tions, it was announced today, al
though it is reiterated in Belfast that
no message has been received there
from Eamonn de Valera.
1t is added that no overtures will
be entertained which diminished the
powers of the northern parliament.
None the less the imperial govern,
ment continues optimistic as to the
outcome If it can get the opposition
leaders to get here.
While the Sim Fen leaders are
maintaining silences, it is believed
Mr.. De Valera and his advisers favor
conference in London and will sup
port before the republican parliament
a proposal for such a conference.
II is hoped in government circles
here that the republican parliament
will announce its willingness to open
direct negotiations in London for the
future government for southern Ire

PERPETRATORS OF
LySOL OUTRAGE: IN
FLIGHT FROM LAW
TWO OF TRIO MIXED UP IN MO-
TOR INN EPISODE BECOME Flu.
GITIVES-EVADE SHERIFF WITH
NEW SET OF WARRANTS.

Warrants were secured yesterday
by Sheriff Ayers, charging three Pc
ru men with the running Of a disor-
derly house. The men, Ralph Her
bold, Ed Koehler and James Stewart,
all we'll known residents of Peru, are
accused of operating Motor Inn
which closed after a lysol pouring
episode last week.
Last night the deputies from the
sheritt's office went down to Peru to
serve the warrants. Upon their ar.
rival in that city they found that
Herbold and Koehler had fled from
town Stewart is said to have volun
tarily surrendered himself to the au
thOrities, but to have stoutly denied
he was guilty of the charge. Sheriff
Ayers stated today that Stewart con
yinced him that he was not guilty OF
running the notorious Illinois river
island resort
Herbold was to be arraigned in
Justice of the Peace kOenig's court
at 10 O'clock today, to face charge
of assault and battery, on a war
rant secured for his arrest by Sam
uel Ong, who alleges that while he
slept last Friday night at the inn
Herbold poured lysol on him. He
could not be located by the author
ties to be brought into court at the
time of the hearing.
The warrant for Herbold's arrest
was secured in Ottawa early this
week. A warrant was secured in Ia
Sale by Ong a few days before the
second warrant was issued, but fOl
some reason he changed his plans
and decided to prosecute his alleged
assailant in an ottawa court. Her
bold was arraigned in La Sale or
the first warrant yesterday, but his
case was continued until Aug. 10.
The second warrant for Herbold's
arrest was suppressed until today.

LONDON DOUBTS RUSS
REPORT ON PRISONERS

London, Aug. 5-The American re-
lief officials in London are placing
little faith in the reports that the
American prisoners in Russia have
been released and now are leaving
that country
The word we received yesterday
was merely Letvian newspaper re-
port forwarded by our representatives
in Riga" said the secretary to Waller
l.. Brown, European director of the re-
lief administration this morning We
are keeping a yigilant watch over ev-
cry possible exit the Americans might
take from Russia and none save Mrs.
Marguerite Harrison has as yet come
through.
This leads MS to believe. he added,
that the Letyian report of their re-
lease must be a product of the Boil
shevik propaganda organization.

DRIVER WANTED IN
MINI. FOR FORGERY
MAN IN COUNTY JAIL ACCUSED
BY SHERIFF OF CARRYING ON
EXTENSIVE BUSINESS AS
CHECK kITER-WlLL TAKE HIM
BACK FOR PROSECUTION.

T.. r. White, arrested by the local
authorities after he had speeded
away after striking Bert Gould's car
at Earlville, is wanted for many Of
fenses in Minnesota, according to
States Attorney Clark and Sheriff
| Claus a. Thoerin, of Grow Wing Co.,
who arrived in Ottawa to take charge
of him today. White was branded by
the Minnesota authorities as no.
torious check "kiter."
| He is said to have secured the as
| sistance of three innocent women, in
the stealing of a Buick roadster, in
which he was riding, when arrested
here. The ear was stolen on the
night OF July s from the side Of the
city park, where a band concert was
being held in Brainerd, MINI The
car which was the property of the
Ingrund Auto Co, had been left
standing in the street by its owners.
Three ladies were in their car which
was parked so that the Buick could
not get out into the beaten path of
travel. White went over to the
Buick, saw that he could not get it,
after which he IS alleged to have
stepped over to the car in which
the three women were sitting and in
formed then that he would like to
get his car out.
The ladies got out in the street,
and sassisted him in rolling the
Buick free of the other vehicles.
According to the Crow Wing coun-
ty officials, White was an expert at
raising checks. His speciality was,
they claimed. to secure an SIS check
from a man, after which he would
raise it to $50. Even the machines
which perforate checks, and are sup
posed to be bomb against raising
did not daunt him. He devised
eighty and 20" after the figure.
Several So checks which were al
legged to have been raised by him
are held by the Crow Wing county
authorities.
White made settlement with
Gould for the damages incurred by
the latter's auto in the smashup, af.
ter which he was turned over to the
Minnesota authOsities.
The Minnesota men stated that so
far as they knew, the Buick car that
White was riding in, was the only
auto he was ever accused of steal
