Republican trader and Colleagues
Profess to Believe Solution
of Crisis Is Xear.
LOKDOX, July 19. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Events which appar
ently had been proceeding smoothly
and with fair rapidity toward a com
mon ground upon .which the. British
government, the Irish republicans
and the Ulsterites could find a basis
for a settlement of the troubles In
Ireland, have fallen Into a lull, and
negotiations, official and private,
have- ceased.
With Sir James Cralgr, the Ulster
premier, again In Belfast, havingr be
fore his departure from London de
livered a .pronouncement which
seemed to spell the end of diiscus
Bions 'between the three parties, the
English were trying- to figure out
what eventually will happen with
respect to Ulster, and more particu
larly with respect to the whole of
Ireland at the next conference be
tween Mr. Lloyd George and Mr. de
Val&ra Thursday.
Craig Sound. Hopeful Note.
Meanwhile General Jan Christian
Smuts, the South African premier,
may proceed to Belfast as inter
mediary and the fact that the Ulster
leader has declared that his services
andi those of the officials under him
"are available at any moment," lead
to a hopeful view that the final word
of the Ulsterites has not been spoken.
Notwithstanding the attitude of
Ulster as expressed by Premier Craig,
the spokesman of the republican
delegates today declared they were
"stili not unhopeful." while another
Sinn Fein representative said:
"It is not a question of Belfast
being subservient to Dublin, or vice
versa, but that both must be sub
servient to Ireland."
I'UtM MinUter Sera K. in fir.
The king, deeply interested in the
outcome of the Irish discussions, was
visited todiay by the marquis of Lon
donderry, Ulster minister of educa
tion, who, it is understood, gave the
king de-tails of the conversations the
marquis had with Premier Lloyd
George yesterday. The continued
presence of one of the Ulster cab
inet in London is considered signif
icant and of good! augury.
Mr. Lloyd George is believed to
have certain propositions to present
to Mr. de Valera at Thursday's meet
ing, which have been approved by
the British cabinet. The republican
leader and his colleagues probably
will return to Dublin on Friday.
ULSTER IIAS XOT WITHDRAWN
Return of Premier and Colleagues
to Belfast Is "ot Rupture.
BELFAST, July 19. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The return to Belfast
of Sir James Craig, the Ulster pre
mier, and the members of his cabinet
from London must not be taken as
a rupture of the negotiations, it was
declared today by Colonel Spender,
secretary of the peace delegation,
on his arrival here. It wao thought
that the delegation would be recalled
to London next week, he decared.
None of the cabinet members would
have anything to say for publication.
Eamonn de Valera was regarded by
the Ulster unionists as a visionary,
and the feeling in unionist circles
here was that no discussion among
all the parties concerned in the Iri6h
settlement will be possible until he
considerably modifies his position.
"When Sir James Craig saw the
republican leader In Dublin before
the recent Irish parliamentary elec
tion, the Ulster premier was declared
in unionist quarters to have heard a
long disquisition on an Irish republic,
and unionists here expressed belief
today that Mr. de Valera had ex
pressed himself similarly In his in
terviews with Premier 'Lloyd George.
The attitude of the Ulster premier
and his colleagues, as expressed by
Sir James in his statement made in
Ixndon last night, in which he de
clared Ulster was determined to main
tain her present status with her own
parliament, was cordially approved
by the Belfast unionists in general.
"There was never any other out
come of the negotiations possible."
r said the Belfast News-Letter, "except
.in the minds of those who would
have sacrificed us on the altar of a
false peace. We shall have nothing
to do with any settlement terms that
infringe upon or diminish the status
of our parliament, and we base that
attitude on the same ground as De
Valera makes his claim to self
determination." On the other hand, the Irish' JCews.
which voices the views of Joseph Dev
lin, nationalist, said:
"If the six specially chosen Ulster
counties are to self-determine them
selves Into ruinous conflict with the
rest of Ireland, why deny the claim
of any county to self-determine itself
out of association with secessionists?
The claim insisted on by Sir James
Craig is on all fours with that put
forward by the soufhern states of the
American republic 80 years ago. That
Is a true and exact parallel. The for
mula that Ireland is like unto the
secessionist states has been aban
doned." $112,512,628 IS SAVED

WASHINGTON, D. C July 19. A
determination to follow a policy of
"absolute frankness" in reorganiza
tion of the shipping board was de
clared at the White House today to
stand behind Chairman Lasker's pro
posal for a $300,000,000 appropriation
for operating expenses of the board.
It was asserted that the adminis
tration had no intention of inheriting
the complicated llabllties of the board
without letting congress and the
American people exactly understand
the situation. Should the experiment
of an efficiently managed board prove
too costly. It was added, it would be
time for the country to consider what
other means mig'fc be adopted to fos
ter an American merchant marine.
Walter D. Meals of Cleveland is un
derstood to be prominently under con
sideration to head the special court
of appeals which is to pass on claims
involved in reorganization of the
shipping board.
Chairman Lasker declared the books
of the shipping board were in a "de
plorable condition," and that they
"could not have been kept in much
different shape had they been kept
with a view to cheating and deceiv
ing congress and the country."
The ships are being operated on a
commission basis under contracts
that cannot be discontinued imme
diately, he said, "and we must grin
and bear that system for some months
to come."
"I have heard of a boat turning
back in mid-sea to take on a cargo on
which the operator made $4000." the
charman remarked, "and the govern
ment lost $8000 and this boat was
half way across the China sea when
they turned her back to get that
cargo at Manila. Anybody can see
that a system where the operator
has nothing at stake, whereby the
government loses and he wins, is a
system that makes for Inefficiency."

AUSTIN, Tex July 19. A resolu
tion proposing investigation of activ
ities of the Ku Klux Klan in Texas is
being prepared .for introduction in
the state legislature, now in special
session. Representative Rountree of

The announcement supplemented a
statement by Mr. Rountree last week

grand Juries, after inquiring into the
alleged secret organization, had
failed to return reports which would
indicate that it existed in Texas. His
resolution, which probably will be
introduced this week, the representa
tive said, will not seek to force the
Ku Klux Klan from the state, but
merely to determine what its mission
is, if it is found to exist.
Representative Rountree said today
he had received a number of anony
mous letters since last week's an
nouncement. One of these condemned
the Ku Klux Klan, while others at
tempted to explain the alleged organ

STEEL TRUST ABSOLVED
LOOKOT7T OF COAJj MINERS I
SOLE ACT OP OPERATORS.
Testimony, at Mingo Investigation
Shows 2 7 Workers Slain
During Labor Riots.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 19. Op
erators in the Mingo. W. Va., coal
fields, in resisting efforts to unionize
their workmen, acted on their own ac
cord and were in no way Influenced
by the United States Steel corpora
tion, Ernest L. Bailey, superintend
ent of the- Portsmouth Solvay Coke
company's mines at Freeburn, Ky.,
today informed the senate investigat
ing committee. He emphatically de
nied, when questioned by Senator
Kenyon, republican, Iowa, that there
was any association between the op
erators and the steel corporation in
policy toward union labor.
Senator Kenyon read a statement
purported to have been issued by W.
Jett Lauck, consulting economist for
the United Mine Workers, in which
it was charged that the steel cor
poration was the "guiding hand" be
hind the effort to crush out "the mine
workers' organisation." The statement-
said the steel corporation,
through its subsidiaries, was the
largest producer of coal in West Vir
ginia, was planning in conjunction
with the Norfolk & Western railroad
to extend its operations in the Mingo
field.
Mines supervised by Mr. Bailey are
across the Tug river from Mingo
county. After Harry Olmsted, rep
resenting operators in the region, had
testified that 27 persons were known
to have been killed during the dis
orders since the middle of May, 1920.
Mr. Bailey described attacks on men
employed at his mines who refused
so strike.
Mr. Bailey testified he had Instruc
tions from his superiors not to em
ploy a member of the United Mine
Workers unless he renounced his al
legiance to the union.
Charges of . union officials that
miners were enslaved and held in
peonage ; were absolutely without
lounaation. Olmstead testified.
Private detectives designated as
deputy sheriffs had been paid by the
operators, he said, "because the coun
ty had insufficient funds."
Senator Sterling, republican. South
Dakota, questioned the propriety of
such procedure. Mr. Olmstead ex
plained that the mine owners, needing
protection, lent the money to the
county for the payment of deputies
with 'an understanding for reimburse-
'ment.

is as nothing when compared to the
trouble Wasco county is having in
finding some place where Frank But
ler, 17-year-old robber, will "stay
put."
Butler was arrested March 13 .with
two companions, after the trio had
held up and robbed the night clerk
of the Glenwood hotel.
Because of his age his case was
tried in the county court, where he
was sentenced to the state reforma
tory. At the county jail he led an at
tempted jail break.
All of the bars but one of his cell
had been sawed through when the
plot was discovered. Later Butler
was sent to the reform school. The
relief of Wasco county authorities was
short-lived, however, for yesterday
Butler was returned to The Dalles.
He had organized 25 boys at the re
form school in a plan for a general
escape in which the guardls were to
have been slugged and possibly
killed. Butler was placed In a cell
in the county jail. What will be done
with him has not been determined.
