A decree was issued today, signed by all the ministers of tho Por tuguese cabinet, dissolving parliament ond fixing January s as tho date for holding a general election. HANGINGS DESCRIBED (Continued from Pago One) scores of telegrams to and from wit nesses respecting their attendance. Many of them, former service men telegraphed thai they were without funds, and In these cases arrange ments were made to provide the transportation. The names of witnesses summoned fn- today and tomorrow w-ere called, and there was a shout of "hero-," from all parts of the room. The statement of William Cowles. of Al Inncapnlls. that the picture nl (liovroH purporting to he of u goilows was in reality that of a crane, was presented. Senator Watson asked for the records in thu trial of tho eleven Americans executed In accordance with military law and was told that l hey were ready for presentation to l ho committee. WASIIINOTO.W Dec. 20. 1 larriKon, tho Wilmington witness told of anoth er lynching alter the armistice which ho declared was directed by "Hard Boiled" Smith. 'This wrist of mine," said Harrison lifting his loft arm, "wus broken while trying to save myself from 'Hard llollod' Smith and a couple of his sor- Keonts. The witness said ho saw men taken to the firing line without gas maski or guns, as a form of punishment. Pressed a.s to the cause of tho lynch ing Harrison said tho victims hail been ordered by Smith to sweep tho stock yard with a toothbrush "and they had a lltllit party when ho refused." "Wore you rourtmartialod?" Sou a(or Overman, democrat, North Caro lina, asked. "Yes. The colonel cursed mo and I cursed him back and he had mo sent (o Iho firing line after (rial Ills name.

Questioned by Senator Watson, dem ocrat, Georgia, w hose charges that American soldiers were illegally exe cuted in l-'rauco led to the inquiry. Taylor, the Philadelphia witness, said the evidence in tho court martial of tho Detroit sergeant was given lii Krench, hul an interpreter was in at tendance. The crime was rape. "Was tho man allowed counsel'.'" Senator llrandi'goe asked. "One American oll'icer was there. He asked sune questions." After the hanging Taylor said he saw the man's heart and brain wore removed "to see if he was era.y." "Who diil thai'.'" "A major in the American medical corps." "Know his name?" "No." "Was the Detroit sergeant allow ed to tell his side of it to' the French court'.'" Seiuitor Watson asked. "No sir. lie wasn't asked to testify, but he did say he wasn't responsible for the death of the girl concerned in tile rape charge." DIRECT TAX IS DEAD (Continued from pago ono.) 1 in v is ho mot lunl ot f in:im'i:tt sup port for tho fair. I piodh-t that they will think liftVrMit".y whon wo inljouiii.

The psychology of the two situations here n-.akea the matter not :t question of an exposi tion but a question of taxes. Most of the counties of tin- state are feeling like our p.-ople in .lackson county, that wo have Just about reached the limit of endurance in lax matters and it is up to tile legislature to serve definite and positive notice that a 'tax holiday' is tho next thing in order. "Various compromise plans are being submitted such as financing the fair by 1. Income tax. 2. nesoriing to the pole tax to raise he funds needed. II. Dipping into the funds raised by gasoline tax. 4. Holding a much less preten tious fair to be fnir.nced by private subscriptions alone. There are, of course, some advo cates of tho direct tax plan and a few who are opposed to the fair alto gether, but mark my prediction, either the Portland boys will find some wa, some simple, expedient w-ay, to finance this scheme other lhar. by putting tho burden on the taxpayers id' tho state, or tho legisla ture will turn it down cold.

WAR CLOUDS IN IRELAND (Continued from page one.) with itrien o'Higsiins in the chair, ro- ! placing l'rofe.-.sor John .MacMll. Mr. DeYalcra, addressing the Dail at Hie outset, claimed there could bo no question of ratification of tho treaty by the Dail, which, he de clared, could not ratify the pad in tho sense of making it a legal instru ment. All the Dail could do was to approve or disapprove, he assorted. The republican president said he would later move "that inasmuch as tile articles of agreement for thu treaty between Great Hritain and Ire land signed in London, do not recon cile Irish national aspirations and the association of Ireland with the community of nations known as tho Iiillish commonwealth and cannot establish lasting peace between the peoples ot the two islands, tho Dull Kireann makes to the liritish the fol lowing proposal." .Mr. DeValera did not read the pro positi, nor was it made public, but copies, it was said, would be among members when the motion was made. Woman Opposes Pact. Mis. Kate t I'f 'allaghan. the first woman member to speak, opposed ! the treaty. "The women of the Dail will vote for principles, not expedients," she declared. John U.
