Confusion in Names
Proves Embarrassing

Art Moran, 3522 Webster street,
wishes it understood he was in no
way connected with the quarrel
which led to the shooting of Joe
Moran by Frank Cirian in the base
ment of Cirian's home.
On two occasions Art Moran's S
name was enormously given out as
the man who was shot and killed by
Cirian. Owing to confusion brought
about by the fact that both Art
Moran and Joe Moran were amateur
base bali players it was reported by
mistake Immediately after the shoot
ing that Art Moran was the man
slain. Again Monday, through an
error, Art Moran's name was used in
The Bee.
THE confusion has brought my
husband and myself no end of en-
barrassment," said Mrs. Art Moran
yesterday. "Art was in no way in
volved in the shooting or the quarrel
between Joe Moran and Cirian. Art
never has taken drink in his life
and could not possibly have become
connected with such an affair"

Regents Agree to
S36O,OOO Reserve
For Universit,
Stipulation Providing for Such
Fund Filed in Supreme
Court as Mandamus Is
Dismissed.

Lincoln, Nov. 8.-(Special Telc-
gram. stipulation of the agree
ment reached between Governor Nc
| Kelvie and the university regents,
filed in supreme court today, which
means the withdrawal of the man
damus action against the governor,
contains the following high points.
The regents agree that the COVER
nor has right to slice quarterly es-
Inmates when he believes they are
exorbitant.
A total reserve of $360,000 will be
set aside from the 100000 univer-
sity appropriations. The sum Of
$45,000 is set aside each quarter
for reserve and if, after the quarter,
the regents can show the governor a
good reason why they should spend
it, the governor can turn any part
of 5000 over to them.
The regents put up the white flag
and the governor granted an armis-
tice which ended in terms satisfac-
tory to him, filed today.
The main contention was whether
the governor should act as a clerk
to scan university estimates for the
purpose of discovering clerical er-
rors with power to say, II wouldn't
do it, boys" or whether as the man
directly responsible to the people
he had right to cut down on esti-
mates if he believed they were too

Marking Time in

No Further Developments Ex'

Propagation Of Parliament
Hoped for Thursday.
by The Associated Press.

London, Nov. 8.-The belief was
expressed in high quarters tonight
that it might be Monday before any
developments occurred in the Irish
situation. All parties were busy in in-
formal discussion, but there will be
no specific move before Thursdays
meeting between the premier and
members of the Ulster cabinet. There
is hope that parliament may be
prorogued Thursday and as Friday
is Armistice day, further official con-
versations concerning Ireland are
likely to be adjourned until Monday.
In addition to having influential
talks with Premier Lloyd George
and Foreign Secretary Curzon, Sir
James Craig, Ulster premier, con-
suited with influential parliamentary
leaders, seeking their support for the
Ulster viewpoint.
Lloyd George presided over cab
met council tonight at which. it is
understood the kings speech pro-
roguing parliament was discussed.
1t is expected to deal mainly with
Irish affairs.
Unofficial reports were current
that in the event Thursdays confer
ence between the premier and the
Obstetrics shows the impossibility of
an agreement being reached with
Ulster the premier will make "a
grave and important announcement
to the house of commons. This is
commonly interpreted as threat
that he will resign if Ulster persists
in an unreasonable attitude.
In official quarters there is no sign
of an improvement, and the Ulster
cabinet is expected to give unani-
mously its reasons for refusing to
assent to concessions.
There will be no resumption of the
conference with the Sinn Fein dele
gates until the difficulty with Ulster
has been overcome.
