STRIKE OF 10000 STARTS.
Workers on Misses and Children's
Dresses Out.

New York, March 9--Approximately
10000 workers in misses and ehildren's
dress factories went on strike to-day
it was announced at the headquarters
of the international Ladies Garment
Workers union, which claimed that the
industry in Greater New York was
practically tied up.
Union officials said that the strike
had been called for the purpose of es-
tablishing minimum wage scales, re-
gaining the wage rates in force before
the recent reductions, and forcing the
entire industry to recognize the union
and sign agreements.
No disorder was reported.
The feather boa industry, it was an
nounced also was tied up by a strike
of 1900 members of the Feather Boa
Makers union. The workers demand
a union shop and a 44-hour week.

ALLIED GUNS
IN THE STREETS
Machine Guns, Tanks and
Other Paraphernalia of
War in German Cities
AND 1000 TROOPS
HAVE MARCHED IN
Populace Of Three Cities
Take the Occupation in
Indifferent Spirit

Dusseldorf, March 9.-Although =
600 French, British and Belgian sol
diers were to-day occupying Duessel-
dorf, Duisberg and Ruhrort, the peo-
pie of those cities were proceeding
about their affairs with apparent indif-
ference to the presence of the allied
forces.
There were no signs to-day Of any
immediate labor movement by German
workmen as an outcome of the occupa-
ton, the effort of agitators to bring
on the long threatened general strike
in protest against the imposition OF
the allied penalties having failed. This
refusal of the workmen to strike, at
least for the time being, is attributed
by the leaders to poverty which would
not admit of their existence without
their daily wage. The temper of the
laborers in the Essen district, however,
is reported such that it is feared the
agitation may develop menacing sit
uation there.
Allied troops to the number of 5000
with four tanks and three river fiotil-
las, are stationed here, but the mill
tary are not in evidence except that
double sentinels are at the street cor
ners with machine guns.
Alongside of the order OF ihe French
general of occupation which was post
ed in public places was the proclama-
tion by President Ebert calling the
people TO bear up peaceably under the
entente's slavery" General Degoutte's
order places the miners and "other
functionsries of the public utilities"
under control. 1t likewise forbids pas
senger train service, except for work
men and international travellers. There
have, however, so far been no cancella-
tions of trains or other changes in the
service.
General Gaucher, commanding the
French troops in Dusseldorf, visited
the burgomaster to-day and told him
General Degoutte had no objection to
the meeting of the Rhine provincial
landtag called for Sunday, provided no
speeches were made with regard to the
occupation.
The communal police are remaining
on duty. The security police force
which was disarmed yesterday received
its arnfk hack to-day The men on duty
were reduced to the smallest number
consistent with the preservation of or
der although the burgomaster had
urged that the force be retained at its
former strength.

IRELAND GOT ARMS
FROM GERMANY IN 1916
But John Dewey Denied That Germany
Inspired or Financed the Easter
Sunday, 1916, Out
break,

Boston, March 9.-Germany's part in
the Irish revolution, which started at
Dublin on Easter Sunday, 1916, was re-
lated here last night by john Dewey of
New York. Denying that Germany in
spired the outbreak or financed it,
Dewey said the only bargain with the
Germans was for shipload of arms.
The speaker was the principal guest
at dinner of the Clan Na-Gael of
Greater Boston in observance of the
anniversary of Robert Erhmet's birth.
He told of the decision Of the Irish re-
publican brotherhood with headquar
ters in Dublin to start a revolution on
Easter Sunday, 1916, and said sympa-
thizers in this country received the
world in January, 1915, with the re-
quest that the Clan Ma Gael 10 Amer
lea furnish shipload of arms to be
delivered in Limerick as soon as pos
sible.
"The people in Ireland did not under
stand anything about conditions in
America at the time or they would not
have made any such request said Mr..
Dewey. 1T was not possible to get any
such quantity of arms in the United
States to ship out of the country with
out the knowledge of the government. '
"We wanted to help the Irish repub-
Iican brotherhood in their effort, so the
only recourse left us was to apply to
Germany for arms. The one condition
was that Ireland should receive no
money nor anything else but the arms
and it was lucky for us that that stip-
ulation was made | can truthfully say
to you that not a dollar of German
money has ever been received by the
Irish people from that day to this.
Our only aim was to get arms for the
Irish soldiers, who were to take part
in the uprising and the only place we
could get those arms was in Germany.
We sent fully 100000 to Ireland and
we have been sending money from that
day to this"

Opinion, Which Is One of
the Most Comprehensive
Dealing With the Ques-
ton of Prohibition, Ex-
rressly States That There
Must Be No Limitation
Except That Prescribed
By Congress.

Washington, D. c., March 9.-The
government is without authority to
prohibit or limit the manufacture and
sale of liquors, wine, or beer for non
beverage purposes, according to an
opinion by the attorney general, made
public to-day by the internal revenue
bureau.
The opinion, one of the most com
prehensiye dealing with the question
of prohibition, expressly states that
there must be no limitation on the use
of liquors for non-beverage purposes
except that prescribed by Congress in
limiting the sale of spirituous liquors
to one pint for ten days. The question
of limitation thus, the opinion said
said. is left to the good faith of the
physicians.
Subject to this limitation" the
opinion continued, obviously there has
pen committed not the judgment of
The commissioner of internal revenue
and the secretary of the treasury, but
to the professional judgment of the
physician, the question of the quantity
OF liquor that may be used to adyan-
tage as a medicine in each case.
AS to this question, think the in
tcntion was to leave the physician un-
fettered by government control, but
subject TO be dealt with criminally
and by revocation of his permit if he
acts in bad faith"
The opinion, existence of which be.
came known Sunday, was signed by
the then Attorney General Palmer and
was dated March g.
Mr. Palmer also held that the gov
ernment was without authority to linn.
it the number Of permits to manufac-
ture or sell within any state or local

Il cannot believe he said, that it
was the intention that the executive
officers should have authority to say

other equally reputable should not

Palmer said.

fiji. The remainder Of the afternoon

be tried to determine which ones can be
heard first with the greatest conven-
fence to the contesting lawyers.
