ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS in the peace

Lloyd George and leaders of the Irish
republicans are imminent, it is report

to lift the veil of secrecy. There were
certain deductions made from the ar

but they could not be verified.
One rumor was to the effect that
Mr.. O'Brien was the courier who would
take the Sim Fein reply to Mr.. Lloyd
George, while another story declared
that Eamonn de Valera would himself
return to London soon and that Sir
James Craig, the premier Of Ulster,
was also coming to this city. It also
was reported that members OF the
Irish republican parliament, which has
been expected to meet soon, have
made preparations to receive a sudden
call to Dublin, and the British govern
ment declared to be ready to release
imprisoned members of the republican
parliament Immediately after being
appraised of the date upon which the
parliament would meet.
1t was admitted in Sim Fem quar-
tiers that there are considerable diff
ference Of opinion among members OF
the republican parliament respecting
the concessions to be demanded from
England Some members we're declared
to be adhering absolutely to the de-
mand for full national independence.

low Naval Limitations Agree
ment; Session May
End This Week

Washington - Confidence that the
agreement on the reduction and llmlta- |
ton OF naval ornaments could be com
pleted this week and sealed at a plen-
airy session of the international con-
ference, was expressed by members Of
the American delegation Sunday.
The American delegates are also con-
fident this agreement win include n
Limitation of submarine tonnage, which
may represent compromise between
the 10000 tons proposed by Secretary
Of State Hughes for Great Britain and
the United States and the $4,000 tons
OF the original Hughes plan with pro-
portlonate allowances for France, Italy
and Japan.
Such confidence Is not shared by
members OF other delegations, notably
the British, who regard the submarine
controversy as n tangle which will not
be easily Strengthened out. Some OF
the British representatives are ex-
tremely pesslmlstlc, lnclnlng to the be-
lief that no settlement is possible and
that the conference VIII find II neces-
sary 10 leave submarines out of the
Limitation agreement, with each nation
permitted TO build as many as II may
deem adequate for defense.
French delegates said they would
not he ready to state their position on
the latest Hughes proposal until after
hearing from Paris, probably Monday.
Mr.. Huges proposes that France be al.
lowed TO maintain her present sub
marlrp strength Of approximately 81,
600 tons. The French pronounce this
, unsatisfactory, insisting a maximum
, approximatlng 100000 tons Is neces
sary for the protection OF France and
her colonies.
! The Japanese also are far fran nat
isfied with the 81 600 tons allowance
: OF the Hughes proposal. They wan
