By lite Associated Press
rietfant. July 10. Ttie return to P,cl
test of Sir James Cralr. the Ulster
Premier, and his Cabinet, who have
bwn with him In London In connection
with the Irish peace .move, must not
bo. taken as a rupture of the nrROtln
tlons, It was declared today by Colonel
Spender, secretary of the dclcgntlon, on
its arrival here.
It Is thought, indeed, that the dele
gation will be recalled to Iondon next
week. None of the Cabinet member
apeak for publlratlon.
Eamon dc Valera Is regarded hj the
Ulster Unlonltfl ns a vlslnnnry. The
ftellng In Unionist circles here Is that
no discussions among nil the parties
concerned in the Irish settlement will
be possible until he considerably modi
fies his position.
Unionists Indorse Cral
When Sir James Craig mr the Ho
pnblic.ttl leader in Dublin before the
recent Irish parliamentary -lfftioti-,
the Ulster Premier 1 u'ciarcd in
Unionist quarters to have heard n Inn?
disquisition on nti Irl1t republic.
Unionists here expned belief tod ly
that Dp Voleru hod epned lihnself
similarly in his Interviews with I.'oyd
George.
The attitude of the Cstcr Premier
nnd hln collcnipes. ns expressed b Sir
James in his et.itcincnt mndo in Lou
don last nlsht. In whieh In- declared
Ulster was determined U. mnintnln her
present Mutus. with htr own I'nrll.i
mrnt. is cordially approved by the Ilcl
fnst Unionist.
"There wns never any other outcome
of the negotiations possible, " says the
Belfast News Letter, "except in the
minds of tho.- who would have sacri
ficed us on the altnr of a false pence.
We shall have nothing to do with nnj
settlement terms that infrinso upon or
diminish the otnttis of oui picrliuii'cnt.
and we base that attitude on the same
ground as I)e Valera makes Ills claim in
Blf determination."
Uke Claims of Confederacy
On the other hand, the Irih News,
which voices the views of .lo-eph Dev
lin. Nationalist, cays:
"If the ix specially chosn l"l-ter
counties are to self-determine them
selves Into ruinous conflict with the rct
of Ireland, why deny the claim of any
county to self-determine itself out of
aociation with secessionists?
"The claim lii'Ntcd on by Sir lames
Craig is on all fours with that put
forward by the Southern Stntcs of the
American Republic .'ixty jenrs nun.
That Is a true anil exact parallel. The
formula that Ireland is like unto the
secessionist States has been aban
doned," London. July 10. (Ry A. P.iIrish
negotiations nppear to have reached a
deadlock in so far as they concern n
tripartite conference between Dnvld
Lloyd (icorge, th IJrltWi Prime Min
ister. Eamon de Valera. Irish Republi
can leoder, and Sir James Craig, Pre
mier of Clster.
This developed late last night when
8lr James, ns he departed for Belfast,
issued n statement on the subject of
"self-determlnatlou." which is inter
preted to mean that he will not com
Sromise on any matters pertaining to
Inter's political rights.
While the statement has made a deep
impression upon political circles. In
many quarters It is not ncceptrd as
final, and hope is expressed thnt the
negotiations for such a conference are
not yet ended.
Won't Dletale to South Erin
The Clster Premier's statement said
that he was "returning home well sat
isfied with the efforts being made to
ward pence, "and that De Vnlera "has
broken his silence and cleared the
ground b his statement to the press
that he proposes to found his claim on
recognition of the right of self-determination."
He asserts that the people of North
ern Ireland have "determined" their
own Parliament "which was opened by
His Gracious Majesty in person," and
that De Valera and his associates, by
standing ns candidates for the Northern
Parliament and submitting their policy
of "no partition," have admitted the
right of self-determination on the part
of Ulster.
"This was the onlv Issue placed be
fore the electorate," he adds, "and
'no partition' was rejected by the
largest majority which so far as I on)
ware ever has been returned in a gen
eral election In any part of the world."
He declares that it now remains for
De Valera and the Hritlsh people to
agree upon the administration of the
area outside of Ulster.
The people of Northern Ireland, lie
continues, do not In any waj claim
to "determine" the terms of settlement
which Grc.it Mritnin and Southern Ire
land may mnke nud adds a ibj of hop
by concluding ;
"When this is accomplished I can
promise cordial co-operation on equal
terms with Southern Ireland In any
matter affecting our common Interests.
"Having reached the present stage,
I go back to Ireland to carry on the
practical work of the government. 1
feel that our Interests are ablt repre
sented In the Imperial Parliament, anil,
of course, i ur services are available at
ny moment."
It is from these concluding para
graphs that the Times gleans ome hope,
but otherwise it refers to the statement
as "rigid and un (elding."
In other quarters the statement is
referred to as u disagreeable shock
which brings matters to a critical stage
and causes a very uunromlslng nnd un
pleasant position. It is pointed nut
that De Vnlcro Is Inflexible in his de
mand that Ulster's autonomy must be
derived from nn nil-Irish Parliament
sitting at Dublin, while the Clster lead
ers are equally determined that the
Ulster Parliament be subordinate only
to Great Itrltain.
Several of this morning's newspapers
assert that If this attitude Is persisted
in, all negotiations must break dnun.
while others advance the belief that If
the present conference fails Pni'llameut
mny be dissolved and the Issue sub
mitted to the Ilrltish people in n gen
eral election.
There are rumors Hint a I nblnet dis

WALSH WILL URGE
COMPROMISE
American Who Advised De Va

Attend Conference
U. S. FAVORS CONCILIATION
Ity CLINTON W. GIL11KKT
Man Correspondent nrenlna- Pnhlle Ijstctr
Copyright, tttt, by rubUc Ltilotr Co.
Washington, July 10. Krnnk P.
Walsh, formerly of the War Labor
Hoard, who has been oD Valern's chief
dlser in this count, will sail for
F.ngland Friday to tnke part In the
conferences there upon the Irish ques
tion. Mr. Walsh will probably be an
Influence for compromise. Ills presence
In Kngl.ind will probably counteract the
Influence of the extremists: like Judge
Cohalan, who are Insisting that De
Valera should accept nothing short of
the complete independence of Ireland,
American opinion is a most Important,
factor In the Irish conference. Neither
Lloyd George nor De Vnlera wishes to
moke th mistake of taClng an extreme
position whieh will alienate American
Miprort. And Mr. Walsh will probably
play on important part in advising De
Vnlera juet how far he can go without
losing the sympathy which the Irish
cnue has in the United Stntes.
What Is making for compromise of
tl Is dispute Is on th one side the de
sire of the Kritlsh ('r.wniinent to re
move the great political ob-tacle to close
co-operation between this country ntsl
England and the knowledge upon the
part of the Irish leaders that they have
thus far failed to carry public opinion
In this country to the support of the
complete Independence of Ireland.
Seek to Dodgo Blame
If the conferences between Lloyd
George and De Vnlera fnll to produce
an agreement, each leader will 'desire
to place the blame of failure upon the
other so ns to affect American opinion
favorably to himself nr.d In tit" mo
nomer of the conference. With this
end in view Mr. Walsh will have a
voice.
The Irish cause made progress in thli
country so long as the Irish-Americans
were united, lint with the split which
enme when De Valera. who was here,
insisted upon directing the Irish move
ment here as well us in Ireland, it be
gan to lose ground. The older leaders
of the Irish In America, of whom Jus
I'ce Cnhnlun was the chief, split away
from De Valera's leadership, and Mr.
Walh became the chief adviser of the
Irish here.
1 he disunion nf the ti-uli ! ,!.
ened the propaganda and some of the
vAirnuc incuiocis or le n ern s ren
resentative In this country after his
return to Ireland alienated public opin
ion, the culininnting mistake being the
association of the Irish with the Ger
mans in the protest ngoinst the French
occupation of certain Ithlne regions,
held in Madison Square Garden, New
York, last spring.
Must He Conciliatory
If !) Valera should not show a
spirit of reasonable compromise in the
present conferences there Is little chnnce
that the Irish propaganda will again
make headway in America. This fact
Is so plain thnt It cannot have escaped
the Irish leader's attention. It is prob
nbly ns an adviser upon the state of
American opinion thnt he wants Mr.
Walsh In London.
If. on the other hand. Lloyd George
should fnll to do his utmost to sntisfv
the reasonable demands of the Irish,
the relations between this country and
Great Britain will be once morc'com
plicated. The Administration will hesi
tate In Its plans for co-operation with
the British. Even the coming confer
ence upon the Far Hast and upon dis
armament will be unfavorably affe'ted.
The problem would be much simpli
fied if the issue were one dliectlv lc
tueen the Sinn Fein leader and the
British Pieinier. Both are under a cer
tain compulsion to show reasonable
ners in the conference. Tho third ele
ment in the situation is under no such
compulsion. If the north of Ireland
leadtrs make peace impossible there is
no effective way In which American
public opinion can hold them respon
sible. They conduct no lmortnnt
propaganda In this country. No rela
tions between them nnd the United
States are at stake.
In the event of Ulster proving recal
citrnnt. Lloyd George can throw up his
hands nnd say thnt he cannot control
It. And De Vnlera will assert that he
went as far as he could In making con
cessions In order to secure the adhesion
of Ulster and the battle will once more
begin for American support.
If De Valern makes no mistakes, ob
stinacy on the pnrt of Ulster will oper
ate rather against the ICngllsh (intern
ment than against him in American
eyes. Ulster's political relations are
with the Tory section of Lloyd George's
support and some presumption will cxUt
that the Lloyd George coalition has
some Influence over the North Ire
Innders. Ft cry one here In Washington hopes
to M'p the present conference succeed.
The De Valera followers are mostly
tired of the struggle ami hope fur a
compromise. Tho politicians, especially
the Republicans, sen only difficulties iii
Its continuance, since etents are forc
ing this country Into closer relations
with the British Government which have
their dangers so long us the Irish ques
tion Is unsettled. Rut no one here pre
tends to guess what UNter will do.

IM SENATE REPORTi
F. D. Roosevelt Also Condemned
for Methods Used in New
port Scandal Probe
CHARGE UNFAIR, SAYS REPLY
IJy the Associated Press
Washington. July 10. Former Sec
retary Daniels and Franklin I). Roose
velt, former Assistant Secretary of the
Nnty, are denounced for the methods
used in Investigating the wartime scan
dal among enlisted men nt the Newport
training stntlon. in the majority report
of a Senate subcommittee, made public
totia.t . '
The charges made by clergymen of
Newport, It. I., nnd the Providence
Journal, the report says, "have been
protrd to the satisfaction nf the com
mittee" nnd both the clergt and the
Journal, says the report, "deserve the
thanks of the people at large."
At the same time today. Mr. Roose
velt issued a statement declaring thnt
Scnntors Ball and Keyes. the two
Republicans who constitute the majority
of the investigatliiR lommlttec. hnd
Issued their findings without giving him
a hearing after promis.iig to do so.
which Mr. Roosevelt In his statement
contended "shows n premeditated and
unfnlr purpose of seeking what they
mistakenly believe to be a partisan
political odvantnge."
To File Minority Report
Senator King, the Democratic mem
ber of the Investigating committee, will
file a minority report later.
The crux of the mnjoritj report
charges is that, with the knowledge of
Daniels and Roosevelt, enlisted men of
the navy were Improperly used as par
ticipants in Immoral practice" for th"
purpose of securing evidence on which
to dismiss offenders from the navt .
Roosevelt, under whose office the in
vestigating wua conducted, is held by
the majority to be "morally rsponsible'"
for the orders. The findings of n naval
court-martial which Investigated the
scandal nre Introduced in the record for
the first time. It held the action of
Roosevelt "unfortunate nnd 111 ad
vised." Secretary Daniels disapproved
the pott Ion of the findings which con
demned the method of investigation, and
on that point the committee report to
day snys :
"The committee agrees thnt rranUltn
D Roosevelt's action was not only un
fortunate and 111 advised.' but most iep
rehenslble, and Mr. Daniels' disapproval
of this opinion of the court is to he
severely condemned."
Roosevelt, in his statement, said that
nt no time was the work of Investigating
supervised b him personally and thnt
when in September. IMS), he and the
acting chief of the Bureau of Naviga
tion were informed that members of lie
investigating squad "had used high y
improper nnd revolting methods in get
ting evidence." immediate orders were
sent out "that day to stop it.
The iilsiuuat.ons that I must have
known, thnt I supervised the operotioiis.
that I was morally responsible, sain
Mr. Roosevelt's statement. are no
where sunportid by the evidence direct
ly or indirectly." ,ii,.
On that point, however, the majority
findings of the Investigating ommittcc
hold that Mr Roosevelt was present at
conferences which determined the njfth
ods of the investigating and that It is
bet ond the comprehension of the com
mi'ttee how the methods to be used could
have been entirely eliminated and for
gotten at the consciences. If Mr.
Roosevelt did not inform himself of the
methods used, the majority report as,
he "wns most derelict in his duty.
Not "Officially" Informed
It is probably true." says the ma
ioritt report, "ns contended bt both
Secretart Daniels nnd .Wsistant Sec
retarv Roosevelt, that they were not
olllciollt' informed regarding acts of
operators or detectives until later.
n!ldin, that "all through the records
before this committee strenuous nnd
strained efforts were made by natal offi
cers to differentiate between official
knowledge and knowledge as the ordi
nary layman has it."

"would he benefited." the report says,
if the name nf Chief Machinist Mate
Krvln Arnold, Hudson's assistant in the
investigation, were "stricken from the
roster of the navy." The report notes
thnt no commissioned officer of the reg
ular naval establishment was involved.
Roosnvelt in his statement on the
mnjoritj report summed up his reply
this way :
"Throughout their report I acccuse
them of deliberate falsification of evi
dence, nf perversion of facts, of mis
statements of the record, and of a de

GAS BOMBS TO AID
New Crook-Catching Method to Be
Tried Out Today
Fifty husky police recruits w III

this afternoon down at Cnmionuali

It will be a real charge, and the
bombs will be real bombs, charged with
real "lacliryniator gns." which the
Germans invented nnd now the police
nre going to use.
This will be but one feature of n
game of mimic warfaro, with sternei
weapons than make-believe fighting
usually employs, to be held today at the
city's horse training station in South
Philadelphia.
Another will he n renl bandit pur

W. F. Ballingor Outlines Plan
to Relieve Traffic Congestion
at Lions' Club Luncheon
NAVY YARD TO TABOR
A 200 -foot boulevard on F.lghth
street, running from the Navy Yard to
Tabor, to relieve congested traffic con
ditions was advocated today by Walter
F. Rallluger, nn nrchltect. In address
ing a luncheon of the Lions' Club at
the Hotel Adelphla today.
The boulevard, as planned bv Mr.
Unlllnger. would include aw elevated
railway to tnke the place of the pro
posed Rrond street subway. This boule
vard, said Mr. P.allincer. would hook
up with the Delaware River Bridge and
afford nn outlet for much of the traffic
over the proposed span.
A four-track elevated railway Is pro
vided In the plan, with spn'c for sur
face enrs, pedestrians and traffic. One
feature pointed out by Mr. Ilallingei'
would tend to do ntvny with automobile
collisions. It consisted of lnnes for
fast nnd slow-moving traffic
The speaker also suggested that the
bed of the elevated railroad could be
come a roof,- fifty feet wide and ten I
miles long, to he utilized tor housing
n number of much -needed public facil
ities, such as bathhouses, police stations
nnd fire stations. In addition to these,
said Mr. Rallincer. playgrounds, com-
miiitlty building, public libraries and
assembly halls could be provided m this
space. Ills plan nlso included gnrages
to relieve the parkins situation and
"prndueer-to-coiiMiiurr" markets, to
be placed every half mile or so.

gave thr name of "Dr. Corbin," nnd
who snhl he was n Philadelphia drug
gist, escaped from the police on the
morning of July 1.", while he was being
taken to the house sergeant's office for
registration and commitment to jail.
The announcement was ninde in Judge
lngersoll's court this morning nnd
conned a sensation.
Corbin, with four other men. was
arrested on July Ifi. charged with vio
lation of the Van Ness liquor law. Of
ficers who made the arrest say the men
were occupying nn automobile truck
which contained three barrels of whisky
nnd three jugs of five gallons each filled
with various kinds of liquor.
Corbin, "it the time of his escape,
was in custody of Policemen Cnstor nnd
Jackson, and was descending from the
detective bureau to the house sergeant's
ntlice. How ho made Ills successful
break for liberty remains a myttery
still unsolved by the staff of detectites
who. when informed of the escaij, im
mediately begnn n thorough search.
"All we know," said Captain aliru
sliaw. "is that one man was nhead of
biin and the other behind. When the
trio readied the lamUiii; nt the bottom
of the stairwoy Corbin said he hnd for
gotten something and wanted to see the

following him. When thet reached the
top, where th" entrance into the de

liquor, were fined $.100. The Court
ordered the tale of the automobile to

Girl Sobs Out Story
of Halted Romance
Continues! from Pure One
Teresa poured out the story of her shat

"We conic to Phlladelphn Saturday,"
she explained, "to get married. And
we did think we were married, too o,"
there was bitter weeping here. "A
fellow took our R.I and told us he would
take us to n minister and he did. And
I was married with this ring" the
little girl displayed a small gold ring
with a ruby in it. "We were married,
onlt we didn't have a certificate."
The heroine of the shattered romance
was exceptionally pietty nnd ond ex
cited much attention as she told her
story. Her skin, ns pmk nnd white
ns a baby's, was guiltless of make-up,
unci her hair, real true gold, sweetly
framed her face under a large white

"We went to thnt place on Right

the right way now.
Met FrI Last August
"I met Fred last August. He moved
into our neighborhood. The way we
got acquainted was one night his mother
went out and left some meat cooking
nn the fire. I was sitting on the stoop
nnd ln ran over and asked me what
would he do if the meat started to burn
while his1 mother was out. I said to
turn out the fire and wait for his mother
to come home to cool: jt. Then nfter
that we became friends nnd went to
gether as much as we could.
"My people wouldn't let me go out
much, nnd l had to take care or the

they persisted in shrieking ,nnd crying
out nt every opportunity. Locksmiths
worked nil night to restore the cell sys
tem, nnd It was expected that within n
short time each man would be back in
his "Old Home."
Fifty State policemen from the
(ircenslmrg nnd Rutlcr barracks were
expected to reach the prison tonight or
tomorrow to relieve the p'ollcemen, but
prison officials said they did not' antici
pate any further trouble from the
prisoners.
Lnrge forces of workmen were todny
cleaning up the broken bricks nnd dinner
ware used In yesterdny's battle, while
other workmen were restoring the elec
tric nnd plnmbing systems damaged by
the convicts when they tore nway light
ing fixtures nnd plpea In their senrch
for weapons to use against the guards.
It will be days, however, before all
repairs hnve been completed.
Formnl Investigation of the riot will
he commenced by the prison bonrd this
afternoon and, according to John A.
Fnirman, the president, the "ring
lenders" of tho tire nud riot will be
punished. '
Of the nine convicts shot during tho
struggle, three nre not expected to re
cover. The others injured included three
citt police officials nnd a district lire
thief, who were injured In the rioting
or burned- in fighting the fire.
Riot and Fire Start Together
The riot nnd fire broke out simul
taneously and it is believed were the
result of a well -planned plot to empty
the great institution of the 1135
criminals which it now holds. Prison
authorities said that hnd it not been
for the alertness of the guards In fall
ing to be drntvn aside from the point of
fire bv the rioters the plan might hnve
.succeeded.
Immediately nfter the noon ir.enl hnd
been served to the first sqund of i"00
prisoners nnd the second sqund of 03.1
were entering the dining-room, two of
the prisoners started n fight. Imme
diately dishes, chairs, tables and every
other' nrticle nt bund tvns hurled
through the nlr and nil the convicts
took part in the mnd scene which fol
lowed. There wns n sudden rush for the
guards In an ovldent intent to over
power them und regain freedom, but
the gunrds were prepared nnd retreated
to tho outer wnll. holding the prisoners
at bay with rifles. It wns then that
the fire was discovered, stnrtlng nt the
same time in the weaving shop, the
broom shop, the shoe shop, tho chapel
and. kitchen.
The buildings being frame, and dry
ns tinder, burned fiercely; too fiercely in
fact for the prisoners, who became
pnnic-strlcken nnd apparently dared at
the suddenness of the whole wild scene.
The nlr wns filled with cries and curses.
Men and women stampeded like cattle,
tearing nt each other nnd fighting like
maniacs for any chance that offered
even a slight hope of safety from tho
raging Inferno nnd the restricting wnlls
of the prison.
May Run Woman
for Hadleis Job
Continual from rnrr One
without a smile. Senntor Vare sold
that, as a matter of fact, he had asked
his friends to join him In calling on Mr.
Lane "out of n feeling of good will nnd
respect for the old gentleman."
However, it Is a fact that news of
the woman cnndldnte for Controller be
came known following this conclave.
Woman Not Yet Selected
Organization lenders have not yet se
lected the woman. Their job is now :
"Cherchez In femme." In their search
they will confer with Mrn. Dnrelny II.
Worburtnn, vice chairman of the Re
publican State Committee; Mrs. (Icorge
Iornce I.orimcr. nrcsident of the newlv
organized Republican Woman's Club
of Pennsylvania, and Mrs. R. Dobson
Altemus, chnlrmnri of the Rcpublicun
Women's Committee of Philadelphia.
Inquiry among women for suggestions
us to a candidate brought these nnmes
forward :
Mis. Thomas Robins, nsdstant secre
tary of the Republican State Com
mittee; Mrs. Sninuel It. Scott, 'if the
Voters' Leaguo ; Sirs. Waller S.
Thomson, former chairman of tho Re
publican Women of Philadelphia; Miss
Jean Crawford u Ropublicr.il leader in
Fox Chase and secretary of the Phila
delphia League of Women Volerx ;
Mrs. Wilmer ICrusen, whoso husband
wob Director of Public Health and
ChiiritlM under the Smith Administra
tion; Miss Margaret Mngulre, principal
of th Mcs'all School nnd nn ncttL
Republican worker, and Mrs, Whiter
Hancock
It appeared nlso that the possibilitt
cf a tt oi. ..in candidate frr nn important
office receiving organized support wns
something of a pleasant Mirprise to the
women. Rut they quickly milled ami
clecluiecl that there was no reason why
h womnn should not hate the office.
They pointed out that women hate
nlrrndv achieved signal successes in the
fielclH of business and of financing, and
have readily fallen into sneii work ns
thnt iter which ihe City Controller Ins
chirge. Many nf the women who nre
iirilve In oolltlcs. for exaiiitde, have
cuined considerable knowledge of
liunncing tiecaiiFO ot tnc necessity or
looking nfter the finniice.s m large
estates.
Familiar With Household Ifwlgrti
"Why," remnrked one woman, "the
City Controller is nothing nunc than
a keener of the budget for tho house
I old of the city. Women have all
l.lnds of experlf nee in keeping household
budgets."
Another intriguing angle of the situ
ation is that Mayor Moore, it is saf"
to assume, will not lose any sleep titer
the possibility of Mr. Dudley being
displaced. The Mayor ond Mr. Iladley
I live never hnd much nf n it entente
cordial. Perhaps the ooiub'nc had this
in mind, the idea of subtly plenslhg the
cilv Vdiiiinistintinii.
In fact, ono nf the Administration
leaders intimated, when he heaiil nf Ihe
ntest development, that the Mriyor
would be glad to suggest a candidate.
Tills led to the suggestion that Mayor
Mooro tvnu'il be gratified over the slat
ing nf Mm. Murdoch Kendrlck. Mrs.
Kcndrlck's husband was campaign
manager for Mr. Moore in the Mayor-
ftHy campaign nnd h n close friend of
tho Mayor. . , .
In shorl, the combine counts on mak
ing several hits by slating n woman
for Controller. They expect to knock
out n home run so far us the women
axe concerned, uhd to line out neat
singles nnd two-baggers to far us the
independents, the Mayor' and the otcrs
League arc concerned.
Already the womcu are. beginning to
say: "It's a grent game."
Are the women joyfully seizing on
the Idea of n womnn for City Con
troller? They'll tell the world I Among
tho lenders, plans nre under way for
colled special meetings of the several
women's organizations and club's for
the purpose of putting candidates In
the field. ...
According to orgnnlzatlon lenders, it
docs not make any difference whether
the candidate is single or mnrrlcd. 'J he
only stipulation Is that "she must be
high class."
"Thnt makes it easy." said one of
the women lenders.' "The supply of
inulerlnl is therefore unlimited."
