UNITED PRESS LEASED Yrpr.l

London, March 16.--Irish home rule
was up in the house Of commons again
today. Both floor and galleries were
packed.
Premier Asquith spoke. The admin
istration, he said, had offered all in the
way of concessions that it meant to Of
fer. His words were mild, but they con
firmed what First Lord of the Admi-
rally Winston Churchill said in speech
last week--that the anti-home rulers
would have to take the compromise he
proposed or get nothing.
If the plan for county local option on
home rule, with elections every six
years, were satisfactory, the premier
explained that the bin would be amend
ed accordingly with reference to finance
and administration-if it were rejected
it would be simply waste Of time to
consider these matters.
Finally he put the question directly to
the opposition-would it or would it
not accept his offerR
No reply was made to Asquith s
question.

TWO MEN BACK AGAIN.
Joe Day Assesses State That Much for
Bringing Men From Chicago and
ST. Louis.

The appropriation for the arrest an I
return to this state Of fugitives from
justice, is about exhausted, though the
time which it was calculated to cover
has 10 months to run yet. The total
amount appropriated was $500, and Of
this there has been expended $S,014,4S.
OF this amount Multnomah is charged
with using $5,6S9.99. Of this the largest
item is that of Joe Day, who drew
down $S9s.46 which was the cost Of
returning Lee Haul from st. Louis and
George Lewis, alias en- Klein from
Chicago. Won Klein is the man who
was charged with getting away with
jewelry and property from women, and
whose trial has attracted considerable
attention recently.
The other counties in the state spent
only $2,324.49 for this purpose, II
there are any more fugitives to be re-
turned it will be up to the emergency
board to provide .he means, for the
fund now has less than $500 remaining,
or about enough to pay the expense Of

Washington, March 16.-Ambassador
Walter H. Page, Americas diplomatic
representative in London, had simply
been misunderstood was the opinion ex-
pressed today by President Wilson in
discussing with callers the ambassa-
dor S recent speech in which he referred
to the canal tolls question and the
Monroe doctrine.
The synopsis Of the speech, as it ap,
peared in the United States, the presi-
dent explained, was full Of misquota-
tions, due both to omissions and add.
itions by the correspondents who re.
ported it,
For instance, the executive referred
to the passage in which Page was quot
ed as saying that the president recon-
mended repeal of American shipping 8
exemption from canal tolls "not merely
to please England In the speech
itself, said the president, the word
"merely" was omitted, SO that what
the speech really asserted was that
repeal was not recommended "to please
England"
The president stated he had not yet
given serious consideration to applica-
tion and suggestions for appointments
to the reserve bank board under the
new currency law. Secretary Of Agri.
culture Houston's illness, it was ex-
planned, had delayed the selection Of
reserve cities, so that their announce
ment was not likely before April |.
The president had been informed, he
said, that the American Federation of
Labor had appealed to various congress
men specifically to exempt trades
unions from the operation of the hd.
ministrations proposed antitrust legis-
lation but no appeal had been made to
the executive personally.
He Indicated there were no new de-
velopments in the Mexican situation.
