Tension In Belfast Is Extreme Following Day Of Rioting
 As Result of Elections
FIGHTS ARE FREQUENT
Police Called Out To Quell Disturbances Between Pro-
 testants And Catholics

BELFAST, May 24.-(By The Asso- ciated Press.)-Ulster, which has been seething with excitement all day over the election of candidates to the new parliament which only Unionists will attend, if the secure the neces- sary majority-a foregone conclusion is regular babel tonight. with ex- treme tension<in some quarters. From early morning, it has been the task of the workers of the Unionists, Nation alists and Sim Feiners to get all their supporters to the polls, with the result that there has ben an unpre- cedente1 rush of motor cars through the streets and haranguing of voters.
 In all sections where Protestants and Catholics live side by side there have been incidents" which required the attention of G.e police
 Ballymaccarrett proved to be the hottest corner of the city. Many of it's residents are nursing sore heads tonight while the police. reinforced by black and tans and soldiers in armor- ed cars are in the possession of the street
 The trouble started when Protes- tants held demonstration outside of St. Matthews Catholic church, and was intensified when Sim Feiner raised a flag in a Protestant street. Stone throwing and few revolver shots were exchanged before police broke up the crowds and formed cor dons hetween the rival factions.
 In Lisburn and Count Down the Sim Feiners allege that their watch CTS were driven from the polling booths. and motor cars taken from their cahvassers. The other side charges similar treatment in the Sim Feln districts.
 "A disturbing development to the Unionists was the fact that a number of 'covenanters, men who pledged themselves in 1914 when Sir Edward Carson was raising his army, never to consent to home rule, abstained from voting on the ground that to vote for members of the Ulster parliament would be to break their pledge.

Hayes ranch where Teague was murdered and his body thrown in a well, and took the dead mans shoes, placing them on his own feet and resuniing his flight/ Later Bar nett wrapped his feet in gunny sacks, his trail indicated"
 = A posse surprised Barnett Monday night in Arastra canyon and two shots were exchanged, but the ohtlaw escaped, according to the sheriff. On several other occasions, the sheriff said, posses have been within few hundred yards of the hunted man, but the fugitive has always made his es- cape in the thick sagebrush.
 Late tonight one posse reported that Barnett was trapped in Ice House canyon, five miles south of Globe. The sheriff said he planned to lead large posse out at sunrise in the morning to take up the search.

 Not Need Intervention

PARIS, May 24E(By the Associat- ed Pressl-Premier Briand. question ed by a group of deputies before the meeting of the chamber today said there was no reason for the occupa- tion of the Ruhr region. because the aspect of the Silesian question had been changed, and if the Ruhr were occupied without the support of the allies it would be equivalent to aban- donment of the treaty of Versailles.
 The premier asked the chamber for vote of confidence on his policy toward Germany. He insisted that the chamber must assume it's respon- sibility as I have mine." if h wish ed the occupation of the Ruhr.
 If the chamber is not satisfied because l have not imposed imme- diate penalties, it will say so,' he added.

DRIVE IN NAVY BILL SHAT TERED
Personnel Of 10000 Voted Over Vigorous Opposition
 Of Economy Advocates

WASHINGTON, May 24.-The econ. omy drive against the $495,000,0 900 naval appropriation bill was shatter. ed in thesM ate today when many increases recommended by the naval committee were adopted.
 By a vote of 45 to 23, the senate adopted a committee amendment op- posed by the economy forces. provid- ing for a personnel of 10000 men as against 100000 authorized by the house. Afterward committee amend ments calling for increases aggregat ing about 42,50O.o0o were quickly ap- proved.
 The roll call on the navy personnel apparently broke the attack against increases recommended by the naval committee. The way also was paved for passage of the bill tomorrow ,or Thursday after prospective adoption of the Borah amendment for a dis armament conference.
 There were reports today of negoti- ations looking to restoration of ap prOpriations for new Pacific coast base at Alameda, Cal, and for con tinuing drydocks and dredging prof ects at Charleston, s. c.
 Party lines were broken in the vote on fixing the navy personnel at 100000. Thirteen Republicans vot ed to hold the personnel to 100000 but the loss of these Republicans to the committee provisions were offset by IA Democrats who voted to keer f20.000 men in the navy.
 Among committee increases adopt ed were s15,377, 900 for pay of per sonnel. $5.S00.O00 for reserve forces SS,7S3,OO0 for provisioningy $7.500. .O0( for fuel and it's transportation. and $5.00O. 900 for the marine corps Quar termaster department.
 Senator Lenroot. Republican oi Wisconsin, led the battle today against the increases and again warn ed the Republicans that the country vyuld not stand for them. He was joined by Senator Hitchcock, Demo crat of Nebraska, who announced he would vote against the bill if the committee increases should be sub stantially sustained.

ROAD ENGINEER PLAN RE
cEIvES ENDORSEMENT.

CElN I'D GNDOAs''A'A
our, anu aILer nearing all the
arguments the large gathering
present almost unanimously en-.
dorsed the new plan. Chairman
John N. Mackall, of the State
Roads Commission, was the prin-
cipal speaker and scored the anti
quated supervisor system Of road
maintenance. AS st. Mary's is
among those counties which have
adopted a better method, its citi-
zens will be glad to know that
Hartford has now dropped in line
for a permanent and scientific
road system.
Mr.. Mackall condemned Har-
ford's present system and advo-
Gated a roads engineer. He stat
ed that he knew of but six objec-
tions, five of them being the
present five members of the
Board of County Commissioners,
who, he said, were afraid of los
ing petty political prestige that
accrues from the present system
of assigning the mending of roads
to various individuals in the
county, who, he said, work the
roads only when it is most con-
venient to them and not when it
is most advantageous for the i'm
proyement of the roads.
The sixth reason, he stated,
was the type of road member who
will do actually $72 worth of
work and put a bill in for $l44,
which is promptly paid by the
commissioners without supervis-
ion or checking up. This sixth
reason is usually the sort of man
who will deal with perfect homes
,ty with his neighbors, but who
considers it more or less a smart
thing to take advantage of the
county, said Mr.. Mackall. He
also loses sight of the fact that
probably 100 others are working
the same game, and that he,
through his increased taxes, pays
excessively not only for his trick
but for the tricks of the other
hundred, Mr.. Mackall said.
Mr.. Mackall stated that nine
counties today have an engineer
and that there is no indication of
any return to the old system. He
called particular attention to Wi
comico county, which, he said.
has had a roads engineer for a
period of 10 years and has the
cheapest and best system Of coun-
ty highways i'll the State.
A vote of thanks was rendered
the speakers.
The chairman, E. A. Cairnes.
then asked the meeting for an
expression of its opinion, and out
of an attendance of about $50
there were only about three OPP
posed to the proposal for roads
engineer. There was comment
that not one of the County Com
missioners was present to hear
these State engineers discuss the
project, although it is generally
understood that they are opposed
to it.
