America's "unknown soldier" who will find an honored resting place in the national cemetery at Ar lington, Va., was chosen her this morning. The ceremony of select ing the casket took place in a lit tle improvised chapel in the city ball and in keeping with a request from the United States govern ment, was very simple and brief.

Four caskets bad been placed in the chapel ny a contin gent brought here from Coblenz. Every one had been asked to leave the chapel before Sergeant Young er entered. He walked slowly around the four caskets three times, then stopped and placed the roses on the backet facing the en trance to the chamber. He then turned, facing the entrance, sa luted and reported to the Ameri can officers that he had made his selection. While the ceremony was going on. a French military hand played the dead march from "Saul." The casket was then removed to another room and prepared for its long trip to America. General Du bois, commanding the French Sixth army corps; Major General Harry L. Rogers, quartermaster of the American army on the Khlne, and Colonel Harry F. Kethers of the American graves registration service were present. The only words spoken at the ceremony were by General Du bois, who said "The French army feels deeply honored to pay a sim ple and loving tribute to the Amer ican unknown soldier." Iater the casket was placed In the rotunda of the city hall, which wu decorated with American flowers and flags. The casket was draped In an American flag, the only flowers on It being the little bouquet placed there by Sergeant Younger. ' Mediation of Old Mine Troubles Is Plan of Murray Washington, Oct. 24.

SINN FEIN NOTE HELD UNTIMELY De Valera's Message To Pope Construed As Challenge by Lloyd George London, Oct. 24. Prime Min ister Lloyd-George answering a question in the house of commons today regarding Eamonn DeVa lera's message to Pope Benedict, said the publication of Mr. DeVa lera's message, especially in the middle of the peace negotiations, constitued a grave challenge. London, Oct. 24. The negotia tions between the British govern ment and Sinn Fein Ireland repre sentatives were resumed today but there was evident a feeling that the situation was such as to give ground for grav concern among those hopeful for an adjustment of the Irish controversy. Michael Collins, minister of fi nance In the Dail Eireann govern ment, who went to Dublin Sunday, returned here last night. It was understood that Prime Minister Lloyd-George had laid before the Irish delegates certain questions affecting Irish allegiance to thi British crown, and there was a be lief that Mr. Collins had gone to Dublin to talk the situation over with his colleagues, it was sup posed he brought a communica tion from Eamonn DeValcra and It was felt that upon this answe and the attitude taken by the Dail Eireann delegates would depend the continuance of the negotia tions. Everywhere, except in irrecon cilable quarters. It was argued that with good will on each side, a way out of the difficulty created by Mr. DeValera's message to Pope Bonedict could be found. At Sinn Fein headquarters here the attitude of hopefulness which had prevailed gave way to pessim ism after the return of Michael Collins from Dublin. The Sinn Fein, It was declared, will not accept allegiance to the king, at least until the bargain 1b finally made. The Sinn Fein, spokesmen for It indicated, was prepared to meet Mr. Lloyd-George's demand for a declaration of allegiance with a detailed argument. "The position of the government on the question Involved In that telegram has been made abundant ly clear," the premier declared "We do not propose to recede from It, and the conference cannot pro ceed on any other basts."
