Inside Influences Are at Work. A member of the cabinet * today said: “Inside influences are at work." He would go no further No other per- son close to the President would say any- thing. As the situation is todayy ‘ere is a posal- ble avenue of relief.

It is perfectly underatood by the dent a Y ae, “oh a egy Ppp do nothing more. east, at Is the inlo President and hia advisers. vee Therefore, it is necessary to turn to Mitchell. This plan has been given wide circulation in the hope that Mitchell would act on it on his own initiative. It has been said, unofficially, but itn official quar- ters, that {f Mitchell should decide to call a convention and try to induce the men to gS to work, fie could do so with the as- surance that any remedy that could be ex- tended by Congress or the Pennsylvania ‘legislature to get the miners the conces- sions they are now demanding, will be ex- tended when those bodies meet. The following clear explanation of the policy of coercion in Ireland, resuiting in the imprisonment of members of Parlia- ment, is made by a St. uls resident, vb felt the rigors. of English domi- The imprisonment of the parliamentary represeritatives of Ireland by the Balfour ministry is in pursuance of a policy of co- ercion which the present English govern- ment has persistently adopted during the last four years. It is difficult for citizens of this coun- try to understand the coercion regime now obtaining in Ireland. Under an obsolete law, 700 years ago, when Engli sovereignty in Ireland was more than doubtful, rep- ee mca of the people are being tried ocay. The charges are made by policemen fn the pay of the government, and the cases are hunter for five years, and allow the game to multipiv and again Inhabit the country in great numbers. “SHOTGUNS AT THE POLLS.” And Anarchy From the Pulpit Predict- ed by Father Coffey. Following a sermon denunclatory of the political records as Edward Butler, James H. Cronin and Robert Carrol], Father James T. Coffey, rector of St. John's Church, declared Sunday that the voters of St. Louis would soon find it necessary to resort to shotguns at the polls in order to protect their rights. ‘The time is coming,’’ said Father Coffey, “when anarchy will be preached from the pulpit. The people must take matters in their own hapds.

At the conclusion of the interview Mr. Folk said that valuable information had been obtained, and that the subject of the lighting bill would soon be presented to the new grandjurv. He expects definite re- sults from the renewed investigation, he said. The last grandjury was anxious to have Campbell explain the purpose of the pay- ment to Butler of a sum exactly equaling that which, according to John K. Murrell, we Ce s } : son, E. E. Fyke and T.

Her pulse and respiration “were normal, the eye pupils responded readily ‘to the movement of a light when the lids are held open, showing that she d taken no drugs. Miss Meek is not able to tell anything about herself. She mumbles in a rambling way. so that no one understands her. Dr. J. G. Mumselle, who has been attend- ing her, declares it his belief that she has been suffering with hysterics.. He thinks the girl was semiconscious all of the time, though not fully enough awake to realize pe was going on around her. She had a uniilar attack several years ago.

ATTORNEY FOLK AS A PROPHET He Predicts Accurately the Number of Years Boodlers Will Be Given to Serve. Circuit Attorney Folk has established a reputation as a prophet, as well as a suc- cessful prosecutor, with those who have followed hie predictions of the outcome of the four boodle cases which he has pros- ecuted. In every case he has accurately forecast the outcome. Friday night, nearly 2% hours before the ciose of the Snyder case, Mr. Folk pre- dicted to acquaintances that Snyder would receive a five.years' sentence. The opinion was expressed in his hearing that the jury. if ener, found Snyder amena- bie to the law at all, would give him the unishment—seven years. not,”’ was Mr. Folk's immediate reply. “The jury will allow two years for the fact that Uthoff retugned the $50,000 to Lehmann and Faulk- made, In conversation similar ac- er. n the Meysenburg, fr.
