Si BOARD VESSEL
SCENE! BIG M
Passengers Accuse Officers
of Being Drunk.
STEAMER OUT OF FUEL
Oil Said to Have Been Pumped
Froin Tanks Into Ocean,
by Mistake.
(Bv Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
NEW YORK, Nov. 5. Seldom has
a vessel brought'such Indignant pas
sengers to this port as those arriv
ing today on the steamer Southern
Cross, one of the largest of the
United States shipping board's fleet,
which is given over to the Munson
line for operation between New York
and South American ports.
Running short of fuel oil for some
unexplained reason, after leaving
Rio De Janeiro, Captain Bert U.
Heald was forced to put Into Ber
muda, where the ship was held for
five days for oil that it took 12 hours
to put on board.
And, strange as it may seem, some
of the passengers blamed the mis
hap to liquor, although the ship
ping board vessels were supposed to
be bone dry.
While no liquor was sold on board,
great quantities were brought
aboard by passengers.
Officer Drunk, Charge.
Charging that one high officer of
the ship was under the influence of
I'quor in the presence of passen
gers, Hiss Hardynia K. Norville of
Montgomery, Ala., representative in
South America of the World's
Women's Christian Temperance
union, said she was going to report
the matter to the Munson line, the
United States shipping board and
take up the matter with the organi
zation she represents at the con
vention In Philadelphia from No
vember 11 to 19.
So serious was the situation on
board the Southern Cross considered
that J. C. Sheedy, one of the board's
vice-presidents, was on the dock
when the vessel reached Hoboken,
and began an immediate investiga
tion. Although Mr. Sheedy, after
boarding the vessel at Hoboken, said
he understood the shortage of oil
was due to salt water becoming
mixed with the oil, passengers main
tained that members of the crew
told them an inexperienced assistant
engineer had pumped oil overboard
when told to pump some water out
of the ballast tanks.
Teacher Blames Drink.
Clifton A. Barker, a teacher in the
American Baptist college at Rio De
Janeiro, said:
"If there had not been so much
drinking on board we would have
been here five days earlier."
Another incident of the voyage
came to a climax on the pier at
Hoboken when Miss Norville was
confronted by Mrs. Gertrude M.
Shirk, the ship's hostess, who
charged the temperance worker
with spreading the report that she
had been intoxicated on board.
"I did not say you were intoxi
cated," snapped Miss Norville. "I
said you had been drinking alco
holic liquors. It was another woman
on board who said you were drunk.
She said you took 18 drinks at one
sitting."
"I had some drinks." answered
Mrs. Shirk, her face taking on a
crimson glow, "but I never had 18
at one time. Furthermore it was
understood when I became hostess
on this vessel that I could drink
with the passengers. Mr. Munson
told me I could."

PREMIER'S BUST . DONE
Activity of Mussolini Bothers
Sculptor, but Task Finished.
ROME, Nov. 5. By "the Associ
ated Press.) The sculptor Lorenzo
Caprino, who undertook to make, a
bust of the super active, super-energetic
Mussolini, has a hard task,
since the premier eats and sleeps at
any hour except those of ordinary
mortals. Caprino began the work
when the fasclsti leader's days were
less strenuous. More recently he
has worked on the clay model while
Mussolini took a Slurried supper at
9 or 10 o'clock at night and then re
touched it at another time while the
subject ate, talked, rushed to answer
the telephone and received visitors
on important business.
Notwithstanding all these difficul
ties the model was finally completed
and is described is showing to a
marked degree the characteristic ex
pressions of the new premier.

'S PLEA OPPOSED
MRS. HALL TTNXIKELY
SEE GRANT JURY.
TO
Woman Said to Have No Right to
Demand Opportunity to
Refute Charges.
(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Nov. 5.
The "demand" of Mrs. Frances
Stevens Hall to appear before the
Somerset county grand jury which
is to have presented to it the coming
week evidence in the Hall-Mills
murder case, will be denied, It was
reliably reported tonight.
Mrs. Hall's declaration, through
the medium of a friend, that she
wished to go before the inquisitorial
body and tell what she" may know of
the murder of her husband. Rev. Ed
ward Wheeler Hall, and Mrs. Mills,
his favorite choir singer, and that
she would waive immunity, was be
lieved to be a bold move for the
sympathy of the public.
The only way in which Mrs. Hall
could appear before the grand jury
would be in answer to a summons
issued by the prosecutor, officials
asserted. It is unlikely that such a
summons will be issued. ,
In spite of this the widow deter
mined today to file with the grand
jury foreman, Alfred Gibbs, a for
mal request to appear and deny the
truth of statements made by Mrs.
Jane Gibson, who has 'sworn to the
authorities that she twice saw Mrs.
Hall in Derussy's lane on the night
of the murder. ,
James Mills, widower of the slain
choir singer, said today he, too,
wishes to appear before the grand
jury. Mills doubts that the mystery
ever will be solved.

permission of the Angora govern

Burning of Main Postofflce
Dublin Declared Part of
General Attack.
BT PAUL WILLIAMS.
(Chicago Tribune ForeiEn News Service.
Copyright. 1922, by the Chicago Tribune.)
DUB1KN, Nov. 5. The burning of
the main postoffice in Dublin this
morning is incidental to a general
attack upon the essentia services
in Ireland.
This the irregulars consider a
vital part of their plan to break
the free state government and break
the treaty. And in trying they are
breaking their country.
Business generally is being slow
ly strangled by the guerrilla war
fare, crime, interrupted communica
tions, loss of credit, loss of confi
dence and unemployment. There is
little buying or building because
of the danger, in one case, of some
armed . persons taking what is
bought away, and in the other
arson. ,
Wealth has been leaving the
country by millions for months.
Railroads are operating about 70
per ,cent of their mileage and in
some areas bridges continue to be
blown up as rapidly as they are
repaired.
The sex pale, which has protect
ed women working with the Irregu
lars, has been lifted and those
caught serving actively in the fu
ture will spend an exalted martyr
dom in damp cells.
The activities of womanhood have
resulted in many attacks costing the
lives of a number of troops. Coleens
gloried in such services performed
with impunity, but those days are
over. All those who play must pay.
Carrying messages, providing
shelter, posting propaganda, toting
revolvers and ammunition to help
men assigned to particular jobs and
taking guns from them after an
ambush are the more common duties
of women members of the "cumann
namban."
WIFE TRADEDFOR AUTO
Teamster Gives Woman as Part
Payment on Car.
(By Chicago Tribune Leased Wire.)
SYRACUSE, N. T., Nov. 5. Ac
cording to a deed of barter made
public by a prominent official in
Oswego, F. R. Woodruff, a teamster
of Fulton, signed over his wife on
July 18, 1921, to Grover Coant for
his Ford touring car and all "con
siderations, including one tire, one
pump and all the toules in the car
at the present time. I let all bonds
drop on my wife this 18th day of
July, 1921 A. D. . . Signed, Frank
R. Woodruff, Grover Coant, Neda
Woodruff."
The spelling of the foregoing deed
is as it was written. Woodruff did
not long enjoy his Ford, for he
failed to make payments due and
it was taken away from him. The
case came to light when Fulton au
thorities discovered that Woodruff's
children were neglected and an in
vestigation brought out the 'strange
facts of the barter. Mrs. Woodruff
is said to be In Utlca, but her ad
dress is not known to the authori
ties. Coant is still in Fulton and
has said that he was ready to
trade his present car - for another
good woman.

Soldiers' and Sailors' Commission
Governor Olcott saved this Commission from being abolished in 1920. The

Soldiers' Home at Roseburg

signed ex-service men, who have actively interested ourselves in Soldier Relief,
urge his re-election.
