has been suffered by the Spaniards
in the fighting with the rebellious Mo-
roccan tribesmen, says the Madrid cor
respondent of the Journal today who
quotes dispatches from Melilla, on the
northern Moroccan coast.
A large contingent of the tribesmen
attacked the advanced positions of the
Spaniards near Melilla and desperate
hand to hand fighting ensued in which
hundreds were killed or wounded, the
correspondent declares. General Sill
vestre, commander of the Spanish
forces, is said to have been wounded.
The fighting is still continuing.
Information from other sources, can
sidered reliable, tends to minimize
somewhat the gravity of the situation.
The Spanish battleship Alfonso XIII
and several gunboats have sailed from
San Sebastian for an unknown desti-
nation.

republican leader, today discussed the

forts today failed to establish the
identity of persons in the mob which
early this morning lynched Casey e.
Jones, convicted Of the murder OF
Mrs. j. S. Mosley. Jones. a white
man, was taken from Jail and hanged
to tree in front of the prison.
Coroner ]. e. Hullett and jury
of six spent the day on the investiga-
ton. The jury decided that the front
door of the Jail was pried open with a
crowbar and that two other doors
were broken similarly, but that use Of
an acteleyne torch was necessary to
force an entrance into Jones' cell.
Hardware merchants failed to identify
the new rope which the mob used.
A Hattiesburg citizen who was said
to have suffered serious injuries in
the fight Jones made upon his assail-
ants told Coroner Hullett he was the
victim of an unidentified man who at
tackled him in the street and that a
passing motorist carried him to the
Methodist hospital where he still is.
The patient said he knew nothing Of
the lynching.
About 40 men are said to have COM
posed the mob. Delay in the execution
of Jones, effected through an appeal
to the supreme court, had caused
much public resentment.

COL. EVANS

LABOR PROBLEM
AriOn Entertainments De.
light the Chautauqud
Audiences

81 am not going to discuss the
| labor problem" said Col. Frank
Evans at the Chautauqua Wednes-
day evening, because there is nc
labor problem. 1t is the leisure
problem.
Col. Evans substituted for Sher-
man Rogers, who was incapacitat-
ed from speaking by a throat
trouble, and gave a very sane and
thoughtful address. Col. Evans
served with the English forces
throughout the war and was deco
rated by his own government
France and Belgium for his brav-
cry. He is now counselor for the
American Labor board and has for
many years made a close study OF
industrial problems.
He said the war was fought for
an ideal-the triumph of right over
might-and that the same struggle
was now going on in the industrial
world. If it was not settled har-
moniously-if each side did not see
the other fellows viewpoint, an
other war would be inevitable ID e
urged his hearers not to be influ-
enced by half truths from soap box
orators, stressing the thought that
the belief in half truths was our
greatest menace. He spoke of the
adjustment of all difficulties in a
large New England factory by the
establishment of foremen's classes
which were attended by represen-
tatives from the various rooms IN
the plant and cited this as one way
to help solve the industrial prob
lens.
The prelude to the lecture was
given by the Arion entertainers
and was highly enjoyed. Anne v.
Baker was an exceedingly clever
artist, her dancing doll, her anus
ing ventriloquist act and her clay
modelling eliciting much applause.
Master Rouse of the Trinity
church boy choir in Boston ap-
peared in two solos with the harp
accompaniment which displayed
his soprano voice to good advan-
tage. Pearl Gonser played excep-
tionally sweet on the harp and
Charlotte de Volt as concert vlo-
linist was verv pleasing.
THURSDAY night the New Eng
landers, trio of three young lad
les, will give the musical prelude,
including violin solos, character
readings and singings. Brush, the
great magician concludes the pro
ram with his mysterious tricks.

DE VALERA INVITES
SHUTS TO CONFERENCE

LONDON, July 7-Premier
Lloyd George stated in the House
of Commons today that he under
stood General J. C. Smuts, the
South African premier, went to
Ireland on Tuesday last on the
invitation of Eamon De Valera.
! Asked whether he conferred with
General Smuts before the latter
went to Ireland the prime minister
replied laconically that he saw
General Smuts constantly. In
answer to another query Mr..
Lloyd George said none of the do
minion premiers would attend the
proposed Irish conference in Lon
don. General Smuts was received
in audience this morning by King
George, the latter having shown
keen desire to be informed Of
every move in the direction of
pace in Ireland.
General SHUTS has been invited
to attend Fridays mect;r in Dub
In between Mr.. De Valera and
the Southern Unionis1s but thus
far has not definitely answered. He
his observed that he failed to see
vfat useful purpose his attend
aEce would serve. In ~: authentic
quarter it was declared today that
recent utterances annd acts of the
Sim Fein leaders we're considered
to indicate recession from their
demand for an Independent Ireland
and to implv willingness to ac-
ccpt as talking basis a Omitted
