London, September 7-Lord \ Mayor and feverish evening in Brixton jail, but otherwise his condition due to his pro- longed hunger strike was unchanged
 Premier Lloyd Georges suggestion for the release of Mir. MasSwiney and other hunger strikers, conditional on a guar antee of the cessation of murders of po- licemen in Ireland, seems not to be re- viding any practical issue for the break - ing of the deadlock between the govern ment and the dissident Irishmen al- though the belief prevails in some quar- ters that it may be accepted as an indi- cation of slight yielding on the'part of the premier from his previous attitude.
 MacSwiney's friends declare that it would be impossible for him to give sucii "a guarantee. Even if he could do so, they say, the reprisals by the police, such as the burning of creameries and other acts of destruction, enter into the question.

"The Polish troops have tried throughout to avoid shedding blood. but on September detachment of Polish cavalry was attacked by Llthu- anian troops and forced to evacuate the town, losing four dead. The Lithuanian army then occupied Suwalki and ad- vanced upon Augustowo without de- clarng war. It was aseertained the bolshevil troops co.operated with the LitEuanians.
