SENATE APPROVES
BALL AMENDMENT
Adopts Clause Which Sends
Rent Disputes Direct to
D. c. High Court.

The Senate today adopted the Ball
tion.
The amendment provides in effect
that tenants who offer to a landlord
the rental fixed by the Rent Commits
sion cannot be cvicted by ordinary
municipal court process, but must go
to the District Supreme Court.
Senator Sterling succeeded in hav-
ing the Borah amendment amended
so that landlords desiring possession n
OF property for their own use would
not be effected by the resolution.
A vote on the resolution itself was
narrowly missed today and probably

most important turn today when the Irish office announced
would not demand the surrender Of alleged Irish murder
ers before the peace discussions concluded but instead
will turn over and records to the South Ireland
parliament leaving the Irish government to deal with
them.
This was a direct face about from the previous atti
tude of the British government The government had
previously announced that the Republicans wanted on
murder charges would have be surrendered before the
peace discussions could be continued.
Officials of the Irish office expressed belief that
compromise from Eamonn de Valera is imminent
The suggestion that De Valera advised a compromise
with the English government and the acceptance of the
home rule bill is authoratively denied in Dublin On the
contrary it is stated by Sim Fen leaders that De Valera
is hostile to the home rule act "r

there. She said he induced her TO
leave home and live with him as his
wife. The Rev. Mr.. Densel and Miss
Hannenberg disappeared November

til December 8.

Densel was taken before Supreme

disclosed details of the trip on which
she accompanied the clergyman. She
said:
Dominic Densel gave me ring
"A wedding ring-on September 20. He
told me at that time l was married
TO him before God. that he was get
ting divorce from his wife. and
that his wife was no more to him
than the mother of his children. He
told me that IL l took that ring off
l would break Gods law.
"Well, anyhow. we went to Buffalo
on November II and stopped at the
Hotel Mcleod, from Saturday until
Monday morning, and we also spent
one night at the Hotel Iroquois.
He told me ne would have a divorce
inside of two weeks. He said he was
suing his wife for divorce, but that
] should not mention that to anyone.
He told me his son Richard would
mail the divorce paper to him.
HE BREAKS WITH HER.
"finally he told me If I came back
to New York with him he would get
the divorce papers and also $4,000.
He said he wanted to meet his son
Richard. told him l would not face
his son unless we had a marriage GER
tificatc. Anyway. On December we
went to New York and stayed at the
Hotel Athens. There we met Richard,
his son.
THE minister said to me: We'll,
Trina, I'll have to break with you
He took my ring away from me.
II cried and told him: NO. l can
not break with you. You took me
away and l will not leave you. You
told me we were married before
Cod"
Following these happenings. Miss
Hannenberg said she and the clergy
man returned to Passaic. They reg
istered as Mr.. and Mrs. Tensel at the
hotels. the girl said. The minister
had resigned his pastorate before
leaving, but on his return asked the
consistory to forgive him and REIN
state him. He was taken back into
the church as a member. Miss Han
nenberg and her parents were dis
missed from the church.
