NHPANDESAPE
The question of O'Connor's legal
status, if he remains nt liberty, past the
hour set for Ills banging Thursdny, wns
cleared up today by the announcement
of Lloyd Heath, Assistant State's At
torney, who prosecuted O'Connor, thnt
he would appear before Judge Scanlon
Thursday and ask that O'Connor's sen
tence be prolonged. Mr. Heath said
this would be dene nt each term of
.court until O'Connor was captured, ob
viating the necessity of n new trial.
In investigating reports of plans te
assist the escape of O'Connor, jail of
ficials sny they learned thnt en Satur
day night a man drove an automobile
te the side of the jail and paced up
and down the street for three hours.
The most generally accepted theory te
explain O'Connor s possession of the
revolver is that at the last minute lie
obtained it from some ether prisoner In
the "bull pen" who would be less care
fully watched. The prisoners had just
been released from their individual cells
te mingle in the morning exercise period
when the rush for liberty wns started.
The scries of accidents that befell
drivers of automobiles commandeered
by O'Connor in his flight nlse has
helped te conceal his flight, Die police
said. The first car. halted in the rear
of the jail went dead within a block
through ever eagerness of the driver te
obtain speed. The next two crashed
Inte the curb in rounding corners tee
rapidly, and the fourth, containing a
man nnd two women, vanished entirely.
O'Connor's companions left him after
the disaster te the second automobile,
and made their cttape en feet.

nn unyielding nttitude toward Ulster.
It was intimated that, except for a
trifling change, the British Premier had
declined te innkc any concessions, his
nttltudc being, "Thqrc is the treaty
and It stands."
In a statement en the general out
look, Sir James described the situation
as grave, but recommended an attitude
of courage and optimism. He said Ul
ster was determined net te swcive ene
inch from the path she had worked out
and net ,te niter her ideals. He ac
cused Lloyd Geerge of a breach of his
plcdge te Ulbtcr.
Dublin. Dec. 12. (Bv A. P.) The
possibility thnt the Dull Llreann may
net reach n decision en the Angle-Irish
treaty at its meeting here Wednesday
Was suggested in Informal discussions
among Dall members nt the Mansion
Heuse today. Seme Mnn I-cln legisla
tors thought Fonienn de Vnlcra, the.
Sinn Fein President, suiting en the prin
ciple of self-dctcrminntlen, might refer
the question of rntiticatien te tlie ceun
try nt large.
Among these arriving nt the Mansion
Heuse early today were Arthur Grif
fith. Rebert C. Barten and Erskine
Clillders. who noted as tweretnry of the
Sinn Fein delegation during the recent
negotiations In Londen. They were fol
lowed seen afterward by Michael Col Cel
lins. Mr. ile Vnlcra had net arrived
early this afternoon. These who had
nrrived. however, were busily engaged
in serious Informal discussions et tlie
treaty.
It was net known today whether
Wednesday's Dail meeting would be
open te the public. Mere thnn eighty
correspondents from Ireland, England,
America and France have applied for
admission.
'Arthur Griffith nnd Michael Cellins
new have received assurance of support
of eighty members of the Dail. whose
total nicmbcrshln Is 120. It is fnlrlr
'certain that twenty will vote with
Eiimen de Valera for rejection, leaving
' tw -nty doubtful.
The whole force of the Irish Catholic
church 11 w is behind a settlement, nnd
at almost every altar yesterday the
priests gave thanks for the nrn-pect of
pinnaneiit peace. Trinity College nlse
has put itself en record In favor of
lulificatieu.
Cardinal Legue, venerable In ad of tlie
church in Ireland, came out with a pub
lic statement condemning Mr. de Valera
for unfairness In nttniklng the treaty
publicly before tlie meeting of the
Dail. He has called a conference of
Irish archbishops for tomorrow for the
purpose of indorsing ratification of tlie
trenty. Nearly ull the bishops have al
ready expressed publicly their de-ire
for ratification.
It is understood that nil convicted po
litical prisoners will be released from
Hrltish jails witliin the next few ilays.
This is regarded here as an excellent
move, being likely te consolidate- Irish
opinion In favor of ratification of the
treaty.

FACES CLASH OVER
Early Solution of Other Majer
Issues Forecast British

NINE-POWER TREATY
ON FAR EAST FAVORED
i By the Associated Press
I Washington, Dec. 12. Submarines
t premise te present the Arms Conference
with its next big issue.
un nil tne eincr major sue
jects before the Conference tiie delegates;
professed today te see a prospect of
early solution. But the question of
whether submarines arc te be included
In qunntlty In the fleets of the future
Is developing widely divergent opinions.
The problems of nnval ratio, fertifi
catiens in the Pacific, and the naval
helidny, while still open questions, nre
regarded as mere or less bound up te
gether nnd their settlement simulta
neously in the nenr future is said te
have been facilitated by the new agree
ment of the United Stntes, Great Brit
ain, Japan nnd France for preserving
pence in the Pacific. Further advices
from Teklo and further conferences cf
tlie nnval "Big Three' nre In prospect,
but no one nppcars te believe a solution
will be difficult.
Tlie Fur Eastern negotiations ols-e arc
described as proceeding satisfactorily
with a sentiment developing In some
qunrtcrs te mnke the final accomplish
ments of the Conference in thnt direc
tion the basis of u formal nine-Power
treaty instead of merely a "gentle
men's agreement" or joint declaration
of policy.
Centrmcrsy Looms
But the submarine problem, which
involves among ether things a question)
of whether undersea craft nre te be
considered at nil as legitimate instru
ments of warfare, Is said by delegates
te be entirely separate from ull of these.
In the American naval reduction plan
Great Britain and the United States
each would be given a submarine ton
nage of 1)0,000 tens, as compared with
54.00(1 tens for Japan and n quujitKy
yet te be fixed for France and Itnly,
and Great Britain thinks these figures
should be cut in half and a British
spokesman predicted today that the con
flict of views might lead te "consider
able controversy."
The British believe the French and
Italians, and probably the Japanese, are
preparing te .stand together in favor of
a large use of submarines. They de net
I knew as yet exactly bow the United
WA
SUBMARINES
.states will staml en that question, hav
ing officially nothing te guide them
beyond the original proposal, an allot
ment of 1)0.000 tens te the British and
American Governments.
It wus stated today that the British
would net attempt te make any Issue ou
the question if convinced that the ma
jority of tlie Conference wn.s opposed te .
them. But they -aid frankly they In
tended te make a strong effort te pre-cnt
the British viewpoint ns set out by Mr.
Hal four in his speech before tlie "Con
ference, with such additional re-enforcement
of details as te bring support
te their position.
Would Cut Allotment In Hair
While the British concede tlie hope hepe
leness of fcemiiig from the Conference
n declaration looking te the complete
abandonment of tlie submarine, they
will stihe, it wa.s snid, te obtain ac
ceptance of Mr. Balfour's preposition
te cut in half tlie allotment of submarine
tonnage in the American naval program,
a- well as te prevent the construction
of large undersea craft of un offensive
character.
, The Britisli also are hoping that it
may be possible te induce the Confer
ence, acting through their naval ex
perts, te consent te some vnriatien of
the original naval-holiday preposition,
evidently counting en Japanese sup
1 pert of nny plan that would keep at
I least some of the naal construction
works under way.
In tin- Fer Eastern negotiations, tlie
, trend toward u treaty in place of a
' mere international understanding is
-aid te luue -tnrted with the Chinese.
