('. England and Ireland awoke this morning 10 icarn una an unexpected agreement had been reached early this morning between the English and Irish conferees, after the negotiations of yesterday were considered collapsed. The Dail Hirean and the Hritish Parliament are ex pected to ratify the agreement, which makes Ireland a free state. With a definite promise from the Sinn Fein of alle giance to the Empire, the agreement is reported as satis factory to the king, because it assures Ireland's contin ued association with the Empire. The consent of Ulster is not necessary to make the agreement effective. She may withdraw in a month, re verting to her present status. A boundary line dividing the north and south and factional elements is to be fixed by a commission.

Tnl conferenco was for tho purpoie of arriving at a definite program to prevent, If possible, tho proposed raise. President Oordon Invited Mayor Wiley, Councilman W O. Smith and J. C. Iloyle, manager of the California Oregon Power company, and Arthur It, Wilson, president of tho Klamath Insurance Agents' As sociation, to tho conference. The object of the conferenco this afternoon Is t0 lay thn foundation for plans that may be submitted to the rating bureau, which would pre vent an Immediate Increase and to map out a system which would ac complish this purpose. President Oordon stated that tho contemplated Increase In rates In this city would be In tho neighbor hood of at least IC0.U00 With the preparations which the city was milking for Increased fire protection the question of adequutu water sup ply would have to be met, even If thu water company had to Install larger mains and the people submit to a slight raise In water rates. Another fact which would bear investigation, Oordon said, was the exact segregation of tho fire losses which tho Insuraace companies claimed they have endured hero. The losse which Verb "In the city proper were the only ones, ho thought, UiBt should be considered, not Klamath county losses, or In stitution which were not In tho tlty limits. A city might have five lean yoara In fire losses, then ex perience heavy loss by accidents. but tho last year should not be made tho basis of fixing the rates when tho general average was good. Thesu points will bo threshed out this afternoon, and soma definite Pinn prouaoiy advanced to soivo thu question. "Onco wo start paying that ad-. . ( . . . . i dltlonal sixty thousand dollars in crease," said Mr. Gordon, "It might bu year before wo would bo ro lluved of It. It wilt bo n vorltablo old man of tbo sea. Tbut Is Klam ath Kails' situation. A slight ralso In water rates', which aro low now," will bu better than n long time, high and expensive flru Insurance rate." At thu meetlug this afternoon thu California Oregon Power com pany was requested to submit an estimate us to the cost ami terms of cnlargliiR the water mains In accordance with tho recent sugges tions of tbo stato flru marshal. Manager iloyle, on behalf ot tho company, stated Hint ho would have tbo matter taken up and submit thu figures at tho earliest moment.
