' I Miss Perkins has taken wno is Irene, me Cabinet Has Trouble Working Out Financial End of Negotiations, but Finally Succeeds. LONDON', July 20. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The British cabinet eat for two hours and a half this evening considering the IriBh plans, after which Premier Lloyd George went to Buckingham palace and laid before the king proposals for sub mission to Eamonn de Valera. the Irish republican leader, at tomor row's conference. The prime minister presided at the cabinet council held in the house of commons and outlined his new offer to Ireland, which was described as being drawn on generous lines. The financial arrangements in the new offer had given considerable trouble to the miisters. it was under stood, but were agreed to. It also was understood that probably, with modi fication, the entire cabinet would assent to the proposals. whether Mr. Llovd George has suc- ceded in overcoming the reluctance of Sir James Craig, the Ulster pre- "roler. to Join in a tripartite confer ence, was not known, but an an nouncement that Sir James is com ing to London again, probably next week, was considered a favorable omen, and in any case no hint of a breakdown in the negot.ations is apparent. These, however, may be protracted. General Jan Christian Smuts pre mier of South Africa, was holding himself In readiness to go to Ireland again, if needed. Mr. De Valera gave . reception tonight which was at tended by members and executives of the various Irish organizations In vJreat Britain. k Pe Valera to Rturn Home. I The meeting between Mr. De Valera nd Premier Lloyd George tomorrow probably will be their last before the return of the south Ireland delegates to Dublin. Following their return to Ireland, a meeting of the Irish re publican parliament in 1 likelihood will be convened to give the republi can leader an opportunity to report and take fresh counsel on the new complexions which the Downing etreet panleys may have placed upon Ihe old questions, and to formulate a policy respecting such Issues as may 'nave originated during these talks. It was problematical whether Mr. Ie Valera then would go to Belfast for a meeting with Sir James Craig, the Ulster premier; whether he could r..niv what he has termed his "long range bombardment," with Mr. Lloyd George, with the one in Dublin and the -tber in London, or wneiner southern Irish leaders would signify the belief that the continuation of the parley would be unlikely to produce the desired results. Two-Nation Idea Opposed. The last contingency, however, still was considered at Irish head quarters as the least probable of the three alternatives. One point upon which Mr. De Valera will be urged by his colleagues to make representa tions to Mr. Lloyd George before the return of the South Ireland delegation will be what the republican leaders' advisers regard as unfavorable back ground created by the British pre mier's maintenance of the "two-nation idea." by meeting Mr. De Valera and Sir James Craig separately. "Some members of our party see in this a desire on the part of the premier to hold before the world the familiar picture of two separate en tities within Ireland, which contra dicts the virtual essence of our case." raid a man who enjoys the confidence of tha southern 'delegation. "In view of our refusal to sit at the conference table with Mr. Lloyd George and the Ulsterites." he con tinued, "it would -seem that our ob jections on this point were unjustifi able, but what we desire to have made clear is that conversations such aa have occurred here do not imply any recognition on our part of the Ulster lies' equality." ralo: Statement "Inspired." In Irish quarters hre there Is some question in regard to the authorship of the statement given out by Sir James Craig on his de parture for Belfast Monday evening, 1 i w-hleh he oeciarea mat tne urmsn government must 'reach its own .greement with Mr. de Valera and that Ulster was determined to main ta'n its present status with its own parliament. These quarters point out that this was not an Interview but a statement, which the members of the De Valera party assert Sir James had in his pocket when he left Downing street, one of them quoting Mr. Lloyd George's secretary a j authority for this assertion. "Sir James Craig left No. 10 downing; a few minutes after 7 o'clock that night; he entrained one Jioue and 45 minutes later for Bel fast and gave out the statement Just before the train started." said one of Mr. de Valera's colleagues. "An examination sihows the care with which it was composed. It has too much to say about Lloyd George's baby, the Belfast parliament, to be accepted as without inspiration from'T l quarter which it is not difficult to identify. . "It also Is marked by 'vaaueness and it pledge Ulster to nothing. The olive branch in the last sentence, promising co-opcjatlon. we have seen before. Its composition is not unlike that of many pronouncements issued from London In the past, but there is nowhere to be found an argument in similar vein from Craig's pen." .Meet lac In Belfaat Forrraul, The probability of a meeting In Bel fast .between Mr. De Valera and Sir James was foreshadowed in some po litical quarters and several newspa pers this morning. General Smuts, who re-entered the negotiations yesterdiry, doubtless was largely responsible for this and simi lar -optimistic speculation which has survived under great difficulties, eiru-e Monday, when the Ulster pre mier departed suddenly for Belfast after making a forceful statement on the subject of self-determination as it applied to U'ster. This seemed for a time to end all bore for an amiable meeting between the two Irish leaders, but the moder ating influence of General Smuts, cou ple with Belfast dispatches to tbs effn't that Sir J a nu n did not regard the peace parleys as interrupted, have gone a long way toward re-establishing confidence. Mr. De Valera was reported willing to go to Belfatrt and meet Sir James after he has discussed with his Dublin follower certain proposals which it is understood Premier Lloyd Georg will 'submit to him Thursday, bright and only shining star in e musical piece of that name. said she'd like to make the entire Interview about our climate and the green things growing on our bills and in our valleys. "To my mind, it's Just heavenly," she said, basking her slim young gray-clad body luxuriantly in the sunshine flooding the veranda at tbe roruana notei. "I just love the sun shine when it shines on both side of the fence at once.' We are going to be here for one week, and I plan to stay outdoors in this exhilarating air all I can. I notice that, in com mon with other cities, Portland has its share of women who wear -fairs on warm days. I wonder if they rknow how tunny they look. I saw one at lunch today in a sheer or gandie frock and a floppy garden hat and encircling her neck was a hot squirrel fur. Dictation Is Resented. "Save for the matter of foolish furs in summer time, I think women are dressing more sensibly than ever in history. But. mind you, women are wearing sensible things because they prefer to wear them and not from any suggestion for restricted legis lation. 1 fancy (hat I'd immediately wear high heels constantly if some old pettifogging league of notions told me I must not. I see that the Massachusetts Osteopathic society has come out strong against lolly pops. "Today's paper carries an account of a Chicago woman, a Miss Dagmar Perkins, graduate of Bryn Mawr, who is going to make all America talk properly. She says it is to be her life's work. Personally I think Chicago is an excellent place in which to begin her missionary work." smiled Miss Winter, "but I think also that 1 DETECTIVE METHOD ROUSES -SENATOR in a lot of territory. She says she is greatly irked when she hears New York folk say 'orl' for 'oil' and "idear' for "idea." 't think it's funnier," says ' Miss i Winter, "to hear folk who never were nearer New York than Chicago say ing. 'idear, and the woman who never was further south than Kansas City drawling her speech or omitting her final r's. If Miss Perkins would con fine her activities toward a weeding out-of affectations in speech and leave alone the natural oddities of vernacu lar' that belong and are native to certain localities I'm sure her work would be more widely appreciated." Miss Winter thinks we should all mind our own business. "Live and let live." she says, "and be liberal in our judgments. "I try to stay so busy that I haven't time to hear gossip. I am absolutely happy when I'm on, the stage, I learn something new about my work every day of my life. I stand in the wings when I'm not in my dressing room and learn from watching the others. I learn, and then I reject as not good or accept as good whatever I see. Outdoor Life Enjoyed. "i'm an omnivorous reader, but not for fiction. I read essays, impres sions, research articles, constructive and instructive things that build and strengthen me mentally. The out doors and the Golden Rule are my religion, and I believe firmly in the gospel of keeping busy. If, as in my case, the work is pleasant, so much the better, for the happiness and suc cess are more assured and arrive more quickly, but even if I didn't like my work I'd keep busy at something. Nothing is truer than that Satin finds mischief for idle hands and idle minds." So saith Miss Dale Winter. Sleuthing on Miners', Activi-1 ties Denounced. COERCION MS RECALLED BCDY IS HELD RUSSELL'S COROXER'S JURY DECLARES LABORER MURDER VICTIM. Many Witnesses Heard Charred Remnants Identified by Some as Dr. Brumfield's. (Contlnqed From first Pag..j for a number of years. The last time he saw Russell, he said, he was wear ing overalls and a vest and a light colored hat. The hat, which was picked up near the scene of the wreck, was identified as the one Rus sell was wearing on Sunday. A report from James Hunter, Port land fingerprint expert, was given the jury by M. E. Ritter, coroner. Mr. Hunter stated that the finger prints were entirely unsatisfactory. The print taken from the Russell cabin was too old, and in spite of the best efforts to bring out the markings nothing could be learned which would assist in the case. The inquest ' opened this morning witn two groups attracting much at tention in the courtroom. Women Often In Tears. Seated at one side of the room was Mrs. Fred Smith of Willis Creek, a sister of Dennis Russell, surrounded by Ed and J. T. Russell, brothers, and a number of the friends of the family. Across the courtroom, also within the rail, sat Mrs. Brumfield heavily veiled, with a trained nurse, relatives and friends of the family. Both Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Brumfield were frequently in tears. Coroner Ritter made a statement to'the jury reporting the finding of the body be neath the burning car. He described 'its position and the conaitions sur rounding the wreck. "The decapitated body was about three feet from the overturned car," he Informed the Jury, "and when I first saw it it was badly charred. As near as I could tell the body itself was not in the flames but was burned by the intense heat from the car. Early the next morning i wen1: bnck to the scene of the wreck and there found a silver watch which has since been found to be the property of Den nis Russell. I found a notebook and in it was the name of Dennis Russell, together with his description, written out on his identification card. There was also a letter written by Denr.is Russell." Jury Sees Articles. Many other articles were, intro duced as evidence and were used later in the inquest. Coroner Ritter pre sented each article to the jury for examination and told where each was found, some of them being identified later as the property of Dr. Brum field, while others were found to be the property of Russell. A large cut in the hat was not there at that time. Mr. Clayton said. Mr. Clayton viewed the body at the morgue and stated that he was sure it was Russell s. Ivan Calhoun, whom Dr. Brumfield has been putting through dental col lege, stated that he was positive the body is that of the doctor. He said his identification was based princi pally on a corn on the doctor's left foot. He had seen him put a plaster on the corn previously, he said, and frequently heard him complain of it. "Dr. Brumfield advanced the $300 or $400 for my education," Calhoun testified, "and I have been working on his ranch during the summer to pay him back. Recently, for the pro tection of himself and family, he had my life insured for $1000 so that in event of any accident to me would recover what had been expended On my education." Xo Worrylnir oired. Mr. Calhoun stated that tha doctor was apparently rational and showed no unusual worry. His hair, Calhoun stated, was beginning to turn quite gray. He was shown the pieces of scalp and said they compared favor ably with the hair of Dr. Brumfield. Dr. George E. Houck, who per formed the post mortem examination with tbe assistance of Dr.. E. B. Stewart, who was1 next on the -etand, and stated that the body when examined was in a bad state of de composition. Two bullet holes were found in the back, he said, one of the bullets breaking the back. It was evident, he said, that the shots were fired after the body was on the ground and after circulation had been stopped, as there was no internal bleeding. The shot broke out three verte brae, he said, and traveled along the backbone for a short distance before entering the chest cavity. The wound would not have caused instantaneous death, ha said, but the victim would have died from the effects within i short time. Opinions Are Divide. He stated that be examined th body carefully but could find nothing on which to base an identification. The finger and toe nails, he said, were well kept and clean. The stomach contained partly digested portions of bread and meat. He gave a complete report on the measurement of bis brother's body as well as he knew them. Ray Bucll and Bert Willard, local barbers, claimed the hair to be that of Russell. Mrs. Patrick, a sister of Dr. Brum field; A. C. Spencer, a nephew, of Dr. Brumfield; Dr. F. W. Haynes, a den tist, each stated that the body was that of Dr. Brumfield. according to their belief. J. T. Russell, a brother of Dennis Russell; J. T. Fry. J. E. Rose and W. M. Moore, decUrtd the body to be that of Russeli. Several others were called but added nothing new. The case was then turned over to the jury for a ver dict.
