Irish Hunger Striker
AT Point
OF Death in Cork Jail

CORK, Ireland, Oct. 25-The
grief into which South Ireland
was plunged today over the
news of Terence MacSwiney
death was mingled with fever
ish interest as to possible de-
velopments.
Although the people appar-
emily are stirred to the high
est degree of bitterness it is
regarded as improbable that
there will be any outbreaks or
disorders connected with it.
Considerable extension of the
guerrilla warfare against the
police and military forces is ex-
pected, however
Cork jail, where a number of
other Irish hunger strikers are
in grave condition, continues to
be guarded inside and out with
strong detachments of troops,
machine guns, armcred cars
and tanks. Joseph Murphy, one
of the strikers, today was ex-
pected to die at any hour. The
Jail chaplin this afternoon said
prayers for the dying and Muir
phys mother and two sisters
were at his bedside.

COLISEUM PACKED
Delegate Outlines Policies
For Which He Stands to
Audience of 1000.
CONTRASTED
Intensive Development on the
One Hand, Conservationists'
Pulling Back on the Other.

Summing up the differences be-
tween the platform on which he is
running and that put forward and
advocated by his opponent, Delegate
George B. Grigsby told the 1000
or more people assembled at the
Coliseum theatre Saturday night
that he stands for rational and in
tensive development of Alaska and
its resources while Dan Sutherland
is tied hard and fast to the conser-
vationist policies now locking the
doors to Alaska's storehouse of
wealth The audience was the larg-
est that ever assembled at the Coli
Gross.
Viewed from every angle, Dele
gate Grigsbys speech, in the opin-
ion of those who heard it, was one
CT the strongest ever delivered here.
He went straight tc the heart Of
mincing words nor lodging issues.
Favors Vida Government.
Il am in favor of the widest pos
sible measure of Territorial Govern
ment for Alaska and ultimate state
hood" asserted the speaker. Other
Territories, he declared had been al
lowed to govern themselves. admin
istring their own affairs, except
those purely Federal in their nature,
and he believed that Alaskans were
entitled to the same privilege. He
declared for absolute control of fish
cries and game by the Territory and
asserted that he believed that he
could get Congress to turn these re-
sources over to Alaska. He favored
the establishment of a Development
Board such as outlined in the Lane
Curry bill. introduced at the last
session OF Congress, to handle such
things as are under Federal control
for the purpose of doing away with
;nterlocking bureau control and
long-distance government.
Confident of Election.
Opening his talk, the Delegate
stated that he had visited many
towns in the Interior and along the
coast to the Westward, addressing
more than so per cent of the voters
of Alaska since he was here last
August and that he was confident
of his election and CT that of At
torney General ]. c. Murphy. AT
every place that voters have been
given the opportunity to compare
his record and the platform on
which he is running with that OF
his opponent, he said, he has gained
supporters who will vote for him
without regard to party lines.
Platform Progressive,
For the first time in history, de-
clared the Delegate, Alaskans have
a chance to vote fer the things
which they want in the way of leg
islation. The Alaska plank adopt
ed by the Democratic National Con-
vention was prepared, he said, by
himself and adopted by that BODY
as a result of his own efforts. II
embodies declarations for practically
everything Alaska has demanded
from Congress for the development
Of the Territory.
Il pledge myself to work for the
modification of the existing coal
land law" he said. This, he added,
is one of the pledges made by the
Democratic party at San Francisco.

LONDON, Oct, 25.-Premier David
Lloyd George, members of the British

Neither side revealed the nature of

The cessation of coal mining

who is critically i'll from infection
caused by the bite of a pet monkey
has entered an acute cerebal crisis
according to bulletin issued today
by his physicians. His drowsiness
persists. the bulletin said.
Newspapers here speculate on his
successor, should his illness termin-
ate fatally. A number of foreign
princes are suggested for the throne.
It appears that Prince Charles Of
Belgium. younger son of King Albert
and Queen Elizabeth, is the favorite.
Opposing journals point out that
the natural heir to the throne under
the constitution would be Prince Paul
who is the brother of King Alexander
and third son of the former King
Constantine.

tion here today denied the report
