LONDONDERRY AT MERCY OF RIOTOUS MOBS SATURDAY NIGHT Belfast, May 16.—(By The A. P.) Lon- donderry experienced a night of terror Saturday, part of the city being for hours at the mercy of riotous. mobs. During the disturbance Sergeant Dennis Moroney, chief of the special criminal department of the city, was shot through the right lung and died within half an hour. Londonderry thus gains the un- enviable reputation of being the scene of the first police murder in Ulster since the opening of -the assassination cam- paign on January 1, 1919. The other casualties included James McCafferty, aged 18, shot in the chest; District Inspector McDonagh, wounded in the head with a stone while leading a police charge, and John McCallion a former soldier, wounded in the head with a bayonet. After minor disturbances early in the night, the ill-feeling between the Sinn Feiners and loyalists flamed up. _About ten o'clock the air was thick with bot- tles, stones and other missiles, while re- volvers were freely discharged. When hostilities were in full swing, 48 police- men, armed with carbines, arrived in command of Inspector McDonagh, wha persuaded the loyalists to retire to their quarters, which was accomplished amid singing, cheering and other manifesta- tions on the part of the rival factions. The ®inn Feiners continued their dis- orderly demonstrations and the police charged and scattered them into the side streets. Many of them made for the Quay near the Great Northern station. It was here that Moroney met his end Rioters concealing themselves behind the railway wagons directed volleys of re volver shots pointblank at the police. This led to hot exchange of fire. Moro- ney was struck, walked a few yards and collapsed, excl: in “Boys, I'm done!” " A few rds from this scene, McCaf- f.’.”“ was found Iving on a tramway line. He said he was on his way home from the theater when shot. During these happenings a TUnionist crowd literally took possession of the thoroughfare in the neighborhood of 4:Hrhs|t’ Square and stoned persons be- lv.»\r‘d to be of different political persu: n. The audience at the Emuire thea- ter was stoned so furiously when cleav- ing that they had to return, the doors being barricaded. Shortly after mid- Ill.’:!\l troops were summoned and with their aid matters soon quieted down. SITUATION IN KIEV NoT SO BAD AS DESCRIBED Warsaw, May 15—(By The A.

Morton, former governor = of New York state and viee president of the United States under President Benjamin Harri- son died at his home at Ellerslie, Rhine- beck, at 8.30 o'clock tonight, on the 96th ry of his birth. Mr. Morton was taken ill with a slight cold three or four days ago but his con- dition did not become serious until this ing, when bronchial pneumonia de- He lapsed into unconseiousness soon after and the end came peacetully at 8.30 o'clock. With him at his bed- side when he died were his daughter. Mrs. Helen Morton, who had made her home with him at Ellerslie, his country estate, since the death of Mrs. Morton in August, 1918; his daughter and son- in-law, Mr. and Mrs. William C. Eus- tis, of Washington, D. C., and his ne- phew, Morton Minot. Another daughter, Miss Mary Morton, of Germantown, Pa. will arrive tomor- row morning, having been unable 10 reach Rhinebeck tonight. Mr. - Morton's 96th birthday was formally celebrated yesterday when the vhildren of the Rhinebeck schools held a field day at his country estate. He had returned to Ellerslie from Washington, where he made his residence -on May 8 and had been in apparently good health until the middle of last week. Arangements for the funeral, which will be held at Ellerslie, have not been completed. Inter- ment will be in the family plot in Rhinebeck. Levi Parsons Morton was the twenty- second vice president of the United States, the running mate of Benjamin Harrison in 1888. At 71 years of age he rounded out his political life as governor of New York state. Although born the son of a clergyman in poor circumstances at Shoreham, Vt., in 1824, he forced his way to the front in the business and financial world until { he became one of the money powers of the country. He had the bicod of a nancier in his veins—descendant as he was of George Morton of York, Kng. who raised funds to send the Pilgrims to America on the Mayflower. Clerk in a country store at 14, pro- prietor of his own little drygoods store at 21, he started his banking career at 28 as a partner of Junius . Morgan, fa- ther of the late J. Pierpont Mergan, and ten years later founded his own house | of L. P. Morton & Co., Which became the | ficcal agent of the government. Under his guidance, it conducted some of the largest negotiations in the history of American finance. Its London branch floated the 5 per cent. loan, with other European bankers, which enabled the United States government to resume spe- cie payment in 1871, saving $70,000 000 in interest. This payment had pended during and after the Civil -war. When a New York man was desired in 1888 to stand on the republican national ticket with Benjamin Harrison, Mr. Mor- ton was the choice of the convention by a large majority. As presiding officer in the senate he gained the praise of both parties for the vigor and the fairness of his policy. Mr. Morton concluded his political career as governor of his state, taking office in 1895 and serving two years. He signed the bill which abol- ished the ward-irustee system of school government in New York city, and the so-called Raines liquor law. After leaving office in his vigorous old age he still was active in the direc- torates of many corporations. He was rated as a millionaire, many times over. first wife was Lucy Kimball, in 1871 { home in the land. board the Electra dio gonometer” n Taylor, K Mr. Morton was twice married.

Its early dispatch to the presi- dent, however, is certain. Chairman Porter of the house for- eign affairs committee is prepared to ask that the.resolution as adopted late Yesterday by the senate, be sent to con- ference as soon as it is formally brought into the house. There is no indication that his request will encounter opposi- tion and Speaker Gillett is ready to name Mr. Porter, Representiative Rogers of Massachusett another republican, and Representative Flood, democrat, Virginia, as house conferees. Before this action, however, the senate must formally name its conferees. Sen- ator Lodge and Senator Hitcheock, ri- val leaders in the treaty fight, will be named but ranking nex to Senator Lodge among the republicans on the foreign relations committée is Senator McCumber of North Dakota, who op- posed the resolution and leaders said there was doubt as to whether he would | be designated. s soon as the resolution goes to con- which will be early in the aders in the congress do not es any trouble in ironing out the dif- ferences between the two branche: While the senate resolution differs en- from the house measure, the aim of the two is the same and the trouble is largely one of phraseology. There are, however, some essential differences as follows: Senate omi ion, making the resolution inoperative as to Germany unless that country formally gives to the United States all rign and privileges that might have accrued e | to. this country had it accepted the peace the campaign to defeat the enemies of | treaty. The senate ended the war with both Germany and Austria, while the house acted toward Gevmany alone. Different methods for bringing peace officially, the senate repealing the decla- ration 6f war and the house declaring the state of war at an end. President Wilson's veto of the reso- ution is regarded as a certainty. There as been no announcement as to wheth- er an attempt will be made to override the veto, but democ CANONIZATION OF JOAN OF ARC IN BASILICA, ROME, IMPRE Rome, May 16.—(By The A. P.)

Another tri- bune that attracted much attention con- tained 140 descendants of the family of Joan of Arc. These belonging to all anks of life and coming from all parts of France, had for the most part never met eqch other before. Three times as many applied for seats as relatives of Joan of Arc's family but their claims were not dmitted. Further along there was a tribune for the Roman ar y, the Knights of Malta headed Count Lambertenghi the diplomatic body accredited to the Holy See and a special mission headed by Gabriel Hanotaux, sent by the French republic. The diplomatic tribune glittered with uniforms and decorations of all kinds. Diego Von B the German am- bassador to the Vatican. made his first appearance at a function. Ue wore ev ening dress, in striking conirast to the gorgeous uniforms of the other diplo- matic representatives. From 60,000 to 70,000 persons were present at the canonization ceremonie: The vast temple was filled from dawn with the crowd which gathered from al! parts of the world. The Pontiff was received at the en- trance to the basicilica by Cardinal Merry del Val, arch-priest of St. Pe- ter's, with the Vatican chapter. The choir sang “Tu Es Petrus” while the faithful sank to their knees but did not allow any details of the magnificent procession to pass uncbserved. ARMENIANS ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH FRENCH Constantinople, May 15.(—By The A. P.)=—Evidence tending to show that Mus- tapha Kemal Pasha has been encouar- ing his folowers to enlist in the sultan’s army for the purpose of spreading pro- »aganda and creating general demoraliza- tion, continues to accumulate. French courtmartial at Adana has convicted the Armenian archbishop Moushejh on a charge of inciting trouble between Turks and Armentans and has sentenced hi mto ten years' imprisonment with forfeiture of all his property. Hostility appears to be growing be- tween the Armenians and French in Cill- cia, the Armenians charging that the French are either unable or unwilling to protect Christians and are placing pro- tection of their territorial claims above protection of the lives of their allies.
