Jury trial list.

at. the time the loan was negotiated.
Levy charged that pursuant to an
agreement when the money was made
available. a boat was hired and sent
to Cuba. where it was loaded with
liquor which was brought back and
landed at Greenwich. It was further
charged that the division of the pro-
ceeds of the bootleg cargo was not
made in ac ordancs with the agree-
ment allege to hav been entered
into between Levy d the bankers
when the money was raised.

The filing of this answer came in
the midst of State’s Attorney Homer
8 Cummings investigation of the now
celebrated Derigibus rum running
case. His firm was entered in the
Superior Court as counsel for the bank
against which Levy made the serious
charges. Mr. Cummings' firm with-
drew a few days later and other
counsel was substituted. Pleadings
continued .and then Mr. Sherwood
withdrew as Levy's counsel.

The judgment was entered when
Levy defaulted in making an answer
to pleadings of Judge John F. Keat-
ing. of Stamford. The record bears
the unusual notation "Judgment for
the plaintiff entered in open court."
This is accounted for by the nature
of the charges of Levy and the fact
that few persons were present in the
courtroom when the motion came up
for action.

"We advocate a great tribunal for

“and it is a source of congratulation
to see the president of the l'nited

mutton or 1916, BlSjlilP SAYS

 

DUBLIN. July e.—The Terrence
HacSwiney. late lord mayor of Cork
and Sean MacCurtain. who succeeded
him as mayor. did not approve of the
Easter week 1915 Irish rebellion. is
the statement of Bishop Daniel Co—
halan. Catholic bishop of Cork.

"I happen to know well how the
proclamation of Easter week. 1918.
was regarded in Cork." he says. "At
the time I was in close touch with
the heads of the Volunteers They
are dead: but let it not be said I am
misrepresenting the dead: that I am
making statements on written public
record during their lifetime.

"The proclamation of If“ was not
approved or accepted by the Volun-
teers of Cork. of whom MacSwiney
and MscCurtain were leaders. The
rising was regarded as a grave
beach of eclipse in the ranks of
the Volunteers. Subsequent elections
could not have created a republic in
Ireland.

"Our position at Easter, 1918. was
that we were part of the United
Kingdom. Ireland was not subject
to England or to Scotland or to
Wales. but all were united—united
under: one sovereign ruler. It does
not matter how Ireland came to be
united with England. whether by pa-
pal grant. as is alleged or by con-
quest. In either case lreland would
hav. become subject Judicially to the
sovereign of England only when the
people of Ireland accepted that sov-
ereign.

"Kingdoms have been destroyed by
force. Provinces and even nations
have been subjected by force to a
new sovereign. Force can give what
is called de facto or actual suprem-
scy: but in these cases Judicial sov-
ctcign authOrity was created only
when the people accepted the new
sovereignty.

"The people of Ireland recognized
the common sovereignty of the United
Kingdom down to 1916 in the same
way as the people of other nations
recognised their sovereignty. They
sent representatives to parliament.
their country and city boards acted
in subordination to government do-
partments. They went into public
services. Few there were who would
not have accept a government po-
sition. In reco izing the question
of peace we must remember what the
Irish position was down to 1916. The
chief alleged difficulty in the way of
national peace was that Ireland. by
the proclamation of 1916 and by the
elections of 1918 and 1920. some
maintained that Ireland was created
a republic. That is not so.

"Take the case of Scotland. like
Ireland. was once a sovereign inde-
pendent state. it came to be part of
a greater organic whole. How might
it recover its independence? In one

a part: by the, ,da’truotion and disc
memberment of the United Kingdom,
as of the late Austrian empire: .or by
edectivoly severing itself by force of
arms from the United Kingdom.

"Elections and resolutions will
never restore the sovereignty of Scot-
land. And so it is with Ireland. Let
me point out the great differences in
_the attitude of the church unjust laws
and tyrannical rulers. The apostles
sud heir successors in the church and
all the holy martyrs refused at the pe-
ril of the lives to submit to unlawful
laws. but they commanded obedience
in all things lawful.

"In Ireland an equivocal peace
would be unsatisfactory: the. is, a
peace understood by one party one
sense and by another party in another
sense. The peace of the “pact'
reached last year between Gen.
Michael Collins and DeValere. was as.
equivocal peace between some who
accepted the treaty and others who
were Republicans. Nevertheless the
‘psct' served a good purpose. It
made an election possible. and. within
the narrow limits of free choice that
was permitted them. the peopia clear-
ly manifested their'approvel of the
treaty.

"The ‘pect' declared thtat every
and.any interest was free to go up
and contest the election equallyowith
the National Sinn Feiu panel. and
consequently electors were free to
vote for such candidates. And ye.
Gen. Michael Collins was accused of
having broken the ‘pact.’ because he
told the electors they were free to
vote for whomever they considered
the best candidate."

One of the most cmious motor

convection currents set up inside the

metal surfaces of the motor are and
the minute differences

Says Intrepid Ex plorer,
Back from Honduras.

CHICAGO. July 8.—-Thousands of
Chicagoans were breathing mots
easily today. A big problem was
solved for them by Karl P. Schmidt
and Leon Walters. of the Field Mu-
scum of Naiural History Zoological
staff. who have returned from Brim
Honduras with many rare reptile
specimens. including a green-faced
climbing. "swimming. waking and fly-
ing lizard. '

For years and years excited little
groups of persons have been wont to
gather on Chicago street corners and
heatedly discuss the question. "What

 

 

would you do if you ever ran into a '

vicious crocodile?"

Just when they were about despair-
ing of ever deciding. along come
Schmidt and Whiters and say. depre-
catingly: "Why. that's a cinch."

 
 

W in; to Schmidt. has a, pecu

 

The meeting crocodile. accord-
iarity in
that he dislikes to have persons pot-
ing fingers into his eyes. It's a rather
narrowuninded attitude. of course.
but then crocodiles are that way.

80. Schmidt explslined. anyone who
tangles personalities with a 'gator in
midstream has only to poke his
thumb in one of the animal's eye‘s!
the index finger in the other.

The method. the explorer explained.
is to be used only in an emergency.
Harpoons are much better. But
Schmidt happened upon~a crocodile
when no harpoon was handy and he
used his fingers ao effectively that he
was saved from mastication.— to say
nothing of assimilation. pendfng§ar-
rival of more formidable weapons. ,

They captuer a number of croco-
diles with harpoons, besides a hun-
dred specimens of the amphibious
flying lizard. which are to be placed
in the museum.
