Dr. Bren- nan severely criticised the Sinn Fein meetings recently held in America for the disrespect of the audience to President Wilson. “It is deplorable,” said Dr, Brennan, “that at public meetings held under the auspices of Irish societies, osten- sibly for the purpose of enlisting the sympathy of the American people, the very name of the President of the United States was hissed and booed, Surely this is not the spirit of the real friends of Ireland tn this country.

WASHINGTON, July 31. — That Private Frank Frey of Paterson, N. J., Company D, 309th Infantry, was killed by a sentinel as a direct result of wilful disobedience of orders in time of war and in face of the enemy, is disclosed by inquiry at the War Department, following a sensational report brought back from France by; the dead soldier's “buddies” that he j had been bayoneted to death because he was a conscientious objector. An investigation into the efreum- stances surrounding the soldiers’ jdeath which has been conducted shows that Frey was not listed as a conscientious objector when he filled Tout his draft papers and he did not ask for exemption on this account, There is, War Department officials Bay, no record of the soldier's refusal to carry a rifle, and it appears that he went on the rifle range and will- ingly practised during the training period, which conscientious objectors usually refused to do. It develops that he did subsequently make state- ments to one or two of his comrades that he entertained scruples against killing, but he had never presented these views to his commanding officer, Placed under a British non-com- missioned officer after arrival in France, and put through tgorous bay- | onet practice daily, the soldier ts al-| leged to have become insubordinate and his opposition to fighting became intensified. ‘While on the bayoneting field at Boulinghem he threw down his gun and refused to drill and as a result he wus tried by court martial August 14, 1918, for refusal to obey ordo.s and sentenced to two years’ imprison- ment and $$ per month to be held out of his pay for a period of one year. Before the reviewing authori- ties had time to act on this the sol- dier was killed by a guard two weeks {later . An investigating board was ap- pointed and the facts of the case as reported by this board were as fol-| lows: At Vitrey, on the way to the front, | Frey detrained with his organization, but refused to pick up his pack and move out of the way of his company, which was marching off a narrow railroad platform. After he had refused to obey the order to move, the matter was re- ported to the battalion commander by his company officer, The battalion commander sent an officer of the guard requesting the detail of a sen- tinel. A private answered the sum- mons and was directed by the bat- talion commander to s6é that Frey picked up his pack and moved on. The evidence shows that the ser tinel twice directed Frey to obey these instructions, Frey is alleged to have become very sulky and assumed @ crouching position as if about to spring upon the guard,’ who then struck him with his bayonet, piercing his left breast. died immedi- ately, before an organization surgeon could reach him. Following military procedure, the sentinel was placed under arrest and later tried by eral court martial, on Aug. 3! court martial exonerated the sentinel, agreeing with the board investigating F death that he was killed while not in the line of duty and as a direct result of wilful disobedience in time of war and In face of the enemy. ‘The soldier's mother, who lives at No. 118 Putnam Street, Paterson, will be prevented from receiving ance money as a result of Fre: ing death outside the line of duty. <—~_——— POTATO GROP ESTIMATED AT 391,000,000 BUSHELS In spite of a smaller acreage de- voted to potatoes this year, a good of the United States Department of Agriculture, which places it at 8 748,000 bushela, This is less than last year’s yleld of more than 400,000,000, but above the five-year average of 366,046,000.
