TALK WITH MAYOR
It Is Believed Candidacy of Daix

.
Osrar Noll Penrose leader of the
Thirty seventh Ward, and Franklin
came for an hour and a half conference
with Major Moore today In a jubilant
mood It is believed they talked of
Senator Augustus K. Dalx and his candidal-
for City Treasurer, in addition
to other political plnns and mnnoeuvcrs.
The Mor at the conclusion of the
meeting, was nsked whether the Daix
candidacy had been discussed. He asked
to be eTciiMjd from any discussion of
candidates He reiterated, however,
his approval of the candidacy of Edwin
Wolf for City Controller. He de
clined to give a hint as to what Ed
monds and Noll had discussed, but in
tlmnted they had brought cheering
news
Political observers firmly believed
Senator Penrose Bent Mr. Noll to re
assure the Mayor of support .and to
set at rest fcome rather discouraging ru
mors that have been circulated.
It is. in fact, generally believed thnt
Richard Weglein. president of Council
would support the Administration if
the Admlulhtrntion would throw its
strength to Dalx. Putting two and two
together, it looks to the wiseacres as
thouirh the Mayor is now assured of the
support of the nrown-Weglein-Penme
faction, but will loi-e tne aid ot tne
Cunuingham-Penrose group.

Such a course would unquestionably

Mr. Penrose.
As for Clerk of Courts Cunningham,
t is noteworthy that he hns "sung

He has made no peifervld declara

TRUCE WON'T BE BROKEN
By tho Associated Press
fiondon, Aug. So. The reply of the
Irish Republican Cabinet to Prime
Minister Lloyd Oeorge's letter of Au
gust 13, In which Lloyd George denied
Ireland's right to secession and de
clined to refer the question of the re
lations between Southern nnd Northern
Ireland to foreign arbitration, was re
ceived at No. 10 Downing Street, the
Prime Minister's official residence, nt 1
o'clock this afternoon.
The reply wns presented by Com
mandant Robert Barton, of the Irish
Republican army. He was accompanied
by Art O'Brien, president of the Gaelic
League In London, and by Commandant
Joseph McGrath. (It was Commandant
Barton who on August 11 brought the
reply of Eamon de Valcrn to tlie Prime
Minister's original offer of dominion
stntus to Ireland.)
It is learned that official circles here
do not regard today's communication as
terminating the negotiations, although
the contents of tho reply are being with
hold pending a Cabinet conference nnd
nn agreement between the Irish nnd
British on n Joint communique to be
issued to the press.

quarters that the reply would not ac

Prime Minister Lloyd George, but
would not utterly reject tliem. It was
Intimated that the note to tlie British
Government would develop arguments
relative to the situation which would
probably result in new negotiations,
and there seemed to be a disposition to

Mrs. Hoover's blue eyes flashed uud
her bobbed head shook with indignation.
"That's a He. The check he passed
nn the hotel last night was bad, Mrs.
Hoover continued after Magistrate
O'Brien had ordered Hoover to be si
lent. "I found a telegram which was
signed bj a Mr. Garfield from the Do
minion Bank of Canada, stating JS00
had been forwarded to iny husband.
That was false and my husband used
that telegram to get the money from
the room clerk nt the hotel."
During his wife's testimony Hoover
swung a gold pencil suspended from his
platinum watch chain.
"Now, sir, I have something to saj."
Hoover suid in addressing the Magis
trate. "My wife has known what rny busi
ness is for some time. No doubt I
would have continued in business had
wn uot had an altercation in the rail
road station Inst night about going to
Washington. She can never complain
about my tieatment of her. Sho hns
had everything I could afford to buy
her. I even gave her a diamond ting."
"Let me see it," Magistrate O'Brien
demanded.
Mrs. Hoover rni'ed her finger and
displayed a solitaire.
"Where did this come from?" the
Magistrate nsked,
"My lmsbnud bought that for me
from a Market street Jeweler last week.
He only paid two dollars for it. hut 1

Both I7nner and his wife were held
