ELUDE CAPTURE;
PAPERS SEIZED
Chief Secretary Macpherson
HaStenS to Ireland After
Attack on Lord French.

DUBLIN. Dec 2O.-In spite Of
strenuous exertions on the part Of the
police and military authorities to dis
cover the perpetrators of the attempt
n assassinatc Niscount French yes
terday it was generally reported that
no arrests had been made up till noon
to-d day. The public feeling is calm
and there have been no dcmonstra-
tions
Documents were secured by the
authorities last night when q store in
this city was raidcd, the officers hav-
ing been led to the place by papers
found on the person OF a man named
Savage. who was killed while running
from the scene of the attempted as
sassination.
An inquest over the body Of
Savage, who belonged TO the Sim
Fein volunteers, is to be held on Mon
day.
LONDON, Dec. 2O.--ln connection
with the attempt in Dublin TO assasssi.
nate Viscount French, Lord Lieutenant
or Ireland, james Ian Macpherson.
Chief Secretary for ireland. has ar
ranged to go to Dublin Immediately.
says the Daily Mail. Mr.. Macpherson is
under constant guard Of two detectives
and when he reaches ireland his
bodyguard will be increased to twelve
men.
The Nails Dublin correspondent
quotes Lord French as saying re-
Gently: IF they want me, they will
find me doing my duty. / am not going
to alter my routine for all the threats
in Ireland"
A writer in the Mirror says he talked
TO Viscount French while the lattc-
was in London recently in connection
with negotiations relative to the
Home Rule Bill. He asserts the Vis-
count declared: 81 fully expect to bc
fired upon, but fortunately they do
not always hit what they aim at"
The consprators are supposed 70
have numbered from five to thirty,
and all got away on bicycles except
the one killed.
Tho most serious feature Of this
crime for tho Viceroy is that it in
dicates that some one In his entour-
age must have given away the time
and the direction Of his drive. The
utmost secrecy Is observed as TO his
intended movements, which are
known only to a very few around
him, but the would-bc assassins seem
to have been fully and accurately in
formed in advance Of his movements.

HOME RULE BILL READY;
GIVES IRELAND RIGHTS HELD
BY STATES IN AMERICA
Lloyd George Expected to An
nOunce Terms of Irish
Measure on Monday.
CONCILlATORY IN TONE.
Two Legislatures With Repre-
Sentation in British Parlia-
ment Proposed.

LONDON, Dec. 2O.--The proposed
Irish bill Premier Lloyd George will
outline in the House Of Commons
Monday will. it is believed, forecast
"a government for Ireland analogous
to the state governmental system in
the United States. It is understood
To provide for separate parliaments
for Ulster and Southern Ireland re-
spectively, with a superior body
chosen by both sections, all of the
bodies to be responsible regarding
imperial affairs to the British Parlia-
menL to which Irish representatives
would be elected, as the states elect
members to the American House of
representatives
A large amount of autonomy is TO
he given to each section OF Ireland,
with thoroughly easy machinery pro-
Wdcd for their combination as soon
as they desire TO unite, the bill be-
ing intended to pave the road for
elimination of the idea of the parti-
tion of ireland. To a combined Ire
land, it is indicated, even greater
powers may be given than are pro-
posed for the separate sections
It is expected that the Premier's an
nouncement will be most conciliatOry
in outlining what he hopes will be an
acceptable plan. The new scheme Of
49,
the plans previously discussed and
carries concessions on various quts-
tions much further. The Government
is understood to have kept before it as
primary points:
That the secession Of ireland
and the establishment Of an indie
pendent Irish Republic could not
be tolerated. but that, on the
other hand, the present system
Of Government could not be con-
tinued and that it was impossible
TO iunore the fact that there were
two great sections Of Ireland,
each Of whose claims must be
considered.
The bill is understood to provide for
granting the fullest possible freedom
to the two Irish Legislatures, admin
istering their own affairs. When ques-
tions affecting the Empire arise they
would como under the consideration of
the Imperial Parliament, in which Ire
land would have voice.
Precautions are being taken by the
Scotland Yard officials against pos
sible attempts 10 attack Premier
Lloyd George or prominent members
Of the irish Office in London. on
Monday there viii be careful
scrutiny OF persons entering the House
Df Commons To- prevent the possibility
OF trouble on tho occasion of Premier
Lloyd Georges announcement on the
Governments Home Rule measure.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2O.-Congress
will go home for the Christmas holidays
without hearing from President Wilson
as to the time for the return OF the

the White House that no message on

that the Presidents final decision would
await action by Congress on the pend

DETACHMENT OF
PACIFIC FLEET AND
HYDROPLANES MAY
BE FAIR ATTRACTION

The secretary of the county fair
board is endeavoring to make arrange
ments with the government to have d
portion of the Pacific feet, which has
just recently been scheduled for duty
In western waters, stationed off the
Yaquina Bay on the fair dates, prob.
ably sending in some OF THE smaller
craft, as submarine destroyers and
submarines, and to particularly have
some maneuvering by the government
hydroplanes. 1t appears that If these
arrangements could be made 1t would
be possible to have hydroplanes ply
up and down the bay, as there is a
splendid opportunity for this type of
afrcraft to land ON the waters Of the
bay. An effort is also being made, thru
the Oregon Areo Club and the Ace Air
craft Corporation. to get some special
hydroplane attractions in case it ia
not possible to get a detchment of the
Pacific Fleet
