PUBLIC IS REFUSING TO PAY EXCESSIVE
 PRICES FOR GOODS
Result is Downward Trend in Price Says the
 Board

Washington, Aug. 31.-Refusal of the public to pay "excessive prices'' caused continuation of the down. ward trend of values in August, the federal reserve board declared in it's monthly review of business condi- tions issued tonight. The board ad- ded that the reaction" against high prices had been accomplished by a general slowing up of demand in the wholesale field and by slight evil dences of unemployment in some sec tions.
 The boards views of the nations business generally were more opti- mistic than recent expressions and indicated an expectation of more stability in industry and commerce. While the review mentioned signs of conclusion of the transition pe- riod it countered with the statement that progress in this direction was slow and "much still remains to be done" before the country can be said to be on a stable basis. The hope full assertion was made, however, that the readjustment had continued consistently.
 "In the agricultural regions" the review declared" the promising crop prospects have given a much hopeful turn to affairs and have tended to minimize the broader questions of price adjustment, money rates and industrial unrest. In those parts of the country the paramount idea is production on large scale accompa- nied by improvement of transporta- tion and labor conditions.
 "Where the processes of distribu- ting and financing are more impor- tant, the prospect for improvement is less immediate although funda7 mental conditions are slowly improv- ing and the underlying business sit uation is usually described as sound"
 Transportation continued hamper ed during August, the review said, adding that although shipments were moving with increased celerity, much dissatisfaction still existed in all sections. This condition was said to be noticeable particularly in the movement of agricultural products to market.
 The depression which has char acteried business in many lines dur ing the summer continued most markedly in the manufacturing of shoes, according to the review. Re- sumption of activity in the shoe trade is promised immediately after Labor Day in many sections while others reported that prospects of lower prices mean a continued hold ing off of buying by the public with the result that manufacturers will have orders on which to work, the review said. Numerous large shoe concerns still are. either wholly closed down or are operating on short time and most all have curtailed their purchases of leather. I

HARDING ADVOCATES
 ROOSEVELT POLICY FOR WESTERN STATES
G 0. F., Nominee Speaks to Delegation of Western
 Governors

Marion, O., Aug. 31.-The Roose- welt policy of conservation to develop the west and insure an adequate food supply was advocated by Senator Harding today in speech to del- egation of republican governors. He also suggested many soldiers might be provided homes in the undevel- oped western country and declared the duties of reclamation as devel- opment rested both on federal and state authorities and on the public as we'll as private financing.
 Drawing on analogy between pres ent conditions and those following the civil war, the nominee declared his conviction that many former sol diers would be glad to help open the unsettled regions of the west as a reward for their service to their country. He asserted that peril to the nation would result unless there were a greater development of ag- riculture in comparison to the growth of the city population.
 "It was against profligacy," he said ,"that Roosevelt raised his voice and exercised the veto power. He started the great reclamation movement. What Roosevelt did for his time we must carry forward into the future."
 Senator Harding also declared that in it's conservation policy the govern ment must guard against private mo- nopoly but said he had "no particular preference between the employment of private capital and public funds to attain the highest productivity of natural resources. He asserted that the country needed a resumption of the republican conservation program inaugurated by Roosevelt neglected since 1913."
 Eight republican governors and sev- eral republican gubernatorial nomi- nees were in the delegation. After the nominees addressed at the Hard ing front porch, the entire party were guests at G. A. R. picnic at Marion park and most of the visitors made short speeches.
 To the old soldiers, Senator Hard ing made only two-sentence talk, saying his appointments made it impossible for him to indulge in a more extended address. The meet ing at the park was closed by fife ard drum serenade, in which the ncminee's father, Dr. George T Harding, civil war veteran, played the snare drum.
 Besides the state chief executive those who, saw the candidate during the day included Joseph c. Cannon. former speaker of the house, Senator Charles E. Townsend of Michigan and Colonel Dan M. Hall of Colum- bus ommander-in-chief of the G. A. R. Governor Stephens of California also talked to Senator Harding and aftcrwArd said that the senator might be expected to make a public ex- pression on the Japanese, question Gin the near future"

SUFFRAGE VOTE IS EXPUNGED BY THE TENNESSEE HOUSE Filibusterers Return From Alabama and Vote is
 Recalled MANY FAVORABLE TO
 SUFFRAGE ABSENT Their Failure to Arrive Threw Weight of the House to Those Opposed
 Legal Question
 Now

Nashville, Aug. 31.-The Tennes see house of representatives, with a quorum present for the first time since August 20, expunged from its journal today all record of the rat ification of the suffrage amendment and voted AZ to "A, with twenty not voting, to not concur in the action of the senate in ratifying. Shortly after the house convened, lit became evident that the anti-rat- ificationists majority of whom have been in Alabama on a filibus- ter for more than a week, were in the majority through failure of sev- eral of the suffrage members to ar rive in time. With clock like pro- gram, the antis proceeded to put through their plan of attempting to undo what was done on August 21, when ratification was accomplished.
 The first step was a motion to ex- punge from the journal of that day all references to the proceedings up- on the suffrage ratification resolu- tions. After this was carried AZ to 37 with six not voting, motion was made and carried that certified resolution, the original of which is in the hands of the senate, be spread upon the journal.
 Representative Riddick, floor lead CT of the ratificationists, made the point of order that the resolution was out of the hands of the house and now part of the federal consti- tuition through proclamation of Sec retary of State Colby. He was ov- erruled by Speaker Walker.
 The house by a viva voce vote then adopted motion to reconsider its previous action upon the reso- lution. Motion was then made and carried to not concur in the action of the senate in ratifying the ratifi- cation resolution.
 In the course of the discussion on the legality of the action of the house in reconsidering, Representa- tive Riddick read letter from States Attorney General Thompson in which the latter expressed the opinion that reconsideration of the resolution was impossible, since the house had already ratified it and Governor Roberts had certified to Secretary Colby this action by both house and senate.
 Governor Roberts declined to make any statement tonight as to the ef- feet of the houses action, saying that the matter was purely legal one and in the hands of Attorney General Thompson.
 Action of the house is not taken seriously here, as the general opin- ion prevails that legality or ille- gality of ratification will be decided upon the record certified to Wash ington by Governor Roberts.
 Anti-ratificationist would not state tonight whether they expect to make an effort to have the senate, which voted to ratify 25 to 4, to revise it's action.

MAYOR M'SW|NEY
 SLIGHTLY BETTER.
 RIOTS AT BELFAST
Strikers Condition, However, Continues to be Very
 Critical
TROOPS ARE ORDERED
 SENT TO BELFAST
Nine Dead There as the Result Oi Mondays RiOting-OminOus Signs of Further Trouble
 Usher in Day

London, Aug. 31.-Terence Mac Swiney, lord mayor of Cork who is in Brixton prison in critical condi- tion as result of his hunger strike, passed slightly better day Tues day. There was little change, except that the prisoner has developed symptoms of neuritis in the arms. Mrs. MacSwiney remanied at her husbands bedside tonight.
 MacSwiney spent restful night and his sister remained near Brixton prison, where he is confined, thro- ughout the night, thinking she might be called for.
 An official who saw MacSwiney early today described his condition as being like that of "man on a precipice," adding that "the slight est breeze might blow him over at any time."
 Dublin, Aug. 31.-Cameron High lander troops, the First Scottish Fifles, went on board special trains here this morning and it was believed they were being sent to Belfast.
 Belfast, Aug. 31.-Nine persons are dead as result of yesterdays riot ing, in this city another man being killed last night and two of those wounded in yesterdays disorders dy- ing.
 Revised reports as to casualties show that since the rioting began last Wednesday, twenty have been killed.
 Knots. of soldiers held stragetie points in the affected areas during the night and it was stated this morning that troops occupy virtually all the police barracks in the city.
 Ominous signs of further trouble 'ushered in the new day in riot-torn Belfast. The only actual outbreak reported early this forenoon was the stoning of employees of Mackie's foundry in the notorious Kashmir road district, but groups of men col lected at many corners along Polls road, King street and Royal avenue, giving unmistakable indications that trouble might come.
 Never in the history of Belfast was there such disorders as pre- vailed yesterday. Mobs fought with wild fury in different sections of the town, womeY mixing with the men in the melee that developed. wherever the opposing factions met. Girl workers fought like wildcats in one place yester- day, parties attacking each other as they were going to work. Unionist women charged on a number of Ma. tionalist girls in Cork street, while the Nationalists made an attack on Unionists in the Falls road district.
 The districts were placed under curfew ordinance last night and there were rumors that martial law would be declared, but nothing def. mite was done by the authorities.

BRITISH HELP FOR DEMOCRATS CHARGE
 FAILS TO HOLD UP
BrittOn Unable to Produce Ev.
 idence to Back Up Claim

Chicago, Aug. 31.-Fred A. Brit ten, member of the national house of representatives from a Chicago district, was called to give evidence to support published charges that british government funds were be- ing used to further the Cox cam. paign during the senate inquiry to- day. He told the committee that fiction story being circulated free to country newspapers by the Western Newspaper Union was, he believed, paid for by British inter- ests. The story, entitled "Uncle Sam of Freedom Ridge," was said to be propaganda for the league of na- tions and the newspaper syndicate's $ offer of it to the papers bore an endorsement of the story purporting to be by President Wilson. He said he had no further evidence.
 Senator Pomerene asked MT. Brit ten if he meant "to dignify what you have given this committee as evidence" MT. Britten replied that he did and the Ohio senator ask ed:
 Don't you regard it as a pretty serious matter for member of con gress to make a serious charge ot that kind against the British gov ernment or any other government without having any proof to- offer to the committee ?"
 Congressman Britten replied that he did not make the charge against the British government but that it was merely suggestion based upon his opinion.
 The committee called Males H. Nc Milan, Chicago manager of the Western Newspaper Union, but he was unable to throw any light on the question. Senator Reed brought out that the probable cost of the venture would be from $27,000 to $30,00O.
 George H. White, chairman of the democratic national committee, was then put on the stand and testified that Paul Cochran, publicity direc- tor of the demorcatic committee, had to him that the committee distribute the story through the newspapers.
 MT. White said he favored the pro- ject if the cost was not too great but never approved MT. Cochran's plan.
 "You don't know who arranged for it, who is paying for it?" Chairman Kenyon asked.
 Nobody on the committee to my knowledge has arranged personally" the witness replied.
 Senator Edge asked Mir. White if the plan would not violate the cor rupt practices act and MT. White re- piled:
 "Well, I would want to take that up with an attorney. I very frank ly haven't thought of it and will take that under consideration"

PLAINTIFFS GIVEN INJUNCTION AGAINST
 A. 0. J. W. OFFICERS
Local Men Are VictOrs in Hearing Before Mar
 tineau

Little Rock, Aug. 31.--With the con- sent of the attorney for the defend ant officers of the grand lodge of the Ancient Order of United Work men, Chancellor Martineau Tuesday morning issued a temporary restrain ing order enjoining the defendants from any further payment on pur- chase of the Knights of Pythias build- ing, and from any further payment of salaries, and making any invest ment not authorized under the con- stitution and bylaws of the order.
 The court directs that the plaintiff have access to the books of the order for the purpose of making an investi- gation. Basil Baker of Jonesboro, at- torney for the plaintiff, pleaded in his argument that if the value of the A. o. U. w. building had not been raised on the books from $215,000 to $30O,O0O, the organization would be shown to be insolvent.
 MT. Baker further stated that money collected for payment of death ben efits had been diverted for brass bands, banquets and advertising" and that number of death claims re- main unpaid.
 It was contended by the defense that the action of the members of the subordinate lodges was for po- litical effect only and that the mat ter should remain in statu quo until convention of the organization in this city on September 21.
 The court also ordered that only the stated salaries be received by the grand officers. Excessive sums which the complaint charged they had been received in addition to their stopped.
 In an amendment to the complaint the plaintiffs today alleged that un- der the constitution the grand master workman is given authority to ex- pend for extension purposes seventy five per cent of the premiums of new members for the first year of their membership. They alleged that one hundred per cent of the above funds were being expended and that they were being used for purposes other than extension.
