HOME RULE COMPROMISE
 HAS BRIGHTER PROSPECTS.
Belief Prevails That Conference Be- tween Leaders of Parties Will Be Resumed

London, April 29.-A compromise on the question of home rule for Ireland seemed today nearer than 1t has ever been before. There existed a strong belief in parliamentary circles that the conferences between the leaders of the two great parties. which had been un- successful in reaching any agreement last autumn. would shortly be re- stunned.
 The house of commons discussed the Ulster crisis again today when 1t wound up the two days debate on Austen Chamberlain's motion for a u- dicial inquiry into the governments plot to crush the Ulster covenants The motion, which was virtually a vote Of censure on the cabinet was event ually rejected by party vote of 344 against 264.
 An atmosphere of great sole1nnity and restraint oyerhung the house throughout the debate. The growing reality which cannot be escaped, if the Irish home rule bill becomes law as it stands at present. seems to have influenced members on both sides of the house, as 1t has the newspapers supporting both parties. During the past week the press of both opinions has become more conciliatory in tone than 1t has been at any previous stage Of the discussion.
 Sir Edward Carson, whose leader ship of the Ulster rebellion makes him the dominating figure on the opposition side of the house, today accepted the overtures made yesterday by Winston Spencer Churchill, first lord of the admiralty, who had invited him to ac- tempt to compromise the home rule question on a federal basis. Sir Ed ward reiterated his detestation of home rule and repeated that if Ulster were excluded from the bill until this par lament shall determine otherwise" ia- stead Of the six years period which Premier Asquith had offered. he would submit the proposal to the people of Ulster.
 Sir Edward, in his reply te Mir Churchli1S' invitation, declared all he wanted for Ulster was such terms as would conserve the dignity of the Ul' ster men and their civil and religious freedom,

Vera Cruz, April 29.-The govern ment of Vera Cruz is to be handed over by the United States navy to Brigadier General Frederick Funston of the American army with formal ceremony at o'clock tomorrow after noon.

 Several American importers are re- ported today to have sought tariff re- bates on American goods, but without success. It is said to have been point ed out to them that any such favor would call forth violent protests from other foreign importers against the discriInina ton.

MILITIA FAIL TO
 DIsLooGE STRIKERS
Forced to Retreat and Leave Body sf
 Dead Officer on the Field.

Walsenberg, Colo, April 2e.-Ons dead and three injured is the known casualty list in six hour battle here today in which less than 100 militia men attempted to dislodge an esti- mated force of 400 strikers entrench- ed in the hills adjacent to the town Firing stopped late today when the troops were withdrawn on orders, local officials state. received by Colonel Yer deckborg from Denver.

Wansenburg, in which the strikers had taken their stand. Lieutenant Scott had been shot a few minutes previously. The firing was heavy when orders were received to withdraw, and Major Les ter's body was left on the field
 A low range of hills north and east of the town was the scene Of todays battle Fighting started when & de- tachment under Lieutenant Scott left the town limits and started to cross over a low rise of ground. Captain Swope and Lieutenant Morrison fol- lowed.
 For two hours the militiarnen sought to diSlodge the strikers without suc- Cess. With Lieutenant Scott in com mand of one detail and Captain Swope leading the second company, they ad- vanced by a series of alternate rushes until Swope's men were stopped by woven wire fence
 Both details were returning the ire of the strikers with vigor when . courier from Colonel VerdeckborE came up with the mtfitta<nen and re- called the troops. The retreat was made under as great difficulties as the advance and it was nearly o'clock before the troops reached town

It was about 5.30 a. m. that the strikers opened their attack in force. With the wo- men and children of the camp bar r1ceded in the mine slope, the guards under the personal direction of Super tendent Nichol. responded spiritedly About 10 o'clock the firing ceased and the camps assailants disappeared as mysteriously as they came. some toward Trinidad and others over the hills in the direction of Berwind and Tabasco According to Superintendent Nfchol three strikers were seen to tumble down the hillside.

 Timothy D. Sullivan, Mr. Thorne said, held some securities of the Bos- ton and Westchester road, and the New Haven traded some of its stock for these. He said he knew of no money being paid out to any politi- clans. He testified that the New Ha- ven paid ss40o.o00 for the two roads and also turned over to the Millbrook company, which was organized by Perry and Thorne as a sort of hold ing concern. the sum of S3.000.000 for other expenses in connection with the transaction. The New Haven, in ad dition to the two roads, took over all the stock of the Millbrook company
 Can you produce any vouchers showing how this $11,400,000 was spent?" the witness was asked.
 No, I don't have to-" retorted the witness.
 Investigation will be continued by the commission.
 One Of the men subpoenaed is James E. Brady, connected with the firm of Manning Maxwell and Moore of New York, who. il is said, have been given railway supply contracts by the New Haven. Mir. Brady is a close friend of Mf. Melleh.
