LamentabIe Conditions.


"The conditions in southern Ireland

ROME, May 81 (Associated Press).-
Parliamentary circles are greatly
alarmed over the situation at Bologna,
where, according to reliable informa-

cred from the surrounding provinces.
Some of these extreme Nationalists
are carrying bombs. Several Socialist
houses have been set on fire. The
Government has sent officials to Bo-
logna hoping to pacify the populace.
The ancient city has become a forti-
fled camp and its picturesque arcades
transformed into dormitories for the
Fascist. Its medieval towers are used
as lookouts and its Roman gateways
patrolled by armed men. The Fascist
are organized in military fashion.
Their entire day is mapped out by
two hours.
Socialist and Communist Mayors have
been forced to resign and there have
been sporadic Fascist excesses in other
districts, notably Turin. Here the Fas-

u. S. WEIGHS PART
IN RUSSIAN INQUIRY
Discusses Probable Represen.
fation on Commission.

WASHINGTON, May 31.-Although moth
ing has occurred to change the status
OF the American Governments relation
to the Hague conference, it was learned
to-day that the project for American
representation on a commission to in
vestigate Russian problems had not been
dropped.
There were indications that Informal
discussions on the subject still were in
progress. In the absence OF any definite
step. however. State Department Off
cials declined to discuss the situation or
predict what might develop from 1t.
AS understood here, the plan now
under consideration by the Powers is
for appointment OF two Russian COM
missions, the first simply to investigate
Russian affairs. and the second to treat
with the Russian authorities with n
view TO restoring sound economic and
political conditions. The American
Government Is understood to have taken
ing part in the investigating phase. but
that II did not desire to be represented
on the commission which would deal
with the Soviet Government.
This attitude, IL Is explained. is a
further application of the policy adopted
by the United States toward the con-
ference at Genoa. officials believe an
exchange between representatives OF the
Powers and the Soviet regime, even
though II was intended to treat with
economic subjects alone. inevitably
would lead to a political debate in which
the United States does not care to par
ticipate.
IL Is presumed that the second or
negotiating commission would In effect
be a part of The Hague conference. in
which the United States already has de-
clined TO take part. Whether the in
vestigating commission is actually to be
created. with an American member, has
not yet been definitely decided. Ameri-
can officials saying the decision rests
with the European Powers who FIRST
suggested such a plan.

LIABILITIES
DOINGS AT ANNAPOLIS
From n Special Correspondent

With Governor Richie III, the second
week Of the legislative session has OPP
ened with little prospect OF more than
announcement of committee appoint
ments as the accomplishment OF the
first ten days.
The presiding officers OF the two
houses, senator William s. Norris and
Speaker John l.. G. Lee, although ar
dent supporters OF the governor and
his program, are neither closely enough
in touch with the details Of the legisla-
ton necessary to carry the program
into effect nor strongly enough estah-
lished to rally the support OF uncertain
elements.
Running true to form the session,
like hundreds of others, met in due and
appointed time, welcomed the new lady
legislator, Miss Mary Il. w. Risteau,
Of Hartford County, elected presiding
officers, drank at the fount OF eEecu-
tive wisdom and then adjourned Cor
week.
OLD and familiar elements Of dis
cord as certain TO produce fermenta-
ton in the General Assembly as the
Yeast in the brew, greeted the sOlons in
the dining room Of Carvel Hall and at
the door of the caucus room even be-
fore they had been sworn in. Race
track gambling, prohibition enforce
ment, taxation, increased representa-
ton for Baltimore City, patronage and
the female of the species, all lifted
their heads on the opening day and
gave promise Of a political Dempsey
Carpenter.
Governor Richie followed the pre-
cedent set two years ago when he and
Governor Harrington appeared IN per
son before the Assembly and deliver
ed their respective outgoing and in
coming messages. Much Of the gov
ernors speech was concerned with
his organization plan which he present
ed as a panacea TO State grooming
under the burden Of heavy taxation.
The fate of the reorganization scheme
is expected to depend not only upon
its merits as businesslike readJust-
ment Of the affairs Of the State, and
elimination Of the confusion which has
resulted from the gradual addition md
multiplication of bureaus AMI commits
sions, but upon the power Of the COVER

Portable berths have been eliminated

Much interest was aroused in the
cloak rooms and Hobbies through the
situation created by the selection Of
the Hon. Stephen B. Gambrill, Of How
ard County, spokesman last session

for the anti-race track forces, as floor
leader, due, it is said, to the pique of
Clarence Roberts, defeated candidate
for the speakership. The question of
how far Mr.. Gambrill, u strong crra-
nization Democrat will carry his in
teiest in reform and how active will
be the support which he will give to
Delegate William Punel Hall IN the
latter'S war on the tracks, proved an
absorbing topic of discussion.
Party lines are expected to disappear
almost entirely in the fight for inc"eas-
81 representation for Baltimore city.
An almost solidly Democratic GeleSa-
tion from the city contains a number
of members who campaigncd on per-
sonal platforms plcdgng more than
the two additional districts endorsed
by the State Convention. Otrsetting
these are county men of both parties
bitterly opposed to any additional ie-
presentation whatever for the city.
Finally, the woman question appears
for the first time as an element in the
General Assembly. Past Legislatures
have been able to shut the door when
the feminine insistence became embar-
raising. This year, however, finds wo-

PROF. A. +. GALBREATH HAS
TRAGIC END

Professor Alexander Finney Gal
breath died at his home in Darlington
on Thursday morning at 3 o'clock af-
ter an illness of two days. On Tues
day afternoon, while watching some
men at work Mr.. Galbreath fell from
his porch so that a nail inflicted an
ugly wound in his head. The workmen
hurried to his aid and at first his con-
ditiOn was not considered serious. An
hour later, however, he lapsed into un-
consciousness and never rallied.
Born on Broad Creek above Dublin,
Mr.. Galbreath attended st. Johns Col
lege. In 1878 he was elected principal
of Darlington school, succeeding Har-
fords famous teacher John M.Cooley,
who came to Darlington after the Civ
il War. Without interruption Prof.
Galbreath was principal Of Darlington
school until forced to resign year ago
because of i'll health. During this long
period practically all the young people
of the community came under his guld-
ing hand and leanedtorespect hi squiet
manner. As an active factor in COM
munity affairs he made still wider &C
ouaintances so that his death will be
a shock TO large circle of friends.
In 1881 Mr.. Galbreath married Miss
Sara Wilson, of Darlington, by whom
he is survived. One son, Wilson, OF
Warren, Ohio, also survives.
Funeral services will be held from
his late residence Saturday afternoon
at 2 o'clock.

FAIR STOCKHOLDERS GRATIFI.
ED AT SHOWING
Association Now On Solid Permane
Basis

4 goodly number of stockholders Of
the Hartford Fair Association were in
attendance at the annual meeting held
in the courtroom on Monday afternoon
and all expressed their qualification
at the showing made by the directors
during the past year. While few
minor changes came up for discussion
those assembled felt that the directors
general policy heretofore is the correct
one.
The matter of securing more ground
was discussed and left to the discretion
Of the directors, the general feeling
being that every effort should be made
to induce outside land holders not TO
cut into fair profits by permitting
parking. All hands agreed that they
wanted no dividend ON their stock, pre-
ferring that any balance go towards
further improvement Of the grounds.
This has been the policy Of the dircc-
tors who bought at $3.50, wiped off
their mortgage the first year and have
spent around Sl1 900 in improvements.
A surplus of about $4,000 was shown
for the past three years.
A lively discussion arose as to the
wisdom Or unwisdom of accepting any
money which might come from the
Iour mile tracks. Last year the direc-
tors received $500 through the Mary
land State Fair Association, without
any strings, which originated from the
tracks. II is now rumored that a new
racing bill will provide for $4,000 a
day tax on the big tracks and a $780,
900 purse to be distributed among local
fairs to boost agricultural interests
While practically no one present had
any liking for the big tracks and want
to see them cleared out, nearly all
felt that II the tracks are to remain
some Of their money might as well go
for u good pupose as TO line already
well filed pockets. BY this 1t Is not
meant that any effort should be made
to help the race track cause, or ac-
cept the money II It carries with It any
such condition The matter was left
in the hands Of the directors with pow
err to act.
Messra. John A. Robinson and J. W..
Cronin were appointed q committee
