KINGS SPEECH
WAS PREMIER'S
AsQuith Takes Responsibility
For lis Wording,
CONfEnEES MEET AGAIN

Round Table Conference on Home
Rule tias Aroused Public Interest
and HUGE Crowds Greet Partici-
pants.
London, July 23.-Premier Asquith
assumed in the house OF commons full
responsibility for the speech made by
the king 10 the political leaders who
had met at Buckingham Palace to con-
fer on the Irish home rule problem.
The premier thus set at rest varl-
Gus reports in circulation since the
Ulster controversy has become acute
and since the first announcement OF
the conference. The premier SAID:
The speech was sent to me in the
ordinary way by his majesty the day
before it was delivered and | take the
entire responsibility for it.
"The king left it to the discretion
of the conference to determine Wheth-
err or not his speech should be pub
lished and the conference decided
unanimously in favor of its publica-
ton. His majesty throughout this mat
ter has followed the strictest consti-
tutional practice. He has not taken
any step from the beginning until now
except in consultation with and on
the advice of his Minister'S
Premier Asquith, on being question
ed as to the calling of the conference,
said with emphasis that all attending
the conference did so Internationally.
He declined to discuss why 1t was be-
ing held in buckingham Palace instead
of in the house Of commons.
Public interest in the crisis over
the Irish home rule question over
Swallowed everything else in the British
Isles. When the representatives or
the Liberals, Conservatives, Irish Ma.
tionalists and Ulster Unionists arrived
at Buckingham Palace to continue
their conference they found an enor-
nous crowd assembled in the great
open space before the gates OF the
palace The various statesmen as they
passed in were respectfully greeted by
their sympathizers. The conferees re-
manned in session an hour and half.
Openly, of course, the two sides de-
clare that they cannot withdraw from
their present positions, but it is I'M
derstood that Premier Asquith is like
ly to submit to the conference pro-
posal to allow the Protestant counties
Of Ulster to vote together on the ques-
ton of exclusion from the home rule
parliament and that he may also go so
far as to change the time limit of six
years embodies in the amending bill.
1t is no exaggeration to say that the
first impression produced by the king 5
speech when the text became known
in the Hobbies of parliament was one
of establishment bordering on stupe,
faction. A good many Unionists view

How Rough Diamonds Shrink.

The loss in weight in diamonds when
going through the process of clea wing
and chipping and polishing amounts to
frops 30 to 90 per cent on the average.
Accordingly, the price of rough dia-
mond will have to be advanced in the
finished brilliant. aside from all other
expenses, at least twice to three times.
With the well known ''solitaires" the
loss in weight Is even greater, because
1t Is necessary to chip off so much
more. Thus. the diamond Excelsior,
which, In its crude raw state, weighed
971& carats, produced two br1lliants.
weighing together only $40 1882
carats, with loss in weight Of Is per
cent: and the Cullinan. originally
weighing 3.O24% carats. was reduced
to only $50 carts, with loss Of 81 So
per cent.

gone to a potato patch near the house
and was bending over the plants wher
she heard a step behind her. Turning
she saw Dooley with a revolver in hi:
hand, smiling ironically at her.
Mrs. Martin sprang toward Dooley
who, she said. leveled the weapon a
her and fired. The bullet struck hel
In the cheek, knocking out her teeth
She grasped the man by the arm anc

the weapon was again discharged b!
Dooley, and the bullet ploughet
through Mrs. Martins hand.
She continued to hold the weapon
until, weak from the loss of blood, she
tainted and fell to the ground. Dooley
is said to have fired another shot al
her as she lay PROSTATE, but the bulle
missed its mark. He then reloaded
and ran into a strip of woods.
Several farm hands In a field near
by heard the shots. They carried Mrs
Martin into her home and flashed the
news of the shooting to Coatesville
and Downingtown and to be on the
watch for Dooley.
Word of the attack made upon Mrs
Martin spread through the country
side rapidly. Posses were formed in
Coatesville and in Downingtown. AS
sured that his wife would not die
Martin took a shotgun and joined the
searchers for Dooley.
The fugitive made his way north
ward, carefully avoiding farm houses
and keeping to strips of woods wher
ever possible. He was seen by several
persons as he was Sinking through q
patch of woods, and the posse from
Gainesville was notified.
In this body were w. l.. Jones, the
burgess of Coatesville; Chief of Pc
lice Gray, of Downingtown, and Pc
licemen Brawson and Tucker. Racing
over the country roads in a motor car
they came up with the man near the
Black Horse hills.
AS he heard the sound of the ap
preaching car, Dooley turned. A swift
glance showed him that the occupants
were pursuing him. Without waiting
for an attack, he leveled his revolver
at the car and fired twice. Then, leap
ing a worm fence, he ran to a strip OF
woods.
The small forest in which Dooley
had secreted himself is about quar-
ter of a mile long. Separating, the
members of the posse went at points
where they surveyed the entire cir
cumference of the woods, and then
a signal began working their way
toward the center.
AS they were cautiously advancing
they heard two shots from a thicke'
in the center of the trees. Hurryins
their steps, they came upon Dooley
lying on the ground, with two bullet
wounds in his head. Beside him was a
large pocket knife, and his throat was
cut.
Dooley was unconscious and he was
at once rushed to the hospital in the
motor car.

Joseph Caillaux, the prisoners nus

that the honor and patriotism OF M

by Maitre Chenu.
Georges Prestat, brother-in-law O
the murdered editor and chairman o

to the stand and emphatically denied
that the Figaro had been in the pay o
foreign banks. The Germans, he said
had never held the majority of the
shares of the Figaro. as had been al

While NJ. Prestat was testifying NJ
