BERLIN. Jnn 27. (By the Asso
ciated frees.) The German Rovern
ment troops ordered to Hamburg: to
suppress disorders there reached the
suburbs of the city this morning. The
troops ordered the immediate cessation
of hostilities, the release of all pris
oners held by the communists In the
city hall, and the delivery of weapons.
All criminals released durlns the tur
bulent events were ordered returned
to jail.
The casualties in the rioting. are esti
mated to have been 20 killed and 150
to 200 wounded.
On the surface the situation is
quieter today.
The frreatest anxiety Is felt here for
the food ships. The communists. It ia
reported, announced they would seise
and destroy the ships if the food situa
tion in Hamburr does not improve st
once.
Civil War Feared.
The only measure the communist
leaders in Hamburg apparently have
been able to agree on is opposition to
the entry of government troops. It is
felt here there is a possibility that
civil war may occur in Hamburg If the
government troops should attack toe
city.
Government authorities express
themselven as certain th.it the Ham
burg dtsorden were inspired. They
were said to be the beginning of gen
erally chaotic conditions planned by
the Snartacans and expected by them
to extend throughout the country. The
authorities here said they expected that
the naxtacan element would attempt
an uprising here tomorrow.
The independent socialist and com
munist members of the executive coun
cil of the greater Berlin soviet were
arrested Thurs-iay night by order of
Minister of Defense Noske. They are
charged with havinir bn in collusion
with thA leaders of the uprising In
Hamburg.
Radical Meaaace latrrcepled.
The arrest. followed the interception
f a telephone message late Wednes
day nlht between Hamburg and Ber
lln, in which the insurrectionists at
Hamburg informed the Berlin radicals
the time for another revolution was at
hand. The local leaders are said to
have advised the Hamburg leaders to
arm their partisans for th purpose of
opposing the government troops being
mobilised against Hamburg.
The independent socialists and com
munists in the soviet are facing
charges based on treason. Among
those said to be implicated are Rich
ard Mueller, the chairman of the com
mittee, and Herr Daumis. Mueller is
known by the sobriquet of 'oVer my
dead body."

amendment. This can only te done
through processes of negotiations and
it is held that it would be a hopeless
process of delay in restoring peace. It
is also held by the president that the
effect of such amendments would be to
keep the United States out of the treaty
and out of the league.
The question has arisen whether res
ervations amount to amendment, and
presidential quarters are understood to
hold that reservations such as the pro
posed Root reservation to article 10 of
the covenant are equivalent to amend
merit.
Fall Resolutioa Oppoaed.
Feeling is said to be particularly
strong in presidential quarters against
the resolution of Senator Fall of New
Mexico to declare a- state of peace with
Germany, which is characterized in
these responsible quarters as having
the effect of allying the United Statea
with Germany and placing the country
in a position of contempt that no nft
tion ever suffered. It is the president's
belief, according to reliable sources,
that not more than a handful of people
In America will approve such a res
olution.
The length of the peace conference
is regarded, it is said, as beneficial on
the whole, as the long discussion
brought about a fuller understanding
among the nations. There is special

American experts usually prevailed,

LONDON, June 27. Establishment
of self-government in Ireland within
the British empire is proposed in
manifesto issued today by the "Irish
Dominion league," and signed by Sir
Horace Plunkett and other Irishmen.
The proposal, it la asserted, is a great
advance over any previous proposed
solution for the Irish question- except
that the Erltish connection is main
tained. Under this plan Ireland would
have virtually the same amount of
home rule as if she were an independ
ent republic.
The manifesto points out the disadc
vantages to which Irish products would
be exposed if Ireland was a republic
severed from the British empire. Men
tion Is made of possible hostile tariffs
and it Is said that such a position might
lose for Ireland her share in any im
perial preference which might be es
tablished.
Irishmen are urged in the manifesto
to write and let the British parliament
and people know what they desire.
The manifesto then outlines what the
political status of Ireland would be
under the new scheme.

election have polled 36.263 affirmative
votes, with 35.628 negative votes cast

Every' county with the possible ex
ception of one, in which the opposition
to the Non-Partisan league expects a
majority, had been reported.
On the basis of these returns, which
represent about 65 per cent of the total
vote cast, it was regarded as likely that
the Non-Partisan league majority on
all of the seven referred laws would
range around 10,000. Non-Partisan

assurances of a 15,000 margin.

JACKSON. Minn., June 27. Men and
women of national prominence are to
be called by the defense at the con
spiracy" trial or A. CT. Townley and
Joseph Gilbert in district court here,
to irive their views regarding the
patriotic or unpatriotic quality of one
or more addresses which Townley,
president of the national Non-Partisan
league, has delivered since the United
(Kates declared war on Germany.
Townley Is at Trla.
The trial of the two en who are
charged with having couspired to ad
vocate sedition, got well under way
today, with Townley present for the
first time. The state called a num
ber of witnesses, including shorthand
reporters, who testified regarding va
rious speeches which Townley and
Gilbert have made since the summer
of 1917.
One of the Townley addresses was
that delivered in St. Paul at a Non
partisan league convention September
18. 19 and 20. In this address Townley
attacked wealth and food profiteers,
referred to them as autocrats, and de
clared that wealth should be con
scripted to the limit. It was at this
meeting that United States Senator
Robert M. La Follette delivered his ad
dress on the war which later became
the subject for senatorial comment.
The prosecution today made an unsuc
cessful attempt to have the La Follette
speech read to the jury.
Attorneys for the defense today in
dicated that so far as Townley's St.
Paul speech was concerned the issue
was a clean-cut one as to whether his
.ittack on wealth' and the alleged fail
ure of wealth to carry Its share of the
war burden .was disloyal.
St. Paul Speech Issue.
Attorneys for the defense said the
speech was listened to by Senator W.
E. Borah, George Creel, formerly chair
man o the committee on public infor
mation: Representative Jeannette Ran
kin of Montana, and other well-known
persons who spoke at the St. Paul con
vention of the Non-Partisan league.
The attorneys said "it was probable
that all of these persons would be
asked to testify regarding their views
as to the loyalty of this particular ad
dress." Andrew Finstuen, editor of the Lead
er at Kenyon, Minn., testified regard
ing a Non-Partisan league meeting at
Kenyon, August 18, 1917, when
speeches were made by Joseph Gilbert,
L. W. Martin and N. S. Randall, all
Non-Partisan league organizers.
"I was loyal. I did not know It was
to be a disloyal meeting," testified Fin
stuen. "My opinion was that the meet
ing was rank disloyalty. I lft the
platform and concluded I would not
have anything to-do with the meeting."
- Red Flag Advocated.
James E. Gillespie, a banker from
Stillwater, declared that Townley in a
nolitical soeech at Stillwater on JeD
mnrv 19 of this year, ilefended the red
flag and declared that it was the eirT
hlem of the oppressed.
"I do not remember a great deal of
Townlev's speech." testified Mr. Gilles-
pie. "For some time 1 enjoyed it. Then
he took a different turn. He said there
was a bill in Minnesota to prohibit the
use of the red flag and he said he knew
only one animal that took exception to
the flag and that animal was enciosoa
in a fence. He said that the -Russian
administration was being carried on
successfully and that that was their
flag.
Russian Interrupts Speech.
"At this point a Russian Jew, Isa
dore Loft, a respected resident of Still
water, interrupted. Lott said he took
exception to the red flag statement and
declared that the American nag was
good enough for him.
"Townley replied: 'Gentlemen, look at
this man here. Is he a Russian Jew?"
"The mayor interrupted and said:
'Yes, he is, but he as an American citi
zen. He has two hoys in the war.
"Lott than asked Townley: 'How
many boys have you in the war?'
"Townley got off the platform and
that ended the meeting."
