DUBLIN. Sept. 23. (Special Cable.)
Following the ambushing of a po
lice patrol in county Clare yesterday
when four policemen were killed and
others wounded, the towns of Mill
ton. Malbay. Lahinch and Ennistymon
went through a night of terror.
The campaign of reprisal began
simultaneously in the four towns with
the burning of houses of Sinn Feiners
or houses where suspected Sinn Fein
ers were employed. The police, known
as the "black and tans," went through
the towns with bombs, patrol and
rifles, firing premises and shooting
Indiscriminately. Three men were
killed, two in Ennistymon and one in
Lahinch. Families fled into the coun
try and a general panic prevailed.
Prohibition by the military authori
ties of an inquest Into the death of
County Counselor Lynch of Limerick,
who was killed at the Exchange hotel,
bas aroused a etorm of indignation
and the official statement that he
was shot while resisting fire popu
larly is rejected.
Notice Served on Coroner.
The municipal law agent today
erved notice on the .coroner com
manding him to hold an inquest.
Kotice that the military intend to
hold an inquiry .probably tomorrow,
subsequently was officially issued.
The body lies at the city morgue and
cannot be removed. Many rumors are
In circulation and developments are
awaited with excited popular Interest.
Republican volunteers have arrest
ed a Canadian ex-soldier who is stat
ed to have knowledge of the sacking
of Balbriggan. Important statements
have been made by him.
Public Fnneral Abandoned.
. The public funeral arranged for two
men killed at Balbrigga was aband
oned today on a warning conveyed to
friends from the Germanstown head
quarters of the "black and tans" that
If a public funeral was held destruc
tion of the town would be completed
tonight and several others shot.
The message was conveyed through
the local police. As a result compara
tively few persons attended the fu
neral and immediately it left town
roost of the remaining inhabitants
went Into the country. Scores of fam
ilies have made arrangements to sleep
In the fields and by hedges, and Im
provised tents have been fixed up.
Owing to the general panic no ar
rangements for housing can be made.
turned by way of New Tork and sub
mitted an expense account of $521.07
which included 57.50 for Pullman ac
commodations to San Francisco and
1131 for the earns accommodations
returning home.
Pullman Item Scanned.
The Pullman Items aroused much
discussion in the committee, it being
shown that this charge exceeded the
rate even for a drawing-room on the
distance covered. It was pointed out
that a drawing room calls for two
full tickets besides the charge for
the accommodations. Mr. Beall said
that Mr. Montrose "sometimes acts
aa the attorney-general's secretary,"
which caused the inference that the
attorney-general was the other "oc
cupant of the dTawing room. The
witness said the items "may include
some expense for the attorney-gen
eral."
J. Edgar Hoover, special assistant
in charge of radical activities, also
found it necessary to go west about
the same time which caused Senator
Kenyon to inquire "was there a
radical outbreak in San Francisco in
June?"
Hoover left Washington on June
SO and like the others remained until
after the convention, charging all of
the expense to the government. His
charges, however, were scaled some
what by the department of justice
who deducted 15 cents from one tip
paid to a waiter and 20 cents from
a tip paid to a porter. He charged
up J108.30 for railroad fare and his
other expenses are to be reported to
the committee later together with a
report on the names of all the em
ployes of the department of justice
who "had business" in San Francisco
t convention time and what It cost
the government to send them.
During the forenoon session it was
shown that Floyd R. T. Harrison, sec
retary of Secretary of Agriculture
Meredith, made the trip to San Fran
cisco at convention time at the ex
pense of the government. Secretary
Meredith was a delegate to the con
vention from Iowa and was working
for the nomination of McAdoo.

How federal employes attended the
democratic national convention at
San Francisco at the expense of the
government was told this afternoon
.by Don C. Fees, an auditor . of the
department of justice, who had been
subpenaed to bring before the com
xnittee a number of expense vouchers.
It was known by what Senator
Kenyon termed a notable series of
coincidents" that a large army of
Assistant and special attorneys as
-well as other employees of the de
partment of justice had found it
necessary to go to the Pacific coast
on "official business" just a few days
before the convention opened at San
xrancisco before which Attorney-Gen
ral Palmer, -head of the department,
was a candidate for the presidential
nomination. The convention opened
June -8. Here are some of the af
ternoon's disclosures as shown by
vouchers presented by Auditor Fees.
I'. S. Pays Convention Expense,
Frank K. Nebeker, assistant attor
ney-general, left Washington June 8,
went to Salt Lake and then to San
Francisco, arriving at the latter city
June 20. Submitted an expense ac
count exclusive of railroad and Pull
man transportation of $103.15. Other
expenses paid by the government are
to be submitted later. Mr. Nebeker
la shown by his expense account to
have been very liberal in the matter
of tips and got them Into his bill
against ths government. He re
malned in San Francisco 17 days,
charging all of the expense except
four days In San Francisco to Uncle
Sam. On the four last days of the
convention he used four days of his
annual leave, according to the ex
pense voucher.
R. P. Stewart, another assistant at
torney-generai, leit Washington on
June 10 and went to Seattle; stopped
over a few hours and went on to San
Francisco, where he arrived on June
32. He remained in San Francisco
until after the convention and
charged to the government for ex
penses, $425.

National suicide" was the term
employed yesterday by Thomas Man
nix in speaking of the league of na
tions at the weekly luncheon of the
Portland Press club, held in head
quarters in the Elks building. His
opponent in debate was Richard W.
Montague, active in local democratic
politics.
Mr. Mannix maintained that the
league sets up a "new form of govern
ment and that henceforth the coun
try would take orders from a super
state, represented by a group of men
in Geneva Instead of guiding its
foreign policy in Washington.
Where will its laws be inter
pre ted?" he asked. "It's all right to
be an Idealist, but we .want to know
who is going to run this league. In
article 10 we agree to put a straight'
jacket on the world. If our boys go
to war I want to see them fighting
for the red, white and blue, and not
another flag. Leagues of nations in
the past have been leagues of war.
You can't stop war until you make
now race of men. The struggle for
existence is born in them.
"Wilson would undo the work of
Washington. The league covers
everything and means nothing, but it
Is contrary to our form of govern
ment. Charity begins at home, and
we've been monkeying with Europe
lon enough."
Montague likened the league to the
Monroe doctrine and declared it would
work out In the same way. He also
defended article 10 as protecting
against external territorial aggres
sion and said mandatories' would be
given only to those nations willing to
accept them.
The people thought the league all
right until the question became a
football in party politics. The league
is no longer a project, but a fact, and
If we remain out of It we stand with
bo)shevi8t Russia, Mexico and the un
speakable Turk."
The luncheon was the first one held
in the clubrooms, which were crowd
ed to capacity. Hereafter all Thurs
day gatherings will take place in
these quarters.
NEW YORK, Sept. 23. Herbert
Hoover, who testified today before the
senate committee on reconstruction,
declared he believed the aggregate of
national savings would be stimulated
if the government "stopped profiteer
ing and paid something like an ade
quate rate of interest" to depositors.
Reports showed, he said, that prol-
its obtained by the government in
1918, chiefly from re-deposit of postal
savings bank funds in banks at 2 '4
per cent interest, were $1,135,000,
while, he added, examination of any
annual postal savings bank report
would show that depositors do not re
ceive much more than"! per cent In
terest.
"If a complete balance sheet were
made from the beginning," he said.
"the return of the government as indl
cated by the profits during 1918 on
postal savings bank deposits probably
would represent at least 100 per cent
profit per annum on any capital In
vested by the government in support
ing the scheme in its early stages, or
any capital extension that has been
necessary in the postof flee depart
ment. Such s.n operation in private
banks would be dignified by the term
'profiteering and a public demand
would require investigation by the
attorney-general. The depositors are
the poorest and least wise of the com
munity and deserve especial care.
Mr. Hoover declared that It "would
seem only justice" if the whole meth
od of payment of Interest should be
reorganized so as approximately to
distribute the profits back to the de
positors.
He said the postal savings banks
were established for tho prime pur
pose of enlarging the area of national
savings. He asserted the stimulation,
to savings was not interest return but
merely the inducement of safety.
"The real question at issue," he
said, "appears to me to be, not only
justice to depositors, but also whether
the aggregate of national savings can
be increased by offering a larger re
turn- on postal savings deposits,
whether more savings can be dulled
out of stockings, waste and luxuries
and 'wild cats.' Every dollar so saved
is a contribution to national welfare,
"This, he said. Vis only a matter of
justice and is the application of the
law at the rate of 2 per cent per an
num. not 1 per cent, as at present."

Mild excitement prevailed In the
office of City Auditor Funk yesterday
when a race developed between City
Commissioners Mann and Barbur for
first place on the ballot. Under the
charter the first candidate to file
nominating petitions is given the first
place on the ballot.
Commissioner Barbur, who for years
served as city auditor, was aware that
the first opportunity to file the peti
tions came yesterday. Hence at 7:30
o'clock in the morning Commissioner
Barbur was on hand. The auditor's
office was open and Deputy Auditor
Smith was in clrarge.
Commissioner Barbur s petition was
accepted.
In the meantime H. A. Goode, as
sistant to Commissioner Mann, had
hurried to the home of Auditor Funk
and handed the nominating petitions
to the city auditor.
City Auditor Funk accepted the pa
pers, but stated that they would not
be filed until 8 o clock, the official
time his office opens for business.
When City Auditor Funk reached
his office and learned that Commis
sioner Barbur's petition had been filed
at 7:30 o'clock, he began to reprimand
Deputy Smith and suspended him for
cne week.
News of the suspension reached the
ears of both Commissioners Mann and
Barbur and both rushed to the audi
tor's office to appeal in behalf of
Smith. It was agreed that the two
commissioners would settle the ques
tion of place on the ballot between
themselves, with the result that Smith
was immediately reinstated.
Then Barbur and Mann hurried to
the latter's office and flipped a coin.
Commissioner Mann won.
Debate Last Night Hinged oi How
Much Public Would Stand
For as Increase.
Representatives of the producers
and distributors presented to the
milk commission last night at a meet
ing In the central library their views
of the milk situation, at the request
of the commission. No definite deci
sion as to the price for the winter
months was decided last night, but
the members of the commission will
undertake to set the price at a meet
ing Tuesday afternoon.
"We will not increase the price
greatly," said W. L. Brewster, chair
man of the commission, at last night's
meeting, "because that will cut down
consumption. We must consider the
case of the consumer. We will take
the information furnished-us by the
producers and distributors and try to
make the price as fair as possible
to everyone.
M. S. Shrock. organization man
ager of the Oregon Dairymen's Co
operative league, presented the case
for the producers.
"What price do you think the pub
lic can stand?" asked Mr. Brewster.
"I am not prepared to answer that
question," replied Mr. Shrock.
But isn't that the crux of the
whole matter?" queried the chairman.
Mr. Shrock said that he was not
ready to state.
C. M. Gregory, speaking for the dis
tributors, claimed that conditions in
Portland were not similar to those
in towns In Washington and Califor
nia, for here the dairy country Is at
the "very door of the city."
Portland grocers declined to attend
the meeting on the ground that the
commission, by its previous price-fixing,
had not shown a spirit of fair
ness to the retailer.

far superior to anything previously
grown in the northwest.
In appearance the new type of fruit
would seem to be a cross between
the Oregon "Italian" prune, and the
Oregon "French" prune. It la larger
than either, however, and more

Withdrawal Results, It Is Said,
Over Row About Division of
$17,000 Fund.
Failure of the grade teachers to
agree with delegates, from the prin
cipals' association as to what salary
Increases Portland principals would
have should It be possible to divide
the $17,000 fund secured annually
from tuitions has brought withdrawal
of the principals from the Federated
Teachers' council. It became known
yeterday that the principals had una-
mously voted to take this action
when it was proposed at their meeting
Wednesday.
The session was secret and par
ticipants declined to comment upon
it otner than to say that there was
no division of opinion.
Nothing could have been more
harmonious." declared H. M. Sher
wood, president of the association.
We were dissatisfied with the make
up of the council and. with other
things. Beyond this he declined to
comment.
Mrs. Jennie Richardson, president
of the grade teachers association,
explained the situation. "The salary
question was put up by the board.
she explained, "then a vote was taken
and it didn't go as the principals
wanted it to. They asked for a maxi
mum increase of $460 more than the
grade teachers desired. We felt we
had all worked in the campaign for
the same thing and could not be
satisfied with SlOO as against thel
$660. "
The council was formed last January
and has representation according to
the number of members in the asso
ciatlon. ThlB gives the grade teach
ers eight representatives, the high
school four, the principals two and
the special teachers two. It requires
