resistance to the demands by the

BRITISH PARLIAMENT
 ADJOURNS ID OCT. 19
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 LONDON, Aug. 16-The house of commons tonight agreed to the motion of Andrew Bonar Law, government leader adjourning the house until Octo Der 19, but empowered the speaker to summon parliament earlier should public interest demand. This and MT. Bonar Laws declaration that should Russia's armistice terms to Poland be materially altered, the government would not act without consulting par iiament, meets the oppositions objec- tionS that the country should not be committed to any intervention against Russia without consent of parliament
 Bonar Law confirmed that the ar mistice terms to Poland as announced Britain and Italy and said if they were sincerely adhered to, Great Britain would not interfere.
 Although todays sitting had been especially called because of the Polish crisis, 1t had, from this viewpoint, lit tie interest, owing to lack of news from Minsl<, where Polish and bol- shevik emissaries are comforting.
 Paragraphs in newspapers, consid- cred by some to have been inspired, have led the public to expect some new declarations of policy toward Ireland by the premier or Mir. Bonar Law iG lines of dominion home rule, but this expectation met with disappointment. Mir. Lloyd George confined himself to repeating his offer that the govern ment would discuss a settlement with any representatives of Irish opinion but excluding the Sim Feiners, pro- vided they accepted three stipulations that northern Listers six counties must be treated separately; that there must be no secession of any part of Ireland from the United Kingdom and that the government could not agree to anything that would involve any de- traction from the security of the Brit ish isles or their safety in case of war.
 This guarded statement probably will be interpreted as an invitation to continue outside discussion of domin- ion settlement, which have made such unexpected progress recently

 ST. GATHERINGS, Ont, Aug 1s.- Common sense and spirit of fair play tonight saved the life of David McNe eal who had been committed for trial dur ing the afternoon at the town hall in Thorold, on a charge of having mur- dered four year-old Margaret Boucock on July 8, last. The mob which num- bered several thousand persons. set fire to the town jail after the prisoner and police officers had been smoked out of the town hall, which the mob had set on fire also. When darkenss set in, the crowd which had grown to large proportions began to storm the town hall with bricks and stones. Be- fore long every window in the newly built building had been shattered and then the mob attacked the doors. Me Neal and the police officers saved their lives by crouching in corners and hold ing chairs in front of them as volleys of rocks swept the building
 The flares were thrown through the shattered windows and couple of men rushed a bundle of hay saturated with gasoline into the ground floor. Flames burst out and eventually the smoke and fire drove the men down the stairs and out.
 we surrender" yelled McNeaI as he came down the stairs, with Chief Frank Collins of Thorold. hanging to his steel Wr1Stiet. A Buffalo newspaper man was aQedQ or McN6al and the crowd seized him and were rushing him off when he showed his badge and they let him go.
 McNeal was seized and taken in an automobile in front of the town hall. rope was run up pole and prepara- tions were made to hang McNeal. He screamed for mercy while the mob howled.
 Give him a chance" called some one and that met with popular approval.
 Men if you are men, give me a chance to make statement McNeal shouted. Tt may be my last words on earth"
 McNeal and the crowd later moved to the public library steps. due to the heat caused by the burning town hall
 McNeaI spoke for half an hour be- fore huShed crowd. He swore he had not killed Margaret Boucock "Only degenerate could do such a thing, he said.
 From one section of the great audience came insistent appeals, "give the man chance, hand him over to the police.s
 When McNeal ceased speaking there was no further talk of lynching The crowd was almost jovial. No one touched McNeal as police supported the prisoner to an automobile, and he wa. rushed off to Welland before there was time for the crowd to change it's mind.
