Persistent reports are in circulation that at no far distant date Senator Smoot will be called to head the Mormon church, a summons which, as a de vout member of that denomination, lie could not ignore. It is at this juncture that seniority rule comes home to plague its most devoted adherents. Next to Senator Smoot in point of seniority is Sen ator Robert M. La Follctte, Wiscon sin. An equally disconcerting pros pect to the old guard rises in con nection with the succession in the foreign relations committee. Sena tor Lodge, Massachusetts, republi can Kadcr in the senate, is chairman and Senator McCumbcr is second in command. Senator Borah. Idaho, timlcr the seniority rule, would step into the chairmanship of the foreign icbitions committee. Another possibility growing out of the elimination of "old timers" ?,nd the deration of the seniority rule is thai Senator La Follctte may be come chairman of the interstate com . tvcri e committee, which lias charge of all legislation relating to the rail roads.

Free state troops entered the east wing of the Four Courts building, held by Gen. Rory O'Connor's irregulars, at midnight. Many prisoners were tak en, but a small body is still holding out. Artillery fire in Dublin has ceased. London, June 29. (By A. P.) Fighting in the streets of Dublin is increasing in Jntemity, says a Cen tral News dispatch from the Irish capital at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Irregulars on the outskirts of the beseiged Four Courts district are receiving reintorcements, the mes sage says.

Eamon De Valcra, in an inter view granted today at headquar ters of the republican party, eulo gized the Irish army dissentients, who are holding the Four Courts as "the best and bravest in our nation." "They would most loyally have obeyed the will of the Irish peo ple, freely expressed, but are not willing that Ireland's independ ence should be abandoned under the lash of an alien government," he said. cessant, with the casualties, estimated this forenoon at more than 50, hourly increasing. The insurgents have extended their operations in other parts of the city. Shortly before noon, an ambush of free state troops was reported from College Green, and the irregulars were fortifying various outposts. A party of free state forces on the watch for insurgent activities poured a volley into a public house in the vicinity of yesterday's .ambush ' One of the outling places seized hv the irregulars was the Sacksville Street club, an old fashioned aristo cratic country gentleman's club, near the Nelson pillar. In addition to the various organized operations of the insurgents, their sympathizers in sev eral parts of the city, acting as snip ers,' made many attacks on freestate 3oldiers. Replies Feeble. Meanwhile, the replies from O'Con nor's men to the firing on the Four Courts were feeble. The garrison, which is believed to number about 150. is said, however, to have un limited supplies of ammunition and plenty of provisions. This seems to point to apprehension that Rory O'Connor's forces might be supplemented by the arrival of his followers from the provinces, in some parts of viich the irregular army has a strong support. The same apprehension seems evident in the manifesto issued by Richard Mul cahy, dail minister of defense, in which he makes an eloquent appeal to the army, explaining why it is asked to fight against its old com rades. Public sentiment, from all indica tions, is virtually unanimous in sup port of the government's action. The most menacing feature of the situation from the provisional rov- ernment's standpoint is the fact that (Turn to Face Two, Colnmn Two.)

Each Also Fined $10,000 1 he "potash quartet" W. A. Mc Whorter, V. G. Chipley, ( 'baric Wohlberg and Jacob Masse were )etcrday m litem cd to the federal penitentiary at Lruvcnuorth for two years, lined $10,010 each and ordered to pay the cons of their proceution, estimated at $5,000. They are to remain in jail until all costs are paid, Federal Judge Mun ger stipulated in pronouncing sen tence. Attorneys for the four immediately served notice of an appeal to the cir cuit court and gave supersedeas bonds, which wcrchxed at $12,0110 each. Maximum Sentence. Muuger's sentence is the maximum for conspiracy to use the mails to defraud. in response to picas Attorney A. L. Sutton made for leniency for his clients, Judge Munger delivered an emphatic a.uswcr. "It would be a serious reproach to the law if men who defraud in nocent victims old people and cripples should be treated any dif ferently than the average criminal who takes only a few hundred dol lars. Much can be said in defense of any criminal, but there was plenty of evidence to show these promoters got as much as they could at the ex pense of persons who trusted them." Sutton Makes Plea. Sutton's plea was that the four were not "common criminals." "They are not 'penitentiary birds'," he declared. "They did not know, had never heard of that section of the penal code they are accused of violating. lie declared Wohlberg was the sole support of a widowed mother and a sister and had sent two broth ers through college; that Chipley, an old man, came from an old southern family that would be disgraced to "come and look at him behind the bars;" that Masse had spent his last cent in his defense and his wife would have to go to work to support her self; and that McWhorter was brohen, financially and physically, and could not live two years if he were scut to the penitentiary. Under Another Indictment. Wohlberg has been in Omaha since his conviction in the spring, but the' other three arrived on morning trains. Sentence was set for yester day because their attorney left last night for Europe and because Judge Munger was in town yesterday for the barristers' field day. Tom Allen of Lincoln, formerly L'nited States district attorney, un der whose regime indictments were returned against the four, will repre sent them in the appeal case, which probably will not come up until the September erm of court. The four sr-'tenced yesterday also are under indictment for using the mails to defraud in promoting the Missouri Valley Cattle Loan and the Great Western Commercial Body companies. Senator Borah Scores Ship Subsidy Measure Omaha Be Ionised Wire. '.Washington, June 29. The ad ministration ship subsidy program is "a perfectly vicious policy of reliev ing a certain class from taxation," according to a statement made by Senator Borah. Idaho. Senator Borah took the occasion to comment on the ship subsidy bill in connection with renewed activity among republicans for a change in rules making it less difficult to apply a cloture rule os tensibly to limit debate on the tariff. "The real object of cloture at this particular time and the reason for so much activity in regard to it is, in my judgment, to assist putting throueh the shin subsidy," said Senator Borah. "That measure will ! not stand discussion. If it were thoroughly discussed and the. details of the bill explained, it would result in leaving a large number of congressmen who might vote for it at home." j Soviet Russia Raises Limit on Incoming Mail ' Washington.

Colorado Troops Mobilizing for Duty at Mines Nine Companies of National Guard Called Out Follow ing of Railway Bridges. Denver. June 29. Nine companies of the Colorado National guard are under orders to mobilize tonight in seven cities and town of the state, following the burning of two rail road bridge and the damaging of mines in northern and southern Colo rado coal fields lat night and early today. Orders for the mobilization of the guard and for the recruiting of state ranger force from its present strength of 50 men to a total strength of approximately 400 were issued late today bv Col. Patrick J. Hamrock, state ?djutant genera', following a conference with Governor Oliver H. Shoup. Governor Acts Promptly. First reports of the burning of bridges and mines in the coal field were received at the adjutant gen eral's office this morning. Within an hour Governor Shoup. who had been at his home in Colorado Soring, was on his way to Denver. In less than half an hour after the confer ence between the governor and the adjutant general, telephonic orders were being dispatched to command ing officers of the various guard units. , . Steel helmets to equip the organi zations were ordered shipped from Denver. These helmets were re ceived recently from the United States government. With the receipt of the helmets the guardsmen will have ; th identical field equipment used by the United States army in France with the ex ception of gas masks, Colonel Ham rock announced. To Preserve Order. "The orders from the governor are to preserve order in the state of Colorado and to nrotect life and property." Colonel Hamrock said in a statement. "The mobilization of the National guard is a preventive measure against any violence or trouble. Martial law will not be de clared unless iolenje is resorted to by the enemies of law and order. We do not expect aoy opposition to law and order from the rank and file Colorado miners. They are law abiding citizens. But groups of radicals have drifted into the state during recent months and it is these radicals who arc making preventive measures necessary." The principal outbreaks which led up to the events of today occurred near Walfenburg in Huerfano coun ty in the south Colorado coal field. Two railroad bridges, one near the Ideal mine of the Colorado Fuel & Tron company and the other at the Rouse mine of the same company, were burned between midnight and 6 this morning.. Four mines of the Colorado Fuel & Iron company are cut off from railroad communication by the burning of the bridges. In addition, the tipple of the Stc'.la May mine property, near Walsenburg, was fired during the night and par tially destroyed. Former Russ Princess Aided by Charity Body Philadelphia. Pa., June 29.

The British Oil Camp Seized by Band of Mexiean Rebels Half Dozen Americans Among 83 Men Taken by Raiders 9,000 Pesos Demanded for Surrender. Washington, June 29. Overnight advices to the State department from Tampico served to change materially the situation in the Mexican oil re gion resulting from the holding for ransom by a rebel band of 40 Amer ican employes at the Aguada camp of the Cortez Oil company, an American owned concern. Consul Shaw reported that the rebel chief, Gorozave, and his men left the camp Monday morning hfter a 24-hour stay. Tha message, flated yesterday, seemed "to have clcalid the air, but on its heels came aoether dispatch, filed last night by the consul, saying that the rebels had seized the Pcccra camp of the British owned La Corona company and that about half a dozen Americans were among the 85 men held there. Demand 9,000 Pesos. Xo further advices came today. In demanding 9,000 pesos for the sur render of the Pecera property and the employes the rebels fixed July 2 as the date by which payment must be made. Whether the 15,000 pesos demanded at the camp was paid is not stated in any of the messages. The State department promptly in structed Charge Summerlin at Mex ico City to make representations in regard to adequate protection for any Americans held in connection with the new raid on the British owned company. Mr. Summerlin also was directed to press Mexican federal authorities to capture and punish bandits who captured A. Bruce Bie laski. Beyond these new representations to the Obregon government there was no indication the State depart ment intended to move at present. It was pointed .iut that the depart ment was not in possession of any information tending to snow that the raids in the oil region were more than they appeared to be on the face of Consul Shaw's reports, the operations of bandits levying or seeking to levy tribute on the oil companies. Troops Sent to Tcmpico. I!otb official and unofficial advices showed that the Obregcn govern ment was moving additional troops into the Tampico district for the ev;dt nt purpose of suppressing rebel cr tiiudit activities. It is generally assumed here thit sufficient troops will be cistributed about the district to prevent such raids as those of Gorozave as quickly as possible. It was evident also from the re ports, official or otherwise, reaching Washington from the oil region dur ing the week that communication with the outlying camps is slow at best and that detailed accounts of what took place at the Aguada prop erty have been unavailable as yet to Consul Shaw. He did report, how ever,' that Gorozave, on leaving the American camr. Monday, threatened to return and seize the nearby iJntish Pecera camp and abo prop erty of the Mexican and Gulf Oil company in the same region.
