NOW APPROVING
GEORGE PLAN
Ulster County Option
Proposal Meeting
With F avor.

Dublin July 2S-Renewed activity is
apparent III Irish political circles favor
ing dominion home rule as a satisfactory
settlement In addition to Sir Horace
Plunkett's dominion league, which makes
new appeal for funds, many 1rlshmen
of all parties are prompted by Premier
Lloyd Georges recent announcement to
press forward a plan differing from the
dominion leagues plan by agreeing to
allow the Ulster counties to vote them
selves out.
Nationalists hitherto violently opposed
to this course as being partition of Ire
land aave come round to favor ii and
have the support Of the Freeman,s ) Jour
nal, which IN recent months under new
I'r1prietorship could not be distinguished
from the Sim Fem organ.
In agreeing to waive the Republican
claim and to accept county option for
Ulster. important groups have met both
of the premers indispensable condi-
hcns. The crux OF the whole situation
rs the attitude Of the Sim Fein leaders,
who ID the press and Oh the platform,
continue to repudiate all compromise.
But the story circulated privately that
Eamonu de Valera has sent word that
dominion settlement should be accepted
and that several leading Sim FeineTs
believe this to be the best policy, though
not generally credited, has affected many
minds and is responsible. 70 some extent,
for the more sangaine outlook.
In circles In touch With official opih-
ion it is believed that the government
will assist on passing the present home
rule bill at the autumn session though
indicating willingness in response to
representatives Of Influential Irishmen
under Lord Dunravens leadership. to
improve its financial terms and extend
the powers conferred under it.
To all these activities the Sim Fem
leaders present front Of unchanging
indifference and disdain. The only
terms on which they are willing to meet
the premier. it is declared, embrace the
recognition of Ireland as an indepen-
dent nation. This conceded, they would
Be willing to meet him to negotiate

Siberia.
Secretary Colby has conferred with
Sir Auckland Geddes, the British am
bassador here. who brought into the con-
ference Sir Bielby Alston, British am
hassador to Japan, who is returning to
London on leave. Sir Blelby was I'M
position to give Mr.. Colby the latest
supplementing the views of Roland
Morris, American ambassador to Toxic,
who is home on leave Of absence
British interests in China and Japan
are regarded here as parelelling to come
extent those of America as well as the
common desire of the colonial govern
mcnts and California and other Pacific
coast states to find some solution OF
the problem of Oriental labor. The so
luton of this problem by the British
government, in the opinion here, is
made more complex by reason or me
existence of the Angl japanese treaty
which recently was renewed for one
year.
Changes in the status of the Chinese
eastern railway have been closely
watched since this line forms the most
valuable branch of the Siberian rail-
way and affords the only practical com
munication between the interior of
Siberia and Nladivostok and both the
United States and Great britain are
understood to desire that its interna-
tiona1 character be preserved to assure
the maintenance of the open door.
As to the Japanese occupation Of Sag
halien the United States is known to be
reluctant in this move. A dispatch from
Toxic Wednesday said that the Nichi
Nichi a newspaper there. has published
q statement that the Japanese govern
ment had received an inquiry partaking
of the nature Of a protest from "a GER
tain country" in connection with the in
tention of Japan to occupy this portion
of Siberia.
The general understanding Of those in
close touch with the situation was that
it came from the United States.
What purports TO be a copy of a dis
patch sent by the commanderin-c chief of
the Japanese forces in Siberia TO the
japanese minister Of war has come to
light here. 1t was dated July / and
said:
at is my intention to seize immed
lately the whole of the territory up TO
a line drawn west Of Baikal. $50 miles,
including in the occupation the Man
churian concession zone. Japan then
will be able to control the formation of
new government

notification of the action be communi
Gated to the powers and that the result
of the notification be communicated to

The appeal was made, the message con-

return TO work was abandoned when
members of the local unions met and
adjourned without taking any action to
end the strike.

slider the strike situation.
