 FROM J. S TREASURY
TRepubIIcan 4. P. Leased WIrel

hGpuDftCdH A. Fs Led&co Wirel 7 WASHINGTON, July 7-Negotia- tions between government officials and railroad executives involving re- funding arrangements by which the carriers would receive approximately $500. 100000 in additional treasury ad- vances within six months are expect ed to be completed within two days Secretary Mellon announced today. The advances would be equivalent to the sums expended out of railroad ernings by the government in capital betterments during the war time con- trol. he added.
 Additional appropriations by con- gress. he indicated, may be needed before all the money can be fur nished. but part of it may be ad- vanced by the treasury out of present authorizations, if agreements tenta- lively reached are confirmed. The government will receive S per cent securities from the individual roads inolved in exchange for the ad- yances. and the railroads will be en- abled to pay off outstanding accounts for supplies and empark upon re- pairs which have been deferred Both Mir. Mellon and Secretary Hoover said tn plan contemplated
 would be of great business value to the country in easing credits and In furnishing employment Mir. Hoover estimated that 200. 900 additional men could be employed by the roads if funds were available.
 MT. Mellon pointed out that the transaction, if completed, would moi involve loss but may involve profit for the treasury, since the railroads will pay 6 per cent on the money ad-
 vanced the treasury borrowings have been obta:red generally at lower rates.

Officers Goodness Saves Crew Of Navy
 Blinnp From Death
IRepubIIcan 4. ?. Leaned WIrel

NORFOLK, Va, July 7.-The cool ness of Lieutenants B. N. Johnson, commander. and c. c. Atwood, pilot, was responsible, in the opinion of naval officers. for the escape of the crew of the naval dirigible C-5 today when it caught fire while flying 400 feet above the naval air station at Hampton Roads. The airship ex- ploded soon after it had been brought down by the officers but the six aboard had escaped to a safe distance and were uninZred except for burns received in the descent.
 The fire was caused, 1t was ex- p1ained, by the Tapping of a ripped panel and leaking hydrogen mixing with the air. With his coat burning Lieutenant Johnson fought to keep the flames from the fuel tank, and although his right wrist was frac- tured by propeller, he continued his efforts, meanwhile directing the de- scent of the craft. Lieutenant Att wood was surrounded by flames as he brought the big bag down by a swift drop.
 D. R. Russell, official photographer for the air station; M. Lemsky, chief machinist, and two other machinists suffered burns. The dirigible was starting out for a photographic flight.

GOLD SHIPMENTS TO
 AMERICA INCREASE l. RESERVE HOLDINGS

WASHINGTON. July Federal reserve bank operations the past year have resulted in an increase of it's gold holdings by $4S3,0 ,000, a de- crease in its notes in circulation of $4S0, ,000,0 900, and an increase in it's total reserves of s51e, 1000, 900, accord ing to a statistical summary issued by the board of governors today. The contraction of the currency indicated. the board said, the degree to which the country had entered a period of deflation.
 Characteristic of this period on the banking side have been reductions of loans and bills held, retirement of note circulation. gain in gold and liquidation of investments" said the statement, while on the business side they have been lowering of produc- tion, growth of unemployment. fall ing off of foreign trade and reaction of prices
 The spring months of 1921 would seem to be a period of approach to equilibrium in certain lines of busi- ness, and of preparation for recovery from depressed conditions.
 Total resources of the reserve sys- tenn, amounting to $5,242. .000,oo on June 29, were decreased 13.7 per cent from the total on June 25, 1920, of s6,074o0e.000. The capital of federal reserve banks. however. increa ased from ss4.500,0oo to s1o2.1s4.ooo be- cause "the system has steadily in- creased it's membership and strength This. the board remarked, was 'in | contrast with the decline in total re- sources"
 Government obligations continued | to work out of the banking system | and into hands of private or corporate
 investors, it was said, because reserve loans on treasury bonds and certifi-
 cates of indebtedness dropped from
 s1.soo; 100000 in June, 1920, to s64s.-
 o0o,000 last months The total re-
 serve notes in circulation last month | was s2.634, ,000.00 while in June. 1920
 it was $3.117 .00o, 900.
 Discussing the gold movements, the
 board pointed out that the metal flowed out of the United States 1T
 1919 in considerable quantities. but
 began returning in greater volume ir | 1920, the import for the past year
 being s616,00o,000. Offsetting imports | against exports, since the armistics
 and to June 10, the country's gold
 stock showed net increase of $120,-
 000.000 and was still bound upward
 The great shipments of gold tt the United States have been the re. suit of the slackening and disorgan-
 fzation of trade. and the disturbance
 of financial relationship" the board said.
 | Banking systems abroad were un-
 able to accomplish reduction of paper currencies, the statement said, to any,
 thing like the degree whih the fed
 eral system showed. In England cir culadng notes were reduced two per cent. while in France they increased eight per cent, in Italy II per cent
 and in Germany 27 per ent.

Irish Leaders Will
 Confer On Program For South Ireland
TRepubIIcan A. 2. Leased WIrel

DUBLIN, July 7.-Neither General Shuts, South African premier, nor Sir James Craig, Ulster premier, is expected here for the conference in which Eammon De Valera and other Irish leaders will participate tomor- row. Though nothing has trans- pired regarding the negotiations. MT. De Valera is known to maintain the republican principle, his attitude be- ing that he was elected with . re- publican mandate, which only the Irish people can vary.
 It is declared that if really large proposals were made, he would sub- init them for the determination of the Irish people. It Is considered im- probable that MT. De Valera or his colleagues will go to London in re- sponse to Premier Lloyd Georges invitation, unless the basis of the proposed conference there Is im- proved.
 The Irish Bulletin tonight contra diets statements in the London Press alleging cessation of reprisals since Lloyd Georges letter. The Bulletin without abatement as well as aggres- sion against Irish non- combatants and adds:
 sother forms of military terror are in full blast"
 The Bulletin prints a list which in cludes fourteen murders, 14 persons wounded and 10 properties destroyed between June 24 and July 6.
 MT. De Valera, in his conference with Earl Middleton, is said to have objected to the form of the proposed London conference and it is consid- cred very probable that he may have asked for General Shuts as chair man.
