Washington. — The dockers of , the federal courts throughout the ( country are swamped 'with fake stock swindling cases in which more thun 9110,000,000 has been taken from in- ' cautious investors. Attorney General i Dangherty said. I There are, lie added, a total of 480 | •f these cases in the federal courts, I - la which 874 persons have been ar- J j rested or Indicted. "It would take one Judge, working | twelve months a year, 1,000,000 years j 1 to clean up the docket," Daugherty j ; . paid. j : Most of the cases, he explained, were j i fake oil stock companies, although the |, swindling schemes ranged from bucket Shops and mining stocks .o pateni "elephant catcher" promotions. RfHr 1 'harvests are reaped by swindlers, he 1 asserted, because people do not take • pains to Investigate what they put i their money Into. The department of Justice, Daugh- ( crty continued, conies Into the prosecution of such cases through violation •f the postal laws In the u*e of the snails to defraud, hut lie declared that In his opinion, the matter is one for ! State action. A conference of state 1 •tfiue sky" law commissioners, he sug- j seated, should be held, to frame a uniform law carrying a uniform punishment for stocks swindlers. He also said he believed in more ■trtngent Isws by the state* and heavier penalties lu such cases. ST0CKH0LDERSWRECK STORE 200 Raging Women Carry Off Goods In Erio Cooperative Concern.

The Unionists said they would be!] held captive until the foot ball prison- ; I ' era (supposedly members of the Irish ; I i Republican army, and accused. of car j , rylng arms into Ulster) were released. ( A large body of troops appeared on , the streets of Belfast. They the first to be sent here 'since ilie renewed ■ outbreak of disorders began. (The British government his announced the ' forces In Ulster will be Increased by I i at least five battalions.) ■ - Four children wounded in a bomb | attack In Weaver street, died In a bos 1 pltal overnight. Twenty-two persons were wounded by the missile, but thirteen were sen 1 1 ' home after hospital treatment. I Martha O'Hanlon, 13 years, who j was wounded in tbe neck and ami by I | the bomb, said at a hospital she and , ! a number of companions were skipping 1 rope_onjhe sidewalk when the bomb ] was" thrown among them. She and ' most of her companions were wounded by splinters.

'j London. — Michael Collins' dm-L mutic disclosure of an alleged Ue-J publican plot to overthrow the provls- 1 tonal government, the sudden and un. 1 1 explained suspension of the British !c military evacuation, and the dangerous tension between the north and south bate combined to produce a sensation- 2 al situation in Ireland. The outcome no one hero ventures - to forecast more definitely than by speculating ou the dreaded possibilities, but dispatches show that the pie sition on the frontier is not far re- ' moved from a state of war. Indeed, the prospect of civil war is being seriously discussed in Belfast and utse- * where in the north. Tbe dispatches sent by Belfast cor- ' respondents of the London newspuiiers ' represent the temper of the Ulster- ' men as being sucb that, unless tbe 1 kidnaped Unionists are speedily released, there will certainly follow an 1 explosion which may lead to war. " Concerning the supposed plot ngalnst ' tbe provisional government, nothing is ' know here beyond what Mr. Collins * revealed In bis cable correspondence ' with Thomas Lyons, secretary of the 1 American Association for Recognition ' of the Irish Republic, and the Dublin correspondents refrain from even spec- ' ulatlng on it.
