The Premier was able to rest well
during the night. Yesterday he saw
no fewer than forty persons, which the
doctors considered excessle for a man

The official statement Issued by the
subcommittee of the commission on the
International regime of ports, wnterways
and railways, after Its meeting yester
day, follows:
At the opening of the session, the
delegate from the United States ex
pressed the profound Indignation felt
by his country on receiving the news
of the dastardlv attempt made against
.the president of the Peace Conference,
M. Clemenceau. and expressed the
hope that he would recover very short
ly, xne'aeiegaies ot an me omer pow
ler ilolned In their approval of the
((enuments expressed by the American
delegate, si. weias, irencn aeiegnie,
who was presiding, warmly thanked
the delegates.
The police continue work on the case
ot Emlle Cottln, the assassin of Premier i
Clemenceau, but so far have discovered
nothing to throw new light on his actlvl-
lies, iney are enueaoring 10 irace a '
young man who called to see him at his I
lodging house Tuesday night and who
was there once or twice before during
the last few weeks. His visits at'
tracted the attention of the landlord,
u Cottln never before had any visitors.
Dragnet for llolshevlkl
Tha landlord has been able to give a I
description of him, which Is thought to
correspona with thatof a friend of
Cottln's, known ps "Michael," who Is
alleged to have anarchistic leanings.- So
far the police have not discovered the
man's whereabouts, nor have they found
where Cottln obtained the French pistol
he used when he fired upon the Premier.
The Matin says the Bearch of homes
Ot anarchists and subsequent arrests
have no connection with the Cottln case.
It asserts these measures Had been de
cided upon for some time, the chargo
gainst those under arrest being the
dissemination of Bolshevik propaganda.

concluded that skirts were quite as

able to appear once more In her usual
garments.
' During the early part of her dress
reform campaign. Dr. Walker was fre
quently mobbed and rotten-egged.
Crowds on her appearance on the streets
of cities followed her from place to
place hooting and booing.
In addition to frequent mobbings Dr.
talker became accustomed to frequent
arrests. In some states she succeeded
in getting laws passed permitting women
to wear men's clothing If they wished.
The last occasion on which Doctor
alker was arrested was during a visit
to Chicago. She had not suffered such
an Indignity In many years. A police
man stopped her and later In the publlo
court gave as his reason the assertion
that "no woman can wear pants on my
teat and get away with it."

By the Associated Press
Washington, Feb. 22. Support for the
Republican attacks In the Senate upon
tho propoed leagcu of nations came
from tho Democratic side today, when
Senator lleed, of Missouri, Democrat,
1 delivered n nrennrwl address In denun
ciation ot the plan.
Free American government. Senator
Heed asserted, would, through the
leaguo bo largely displaced by a gov

of
Internationalism, Senator need as-
serted that

visible In the leaguo con
were plainly

ica to fight foreign wars, he said, was
"monstrous."
The league charter. Senator Heed
also declared. p!nlnly conflicted with
the American Constitution, but he said
he would reserve discussion of that
point until some future time.

"Shall we make our government of

the words that were employed in ac
cepting the Hague convention In 1899
and again In 1907."
Mr. Hill, who Is a member of the
permanent administration council ot tho
Hague and a former ambassador to Ger
many, quoted this restriction as follows:
"Nothing contained In this convention
shall be so considered as to require the
United States of America to depart from
' Its traditional policy of not intruding
i upon. Interfering with, or entnngllng
Itself In the political questions or policy
r or Internal administration of a foreign
state; nor shall anything contained In
the said convention be construed to Im
ply a relinquishment by the United
States of America of its traditional atti
tude toward purely American ques
tions." "That we should faithfully perform
our part lnthe preservation of peace
among tne nuwunu unu in aeiense of the
j great principles of International law, no
. paixioiic American,
I am sure, would
for a moment doubt," Mr. Hill continued.
"Nor can It be assumed that occasions
may not arise. for one already has
arisen when It may become our duty
to send armies to distant lands In order
to suppress a common enemy. But this
docs not request our entering Into an
unlimited obligation In all circumstances
to assume protection ot distant peoples ;
to enter Into their disputes; to place
our resources at the disposal of a cen
tral authority that may at 'some time
be dominated by a combination cf Inter
ests adverse to our own ; to submit to
foreign control our standards of life,
our conditions and rewards of labor
and even power over cur fortunes nnd
our lives. There Is no good reason why
we should commit our posterity to such
unnecessary haiards."
Mr. Hill, who spoke at. a Washington
birthday celebration, said the ifatlon
must not. In promoting the aspiration
ror peace, ovenoon me concrete ex.
perlence of history. "It Is absurd to
assume," he declared, "that because we
desire peace, we have a warrant for
believing that national and racial
motives no longer exist For centuries,
compacts ot peace have been made and
broken, but the peoples have remained
J the same,"

British Delegates From Berne
Opposed Bolshevik Theory,
They Tell Premier
By the Associated Press
London, Feb. 22. One of the resolu
tions presented to Premier Lloyd George
by tho Brltlh delegation to the, Inter
national Labor nnd Socialist Confer,
ences, held recently In Berne, affirmed
the nccepted political principles ot demo
cratic socialism as opposed to the Bol
shevik theory, ns that Is generally un
derstood, and favored the appointment
of a commission of inquiry to proceed
to Bussla to lnestlgato the situation.
There was published today the Pre
mier's speech to the miners' executive
committee, which contained this pas
sage: "Wo have succeeded In starting up the
machinery for substituting reason tor
force nnd I hope strife between na
tions have gone forever. Is It concelv.
able that the nroa of conflict Is to be
transferred to Industry?"
Lord Curzon, of Kedtestnn, president
of the council, wns present when the
Premier received the Labor and Socialist
delegates at Downing street, Thursday.
A resolution submitted by the delega
tion dealt with responsibility for the
war, the lenguo of nations, territorial
questions, nn International labor charter
and prisoners of war.
The Premier Indicated his agreement
with a number ot tho problems. He
emphasized how tho same difficulties
encountered at Berne had been cncouiw
tercd by th,e government at the Peace
Conference.
Tho Premier's speech to tho miners
showed the feovcrnment apparently has
not settled tho policy concerning tho
nationalization of mines.

connict under existing circumstances
would not, ns formerly, be a conflict be-

was walking nlong the Pranerstrnsse to
attend the opening ot the Landtag, where
he Intended, to deliver an Important

Lieutenant Count Arco Valley, for
merly an officer In the Prussian Guards,
shouting "Down with the revolution!
Long live the Kaiser 1" fired nt Herr

Display lllnody Hpertneles
The first news of the tragedy reached
the Landtag when a Bavarian soldier
holding Herr Eisner's blood covered spec,
tacles entered, shouted, "Eisner has beon
murdered." Tho nssasslnatlon has ere
ated a great sensntlon nt Munich nnd
grave troubles are feared, as Herr Eisner
was the Idol of the population of the
city.
Herr Scheldemann, Bpenklng In the
National Assembly at Weimar, Is quoted
as saying:
"With the greatest sorrow and Indlg
nntlon I have to Inform you that the
Bavarlnn Trcmler Kurt Elimer, champion
of the revolution, has been shot by a
fanatic. Munich Is the scene of a bloody
civil war and my friends, ,Ross Hauptei
and Auer, nre said to he dead,
"The government expresses the deep
est 'sorrow nnd condemnation of these
shameful acts ot murder. Nothing snows
the breakdown of order more clearly
than when murder becomes a political
weapon. If the sacrificial death of Heir
Eisner has good results, they will be In
bringing us all together to do away
with evil conditions. It would mean the
ruin of Germany If all did not take this
view and Join In this condemnation."
The House stood while Chancellor
Scheldemann spoke.
Following tho shooting of Premier
Eisner, his body was carried Into the
foreign ministry, where It lies In the
porter's lodge.
Spartacan forces lit Munich Thurs
day stormed tha police station and ar
rested the chief of police and several
other persons, according to a reiwrt
from Berlin. The government forces
attacked the Spnrtacnns, and by 7
o'clock In the evening had recaptured
all public buildings.
