THE IRISH BILL TURNED DOWN Not a Voice Raised In Its
 Behalf
A Harmonious Convention Unlike Any Other. Ever Held On the Old Sod.

Dublin, May 2E-The largest. most representative and harmonious con- vention ever assembled in Ireland. to- day repudiated the plan for a limited Irish council. which was all the Iib- eral government had to offer in full filment of it's campaign promises. This action killed the hope of any home rule legislation by the present parliament, and created a serious split in the governments forces which may have far-reaching results.
 The temperament of the convention was plain from the beginning. No one had a word to offer in behalf of the bill. Home rule or nothing was the unanimous sentiment. and the resolu- ton rejecting the measure proposed by John F. Redmond commanded ev- cry vote. Irish parlamentarians have been deluged with resolutions from town councils and all sorts of off ciaI and unofficial bodies since they arrived in Dublin. all denouncing the bill. The country spoke in an unmis- takable voice and the Irish members of parliament cheerfully acquiesced in its will.
 Three thousand delegates came to the convention and soon after the doors of the Mansion House opened it was impossible to get into the build ing. The gathering was quieter than most Irish political conventions. Ii lacked the spirit of the old home rule gatherings when Davitt. Dillon. Healy and other fiery orators had the cen ter of the stage. The speeches were temperate and there was little denun- ciat!on of the government The key note of the speeches and resolutions was that the bill was an insult to Ireland.
 Richard Croker was cheered at the evening session when the chairman announced that he had contributed $500 ro the Irish parliamentary funds Subsequently resolutions were adopted calling on the govement to fulfill the pledges of legislation for the relief of ev.cted tenants as well as for uni versity and primary education.

LIFE LONG IMPRISONMENT
 FOR LOUIS VICTOR fYT|NGE
If the Doom of the Jury Pronounced Yes-
 terday is Carried Out
The Judgment of the Court is Delayed for Two Weeks to Give Time for Preparation for Review.

When Louis V. Eytinge heard the verdict of the jury yesterday. finding him guilty of murder in the first de- gree fixing his punishment at life time in the penitentiary, he appeared about as much depressed as a wrestler who had lost the first of a long series of bouts. confident that his strength would serve him in the end.
 The jury reached a verdict at four o'clock yesterday morning The bailiff in attendance was instructed to notify the sheriff who telephoned Judge Kent. Instructions were received for the jury to remain together and pre- sent the verdict al the opening of court in the morning
 The court room was filled. for the word had spread that a verdict had been found. The prisoner sat by his attorneys cool and we'll balanced, ap- parently less interested in the finding than many other persons in the court room. When the verdict was read he turned to his attorney. Judge Baker. with a smile indicating that the docu- ment had not been without at least slight interest for him.
 Tho preliminary motions for a re- view Of the proceedings were made by Judge Baker. He desired that time might he given before passing sen tence for the making up of a trans cTipt Of the reporters notes in order that he might ascertain if they con tained any errors. The court accord ingly postponed the judgment until June f
 What the next move Of the defense will be has not been indicated The first will probably be a motion to set aside the verdict. If that should be denied it may be followed by a motion for a new trial. That failing. the ap- peal would follow.
 The verdict was not reached with out serious consideration. Just what took place in. the jury room has not been made known. Members of the jury relate varying accounts of the progress of the deliberations. It was stated by one that on the first ballot there were nine votes for murder in the first degree with the death penal ty. and three votes for acquittaL An other juryman said that on this ballot there was one vote for acquittal and two for murder in the second degree. At any rate. after that the votes changed until on one ballot there were eleven for murder in the first degree without a definite understanding as to the penalty and one vote for acquit- tai At one time. nine members fav- ored the death penalty. while three opposed il and here sentiment began to crystallize- Five jurors were fin ally lined up in favor of any verdict which did not involve capital punish ment and three of them announced that they would hang the jury before they would hang Eytinge

THE ScHMITz TRIAL.
The Motion For Change a Vs~vs
 Denied

san Francisco. May 21.-Unless tn. present intentions of the prosecution are changed. an elisor will not have part in the selection of the jury to try Schmitz on the five charges of ex- torting money from the French res- taurants- This determination was en- pressed in a ruling by Judge Dunne today when he discharged from ser vice all the talesmen remaining from the late Ruef venires and gave into the hands of Sheriff O'NeaI the sum moning of a new venire of fifty. re- turnaole tomorrow
 Whether it is the intention of the prosecution to ask the court to order Schmitz into custody during the pend ing trial is not known. Heney stat ed to the court that there is no pres ent intention but it may be done later.
 Judge Dunne today denied the mo-, tion of the defense for the substitution of trial judge. which motion was supported by affidavits. charging Judge Dunne with bias and prejudice against Schmitz and that Rudolph Spreckels and those associated with him as financial guarantOrs. of brih- ery-graft investigation. are carrying out conspiracy to dethrone the pres ent municipal administration in order themselves to assJyne the government and secure valuable railway and water franchises.
 In contravention of the charges. the prosecution filed counter affidavits de- nying ulterior motives. It is expected that the impanelling of the jury will begin tomorrow.

 BOISE CASE A Jury will Be Secured
 This Week
The Main Witness, Orchard to Be on the stand by the Middle of Next Week.

Boise. May 21.-It was predicted to- day that the first witness to testify in the Steunenberg murder case will take the stand one week hence There are still eight unexpended peremptory challenges. There is an additional va cancy created by the excuse for illness of Juror Cole and under the ruling of Judge Wood the entire jury is still open to further examination. The ses- sion scheduled for Thursday will be shortened by the time necessary to hear the excuses of special veniremen directly they are assembled. No doubt is expressed about the completion of the jury by the adjournment on Sat urday afternoon.
 Those who reduce the proposition to mathematical calculation based on the experience of the trial to date. pre- dict that the jury will be finally sworn in on Monday next. and that the open ing statement will be made either on Monday next. or Tuesday morning. and that the first real testimony will be taken on Tuesday
 II has not been decided whether James H. Hawley or Senator Borah will make the opening statement for the prosecution. They said today they had not considered the question but would take it up later in the week The prosecution continues to file the names of all witnesses 10 he used in the four cases pending. They now number nearly 200. Less than one third of them will be called in the Haywood case.
 Orchard. the principal witness for the week. will probably be on the stand for a full week. His examina- tion in chief Is expected to occupy from three to four days and his cross examination nearly as long. It is be- lieved that he will be called about one week from Thursday. assuming that the jury will be sworn in on Monday
 The great battle of the trial will come with the introduction of Orchard in court. There is expected to be a fight against his admission at every important stage and that his testi- mony will be submitted to the strong est cross examination that the com bined ingenuity and cleyerness of the defense can devise. Attorney Rich ardson will conduct the cross exami- =ation of orchard.

Every one has seen that the shrewd investors have reaped a rich harvest on Valley lands during the past year. School lands are leased under author ity of an Act of Congress. There will be an act introduced at next session of Congress. to pass title up to lease holders on such school lands in the Territory as may be within Reservoir districts. This will make them worth as much as patented land in the same vicinity as no doubt such an act will pass.

his custom, he spent the morning at
his ONCE. with the exception OF an
hour, when he attended n meeting OF
the Naval Relief Association, OF which
he is president. Eumer6ug officers OF
tho navy and army and other friends
called on him at his Office and later
at his home. Among the admlrars
callers to-day were a number who at
tended the birthday dinner last week.
During their conversation they recalled
a very happy toast which the Presi-
dent proposed when they drank the
health OF the admiral. It was as fol-
lows:
ITO the man who has done more for
and reflected greater glory on America
than any other man now living
/ The toast met with hearty response
from those surrounding the admirats
table.
Admira, Dewey is president of the
General Board of the navy. When he
reached his Office to-day an immense
floral piece Of poinzettas was presented
to him Uy Its members and by the Off

At the meeting of the Naval Relief

canter containing old Madeira wine OF
the vintage OF 1917.
The decanter was formerly the prop

PRAISES ENGLISH SCHOOLS
y,3-hitclnw Reid Points Out Points OF
Superiority.


SYRACUSE. y. y, December 90
Whitelaw Reid. ambassador to Eng
land. made an address to the New YORK
state Teachers Association In conVen-
ton here to-day on some Points OF
difference Between the Education Sys-
TENS OF the Two Great English. Speak.
ing Countries.
The ambassador sketched the early
history OF English schools, and in COM
mertine on private school teachers In
one part Of London at the present time
told how they are unqualified for the
work.
"And yst I cannot help feeling" said
he. that on the general subject we
might profitably take a hint from the
old country. Whatever else we may
say of the, English schools they Go
turn out tAell behaved, orderly boys
and girls: r.sspectful TO those set over
them, grounded In the morals OF Chris
tian civiliza ton, with an instinct:ve
sense of obedience to law and be-
b coming regard for the authorities that
represent II. Would we be any worse
OH II we had more Of these qualities
here?
'.If English schools. according to our
IDEAS go TOO tar in teaching creeds
may VIC not be going too far the other
way in some parts OF the country IN
giving too little space to teaching nm
sectarian religion and morals, to en-
forcing respect for authority. and to
training the habits Of mind that Sc
cure unh..sitatins obedience to law and
6 to its otficers?"
