authority to the Irish provisional
government in the hope that that
government would be able to func-
ton efficiently. These hopes have not
yet been realized.
There is not the slightest reason to
doubt the Willingness of Michael Col
Inns and his colleagues, but events
so far have but exhibited their in
ability to impose their will upon the
unruly forces nominally under their
control. Mr.. Collins evidently Is un-
der daily fear of a coup d'etat on the
herents and has appealed to Ameri-
can Irish sentiment to enable him
to carry on until the voice OF the
people can be heard at an election.
Relations Are Embittered.
Meanwhile the relations between
tho north and the south have become
so embittered that Sir James Craig.
Ulster premier, has declined Dublin's S
overtures for a meeting. The only
colorado preteXtS arising out of the
treaty for friction between the north
and south are in regard to the border
line. Collins and Craig had appeared
to have reached an agreement on ii.
but q second meeting revealed unex-
pected divergence of views. and if
Sir James adheres to his refusal of
further parley then the matter falls
to be decided by a commission pro-
vided for in the treaty. This COM
mission is to be guided by economic
and geographical considerations as
well as by the wishes of pockets of
Catholics in the north and Protestants
in the south.
The disagreements and eruptions in
Ireland are a sad augury for that
unity upon which such high hopes
had been raised.
But the abiding feeling here is that
southern Ireland must "dree its own
weir" There is patience and SYM
pathy with Irishmen in their troubles
and at the same time an ardent wish
that they may speedily rise above
futile factional and lawless violence

TURK PEACE HOPE
LIES IN GOOD WILL
Nationalist Foreign Minister
Asks Change of Attitude
by Allies.

By the Associa ted Press.
CONSTANTINoPLE, February 1s.-
The restoration of peace in this dis.
turbed part of the world depends
solely on allied good will, declared
Yussuf kemal Bey, the nationalist
foreign minister. to the correspondent
of the Associated Press today.
Turkey accepted the war imposed
on her and fought unsuccessfully,"
the minister added, yet her demands
are so modest that denial of her
rights to existence will stiffen the
dete termination of the entire nation"
Commenting on the present status
of the straits. he said: The presence
of allied troops takes away the
nominal independence enjoyed by the
sultan's government. Why should
the straits be under allied occupation
instead of under a commission which
would represent all the countries
bordering on the Black sea that are
vitality interested in view of their
geographical position?'
kemal Bey stated that he was
going to the allied capitals for the
purpose of making clear that Turkey
desired peace along the lines of
national aspirations. falling of which
she will continue the struggle.

LANDRU'S ONE HOPE
|NM0NTREAL CLUE
"BIuebeard" to Die This
Week Unless Report Victim
Lived in Canada Is True.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS. February 1s.-Minister OF
Justice Barthou has requested the
ministry of foreign affairs to cable
the Montreal police asking for all
information possible concerning Mme
Heon, who is alleged to have been
living in Montreal a year after she
was supposed to have been murdered
by Henri Landru. Reports have been
received in Paris that she died a
natural death in the Canadian city
and was buried there.
Development of this clue Is the last
hope Landru has of escaping the
guillotine, to which he was sentenced
some time ago, following conviction
by the aSsizes court Of Versailles.
NJ. Moro-Giafferi, who defended
Landru in his trial, will be received
in audience by President Millerand
next Monday. Landru's execution
will probably take place early next
week, it was said today. unless the
Montreal clue should develop new
evidence.
MONTREAL Quebec. February IS
Montreal police officials said today
they know nothing of Nine. Heon, one
of Henri Landru's supposed victims.
who was reported to have been seen
alive here after the date on which
the French 'Bluebeard" was alleged
to have slain her.
They declared they believed the
message concerning her. which was
sent to a French newspaper, was a

GOLD-LETTERED FUR COAT
CHlLD'S IDEA OF PRESENT
FOR PRINCESS WEDDING

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, February 1S.-"What
wedding present would you like
to give to Princess Nary" was the
question given to a class of ten
year-old girls in a London school.
One child replied: "A fur coat
would let my mother choose it.
for she knows a good thing when
she sees it. 1t would be lined with
red satin and have her name in
gold letters across the center
Of it,"
Another thought white teapot
cover would be most appropriate
with the princess photograph
and that of her husband on one
side of it and the flags of the
United Kingdom on the other
side"
Some Of the other essays con-
tanned these ideas: "A very nice
umbrella-to use when it is rain
ing" "a bookcase with books like
From Log Cabin to White House
and Fox's Book of Martyrs"
One child said she would simply
wish the princess Health, wealth
and happiness" -

MEXICO CITY. February 18.-
Thirty men this afternoon crossed
the American border into Mexico
at Columbus. New Mexico. according
to advfces sent by Gov. Enriques of
the state of Chihuahua to the war
office. The advices said the men
were being pursued by Mexican fed
eral troops.
Rebel forces Of Rosalio Hernandes,
under close pursuit by federal troops,
have been driven from chihuahua
across the boundary line into the
hills of the state Of Coahuila, says q
message received by tho department
of the interior this afternoon from
Gov. Enriquez. The message added
left Ciudad Guerrero in search or
small bands led by Pablo Amayo. Joe
Moguiel and Manuel Gutierrez.
The statement made at the White
House in Washington yesterday that
while the American government was
desirous of q happy restoration OF
relationship with Mexico there was
no change in the situation prevailing
for the past eleven months was fea-
tur I'd by Ell Universal and FL Dem
ocrata today as the most tmpor rant
Eews Of the day.
Curious Over Details.
The Excelsior and Ell Heraldo. on
the other hand. treated the statement
more conservatively. although all the
osity concerning details Of what tney
claimed led the United States authorl-
ties four weeks ago to believe
recognition of Mexico might be ex-
tended Immediately.
George T. Summerlin. American
charge d'affaires. today professed
ignorance of any developments IN
recognition negotiations which might
cause belief that the United States
was prepared to extend recognition:
1t is known, however, that several
Mexicans within the past few months
have gone to Washington ana nave
allowed the impression to prevail that
they spoke in President Obregon's
name. 1t is believed. therefore. that
when the State Department ascer-
tanned the true status or these m
dividuals, who may have promised
more than the Mexican president pre-
viously stated it was possible to do'
the negotiations were Immediately
broken off and the status of relation
ship between the two countries re-
verted to that of a year ago.
1t Isl not believed here that the re-
ported rebel activities during the past
few days have had anything to DO
with the American governments de-
cision to stand pat. Reports today
from widely scattered regions did not
indicate that disturbed conditions had
spread to any section beyond those
previously reported. The war office
asserted that it's several campaigns
against small rebel bands were pro-
crossing satisfactorily.

LONDON. February 1s.-The parlia-
Lloyd George government SO far has
well maintained It's position.
But there are troubles in the offlng.
A commission has just reported
gross extravaganza in public expendi-
lures Difficulties have arisen about
the Genoa conference. But. worst of
all Ireland has again become a cause
OF possible diHntesration of the
coalition which 30 long has kept
Lloyd George in power.
Tho Irish news of the past week
has proved a profound disappoint-
ment to those Of US who have been
most optomistia Public opinion in
England Is incensed over the out
RACES. due apparently to mere sec
tional animosities.
The conservatives In the British
government have agreed to the Irish
treaty only reluctantly, and more
from a feeling of loyalty to their
for Irish self-government. The con-
servatives. after all, it must be re-
membered, are numerically dominant
In the government and, in the alb
sence of southern Irish representa-
tiveA they are indeed in q clear
majority over all other parties in the
house of commons.
The Significance of this is the fact
that the bill to give effect to the
Irish treaty has still to be passed
into law.
One would have thought that
southern Irishmen would have noted
these facts and 50 guided themselves

Three thousand Mexican federal

we want to be prepared for all event

No unusual conditions were OBJ

Carranza in 1913.
