Under European Pressure, U. S. May Be Forced to Intervene in Haiti and San Domingo HARRISBURG ttSSSflk TELEGRAPH LXXXIII— No. 173 REPRESENTATIVES OF IRISH PARTIES FAIL TO REACH SOLUTION Meeting Today Was Little More Protracted Than Previous Sessions COMPROMISE IS NOT POSSIBLE Following Adjournment Premier Asquith Was in Confer ence Wjth King By Associated Press London, July 23.—The absence of the hitherto prompt announcement that the "conversations would bo re sumed to-morrow" at the adjournment of to-day's home rule conference at Buckingham Palace was generally ac cepted as an indication that there ef forts to find a Solution had failed. The extreme pessimism and their anticipation of a definite break up of the conference were not justified, how ever, as later in the day an official announcement was made that the con ferees would continue their discus sions to-morrow. The delay had caused a great deal of misgiving. The meeting was a little more pro tracted than the previous ones. It was attended by Premier Asquith and Chancellor of the Exchequer David Lloyd George, representing the gov ernment; Andrew Boar Law and the Marquis of Lansdowne, of the regular conservation opposition; John E. Red mond and John Dillon of the Irish Nationalists, and Sir Edward Carson and Captain James Craig, of the Ulster Unionists. The cruicial question of the area to be excluded from the control of the parliament in Dublin under the Irish home rule measure was the chief sub ject of discussion, it is supposed that it was found impossible by the con ferees to attain an acceptable compro mise on this matter without further consideration. After the adjournment Premier As quith was in audience for ten minutes with King George. John Redmond and John Dillon drove direct from the Palace to Down ing Street where they lunched with Lloyd George. Injured Men Work on Farm in Canal Zone By Associated Press New York, July 23.

With the 400 marines who are to sail from Norfolk, Va., for Guantanamo Satur day, the number of marines now there or on American warships In Haitlen and Dominican waters would be in creased to more than 900.
