C London, Wednesday, March 6.
flht House of Commons paid tribute
Sto the memory of John E. Redmond
today when Premier Lloyd George
land various party leaders expressed
aheir sense of the loss the house had
Sustained. v " v
t Ut. Lloyd George said the house
jvas shocked profoundly by the un
expected news of the death of one of
tits oldest, most respected and eminent
umbers. ? Mr Redmond had been a
members of the house for 37 years
and during that period, the premier
padded, he had grown in the esteem,
admiration and. .affection of the mem
bers of all parties.'
j? That was a great thing to say of
&ny member, Mr. Lloyd George con.
Sinued, but it was the greatest thing
jlo say of a man who had been en
gaged in one of the fiercest contro
versies of our time. There might be
Wifference of opinion as to the policy
Hot which he stood and fought, but
there was absolutely no difference of
Opinion as to the ability, judgment,
Wignity and honorableness which he
.devoted to that policy.
' Tragedy for Ireland.
I Premier Lloyd George said that
fylr. Redmond gave up everything in
feervice for Ireland and it was one of
tthe tragedies of that land that he was
Struck down before he achieved the
treat purpose of his life. Warm
Tribute, he said, had been paid to the
iliationalist leader by his political op
ponents in the Irish convention, who
tt rusted and believed in him. Mr.
fRedmond went to the convention
bowed down with sorrow and his
friends knew the physical tortures he
(endured white serving his, country in
ithat trying position. 1 v r' '
L Mr: Redmond's last words to the
premier when he saw him a few days
fcago, a broken man, were a. plea for
Jtoncord between the two races that
iprovidence had decided hould work
tfoether for the common! aims of hu-
amty. , ,

AUSTRIA CLUTCHES
AT HOPEOF PEACE
Wilson's Fourteen Proposals
Still Create Discussion
Among . Central
Powers.
New York, March 7. President
Wilson's address to congress early
in January, in which he defined 14
conditions for, world-wide peace, has
acted like a leaven in the political
life of Austria-Hungary .and the con
ditions are reverted to over and over
again as a possible or concrete basis
for negotiations, at appears from the
discussions in German newspapers of
the latter part of January, now re
ceived here.
The president's proposals also have
received considerable attention in
Germany. The papers there explain
the favorable echo the proposals have
evoked in Austria by stating that, the
objectionable parts of the president's
address do not apply to Austria as vi
tally as they do to Germany. :
Various members of the Austrian
House of Deputies declared in the
budget committee of that body that
it was a mistake to reject the Wilson
proposals coolly and contemptuously.
A Polish deputy in a peace debate
in the Austrian house of January 22
rejected the idea that Germany had
saved Austria from defeat He said
that without the aid of Austria, Bul
garia and Turkey Germany would not
have been able to fight off its enemies.

Government Defends Geddes
, , In Jeliicoe Affair
London, Wednesday, March 6.
Whether Sir Erie Geddes, first lord of
the admiralty, was right or wrong in
dismissing Admiral Jeliicoe from the
post of sea lord, he had done what he
considered best in the interest of the
country, Andrew Bonar Law declared
in . the . House of Commons today as
spokesman for the government, in re
ply to criticisms of the first lord's ac
tion. He added: v- jt
"The oremier has assured me priv
ately that he had absolutely nothing to
do wim anything manias appeared
in the press regarding Admiral
Jeliicoe and that the suggestion was
entirely unfounded that any member
of the government, either the premier
or Sir Eric Geddes, had taken such a
despicable course." 1

RESTAURANT MAN
IS CHARGED WITH
HOARDING FOOD
Japanese of Grand Island
Pleads Guilty to Having Too
Much Hour in His '
Possession. -
Shindo. a Japanese, who operates
a restaurant in Grand Island, was
cited before the food administration
here Tuesday on a charge of hoard
ing flour and of buying flour without
substitutes. With his friend, Frank
Ohdo, who could talk English, and
his attorney, Shindo appeared before
E. M. Fairfield, of the division of
Enforcement. Shindo admitted his
guilt, pleading ignorance of the rules
and regulations of the food adminis
tration, but declaring that he wanted
to live up to these regulations.
On his promise to pay the expenses
of a representative of the food ad
ministration for 30 days, Shindo was
permitted to go, after he had signed
an affidavit, admitting his infractions
of the rules. ...
The food representative will be se
lected by Mrs. C. G. Ryan, county
federal food administrator of Hall
county. The duties of the inspector
will be to thoroughly inform Shindo
of the rules and to see that he ob
serves them.
J. M. Weber & Sons, millers, Sut
ton, also appeared before Fairfield
Thursday to answer a charge of sell
ing flour in excess quantities and
without substitutes. Weber ad
mitted his violation, but justified it by
saying he had been working under
directions from the milling1 division,
with headquarters in Kansas City. a
Weber's affidavit that he would, in
the future, abide by the Nebraska
promulgations) and admitting his guilt
was sufficient to permit him to go for
another chance.

Stpecker Seeks to Have Court
Eject Girl From Cplonade Hotel
William F. Stoecker, - wealthy
Omaha hotel owner, sued for divorce
and $100,000 alimony by Theresa
Stoecker, seeks to have her ejected
from possession of the Colonade ho
tel, 2474 Harney street, in a bill filed
in district court, for an accounting of
rents alleged to have been received by
her.
$toecker's petition denies he ever
entered into the marriage relation
with Theresa Stoecker, either by cere
money or contract He, declares she
has no right to the jiame Theresa
Stoecker and that her real name is
Theresa Yilek. ;,
The relation between them was that
of employer and employe, he de
clares, she being originally a chamber
maid at the Colonade and later ad
vanced to the position of housekeeper.
She was also authorized to collect the
rents for him, Stoecker says. These
amounted to approximately $275 a
month, he says.
When he left for Chicago on a trip
of combined business and pleasure,
January 15 ,1918, he left the Colonade
in charge of his real estate agents, he
avers,- but they were not allowed to
take charge of the property or collect
the rent because of the opposition of
Theresa.
' When she filed her petition for di
vorce he returned, Stoecker declares,
only to find his appartment in the
Colonade rented to other persons.
He says Theresa drove him from
the place, threatening to shoot him
and do him other bodily harm.
He asks the cjurt to order her to
move from the premises, to restrain
her from interfering with its operation
and to render an accounting for rents
collected by her. "
