He was first led to the subway platform and then sud denly hurried to an automobile into which his luggage had been placed. He was driven to the home of priest in the suburbs.

Major Buckley when asked if there would be a special session to handle the trolley-jitney situation, replied: "A communication was received from the. selectmen of the town of Man chester asking for a special session on this matter and the reply was that the matter had been extensively discussed at the last session of the General As sembliy. The communication to the selectmen further stated that there was nothing in. the trolley-jitney situ- ation to warrant a special emergency and therefore a special session would not bee a1led.''
 Majr Buckley also stated that Gov ernor Holconlb had not as yet receiv- ed any letter from National Chairman Will H. Hays on the matter of call ing a special session to consider the ratification of the suffrage amend ment. He said, further, that if for any reason a special session should be called any business might be included which of course would give the legis- lators a chance to take up the suf- frage amendment. =-=H sH

Mannix Arrives In
 London AtDawn

London, Aug. 10-Archbishop Man nix, who was landed yesterday at Penzance, arrived here at o'clock this morning. There were only few reporters and a handful of priests present to greet the arch bishop but heavy police guard was maintained about the station. There were no untoward incidents.
 A less impressive welcome for Archbishop Mannix could hardly have been staged than that which greeted him when he arrived at Paddington Station. Only the late editions of last evenings newspapers published the fact that he had landed at Penz- ance and was coming to this city. Therefore only a few knew that he was to arrive at early hour today.
 Railway officials had arranged for his train to be hanked on either side by other trains, and both ends of the platform were guarded by police and detectives.

FRANCE IS OPPOSED.

London, Aug 10-Great Britain has been given a few very anxious days as a result of the Polish situa- ton. Nobody in this country wants to embark in another war. Not only has England no soldiers to send but the whole community is tired of war and over burdened with taxation
 Result of the Hythe conference are considered as compromise between the British and French
 The British premier apparently had two policies for dealing with the present situation. One is to arrange terms with the Bolsheviki of Russia and the other is to help Germany get on her feet, both policies being an- tagonistic to what appears to be the French view France wants the Al lies to support Poland by all possible means, and suspicion of any assist ance to Germany seems to be appar- ent-
 Italy was not represented at Hythe but it is asserted she is in entire ac- cord with England.
 That Lloyd Georges policy toward the Bolsheviki will eventually triumph in this country seems as- sured by the strong attitude taken by labor, which will enforce by a gen. eraI strike its demand that the coun- try shall not be committed to further warlike enterprises.
