 Agreement 1 WANT BIG CAUCUS
 OF PACT HACKERS Propose U. s. Agree to Enter All~European Wars Menac- ing Civilization

WASHINGTNN. Dec. l9.-Formal consideration of issues of the peace treaty fight will be reopened tomor- row by the senate foreign relations committee and an effort made to work out new compromise plan to be placed before the senate after the hol- idays.
 The resolution of Senator Knox. Republican, Pennsylvania, to declare a state of peace is expected to be the basis of the committees work. Var ious notifications are expected, how ever, so as to incorporate provisions which Republican leaders hope will draw Democratic support.
 Among the changes and additions understood to have been considered by the Republicans is one designed to preserve to the United States any material advantages embodied in the treaty as it stands. Another sugges- tion is that the resolution include a general declaration of policy pledging the United States to intervene in any future European war which menaces civilization.
 Some members of the committee de sire 10 see action also on Senator Knox's alternate resolution to ratify the treaty with the league of naions covenant excluded, but the objection was made today that two-thirds vote would be required for that measure.
 While the committee leaders were shaping plans for consideration of the peace resolution as a compromise. a number of senators of both parties continued to urge a general confer ence in January of Democrats and Re publicans earnestly desiring ratifica- ton with reservations. So confident were some of these senators that they predicted such a ratification by Jan uary 15.

Murderers of Guard of Lord Lieutenant Use Weapons
 From Behind Wall FIRE POINT BLANK
 ON BRITISH LEADER Small Party With Viceroy Drives Attacking Force
 With First Fire

DUBLIN. Dec. 19-A determined, but unsuccessful attempt was hlaue today to assassinate Viscount FTench' lord lieutenant of Ireland.
 The attack evidently had been most carefully organized in narrow, wlno- ing road with high walls and hedges. One of the attacking party was Killed and a detective in the Viceregal car was slightly wounded in the hand. WIS count French was not injured.
 Roth bombs and revolvers were used bv the assailants, the number or whom is yariously estimated at from 5 to l5. The viceregal party fired on the assassins as they fled across the fields. but all escaped except the one man killed, who was shot through the head.
 The ambuscade had been carefully planned, the assassins placing oD- structions in the road, hoping to com pel the motor cars in which the vice regal party was travelling to stop. Be- hind the hedges and walls, in favor able positions, they had stationed themselves for firing upon the lord lieutenant and his party.
 Attack Wrong Car
 when Lle dulOluOD1ACo dpPAOoNhOu revolvers were fired and bombs were thrown. The assassins evidently ex- pected Viscount French would be in the second car in the line and at 1t most of the shots were aimed. He, however, was in the first car, into which only a few bullets penetrated. A shot, however, directed at the first car, struck the detective, who was sitting beside the driver, in the hand.
 Almost immediately the viceregal party opened fire on the ambuscade men, who took flight on bicycles across the field. During this shooting one of the men later identified as hav- ing fired directly at Viscount French's car, was seen to throw up his hands and fall.
 Around the finger of the fallen man was found the ring of a discharged hand grenade, and in his pockets were two revolvers-one of Spanish make and the other an old German model.
 The affair lasted about half min ute, but during this time the firing from both sides was rapid.
 After the attack case of Mills bombs, similar to those used in the war, was found in the road and un- discharged hand grenades. Late to- nigh the police said that there might have been thirty men engaged in the attack, deployed at intervals of more than 200 yards. The viceroy had with him only four armed policemen.

Palmer Says Pact With Union Leaders Was Triumph for
 Administration
OPERATORS CALL IT .COWARDLY SURRENDER
Attorney General Testifies to Inside Elisory of Big
 Strikes Ending

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Attorney General Palmer told a senate coal in- Vestigation committee today that the firm, strong hand of the government, finally had forced the miners to yield"
 Alfred M. Ogle, chairman of the executive committee of the Bitumin- ous Coal Operators association told the committee that MT. Palmer en- deavored on Friday, December 5, to induce the operators to compromise with the miners on basis of more than the IA per cent wage increase suggested in behalf of the government by former Fuel Administrator Gar field.
 Continuing, Ogle surprised the committee with the assertion that MT. Palmer had told the operators, Federal Judge Anderson at Indian apolis, who issued an injunction against the strike leaders on the government application, might tact in a characteristic fashion, and put a lot of union leaders in jail" thus precipitating "a terrible industrial situation"
 oGLE SCORES PALMER
 We replied" said ogIe, "that we
 considered the proposal cow
 ardIy, dastardly surrender of the
 rights of the public and the gov
 ernment. We considered it
 compromise of principles for
 more important than any ques-
 tion of the wages of miners, or
 our own profits as operators of
 coal mines. We thought it a
 question of the maintenance of
 law and order in the United
 States.
 The attorney general took the com mittee over the entire ground tray ersed by the government in the strike. After Fuel Administrator Garfield had suggested and the min- CTS had rejected 14 per cent wage increase, and a retention of the pres ent price on coal, the government, he said, had prepared to fight the thing out" Then John J. Keegan, an attache of the department of labor, brought about successful mediation. John L. Lewis and Wm. Green, presi- dent and secretary, respectively, or the United Mine Workers came to Washington and held two private conferences with him in one day.
 Wilson lnterVenes.
 President Wilson meanwhile had prepared a statement, MT. Palmer said, and at the second conference, which Joseph P Humility, secretary of the president, attended, the min- CTS representatives 'acquiesced to the presidents proposal" There was no settlement of the strike, MT. Palmer asserted but "an arrangement which finally accomplished the ob- ject we wanted, the production or coal"
 Mir. Palmer said that on train go- ing to Indianapolis, where injunction proceedings were to be disposed or, Palmer, accompanied by Lewis and Green, drew up a memorandum specl- fying the conditions which the mln- CTS accepted. It was this memor- andum which finally caused Dr. Gar field to resign. It proposed to ere ate a commission of three with power to ''readjust both wages and prices, he explained, while Dr. Garfield thought that "only a consultative body" should be created.
