New York Herald Bureau.
London, Jan. 10.
A report on the Labor Commission's Is
inquiry into conditions obtaining in
Ireland and especially on the burning
of the city of Cork on the night of
December IL was given out at the
Labor headquarters here this evening.
1t directly charges that the forces of
the Crown were responsible for the
Cork burning and the looting which
followed
1t is the consensus here that this
report may force the hand of the Gov
ernment in making public the result
of the inquiry by Major-Ge Sir Ed
ward Strickland, commanding the
Crown forces in Ireland, on the Cork
conflagration.
After declaring that the burning OF
Cork was the work of forces OF the
Crown 1t expresses the belief or the
labor investigators that 1t was well or
ganized rather than due to the actions
of overwrought soldiers. 1t reviews the
Irish situation from practically every
angle and is strongly critical of the
administration during the last two
years
1t declares there ie a general desire
on the part of the Irish people for a
cessation of acts Of violence, but as
serts there Is no ground for the belief
they are ready to surrender uncondi-
tionally or are becoming anxious for
peace at any price.

LONDON, Jan. 19.-What is alleged to
be the sworn testimony of some seventy
eyewitnesses depicting the burning Of
public buildings and stores in Cork on
December IL and IL last as unprovoked
and unjustifiabe and the Prevailing
condition of Ireland under British mill
tary rule as one OF "lawless terrorism"
makes up the report on the Labor Com
missions Investigations In Ireland.
The report gives contradiction to
statements made by Sir Hamar Green
wood Chief Secretary for Ireland, in the
House of Commons that the Sim Fein
were the incendiaries responsible. ac-
cuses the crown forces of being solely
guilty and challenges the Government

CHAPTER TX.
A Signal Victory.


The mining man Hayes, the major
and John Moreland were waiting at
the gate when Dale, accompanied by
the moonshiner, returned to the cabin.
Dale was the first to speak. He told
briefly Of that which had taken place
at the blown-down sycamore, and at
the last of it By Heck Strengthened
proudly.
"I be dadjimmed eff l hadn't ha'
pumped him so full O. lead at the
couldn't enough O. men got around
him to tote off his corpst, eff he hadn't
ha' drapped the towards gum" By
Heck declared as fercely as he could.

friends. Now thar was my Uncle Bill,

1T was a nine-rail fence, By" I'M

you've done told that so much at
it's dang nigh wore out. S'pOsen ye
go back thar to the orchard ahind O
the house and see what Gale and
Luke's a-doin'; hey, By"
Heck nodded and went toward the
orchard. He knew they didn't want
him to overhear what they were going
to say, but 1t didn't offend him. 1t
wasn't easy to offend the good-natured
Heck.
Moreland turned to Dale. "WellT'
Dale turned to Hayes.
"We're going to begin the building
of the little railroad at the earliest
possible moment. And because don't
know anything about the work, I'm
going to ask you to take the lead. Now
there may be some fighting. | don't
want you to go into this thing bind
ly, you see. If you're going to with,
draw at all, do it now."
"Tm not stranger to fighting
Hayes replied smilingly. I've been
through half a dozen coal strikes. l
think you may count on me, Mr.. Dale" !"
"Then lay out a plan for immedi-
ate action"
"rd suggest" acQuiesced Hayes,
that we send to the little town In
the lowland for supply OF picks and
Shovels, axes and saws, hammers,
drills, and explosives. In the mean
time, you and l can stake out the
way for the track"
1t sounded businesslike, Dale
thought.
Within the hour John Moreland and
his son Caleb started for CarterSville
on foot, and in the older mans pocket
was money sufficient to buy the things
that were needed.
Dale and Hayes set out for the north
end of David Moreland's mountain,
and each of them carried a hand-ax
for making stakes.
1t was not often that the quiet Hayes
permitted himself to 20 into raDtures

/ never will. AS soon as | git my
hat Bill"
He went to the front porch and
took from a chairpost his broad
trimmed headgear. Then the two set
out
They crossed an ox-wagon road,
sweet-scented meadow, the river by
means of the blown-down sycamore,
another sweet-scented meadow and
another OX-wagOn road, and entered
the cabin yard of the Littleford chief.
Here, too, many old-fashioned flowers
were In bloom; cane fshtngpole,
slender and white, leaned against the
porch; 1t made Dale think OF
"You wait out here" whispered
Dale, with a hand on his companions
arm. "Pn go in and see If l can per-
suade Littleford to make the advance.
I'm pretty sure l can"
He started forward when a hound
rose from the stone step and growled
warningly. At that Dale halted and
sang out:
"Hello, Benz
The front door swung open, creak-
ing on wooden hinges, and Babes IA
ther, bareheaded and with lamp in
his hand, appeared in the doorway.
He knew the voice that had summoned
him.
Come right in, Mr.. Dale" he in
Come right in"
He Scolded the dog away, and Dale
entered the primitive home. He was
shown into the best room, where he
dropped easily into a roomy old rock
er that was lined with an untanned
sheepskin. Ben Littleford put the
lamp on a crude table, drew up an
other chair and sat down facing his
visitor.
81 hope We amt jest happened over
10 a minute or two on business" he
drawled; Il hope ye've come to spend
the night wi me, anyway"
I'm here in the interests of peace"
Dale began, looking at the hillman
squarely. Il want you Littlefords to
be On good terms with your neigh
bors, the Morelands. John is out
there at your gate now; he is waiting
for you to ask him in and say to him
Let's begin anew; let's be friends,
your people and my people, you and
me- You want that, don't you, Ben?
Babe did, Pm sure"
Littleford frowned, laced his big fin
gers together and twirled his big
, thumbs. Now that he was once more
at home, with assurance that his
daughter would entirely recover, he
was no longer weak; he had all his
old courage and all his old, stubborn
hill pride back.
