HUNDREDS KILtED d3 m CONFLICT r Fein Activities Ronderod Age-Old Situation Acute h' MILLIONS IN PROPERTY LOST , Tho "Irrepressible conflict" between Ireland Mid Ensland has been the theme of historian, of political economist, of philosopher and bard through hundred " of year. "Risings" that marked the Mtter days of the eighteenth century aI tho first half of the nineteenth, the "Jwian" insurrections, the Home Rule agitations, the Land League movement and scores of similar activities on the part of n large section of the Irish people; tho "coercion" measure! that bto, from time to time, been applied by sundry British Governments to crush rebellion hnvo been or frequent recur rcace nnd the fruitful theme of discus slon and of variant legislation. In recent years, more particularly wnce the conclusion of tho world Wnr, the Irish situation has been especially acute, made so by tho activities of the Sinn Fein, a movement begun by irre concllablcs who rejected any other set tlement than complete independence for Ireland, nnd since 1010 accounts of hostilities of varied sort have filled the columns of the newspapers from day to day. For a considerable time largo bodies of British troops and police have been quartered in turbulent parts of the island. According to an official British report 261 persons bad been killed and 410 wounded in Ireland in 1020. This re port did not include eighty-two civilians Blain during the rioting in Ulster from June to September. 1020. The official report divided the casual tios as follown: Policemen killed, 105; wounded, 223; soldiers killed, 53; wounded, 118; civilians kilted. 42; wounded, 103. The report added that all the civilians had been killed by Sinn Felncrs. As regards property damage and raids, the report gives these figures: Court bouses destroyed, OS ; Royal Irish Constabulary barracks destroyed, C30; damaged, 100; raids on malls, DOS; raids on coast guard stations and light houses, 40; raids for arms, 2S01 ; raids on revenue offlcerH. 110. A report issued last March by Sir Hamar Greenwood, Chief Secretary for Ireland, said forty-nine persons had been killed while trying to escape from custody, 2070 were interned and 053 wero in jail. The report of the commission of the Committee of One Hundred which wrnt to Ireland to make an investigation declared hundreds of persons had been killed by Crown forces and immense property damage done, but no specific figures on either score were given. Press dispatches from Ireland since January 1 indicate that hundreds more have been killed and wounded in fight ing, although no official estimates are obtainable from either side. The prop erty damage since the active uprising started Is estimated far up in the millions, the Cork Are of December 12, 1020, nlone having caused destruction conservatively estimated at $15,000,000. Irish Peace Looms; Virtual Truce On Continued from Paw One Minister's proposed London conference. The letter of De Valera to Lloyd George rends : "Sir The desire you express on the part of the British Government to end the centuries of conflict between the people of these two islands and to es tablish relations of neighborly harmonv ia the genuine desire of the people of Ireland. "I have consulted with my colleagues and secured the views of representa tives of the minority of our nation In regard to the invitation you have sent me. In reply I desire to say I am "ready to meet and discuss with you on what baslB such a conference as that proposed can reasonably hope to achieve the object desired. "I nm, sir, faithfully yours, "EAMON DE VALERA." Developments leading to the truce were divided between London and Dub lin. In Dublin De Valera and his Na tionalist associates renewed their con ference with the Southern Unionist. Earl Mldlcton read a letter from Lloyd George to the effect that hostilities must cease if negotiations looking to peace were to succeed. In the letter Mr. Lloyd George Bald : "The Government fully realizes it would be impossible to conduct nego tiations with any hope of achieving satisfactory results if there is booldshcd and violence in Ireland. It would dis turb the atmosphere and make the attainment of peace difficult. "As soon as we hear Mr. de Valera Is prepared to enter into conference with the British Government and to give instructions to those under his confrol to cease from all acts of vio lence we will give instructions to the troops and police to suspend active op erations against those who arc engaged la this unfortunate conflict." IClng Leading Figure The King of England has been n leading figure in tho developments up to the present, while General Smuts. the South African Premier, has acted as the pivot on which the peace move ment has turned. There is hope lu London, and in Dublin, too, that peace tnnst come out of the forces which are now engaged in seeking n settlement. The principal events of yesterday oc curred not in London, but in Dublin, and the most striking was the sensa tional appearance of General Sir Nevil Macready, at the conference of Eamon De Vnlera nnd lending Southern Union ists, after his aide-de-camp had been seat In advance, presumably to ascer tain whether his participation would bo agreeable. Opinion still inclines to the idea that General Smuta. owing to the important pnrt he has taken in the preliminary Begotlotions, will be the first chairman tl the London conference, even if Mr. Lloyd George presides during the later stages, tis would be almost Inevitable it constitutional questions were uuder discussion. Holyhead, Wales, July 0. (By P.) Earl Mldleton, one of the So Irish Unionist leaders who partlelnn A. outh nnrtlrlnnto.l ia yeaieruuy b conierence at Dublin, landed here this morning on his way to London. He expressed belief that the terms of Eamon de Vnlera's letter to Profiler Lloyd George accepting the M A 1 l . - -T i sefgMUon or n conierence would be nc- , eeptab.e to the Prime Minister. Earl '' Mldleton added that ho and his col V l'Mfuefl had achieved tholr object, and ' tut further progress toward peace in f , Ireland was a question to be discussed t r hjs Mr. Lloyd George and Mr, de .LJfalera. 7 , "Sentiment in Ireland," he said In .

The reduction wns brought about through the decreased Issue of Federal Reserve bnnk notes. to the Murder Gang," the Belfast News Letter captions Its editorial on tho truce, saying there are complications which are disquieting "to nil loyal sub jects of the King and repulsive to nil honorable men." The first Implication, says the News Letter, is that "tho outrages the rebels arc porpetrntlng shall cease Monday noon, but meantime thoy nre free to commit as many as they can." The second implication, declares this news paper, is that active rebels nre not murderers, but patriotic belligerents. The third Implication, it declares, Is that the claim of the Sinn Felncm that they arc honorable belligerents seems to be admitted. Tho Northern Whig In its comment on tho now developments says: "Whatever tho Government may promise or protest, we doubt if thoy will be uble entirely to remove the fear that their first descent into the volley of humiliation will not only fall to bring peace to Ireland, but may uitimnteiy be the means of causing many faithful British subjects to pass through the val ley of the shadow of death."

BRITISH PRESS SEES PEACE IN IRELAND London. .Tnlv 0. (By A. P.) The result of tho conference held in Dublin estcrdny at which Mr. do Valera dccld oA tn moot Mr T.lnvil Georsa was an nounced so late last evening that several of this morning's newspapers did not comment on the new development, liie news everywhere was displayed as being of great importance, however, and tho tew editorials wnicn nppeareu weicomcu, with one exception, tho irlRti truce witn the greatest cordiality, nnd the hope was expressed that It might lead to per manent peace in Erin. The London Times declnred thnt. once active hostilities ceased in Ireland, there was every reason to believe the whole atmosphere of that country would change, "and that the gravest menace to a settlement by negotiation will dis appear." It observed that Mr. de Valcra's let ter to the Prime Minister, in which he necented the nlan of n conference, was guarded and noncommittal, adding: "The lact remains, however, inut air. de Valera has chosen the path of ne gotiation in preference to that of con tinued warfare." It declared this gave substantial grounds for hope, cspeclajly in view of arrangements made for a truce on Monday. Tho newspaper noted thnt Mr. Lloyd George "seems clearly to have under stood the danger of continued warfare" and concluded by expressing belief that "the end of this secular trouble, ruin ous to Ireland and humiliating to this country, is within measurable dis tance." Tho conclusion of a truce in Ireland, tho Chronicle asserted, lifted the neo tlatlons to a new plane of hopefulnvbH and reality, the newspaper remarking upon tho extraordinary fact that Sir Nevll Macready, military commander in Ireland, won able to drive through the streets of Dublin in full uniform and unattended, but without molestutlon, saying: "Here is peace, not simply In pros pect, but in foretaste." Tho Morning Post, a Conservative organ, complained of the "humiliation rebels have mulcted upon England ' and said the British Government was "ne gotiating terms at the point of a loaded pistol." IRISHMEN HERE DIFFER ON TRUCE There is difference of onlnlon nmonir Irishmen here regarding resulta which mny be achieved at tho coming con ference botween Premier Lloyd George nnd Eamon De Vnlera, president of the Irish Republic, townrd settling the con flict between England nnd Ireland. Michael Francis Dovle. who was counsel for Eamon De Vnlcrn and who obtained his release from British prisons in 1017 through the nld of the State Department nnd Sir Cecil Spring Rice, British Ambassador to the United States, said : "Ihe American people certainly Wei- come tho proposed conference between Lloyd George nnd De Valera. IVhm differences ran be frnnkly discussed in a manly fashion with a desire on both sides to have them ended, It Is most en couraging. "The Urltlsh Government will find the Irish people not only brave, but ecnerous. and their lenders cannbln mon of broad vision and statesmanlike quali ties, aii mat is necuea to have the conference a success is for Lloyd George to state thnt ho Is now willing to carry out the principles which ho enunciated bo frequently during the world Wnr. "Tho settlement In order to ho n final one must be a Just one The Irish people should be given the right to make their own laws and choose their own ouicinis nnd determine how they Bhnll be taxed and how they shall spend their own money raised by taxation. It Is sincerely hoped that these matters can bo satisfactorily settled. "Une thing is sure, and thnt is that whatever the Irish people agree to do through their leaders will be fully sup ported by the millions of that race in this country." Luke Dillon, a member of tho Clan-na-Gael, who for years hau taken a prominent pnrt in movements looking toward freedom of Ireland, did not express much enthusiasm over the com ing meeting. When seen at his home, r4;J0 Cath arine street, today he said: "I be lieve that Lloyd George Is trying to put the Irish people in a position where they will have, to yield to his demands or submit to rurtner massacre I nm convinced that It is simply a strategic move to get the uppor hnnd nnd is not inspired from n British viewpoint with any intent to help the Irish people.
