 Mere intellectual power and scientific achievement without uprightness of char acter may be more harmful than igno- rance" the court asserted in overruling exceptions of pr Arthur A.

Your last telegram makes it clear that misunderstanding are more likely to in- creace than diminish and the cause of peace is more likely to be retarded than advanced by the continuance of the pres ent correspondence.
 We request you. therefore, to state whether your letter of September is intended to be a demand for surrender on our part or an invitation to a confer ence free on both sides and without prejudice should an agreement not be reached.
 If the latter, we readily confirm our acceptance of the invitation, and our ap- pointed delegates will meet your govern ment's representatives at any time in the immediate future that you designate.

 BY THE DAHL EIREANN

Dublin, Sept. 19.-The members of the Dali Eireann cabinet, reviewed the sit nation this afternoon. giving particular attention to Premier Lloyd Georges tel egrams At the conclusion of the ses- sion of the session a reply to the Brit ish premier was drafted and dispatched immediately by MT. De Valera. So far as the Sim Fein position is concerned, it did not appear to change it in any way.
 At the same time, it is announced that MT. De Valera's deeire for a con- ference is strong, as is that of his col leagues The members of the Dali Eireann do not believe that the notes forwarded to Mir. Lloyd George\ were open to the construction that they claim ed recognition as a sovereign state. As some of them express it, their idea of 2 conference is one which may lead tc association with the British common wealth, and. if that failed, would leave them in noworse position morally thar when they entered it.

COTTON MARKET SHOWS
 RETURN or CONFIDENCE

New York. Sept. 19-The cotton market today recovered from the de- cline of last week.
 Offerings were much smaller, and re- ports that holders of spot cotton in the south had shown a tendency to with draw their offerings on the decline seemed to revive confidence in values nthe basis of small crop figures.
 The comparatively small volume of Vocal hedge selling and the appearance of buying orders from the trade encour- aged the bullish view of spot market conditions An advance in the late af- ternoon was accompanied by reports hat some of the larger Wall Street op- orators were replacing along lines upon which they had taken profits recently. The price of January contracts ad- 7anced to 1880 or S7OO per bale above the closing quotations of Saturday and ihe general market closed strong at advances of .125 to 142 points for the 1 day. Local brokers attributed the ad- vance chiefly to the fact that specu a. tive long lines had been liquida+ed last week, combined with a growing beliet that holders of spots in the south would market their cotton gradually.

London, Sept. 19-(By The A P.)-t Eamonn De Valera telegraphed to Pre- mier Lloyd George today in response to the premier's last message. the republican leader asking whether MT. Lloyd Georges letter of September was intended as "a demand for surrender on our part, or an invitation to a conference free on both sides and without 1Eejudice should an agreement not be reached"
 Mir De Valera says that if the latter is meant the Sim Fein confirms it's ac- ceptance Of the invitation to a conference and it's delegates will be ready to meet the British representatives at any time in the immediate future.
 Mir De Valera in beginning his note declared that the Sim Fein at no time had thought Of asking the acceptance of any conditions for the conference.
 He expressed the belief that treaty Of accomm odation and association" prop erlv concluded between Great Britain and Ireland and the states making up the British commonwealth would end the dis pute forever enabling both British and Irish 10 settle down in peace and work together in friendly cooperation in "af- fairs of agreed common concern"
 The nature of the message from MT De Valera necessitates a further ex- change of telegrams, unless some sort of u't'matum is forthcoming.
 Many of the London papers have com uented on the danger of the ''Open di- pIomacy" involved in this public ex- rhangc of messages, which they point out. makes it exceedingly difficult for either side to recede from the position adopted.
 The text of MT De valera's telegram follows:
 Sir We have had no thought at any time of asking you to accept any condi ton precedent to aconference. We would have thought it as unreasonable to ex pet you. as a preliminary, to recogniz th- Irish republic formally or inform ally as that you should expect us. form ally or informally. to surrender our na tionsl position. It is precisely because neither side accepts the position of tn other that that is dispute at all ant that a conference Is necessary to searc for and discuss such adjustments a mfght compose it.
 A treaty of accommodation and as sociation. properly concluded between tn people of these two islands and betwee Ireland and the group of states in tn British commonwealth, would. we believt end the dispute forever and enable tn two nations to settle down in peac each pursuing it's own individual develoI nent and contributing it's own quota civilization but working together in fire and friendly co-opera ton in affairs ( agreed common concern.
 ITO negotiate such g treaty the respe tive representative of the two natior must meet, but # you seek to impos preliminary conditions which We must r gard as involving the surrender of ol whole position, they cannot meet.
