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.

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.

Under European pressure, the American government's patience prac tically has been exhausted with the various elements in Haiti and San Domingo and was to demand a re storation of peace or threaten armed intervention. The gravity of the situ ation was increased by refusal of the warring factions in Haiti to cease fighting, despite the American gov ernment's warnings, and failure to settle the Dominican revolution by di plomacy.

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.
