peril of a party split was over
 The compromise plank was describ- ed by Senator Borah as establishing these three principles for which the irreconcilables had contended:
 Omission of any pledge for ratif1- cation.
 Commentator of the Senate for refusing to ratify.
 A statement that any future league must be in accord with American ideals and the principles of Washing ton.
 r Senator Borah said that as the treaty plank had been approved by MT. Mills he presumed it was also acceetable to former Senator Crane whe was understood to have kept in tov-h with MT. Crane by telephone.
 The agreement was reached at a conference attended by Senator Lodge Of Massachusetts, the Republican Sen ate leader, and afterWard Senator Bo- rah declared that Senator Lodge had taken stand opposed to ratification of the treaty and would So state to the convention.
 The development came as a. sensa- ton soon after the subcommittee had begun what seemed likely to be a long and desperate struggle. It re- moved, subcommittee members said, the obstacle which had been holding up the work of the convention and probably would permit final action by the convention on the platform at to- days session.
 The plank, together with the re- mainder of the platform, still had to be passed on by the full resolutions committee. but the leaders expressed every confidence that the work of the subcommittee would be approved virtually without change

Prominent Republicans Confer With
 Mayor.

Disturbed over the statement of John T. King at the Chicago conven- tion that Bridgeport will go Demo cratic by 5000 votes this fall," there was a great gathering of the admins tration party leaders in the City Hall thls morning. All of them were anx- 1ous to have talk with Mayor Will son, who because f the many callers was unable to see the newspapermen, a customary courtesy.
 William E.. Seeley, ASlose friend of King, couldn't account for the state ment of the Fairfield county boss ex- cept to say that perhaps he told some Of the upstate politicians that unless they called a halt to some of their work in this county, Bridgeport would turn into the Democratic column
 The mayor has refused to comment on the statement. Aldermen Hamil- ton, former president of the board, Connors, R. Arthur Brown and others who are prominent in the inner circles of the party, held conferences this morning with the mayor.

DISCUSS CHANCE
 OF GETTING COAL
Supply Problem Vexes Board of Educa-
 tion.

With coal retailing at s15 a tou and dealers refusing to take any orr ders, the supply committee of the Board of Education will meet this afternoon at o'clock to talk over the prospects of getting coal for the schools this winter.
 Some time ago the committee sent out communications to the To- cal dealers, asking them to submit prices for coal and have the figures ready for the meeting today. The dealers have a hard time now to get coal and they cannot give a price. The figure that coal now sells for is url- precedented in the summer time when the fuel is usually at it's low est figure and the time when a great many obtain their supply for the winter.
 Few persons are getting in their supply at this time because dealers find it difficult to fill orders of any description. No orders are taken for fuel.

Not one soul of all on board, reached land but one sailor who floated ashore on a bale of cotton at Oldfield Light just west of Port Jefferson.
 He told of the terrible scenes en- acted during the panic on board dur ing the fire and of his sufferins while soaked to the skin with the ice cold water of the Sound as he floated to his haven.
 Unavailing search was made for many years in an attempt to locate the burned hull but no trace of it was found until this week.
 The safe is said to contain a large amount of gold and other valuables and the captain and crew of the Ar gonaut believe that they have made a big hit by locating the old steame and clearing up some of the details of the tragedy.

Chicago, June 10-Virtually devoid of hope that Republican leaders here will urge the governors of Vermont and Connecticut to call special 1egis- latiye sessions to pass on the suffrage mendment, members of the National Women's Party prepared today to in- tensify their picketing attack on the convention. Tickets were sent out with banners calling upon the voters to ballot against the Republican party until it took more decisive ac- tion on equal suffrage.
 ''The situation looks darker today than it ever has since we came to Chicago Mrs. Abby Scott Baker de- clared. HWe shall sharpen our at- tack from now on unless something is done. Our actions may lead to arrests. but we are ready for any emergency, for we are tired of wait- ing.'

ciples which protect the liberty and independence of the people of the United States and which in no case than the reservations proposed and adopted by the Republicans of the Senate"
 plank relating to the peace resolu- tionS, Mexico and Armenia follow:
 Peace ResoIution:
 We approve the action of the Re- publican party in Congress in passing a resolution to repeal the declaration of a state of war with Germany which would have brought peace and re- 1ieved the people of the burden of ths war measures and we condemn the presidents veto of this resolution.
 Mandate for Armenia: We con demn President Wilson for asking Congress to empower him to accept a mandate for Armenia We commend the Republican Senate for refusing the presidents request to empower him to accept mandate for Armenia. The accepta nee of such a. mandate would throw the United States into the very maelstrom of European quar- rels. According to the estimate of the Harbord committee, organized by au- thority of President Wilson, we would be called upon to send 5, 900 American boys to police Armenia and to expend s276 900 900 in the first year and $756,- 900, 900 in five years This estimate is made upon the basis that we would have only rowing bands to fight, but in case of serious trouble with the Turks or with Russia. a force ex- ceeding 100000 would be necessary.
 No more striking illustration can be found of President Wilson's disregard of the lives of American boys or of American interests.
 We deeply sympathize with the peo- pie of Armenia and stand ready to help them in all proper ways but the Republican party will oppose now and hereafter the acceptance of a man. date for any country in Europe or Asia.
 Mexico-The ineffective policy of the present administration in Mexi- can matters has been largely respon- sible for the continued loss of Ameri- can lives in that country and upon our border.
 For the enormous loss of America n and foreign property; for the lower- ing of American standards of mor- aIity and social relations with Mexi- cans, and for the bringing of Ameri- can ideals or justice.

Accepted first by the conference of leaders, the Root plank later was given unanimous approval by the Is members of the sub committee.
 Senator Lodge had no statement to make when he emerged from the conference but he immediately went into consultation with Senator Wat son of Indiana, head of the sub-com- mittee, who, with Senator Shoot, of Utah, had been at work all night to bring the battling clements into har- mony.
 Quitting all endorsement of the pending league covenant the Root resoution provides for new agree ment with other nations which shall include tribunal for the settlement of international disputes. It was pre- pared by Senator Root before his de- parture for Europe but has been mod flied considerably by the sub-commit- tee.
 Although the subcommittee also approved today the Mexican and Ar menian blanks they decided to spend the day in putting the platform into final shape and to submit it to the full committee at 4 p. m. It also was suggested that the convention might hold night session to approve the platform and possibly begin work on nomina tions.
 After the agreement Senator Borah said the unanimous compromise would be submitted to the full committee within an hour with every prospect of approval and that it was planned to present the completed platform to the convention at 4 o'clock.

WALSHMEN ARE
 REILLY'S GUESTS

The members of the Bridgeport baseball team will be entertained at the New Haven County jail in New Haven this afternoon after the game with the New Haven Indians, by Sheriff Thomas L. Reilly and Jai1er Edward Keating.
 Manager Ed. Walsh of the Bridge port team is deputy sheriff under Sheriff Reilly, who takes this method of showing his appreciation of the great work his deputy is doing as manager.
 Sheriff Reilly was the manager of the New Haven team some time ago and has had personal experience with managerial difficulties.
 Some Bridgeport fans believe that the only way that the local team can be prevented from winning the pen nant is by keeping them in the jail house after the Sheriff gets them there.

Almost at the moment the conven- ton managers made this agreement they received word that the platform committee was about to agree, that all danger of split had been averted and that the report would be pre- sented today. A fulfllment of this latter plan would bring on some or the nominating speeches today.
 At 11:2O o'clock Secretary Miller of the Republican National Commit tee informed Governor Willis of Ohio, who is to nominate Senator Harding, that the convention would proceed to nominating speeches while awaiting the report from the platform com mittee.
 At conference of the leaders, however. it was decided to recess un- til 4 o'clock this afternoon, when the report of the platform committee will be received.
 This morning, as the conference of the resolutions subcommittee began in a desperate effort to conclude it's work and lay a completed platform before the convention at today's ses- sion, the remainder of the full reso- lutions committee began its consid- eration of other blanks agreed on last night by the subcommittee.
 These include an industrial rela-
  ence to anti-strike legislation had been omitted; a plank blaming the depreciation of money values for the high cost of living; one opposing government ownership or operation of railroads: and one expressing in general terms, without mention of a cash bonus, the gratitude and gener- osity of the party to former service men.
 There also was a plank asking for prompt ratification of the woman suffrage amendment, but the sub- committee voted against inclusion of any direct reference to prohibition
 The tentative foreign relations plank under consideration in the subcommittee provided in part:
 We approve the action of the Re- publican senate with respect to the proposed treaty of peace with the covenant of the League of Nations
 we declare our opposition to the treaty and the League of Nations as submitted by the president and approve the action of the Republican Senate in resisting ratification with out safeguarding reservations.
