IRELAND FEARS
CIVIL WARFARE
Tbe Members of Volunteers To The Na
tionalists' (frganization Is
Increasing Rapidly.
HOME RULE VOLUNTEERS
Are Poorly Equipped But They Are
Looking to Irishmen in America
for Aid.
London, England. With every week
of suspense in the settlement of the
future government of Ireland the men
ace of the military preparations by
the Ulster and the home rule vol
unteers increases. The present ten
dency among the volunteers of the
South is to accept leadership by the
Nationalist party which John Red
mond offered them. Thus led, there
would be a clear division of home
rulers and anti-home rule men into
hostile armed camps. The very dan
gers of a bitter civil war which such
a prospect presents, furnishes the
best safeguard for peace.
Increased In Numbers.
Dublin, Ireland. Estimates of the
number of the Irish Nationalist volun
teers vary between 80,000, which is
the Dublin Castle figure compiled by
the police, and a quarter of a million,
which is the estimate given in plat
form speeches. Careful inquiry shows
that there are 50,000 in Leinster,
which takes the lead, about 45,000 in
Ulster (increasing rapidly), 35,000 in
Munster and 25,000 in Connaught.
The great question which confronts
the Nationalist volunteers is how far
their American sympathizers are like
ly to come forward with funds for
their arms and equipment.
THREE KILLED BY BOMB
Score of People Also Injured in New
York Apartment.
New York. Three men and a wom
an were killed when a dynamite bomb,
said to be the most powerful ever
used in this city, exploded in an apart
ment tenanted by Industrial Workers
of the World. The upper part of the
six story tenement house, in which the
bomb was being made, was wrecked.
A score of persons were seriously in
jured and much property damage was
done in a wide radius from the scene
of the explosion.
Fights U. S. Beef Trust.
London. The corporation of the city
of London is holding a private inqui
ry into the alleged control of the
English meat supply by the big Amer
ican beef companies. It was proposed
at a recent meeting of the corpora
tion that the development of these
companies be clipped by placing a
limit upon the number of stalls they
may hold in the Smithfleld market, but
upon adverse report by a special com
mittee, it was decided not to interfere.
Fight on Waterway Bill.
Washington. Although congress is
really interested in only two subjects,
passage of anti-trust legislation by the
senate and adjournment, a handful of
Republican senators expect to inject a
little life into the matter, of course
proceedings of that boily before the
sessions end, and promise to make a
particularly hard fight to prevent the
passage of the river and harbor ap
propriation bill.
Presidential Election in Mexico.
Mexico City. Elections for presi
dent, vice president, deputies and sen
ators were held in parts of the repub
lic controlled by Huerta. In Mexico
City there was almost no voting and
indifference was manifested every
where. General lluerta appeared fa
vored for the presidency, and General
Blanquet, the war minister, for the vice
presidency.
Reported Husrta Will Resign.
Washington. Unofficial advices
nave readied Washington that I'edro
Lasccursan, formerly secretary of
state in Madero's cabinet, would be
chosen to succeed General Huerta as
president of Mexico, and that lluer
ta, resuming his former post as chief
of staff of the army, would be dis
patched to a foreign post, probably
France.
Zapata-Huerta Alliance Reported.
Vera Cruz. It is rumored here that
an alliance between Provisional Pres
ident Huerta and Emiliano Zapata, the
revolutionary leader, will soon be
formed. Most Mexicans regard such
a combination as inconceivable because
of the long enmity Zapata has borne
Huerta, who, under Madero, gave him
the hardest fight he ever had. But
the report brought here appears to
leave little doubt that Huerta has en
tered Into negotiations with the More
los chieftain.
Georgia Diplomat Entertains.
Lucerne, Switzerland. Pleasant A.
StovaU. American minister to Switzer
land, and his wife gave a dinner, a
reception and a ball to celebrate the
Fourth. Many prominent Swiss offi
cials were present.
