Each Denies Blame.

Blame for the accident is placed by
official of the company and Captain
Wade Smith of the Frear upon La
Flame, because, they claim, he failed
to need the signals Of the captain and
pilot of the Frear. I
La Flamo in turn blames the cap
tain of the Frear for trying to make a
landing after he stood up in his boat
and signalled in a manner which. he
said, was intended to convey the
meaning that ne was having troubles
with his craft.

London, June 27.-Belief that Presi
dent De Valera will accept Lloyd
Georges invitation to come to Lon
don to confer with the Government
and Premier Craig of Ulster to bring
about settlement of the Irish prob.
lem is expressed generally in reports
from Dublin.
Llyod Georges invitation has ap.
parently caused a profound sensation
in Dublin. The sources predicting
that De Valera will accept say that
he probably will attach sharp copdi-
tons to his acceptance, one being
that more binding guarantees than
those contained in Lloyd George S
letter must be given regarding the
safe conduct of certain of his col
leagues whom President De Valera
may wish to accompany him.
In the event that President De Val
era refuses the invitation it is gener-
ally believed that the Government
will make energetic preparations for
a vigorous campaign to suppress Sim
Fein activities in the west and south.

Cardinal I4ogue, primate of ireland,
said he could not see much use of a

NEW YORK, March 10.-Lying far
out in the Pacific ocean the radio sta

The audibility was excellent and
the experiment was pronounced
highly successful by Col. ]. J Carly

phone and Telegraph Company. who
directed the work.
The distance over which greetings
and music were heard Is more than
1000 miles. The connections by way
of the transcontinental circuit from
New York to Long Beach, Cal, were
quickly accomplished.
The ship Gloucester, used for the
test, stood out at sea twenty miles
north OF Provincetown, Mass. She
was in radia connection with the sta
ton at Green Harbor, near Boston.
The Green Harbor station was con-
nected with New York and with Los

The station at Long Beach, con-
nected by wire with San Francisco,
was in radio connection with the sta
