The shooting took place at a
lonely point along the Wood road a
half mile south of the Pike River
road and acting under the suggestion
that it may have resulted from q
band of moonshiners search warrants
We're secured in the Municipal Court
this morning and band of half a
dozen deputy sheriffs went out to
search the various houses in the
neighborhood of the shooting. The
warrants were directed especially
against the NESTS" of beet weeders
in that neighborhood and it is expected
that lot of places would be search
ed before the officials returned to
the city.
Deputy Was Unarmed.
Deputy Rauen was unarmed and he
was not on official duty. Sullivan had
desired to demonstrate the operation
of an automobile to Rauen and the
two had driven west along the Burl-
ington road just after eight o'clock.
They turned into the Wood road and
had gone about mile when they had
some trouble with the automobile. 1t
was stopped in the middle of the road
and the two men got out. As the
car stopped it was greeted with a
volley of frozen dirt and stones. The
men looked about to find the reason
for the attack and Rauen took flash
light and began looking about the
car. At the first flash of the light
there was the rattle of musketry and
two shots came directly at the auto
mobile. Rauen disposed of his flash
light and the two men kept under COW
er until they could get the automobile
working and they got away. Only the
two shots were fired at the car.
deputies Search in Vain.
When Rauen and Sullivan returned
and reported the case at the Jail dep
uties were at once cent out to search
for the men responsible for the shoot
ing. It was nearly ten o'clock and al
though the deputies searched all along
the road they did not find a. sign of
any one. The little houses used by
the beet weeders were as dark as night
and there wasn't sign of light or
activity at any place along the road.
It was admitted that there has been
suggestions of moonshine operations
in this section of the county and the
officers believe hat the shooting was
the result of moonshiners who want
ed to deter the officials from making
a raid.
