TELLS U. S. OF CIVIL WAR

London. July 6.-Eamonn de Valera
the republican leader in a message to
the people of the United States de-
clares the pact between the the Irish
parties has been torn UP. that civil war
has broken out. that the Dali Eireann
is not allowed to meet and that the
provisional government has assumed q
military dictatorship supported by the
British big guns.
The political pact between the Irish
parties which had ensured peaceful
elections which could have secured the
unity of the Irish army, and which was
the only hope of maintaining peace,
was ordered to be torn up, although
the pact had been ratified by the ma
tional assembly and by the national
convention of the Sim Fein.
The Dali Eireann has not been al
lowed to meet, and the provisional
government, relying upon the English
powers, has unconstitutionally assumed
a military dictatorship. and with En-
glish big guns English ammunition and
English methods of press censorship
and false propaganda, has made war
on the voluntary soldiers of Ireland
who are simply keeping their oath to
the republic and pr-Jenting the SOW
ereign independence Of their country
from being surrendered.
The danger to Ireland which is
feared most-civ7 war-has come
upon u.s." said Mr.. De Valera in his
message. Soldiers Of the army of the
republic have been attacked by forces
of the provisional government at insti-
CATION of English politicians who
wanted an immediate set-off to the
shooting of Sir Henry Wilson, in order
to avert from themselves political
consequences which they feared.
Says Want Republic
The Irish people want a republic.
They do not van an English king as
their king or an English governor
general or an English privy councillor
as legal supervisor. Under threat Of
a renewal of the infamous war many
of our people have been induced to
give an appearance Of submission, but
there are men and women who will
never submit and who will never pre-
tend to give an allegiance which il is
not their intention to render and all
these today sent their Fluctuations to
the great republic of America and
their greetings TO the descendants of
those whose fatihfUlness to the cause
of independence in some of the dark
hours that succeeded 1916 wOn for
America the proud independence she
now enjoys.

four hours that it now threatens TO
blow wide open the Conservative ship
of state unless Austen Chamberlain,
the party leader in Parliament. backed
up by his ablest associates. succeeds
ON Thursday in maneuvering it safely
into the coalition haven.
The immediate danger appears
greater for England's strongest party
than for the Prime Minister for If the
Conservative leaders cannot quell the
mutiny they viii go overheard and
strike out for the Premier's platform.
This will still give Lloyd George great
strength for an appeal to the country
II was said in Liberal circles tonight
that Mr.. Lloyd George contemplated
resigning the Premiership Immediately
should the Conservative rank and file
turn down Chamberlain.
Observers regard Chamberlain's
chances as being better to-day. al
though a definite cleavage has de-
veioped.( headed chiefly by the die
aards. The party heads are confident
that they {. carry the day but fear
that the majority will be irreconcil-
able which will weaken the influence
OF the party.
After another day OF conferences by all
sides it becomes clearer that the crisis
will break at the Unionist meeting
Thursday. If Chamberlain is then sue

Justice Tompkins Files Opin-
ion Challenging Jurisdic-
tion of Special Term.
TO APPELLATE DIVISION
Denial Is Made That Justice
MOrschauser Could Not Sus-
tain Referees Report.

The divorce case of James a. Still
man and Mrs. Anne L. Stillman was
reopened yesterday, when Justice
Arthur S. Tompkins Of the Supreme
Court filed an opinion at White Plains
challenging. the jurisdiction of the
Special Term which confirmed the
findings Of Referee Daniel Gleason
and asserting that the Special Term
before him in Rockland county was
the only one which had jurisdiction
in the case. The decision, automat-
ically reopening the case, sends II to
the Appellate Division for deter
mination of the question of jurisdic-
ton.
The general feeling among lawyers
familiar with the Stillman case last
night was that Justice Tompkinss de-
clsion was couched in such terms as TO
give ground for the belief that IL the
higher court sustains him in his juris-
dictional contention he will not sustain
the report of the referee. as did Justice
Joseph s. Morschauser. It was said
that if he had been inclined to agree
with Justice Morschauser he would not
have filed SEPARATE decision on any
feature OF the case and added TO the
confusion in which the whole matter
now seems to be entangled.
Mr. Stillman's attorney attempted all
along to have the report come befoso
Justice Tompkins for decision. and on
Septepber 20 obtained an order to show
cause on October z why the report
should not come before him at Nyack al
once. Counsel for Guy Stillman had OBJ
tanned a similar order rett:ttlble before
Justice Morschauser, but Justice Tomp-
kins contends that the order to show
cause before him was obtained several
hours before the other. Therefore, he
continued, his court had jurisdiction.
