WASHINGTON, Dec. 12-The fight

Rod.
When the House Foreign Affairs
committee met to consider the bill Of

ministers and consuls to the "repub-
lie" of Ireland, opposition to the bill
developed among Irishmen themselves.
George L. Fox, of New Haven, rep
resenting the Irish that are friendly
to Great Britain, said "the Sinnfeinr
secessionists are traitors to the Unit
ed Kingdom and also to the United
States. They are consumate liars
and bolshevistic in temperament and
advocate wholesale robbery and spoil
iation.
The United States should 60 10 war

PRESIDENT WILL
ACCEPT GARFIELD
RES|GNAT|0NSUR
FUEL ADMINISTRATORS RESIGNS
BECAUSE OF TERMS UNDER
WHICH PRESIDENA SECURED
STRIKE RECALL FOR THE COAL
F., MINERS
(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12-President
Wilson will accept the resignation of
Fuel Administrator Garfield, it was
announced at the white house today.
Garfeld's letter of resignation was
forwarded to the President by Sec.
Tumulty today. Authority of the Of
flee will be exercised by Rail Director
Hines and his regional directors, it
was announced.
Men close tc the fuel administrator
understand that he believes that the
work of the commission authorized
under the settlement to be made up
of one coal mine operator, a coal
miner and a third person named to
represent the public, will result in an
increase in the price of coal to the
consuming public. Against this form
of settlement, DR.. Garfield has been
ftsnaltefably opposed. It has been
learned on good authority that he
took no part in the negotiation with
the mine workers union chiefs dur
ing the last week, and that though in
formed and consulted after their ini-
tiation, the terms laid out as finally
accepted contravene his conception OF
the main principle involved.
It was recalled in connection with
the resignation that in suggesting a
IA per cent wage increase as fair to
the miners and possible to be paid
from present profits of mine owners.
DR.. Garfield suggested commission
representative of the industry to re-
view the findings, but expressed the
conviction that such a body should
not have power to fix prices. His be-
lief is said tn be that with this power
granted, a combination of the enl-
ployer and employe in the industry to
mulct the public by price raises IS
certain to result.

dawn a great darkness invariably
