AMERICAN HORSES
GIVEN TO ALLIES
Germany Using Animals From
United States Market for
Deliveries.
BIZ The Associated Press.

BERLIN, May 14.--Germany still is
short 100000 horses in her reparations
deliveries to France and Belgium. A
trial shipment of the animals from the
United States recently has shown such
a favorable average after inspection by
the Entente Commission that it is not
improbable Germany will depend upon
the American market for further de-
liveries
Only four horses out Of a shipment of
sixty-four which arrived May from
Baltimore were rejected by the allied
control officials. whereas so per cent. of
the animals formerly purchased in Hol-
land and the Scandinavian States failed
TO measure UP to the Entente's require
ments and were refused. Another cargo
OF seventy horses is on the way from the
United States to Germany.
The Central Governing Board OF the
Independent Social Democratic party, IN
an appeal to-day TO the German prole-
tarfat urges the, working classes OF
Germany to give the Government undi-
vided support in its efforts to carry out
the economic penalties imposed on Ger
many and the allied ultimatums condi-
tons with respect to disarmament and
the trial of war guilty.
The Governing Board demands that
the Government direct the seizure Of the
major portion of the profits accumulated
by Industries, commerce and the landed
and property classes.

THREE BATTLESHIPS
COME INTO PORT
Connecticut, South Carolina
and Michigan Join Fleet.

There was a lot OF naval activity
ashore, afioat and in the air around New
York city yesterday.
The battleships Connecticut South
Carolina and Michigan arrived in port
and dropped anchor for about three
weeks. with the seventy dcstroyers now
in the Hudson. The bluejackets received
eighteen days shore leave. and proceed
ed vigorously to enjoy themselves on
Broadway and other thoroughfares Of
bright lights. Residents of the city in
retaliation spent much time looking at
the destroyers and bigger fighting ships.
The aerial activity was that of the
New York State Naval Militia, which
inaugurated a Statewide recruiting cam
paign yesterday A big naval flying
boat. recently converted by the Aero
marine Airways Company into pas
senger carrying craft, took off near the
Granite State, in the Hudson River at
Ninety seventh street and flew down to
the Statue Of Liberty and UP to the
129th street pier with militiamen on
board. Pamphlets procaiming the Joys
Of the naval militia were dropped at
intervals. In all the big ship made three
hops along Manhattan's coast line.
Three Eagle boats OF the First Battalion
got under way and added to the naval

KCRFANTY LOSES IN
ran FIGHT FOR SILESIA
Berlin Hears Polish Revolt
There Is CoIIapsing.

BERLIN. May 14.-Collapse of the
Polish revolt in Upper silesia is expected
in authoritative quarters there, accord
ing to q special despatch received here
from Breslau. Important conferences
are in progress. and 1t Is believed that
.Adalbert Korfanty, leader of the Poles.
has lost his fight to secure Upper Silesia
for Poland
( The retirement of Prince Hatfield.
German member of the interallied com
Jnission at Oppeln. Is believed to have
been due to his failure to make good the
promise he gave the German populace
of Upper Silesia that order would be re-
stored within three days after the in
surrection began. The inability on the
part of the allied forces there to halt
abe advance of Korfanty's men made un-
tenable the position of Prince Hatfield.
and it is stated he realized his services
were useless under existing conditions.
Prince Hatfield gets credit for having
forced the concession which permitted
native Silesians and eligibles from out
side the plebiscite area to vote on the
same day.
( A wide gap between the declarations
Of Gen. Lerond and the interallied COM
mission, on one hand, and newspaper re-
ports on the other, is emphasized by the
Forpaerts. This newspaper states its
belief that Gen. Lerond, who has been
head Of the interallied commission in
Silesa, should have given the plebiscite
area the benefit of some of his con-
illusions by demanding allied reinforce
Ynents equal to the number of men en-
gagged in the Polish insurrection.

AQUITANIA SAILS;
STEWARDS RETURN
1874 Of the 644 Aboard, Nearly
All Union Men, Ignore
Strike Order.

SOUTHAMPTON, England, May H.
The Cunard Line steamer Aquitania
sailed this morning for New York. Pre-
dictions had been made by leaders of
the striking stewards that the liner
would have difficulty in getting away
because of the labor troubles among the
marine workers, but the officers of the
line had all along expressed confidence
that the Aquitania would leave on her
scheduled time. which she did.
OF the 844 stewards on board the
Aquitania when she sailed $50 were
volunteers from the clerical staff of the
Cunard Line. The remainder were
trained stewards nearly all union men,
who signed for the voyage despite the
strike order.
Sir Percy Bates, director of the
Cunard Line, who volunteered as a
steward, was not needed, but Assistant
General Manager Cottrel sailed as a
library steward. In the two days since
the amateur stewards signed on the
chief steward has been busy instructing
them in their duties. They have been
struggling with the intricate folding OF
table napkins and the particular way
cabin stewards have In laying blankets
The Aquitania carried $500 passen-
gers. The strike is generally consid-
II to have collapsed. There was a
surplus of ESQ volunteers for the Aqui-
tania, many Of them trained stewards,
and these will be distributed among
other ships. This morning all the stew
ards OF the Adriatic signed again for
the voyage to New York next Wednes-
day
