OF STiTE RESIGNS

use the army to crush Ulster's politi
cal opposition to the home rule bill.
The correspondence, however, points
out that the government retains its
right to use the army to maintain law
and order.
The orders issued by the War Office
in respect to the duties of the army
in Ireland, chiefly in connection with
the protection of government stores,
arms and ammunition, ar© given very
completely. The correspondence, how
ever, omits the verbal communication
made by General Sir Arthur Paget to
the officers at the Curragh camp which
led to their resignations and which
tho government argues was the re
sult of a "misunderstanding."
In Close Communication
That tho version of General Paget's
communication read by Andrew Bo
nar Law, leader of the opposition in
the House of Commons on Monday
was substantially correct seems clearly
indicated. Mr. Law on that occasion
read a letter in which General Paget
stated that "active operations were to
begin against Ulster and that it was
expected the country would be In a
blaze by Saturday." The Irish com
mander-in-chief wrote that he was In
close communication with the War
Office and had received Instructions
from headquarters to notify his offi
cers that those of them domiciled in
Ulster would be allowed to disappear
and be afterward reinstated. They
must, however, give their word of
honor not to fight for Ulster.
"In the published correspondence
Brigadier General Hubert Gough un
derlines phrases such as "active op
erations" when asking for further in
formation and It appears evident that
tie was quoting tho remarks of General
Paget

failing to make reports iri the past by
reason of tho fact that the law was
not understood, he intends this month
to tako active measures to see that
those who fall to comply with the. law
and not make reports will be vigor
ously prosecuted. He states that this
is not intended as a hardship and all
that he desires is a reasonable com
pliance with the law, which Is of the
utmost value to the people of Penn

all accidents occurring, with speci
fications of their causes, the depart
ment will be able to take measures. In
co-operation with employers, which
will reduce the sum total probably not
less than 50 or more per cent. It can
be readily conceived that such a ro
duction will not only avoid enormous
suffering to those who are afflicted by
the accidents and their families, but
will be an economic saving running
into large denominations to tho peop.o
of the State as a whole."
PIGE'S SPEECH IS

the Panama canal even for vou. For
I am speaking with great frankness
and not with diplomatic indirection.
We built it for reasons of our own.
But I will say that it adds to the
pleasure of building that, great work
that you will profit by it. You will
profit most by it for you have the
greatest carrying trade. I can say a
similar thing about the recent lower
ing ol our tariff. We did not lower
it in order to please you. It was for
purposes that we considered eco
nomically sound for ourselves.
Express Self-Respect
"Nevertheless it added to the pleas
ure of doing that to reflect that there
by we should have more trade with
you. Concerning the recent message
of the President I take It upon my
self, on my own responsibility, to say
tliis. He delivered that message not
to please y.ou, but to express the true
sentiment and self-respect of the
American nation. As [ interpret it
his was the voice of the people.
Nevertheless, it adds to the pleasure
of hearing that voice to know that It
does ploase you."
The portion referring to the Mon
roe Doctrine follows:
"May I put in another parenthesis,
also on my own account, and correct
an impression that a part of your
press seems to have about the attitude
of the United States government con
cerning the investment of your co
lossal earnings in States of Central
America that have volcanic tenden
cies? I sometimes read that tho
United States is entering upon a pol
icy to discourage foreign investments
there. That is untrue. I think that
some events are happenings there that
have discouraged them somewhat, but
T hope that they cannot be churged to
the United States.
Welcome Investments
"There is a policy forming in the
minds of our government and our peo
ple which is not new that would dis
courage such investments or such con
cessions as would carry with them
the control of the government of any
of those States and only such for so
far as the United States is concerned
you know how heartily we have wel
comed your investments in our land
and still welcome thom and always
will. You may be assured that It Is
none of the business of the United
States to put any let or hindrance
upon any legitimate investments of
ycrurs anywhere in the world and they
most heartily welcome your invest
ments in any part of the Americas,
provided only you do not make them
so that you may possibly take the
country with them.
"The Monroe Doctrine meant this,
when It was first formulated, that the
United States would object to any
European governments taking more
land in the New World. In those
days the only way that a foreign gov
ernment could gain land was literally
to go and take it. Now we have more
refined methods of exploitation and
there are other ways to take it That
is the only protest that the United
States has ever whispered. You will,
I am Bure, understand why the United
States prefers that no land in the new
world should be acquired in these new
subtle ways. Would you do us the
kindness clearly to understand that,
and possibly to correct the ralslmpres
sion that has gone abroad 7"

more to Dauphin county, waged vigor
ously in the court all day.
Attorneys for the State and for sev
eral cities and boroughs declared that
the People's Coal Company, of Scran
ton, had shown no grounds for relief
in equity In bringing the suit to test
thy constitutionality of the anthracite
tonnage law of 1913. The Scranton
company is understood to represent a
number of other anthracite producers
and the suit, which was filed in Jan
uary, will probably go clear up to the
highest court of the State, maybe, even
to the I'nited States Supremo Court,
for adjudication. ,
President Judge George Kunkel,
who has sat ill a number of famous j
suits to test constitutionality, was on
th'i bench and the coal company was
represented by Major Everett Warren,
of Scranton; W. Frank Wheaton, of
Wilkes-Barre, and Ralph Reimer, gen
eral counsel of the People's company.
Deputy Attorney General Hargest took
charge of the case for thp State, seated
at the State's table being David J.
Davies, city solicitor of Scranton: R.
A. Zimmerman and H. C. Reynolds,
representing the Scranton Board of
Trade; Mark Kdgar, secretary of the
Scranton Board, who appeared in be
half of the tax at the meeting of the
State taxation commission: Charles
McHugh, solicitor of Wilkes-Barre; R.
B. Sheridan, Nanticoke; Joseph A.
O" Boyle, Plttston, and attorneys repre
senting Pottsvllle and other interested
cities and boroughs.
The plaintiffs offered an amendment
to the bill in equity at the opening of
the court, charging that in addition to
the reasons advanced some time ago
for declaring the law unconstitutional
the law was local legislation and that,
being such, it was illegal because it
had not been advertised.
Speaking for tho State, Air. Hargest i
declared that the. company had failed i
to show in its bill any grounds for re
lief In equity. Tho law provides a way
for a tost without invoking tho
extraordinary powers of a court ot
equity, because there are laws which
allow appeals from tax settlements by
the State which aro used every day
and which have been employed to se
cure adjustment of cases Involving
millions of dollars. Mr. Hargest at
tacked the averments that, the law
offended against the constitutions of
the United States and of the State be
cause of loss as not well taken. Tak
ing up the contention that tho law was
a "makeshift" and that a portion of
tho Income might be used for payment
for surface damages, he said that such
a statement was "scandalous" and that
tho plaintiff had no right to attack
the Scato on such an assumption. As
to the great and Irreparable injury
j which it was averred the company
would suffer if compelled to tile re
ports and comply with the law by
February 1, he said that the statement
won absurd because the companies had
complied with the law and had filed
reports. He remarked that the plaln
! tiff does not come into court with such
clean hnnds as it should have in equity
during his remarks on this section.
The deputy attorney general went
i all through the bill and attacked each
! averment. On the amendments he
said that if the tonnage tax was local
legislation, then all anthracite laws
were also local.
In answering the demurrer of tho
State to the suit Major Warren made
the remark about hard and soft shell
crabs to support his contention that
the classification clause had been
ignored. H<f argued that the Dauphin
County Court can take jurisdiction in
tho case and asked what earthly dif
ference It made whether the coso was
settled on the legal or equity side of
court. 'Equity, he asserted, is the placo
to settle the integrity of the law and
cited proceedings in valuation of coal
! lands In Lackawanna and Luzerne
! counties in support of his contention.
Taking up tho answer of the State
I that there was impertinent matter in
the bill, he denied it and said that if
i tho Supreme Court could go into the
history of the school code the bill
could go into the history of the act,
and that if tho State's highest court
called the coke "a subterfuge" in a
dissenting opinion the present act
might be styled a "makeshift" in a
bill. Indications were given that the
caso may go to the United States
I "ouvts by references made by the
I major to the fact that all but 8 per
j cent, of the anthracite is sold outside
of the State.
The law. he said, added a tax to coal
; and did not relieve the land from local
I taxation; it has a defective title, and
I the penalty for failing to make a re
nort he styled "a club." Throughout
I hia argument Major Warren resented
j the attitude of the State and once said
that the State was to blame for the
delay in getting a hearing because of
length of time taken to file its de
murrer.
Tho main argument against the con
stitutionality of the act was that it
i violated the classification clause, the
I major contending that it draws a hard
and fast line between anthracite and
} bituminous. Taxation, he said, must
be uniform, and the coal produced in
eight counties is to be taxed and that
produced in twenty-eight others is ex
empted.
No decision is expected to-day.
Tango Artists Appear

The. three hundred or more em
ployes of the Moorehead Knitting
