despite repeated extensions of time al
lowed Mrs. Bergdoll the the property
had not been turned over to the gov

BITTER CIVIL VAR

If British Government Tries to Circum-

Belfast, Sept. 10 (By the Associated
Press Warning to the British gov
ernment against 'circumscribing the
powers of the new Ulster Parliament
was given by Hugh O'Neill, speaker OF
the Parliament in an address at Bally-
mena, county Antrim, yesterday.
ANY diminution of the rights and
privileges of the new Ulster Parlia-
ment as result of the projected ne
gotiations between members OF the
British cabinet and the Sim Fein," he
declared, would lead to a bitter civil
war in Ireland. 1t would mean war be-
tween north and south Ireland, the
horrors and misery of which we do not
like to contemplate. The calamity, as
Prime Minister Lloyd George has truly
said. would not be confined to Ireland.
"The war would become world wide,
he continued, hundreds of thousands
of people from Great Britain and the
empire would support the point OF
view held in northern Ireland and there
would be hundreds of thousands of
people from the United States and pos
sibly from the British colonies and de
Tendencies, who would come to the aid
of southern Ireland. In brief there
would be in Ireland war which would
embroil Great Britain and the United
States and would spread horror over
the earth

WOOD DUCKS PROTECTED.
Hunters Cautioned Against Shooting
Them.

Hunters are especially cautioned by
Major Harold P. Sheldon, state fish and
game commissioner, to beware OF
shooting wood ducks this fall. Ihese
birds. which are protected under the
federal migratory bird act until sept
l6, 1882, have increased treP +ndousiy
under protection, Major Sheldon SAID
In marshes and ponds where formerly
they were very scarce, they are now
found in hundreds. In some OF the
smaller ponds and rivers they are the
predominating species this season. A
federal fine of $50 bird should be a
substantial warning to all hunters.
In case of continuation OF the pres
ent rainy weather through the rest OF
the month, Major Sheldon hopes that
the season on grouse and Woodcoek
NAV be opened on Oct !. According to
the state game laws, the governor may
postpone the beginning OF the open
season in case of dry weather. -
The regular season for ducks VIII
open at sunrise on Sept. l6.
The commissioner has been present
ed with a mounted ring necked pleas
ant by William Moran, special state
warden. These birds, which are very
plentiful in New York state, are to be
raised in Vermont next year by varl'
GUS sportsmen's organizations, accord
ing to the commissioner plans. The
eggs will be obtained from breeding
grounds at Cornell university.

DISHONEST STEAMSHIP
AGENTS ARE BLAMED
BY President Harding for Any Hard
ships Worked By New Restrictive
immigration Laws.

New York, Sept. r. Hardships
worked by the new restrictive immi-
grafton laws apparently are the fault
of dishonest steamship agents, declares
President Harding in letter to Repre-
sentative Isaac Siegel of New York,
made public to-day by the congress
man.
Mr.. Siegel, who is a member of the
House committee on immigration and
naturalization, recently wrote the pres
ident seeking executive intervention in
enforcement of immigration laws-an
enforcement which the representative
declared was resulting ~ parents be-
ing admitted and their children sent
back, because they happened to arrive
after the couutry's admittance quota
had been filled.
IF | have. the situation correctly
presented, the difficulty must be
harged to the dishonest steamship
agents, who have brought TO this coun-
try innocent immigrants in spite of our
continued warnings during period of
very great leniency,' Mr. Harding said.
Il know how very persistent have been
the impositions which have been made
on the government agents who have
been disposed to be sympathetic and
more than generous in carrying out the
law
Mr. Harding said Representative
Siegels letter was being sent to the
department OF labor for further infor-
nation. If there are conditions such
as you suggest" he added, Il feel pref
~ confident that they are absolutely
unavoidable under the law

Chicago, Sept l2,-Authorities in
vestigating the double murder of Ber-
nard j. Daugherty, automobile sales

rope and then struck him over the head
with baseball bat.
Ausmus was mred to the basement
few seconds later and was tied up
and beaten until Church believed him

Leaving the bodies in the basement,

said he took his body in the new car
to the Des PLANES river and threw II
from bridge The next morning he
left in the new car, with his mother
for their former home at Adams, Wis.
