Dublin. Aug. 120. Guerilla warfare
of Irish Irregularis nnd of the criminal
element posing nn part of the Repub

te a state of terror.
The Dublin newspapers today nre
filled with incidents indicating the per
sistence of sporadic attacks In Dublin
streets nnd elsewhere nnd photographs
showing cases of pillage and the burn
ing of bulldlnss throughout the coun
try which the newspapers describe ns
"wanton."
An automobile cnrrvlng nn officer of
tiie National army was bombed en the
chief Dublin thoreughfaie lat night,
but no one was wounded. A private

three men In civilian clothes ns he was
traversing Parneli Square.
Many telephone nnd telegraph wires
have been cat. In remote country dis
tricts there nre but few soldiers or
relice nnd armed hands are robbing,
looting nnd committing ether excesses.
Heme Irishmen maintain that these
acts are net te hp confounded with the
tactics of the Republican nrmy which,
they say, often receives; the blame for
the misdeed? of criminal organizations.
Sorrowing throngs today passed the
bier of SHchael Cellins, the slain rhlcf

In stnte in the historic City Hall.
Slenmv'hiln plans am going forward

These solemn preparations recall a
conversation of Cellins with the writer,

down the aisles of the Great Dublin
Pre-Cathedral. Reverently Cellins
spoke of thp rami bv whose side he
had fought for Irish freedom, and rev

streets of the capital te his unknown
destiny.
In the same building where Griffith

Te the Consumers of Bituminous Ceal:
Considerable confusion exists as te tne effect of the "Cleveland Agreement" en the price and supply of bitu
minous coal, both in the present and in the near future.
The undersigned companies, who with ethers were instrumental in breaking the deadlock existing until August
leth, and in securing an immediate resumption of mining at many union collieries, wish te inform their clients of the
purpose and probable effect of the Cleveland settlement. '
FIRST. Abandonment of the "Central Competitive Field" as a method of
wage negotiations.
Fer 25 years a basic watce scale has been negotiated in four states
of the Middle West, effective for two year periods. These wape
scales were invariably forced en Central Pennsylvrnin and the
mining districts in 24 States without regard te the competitive con
ditions surrounding them, and caused frequent and serious trouble.
Our employees have been drawn into two national strikes within
three years without presenting te us a single grievance or demand.
This persistent cause of strikes has new been removed.
SECOND. Immediate resumption of work en wagei and condition! of
March, 1922.
President Harding, at his Washington Conference, proposed a
return te the "status quo" pending a thorough investigation of all
phases of the industry, with arbitration of wages and ether disputes.
This fixed the terms of any previsional wage scale.
THIRD. Rcnnwnl until April lut, 1923, of former wage contracts.
Wages payable until April 1st, 1923, are net subject te revision
or arbitration. Sufficient time does net remain te conduct the
necessary hearings and make any complicated revisions or adjust
ments in the previsional wage rates, which are effective for seven
months.
FOURTH. Previsions for impnrtinl Commission of Inquiry te make an
exhaustive study of whole industry, with recommendations.
Beth the United Mine Workers and the operators signing the Clevc
land Agreement have agreed te submit every fact and figure of their
industrial activities te a public committee approved or appointed
by the President of the United Stntcs.
Te assure the neutrality and the prestige of this Commission it has
been agreed that a joint national committee of miners and oper
ators will endeavor te select a panel which commands mutual and
public respect. Speaking plainly, both the operators and mine
workers want practical men of natiennl prominence and highest
character and nre fearful of a commission that can even be
imagined te have a political or partisan complexion and appointed
en the eve of an election. On the ether hand they recognize that
the public and the Administration will probably distrust a com
mission named by the operators and miners. Therefore, they have
made the President's approval a condition of the naming of a
commission, and have furthermore asked him te appoint it in his
discretion in case they cannot agree en a panel.
The personnel of this Commission is of extreme importance.
FIFTH. Collective Bargaining restored.
The deck having been cleared of obsolete and dangerous practices
the U. M. W. of A. and the operators agree te assemble en October
2nd, and te attempt by collective bargaining te establish a new and
equitable system )f negotiating wage-agreements.
SIXTH. Future Wage-Agreemcnts.
Beginning January 3rd it is arranged that such scale committees,
as may be designated at the convention of January 2nd, will imme
diately undertake the negetiatica of wage-agreements te replace
these expiring March 31st.
These scale committees will have the recommendation of the Com
mission of Inquiry as their guide.
SEVENTH. Protection against another strike in April.
The public's greatest protection against another strike in the spring
lies in full publicity ns te the causes of national strikes and full
knowledge of the conditions existing in all bituminous fields.
These facts should be developed and published in full by the
Commission of Inquiry in January, 1023.
The recommendations of the Commission should be published at the
same time.
If another disastrous tie-up of the nation's fuel supply occurs, en
account of a failure of either party te comply reasonably with the
recommendations of the Commission, the responsibility can be easily
and promptly fixed. The Administration can then act te protect
the consumer backed by the irresistible force of public opinion,
based en knowledge of the facts.
The above we believe are the principles upon which the agreement was based, and upon which we believe a
mere stable and peaceful condition in the coal industry can be reached.
