FREE STATE TAKES
CHARGE TOMORROW
Provisional Government Will
End With Reorganization
of Parliament.

DUBLIN, Dec. 8 (Associated Press).--
The present Provisional regime in Ire
land will cease to exist next Tuesday.
when the royal sanction having been
given the Irish bill. following the certain
final passage of the bill by the House of
Lords. a special sitting of the Provisional
Parliament here will formally transfer
the responsibilities of Government to the
actual Free State Government The
present Dali Eireann then will become
the lower House OF Parliament and a
Senate OF sixty members will be con-
stituted thirty members being nominated
by the President and thirty elected by
the lower House. Tuesday the name of
the new Governor General also will be
announced.
The Irish Republican Bulletin to-day
contains a message from cannon de
Valera denying that the Irish people
had accepted the Irish treaty, and de-
claring that 1T has unequivocally de-
cided for and ratified the republic at two
general elections and maintained its
choice through three years OF terrible
suffering" De Valera adds: II repeat
my challenge. VIII the English Cow
ernmnnt withdraw it's threat of war and
pledge itself to abide by the result OF
the free plebiscite the Irish people have
taken to decide between a republic and
the proposed Free Slater
A letter signed by Liam Lynch, chief
of staff of the Irish Republican Army
accuses the Provisional Parliaments
army OF violations of the recognized
rules of warfare in the treatment Of
prisoners. 1t says in part:
you now are pretending to try Irish
republican prisoners before your make
believe courts. You already have done
to death five men after such mock cere-
monials. You now presume to murder
or transport soldiers who had brought
Ireland victory when you traitors sur
rendered the republic.
Next to the members of your Pro-
visionsl Government, every member or
your body who voted for this resolu-
ton. by which you pretend to make
legal the murder Of soldiers, Is equally
guilty. We therefore give you and each
member of your body due notice that
unless your army recognizes the rules
Of warfare In the future we shall adopt
very drastic measures to protect our
forces"
All the members Of the Provisional
Government and their supporters are
taking precautions against possible at
tack.
Enormous crowds in the streets to-day
watched memorial procession in honor
of the eight men recently executed by
the Provisional Government. The pro-
cession was headed by pipers and mem
bers of the Sim Fein women's organ
ization, the Cumann Ma Mbann.
Dublin had quiet weekend, but i'm

in the provinces. An official report to-
day told of taking more than seventy

in Kerry and Waterford.

OK BOARD CLEMENcEAU's SPECIAL
TRAIN, PITTSBURGH, Dec. 3.-Clemen
ceau wishes 1t to be understood that
he is not inviting the United States
to enter the League of Nations. He
was disturbed to-day because in some
quarters such an inference had been
drawn from his address in ST. Louis
yesterday.
81 don't believe in the League of
Nations, therefore it would be folly
for me to beg America to join it, he
said this afternoon while on his way
to Baltimore and Washington.
He has not departed from the belief
he has expressed in all four Of his
American speeches. That Is. he wants to
see France linked with the United States
and Great Britain in an agreement guar
anteeing French territory against un-
provoked aggression.
He believes the idea OF the League
OF Nations Is a fine one, but not to be
realized in a practical way at this time
owing. as he said yesterday at st. Louis,
ito the common state of mind of the
people"

Andrews Case Suggested
Precedent to Ex-Kaiser

n ARIS. Dec. 3.-The former
r German Emperor has been
= deeply interested in the trial
OF Prince Andrew at Athens. He
received hourly bulletins. and heard
the verdict about midday to-day.
He expressed himself as much re-
lieved. Whether his anxiety was
due to his relationship to Andrew
through his sister. the former Queen
Sophia, Andrews sister-in-law. or
fear that something dangerously
like a precedent might be estab-
lished, was not stated.

''The suggestion and insinuation are
sought to be conveyed that such vio-

Rail Injunction Case.

Referring TO the railroad injunction
case. the Attorney-G General defended his
action by quoting the conditions at the
time the injunction was obtained and
added:
"In conclusion 1t Is respectfully sub
mitted that If your honorable committee
should desire to hear the evidence upon
which the application for the temporary
restraining order here complained or
was made in the case Of the United
States of America versus the railway
employees department OF American
Federation of Labor and others, and
will so indicate, such facts and the law
relating thereto will be submitted when
ever desired"
Replying to the charge that the At
torney General obtained the indictment
Of Charles w. Morse and the iatter's
son in connection with the Virginia
shipbuilding case, but failed neglected
and refused to seek the indictment OF
other directors of the company equally
guilty, Mr.. Daugherty informed the COM
mittee that the condition of the Depart
ment of Justice with the Morse indict-
ments was solely formal, that the entire
case was under the Jurisdiction Of the
United states Shipping Board. and cited
the facts In the case to prove the state
ment.
The charge that the Attorney General
failed to seek the indictment OF the
principal attorney. being the holder of
a position OF great responsibility and
trust in the office of the Attorney-Gen-
eral" is "as false In fact as 1t is know
ingly untrue to those responsible for the
allegation in question"

Continuing his personal survey OF
the business Of tho country Roger w.
Babson statistician and business ad-
Ing executives reports his findings on
the central eastern states 40 follows:
New York. Philadelphia, Baltimore.
and Sthe other largo cities. south OF
New England prosper largely from
three sources.
/. Foreign Trade. the sale of goods
to foreign countries even although the
goods came from the interior OF the
country.
2. Jobbing. that is the distribution
OF merchandise to retailers In the
tributary territory.
8. Investments. including tho IN
terest received from stocks and bonds
together with the prontN involved in
purchases and sales Of securities.
There Is OF course a certain amount
OF manufacturing in these cities--es-
pecially Of garments and clothing. but
they are not primarily industrial
cities.
Foreign trade Is severely crippled
will show no better than 1921. There
fore we may expect very little income
from this source.
The jobbers will hold their own in
1922 and should have an increase In
orders. Although retailers are doing
comparatively little business yet their
stocks are low. and they must buy
certain amount OF goods whether they
want to or not. II the retailers would
only cut prices further, which could
be done by a decrease in operating
expenses, the jobbers would have good
business In 1922.
The real Improvement. however,
which New York and these other cities
are to witness will come about through
financial conditions. The bond bust
ness should be very good In 1922. The
stock market should work upwards
and there may be even an Old fash
ioned boom before the year comes.to
close. Deals and consultations will
be put through, dividends will be re-
sumed and other things will happen
which should enhance the value OF
securities. or course, no wealth is
| really produced by these increased
prices. but they affect the prosperity
CT these cities. All stock market ac-
tivity always brings money from the
| interior OF the country into the cities
and most OF II fails TO remain there
The small interior towns furnish the
lambs; the cities do the shearinK: and
the wool remains in the cities tc
swell the bank clearings and be reg
istered as prosperity. The eastern
cities will see much more OF thi.
money In 1922 than they have seer
| for some years.
In a similar way the entire states OF
New York. PENNSYLVANIA and those
in this eastern group prosper like
wise. With the exception Of stee
cities which will ind another qule
year in 1922, the rest OF this eastern
E..ction should feel better. ARricul.
tsrally these states simply feed theil
own cities with dairy products, veg
etables and some grain. The centra

Can Rishts s.rctly Rs.srssd

part OF New York has considerable
manufacturing and, most OF these
cities Will fare better in 1922. The
same II true of PeAnsylvania and the
other sections.
The electrical industry OF Schen.
ectady and Pittsburg shouid soon be-
gin to fefl the good effects of easy
money. Railroads and public utilities
OF various kinds are only waiting for
low interest rates In order that
they may sell bonds before giving
large orders for electrical equipment
This N also true Of the
railroad equipment industry. How
ever, money rates should enable
the railroads TO buy. It should be re-
mcrhbered that after New England
the next section to be hit by the de-
preston OF 1920-21 was this portion of
tho country OF which am writing
today. For this very reason. however
New York. Pennsylvania and adjoin-
Ing states will be tho INST TO follow
New England In her recovery. Hence
the outlook In those states will be fair.
Salos opportunities in these states will
be better In 1922 than In 1921. They
perhaps have not turned the corner.
but they surely are turning tho cor
ner.

that the state OF New York has the
best statistics on employment OF any
state In the union. These show that

tic feeling existing between Ball and
Layton, all but despair OF unity OF
sctpn on their part; and they feel

Ball Fighting For Prestige.
The knowing ones here. who assume
TO analyze the situation. declare
that Senator Ball has entered upon a
fight for his political existence, and
that he must triumph now or yield
to the inevitable and pass from the
! scene Of action. II is said that he has
made the prospective appointment OF
Thomas Z. Peeney Internal Revenue
Collector the issue upon which he will
either endure or succumb. and that he
can not now retrace his steps; that
he Is so obligated to Peeney's friends
and his friends that he can not allow
any other but Peeney TO have the Job,
and he has made up his mind to stand
or fan on this proposition.
On the other hand, Senator du Pont.
backed by a large number OF promi-
nent Republicans In Delaware. has
said Peeney can not have the appoint
ment, but that any one OF numerous
friends OF Senator Bail may have tho
/ Job II the senior Senator will only IN,
dicate which one OF those friends h
Will be willing to indorse for tn
| place.
The fight between Senator Ball and
Senator du Pont, however. seems to
be intermingled with the strongest
kind Of friendly feeling. At least II
takes on this phase In their association
with each other, for, when in Wash
