Cheers Hoelz, Convicted Chief

on him after repeated clashes between
the presiding judge and the prisoner,
In speech following the sentence the
prisoner said he would have been ex-
tremely disappointed and dishonored
i he had received light sentence.
He said he considered life sentence
a great compliment, but declared that
the imposition of the death penalty
would have been higher one.
Hoelz became SO boisterous during
the trial that at one time the court
ordered him fettered and led out of
the room.
vorwarts, the Socialist newspaper,
pays a picturesque tribute to Hoelz,
comparing him to the hero of Schiller's
"Wallenstein Camp" and saying he
really is not Communist but "a hus-
sar, and his tragedy is the tragedy of
soldier following war" Compar-
ing some features of the present stu
alton in Germany with that after the
conclusion of the Thirty Years War,
Vorwarts points out that Hoelz repre-
sents the soldier who refused to re-
turn to the ways of peace, but prefers
t, lead the existence of a robber, defy
ing human laws. Hoelz is distinctly a
military character, the newspaper says.
Late last night the crowds continued
to cheer Hoelz, but Germany's modern
Robin Hood could not hear them. He
is behind heavy bars.

the owners further trouble, facilitate
resumption of German American
trade and establish the inviolability of

of the Raritan Arsenal, at 2:15 o'clock
to-day. causing the explosion of two
hundred pounds of black powder in a
magazine near by.

miles. The fire resulting from it was
communicated to the grass, where it
spread rapidly, and firemen were called
from Metuchen, Raritan, New Bruins
wick and Piscataway Town to fight the
flames. which threatened to consume
several dwellings.
There was danger, also, that the ar
senal buildings, where explosives are

clared to be out of danger.

was hurt by the explosion and fire.

vestlgate the reports concerning the

Jewish Sabbath Candles
Cause 20 Fires i'm Hour
Pickering Tapers Ignite ORA
peries While Families Are
Out of Rooms

Candles, lit last night by the Jewish
residents of the lower East Side, in ac-
ceordance with the custom of their Sab
bath, were the cause of twenty small
fires within une hour.
The fire companies in that district
were continually on the jump dashing
here and there to extinguish some fire
that had started when the occupants
of an apartment had gone out to get
the air and had left their candles
burning. In almost every case the
candle flame had ignited some drapery
and started the fire.
The truck of Hook and Ladder Com
pany s stalled in Canal Street, near
Forsyth. So it was that Deputy Chief
Helm, experimenting the ire at SO
Chrystie Street, was surprised to see
the personnel of No. come tearing
along, with axes and hooks, all piled
into touring car that they had com
mandeered for the occasion. The fire
was out, however, before they got
there.

Male More Deadly Than
Female on Coney Beach
Lawyer, After Looking Them
Over, Says More Men Wear
Immodesf Bathing Suits

The malc bather at Coney Island is
q greater offender against common
decency in his bathing attire than the
female bather, according to the state
ment OF Patrick L. Lotus, lawyer
representing residents of Coney Island,
before the Aldermanic Committee on
General Welfare, which held hearing
Yesterday on the proposed ordinance
regulating the bathing suits of women
on the beaches in the city.
Mr.. LOTUS declared that only one
female bather out of fifteen wore an
indecent costume--he had counted
hem-whereas among the male bath
ers only one in fifteen was properly
clad The aldermanic committee will
take the matter under adyisement.
The proposed ordinance provides that
female hathers over ten years of age
shall wear costumes consisting of
boomers or tights, with stockings to
meet them, and skirts extending to the
knees. and waists that shall cover
shoulderbiades and bosom, Several
residents Of Coney Island appeared
and urged the passage of the ordinance.

he showed out his hand. "Well, we'll
an 1rishman," he said as he greeted
O'Brien with hearty grip.
Comes Back Smiling
The cross-examination was inter
rupted for the moment by Secretary
to the President Christian, who sig
nified that the President awaited the
Admiral. The interview lasted but five
minutes, and out strobe the sailor from
the Presidents private office, debonair
and smiling. The correspondents
closed in again.
"Now l know what you're going to
ask, and I'm not going to say word
about it," said the Admiral, getting
the jump. "You know the President"
he went on. "You know how cordial
he is, and how pleasant"
He started toward the exit, changed
his mind, stopped, and then said: eyes,
| spilled the beans and | got what was
coming to me. l dIdn't know it was
loaded as much as it was" This last
accompanied by a broad grin.
II am sorry to embarrass the Adj
ministration," he resumed, his face
becoming serious, "but now I'm going
back to Newport and | expect to stay
there for some time" and with wave
of the hand he was gone. =
From his attitude the reprimand
given him by the Secretary of the Navy
was the very last thing on his mind.
Due to the fact that he was ordered
home and his leave curtailed, his pass
age and that of his wife was paid by
the government, an item averaging
close to $1,000. He had booked return
passage on the Olympic for the 18th
anyway, and as result of Secretary
Denby's order saved money on the re-
turn trip.

BERLIN, June 2a.--More than 10000
Communist sympathizers assembled
last night in driving rain in the
Lustgarten, in front of the palace of
the former Kaiser, to demonstrate
their loyalty to Max Hoelz, Red leader,
who had just been sentenced to life
Imprisonment for his share in the re-
cent Red revolt. The demonstration
came off despite the prohibition of
Police Chief Richter.
Army policemen, with rifles and ma
chine guns concealed in nearby places,
watched the demonstration and pres
pared to halt the crowds If they at
tempted march up Inter den Linden
toward the area embracing Wilhelm
strasse, the Chandeliers Palace and
the Reichstag.
The crowds flocked to the Lust
garten in response to fiery appeal in
the Red Flag, the Communist news
paper, which called for mass action
to free Hoelz and all political pris-
oners.
Although the prosecutor had de-
manded the death penalty for Hoelz
the court pronounced a life sentence

Agreement Designed Only
as Aggressive Measure on
Part of Two Principals

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June 3D.
New York State Bankers Association
at the Hotel Ambassador here tonight,
Sao-Ke Alfred SEE, Chinese Minister to
the United States, made a sensational
attack upon the Anglo-Japanese agree
ment. After declaring that the rule
MAKE no speeches" was a good one in
general to follow, and referring to the
Admiral Sims episode, the Chinese En-.
voy declared that on questions of the
day it is sometimes desirable for pub
lie men to make their views known in
order to clear the atmosphere. Re-
ferring to the Anglo Japanese agree
ment, he said:
"What is the Anglo-J Japanese alli-
ance? 1t is a warlike measure desired
by England and Japan to protect their
interests in the Far East The alliance
has ten-year term, which will expire
in July next. Accordingly, the ques-
ton is now before the two countries
for the third renewal.
"You will observe that this alliance
has a good deal to do with China, but
China has nothing to do with it. Here
is an agreement vitality affecting China,
but China has not been consulted in
it's making. You will agree with me
that any nation would resent such
treatment. The Chinese people have
good reason TO object to renewal of
the alliance.
"The Chinese people regard the situa-
tion as intolerable. They are aroused
as nation and have raised their voices
against it. The preservation of peace
in the Far East is a matter of such
supreme moment that it not only con-
Germs England and Japan, but other
countries as we'll. China and the
United States ought to have something
to say in the matter.
"unless China and the United States
become partners to the agreement
cannot see how peace in the Far East
can be made endIIrinpO
