ed Serious.

London, April 19.-The confer
ence of Irish Nationalists, Sim
Feiners, O'Brienites and Laborites
held in Dublin under the chairman
ship of the lord mayor yesterday
passed a resolution declaring their
determination to resist conscrip-
tion. The reason was similar to
the one adopted by the Irish bish-
ops at Maynooth earlier in the day.
In the resultion the bishops de-
clared that conscription was being
forced on Ireland and that it was
an oppressive and 1nhuman law
which the Irish people have the
right to resist "by all means con-
sonant with the law of Cod"
The Irish clergy was directed to
announce days for receiving contri-
button money and the parish meet
ings will be held next Sunday to
gain adherents to the resolution.
The authorities in Ireland are TAX
ing steps to deal with the situa-
tion. which to say the least, is
threatening.

HOUSE REJECTS
WHEAT AT $3.50
Measure Proposing Increase In
Price Is Beaten-HOlds Present
Price of SO Enough.

Washington, April 19-President
Wilson won his fight against $3.50
bushel wheat in the house late to-
day when the senate proposal was
rejected and the agricultural ap
preparation bill sent back to con-
ference with house conferees in
structed to stand against the in
crease in the existing government
maximum of 81.
The proposition to increase the
government price to $3.50 bushel,
presented by Senator Gore, COM
manded the support of two-thirus
of the senators, although the pres
ident told the leaders he was op-
posed to the increase; that it was
not needed to stimulate produc-
tion, and that 50 was a fair price
and offered reasonable profits.
The conferees will meet early
next week to consider their course
The test vote on $3.50 wheat
came in the house on an amend
ment by Representative McLaugh-
lin of Michigan, to make that the
maximum price at primary mark
cts.
After a day of debate this
amendment was lost by a vote of
$50 to 13S.
An amendment by =. Representa-
tive Morgan of Oklahoma to make
the price $265 bushel went out
on a point of order.
The bill was sent back to con-
ference by a vote of 167 to SO.
The old sectional fight between
the wheat growers and the cotton
planters cropped out in the de-
bate.
Representative ]. Hampton Moore
of Philadelphia put 1t BADLY when
he declared:
eff we fix the price of wheat we
should fix the price of cotton. The
price so fixed should be fair, with
reasonable profit, and stable for the
war period. Fluctuation, maximum
or minimum prices, as a result OF
frequent changes by congress, Of
fer chances for speculation. Farm
ers and planters hold back their
products in the hope that the gov
ernment will guarantee higher
prices, while the consumers need
the produce"

French and British associates dur

which they have displayed from the
beginning of the war.
Fortunately, the relations be-

cordial and happy, and the well

spirit which you are showing, the
courage, the resourcefulness, and
the zeal for the performance of
