IRISH PEACE HOPE
REMAINS HIGH ON
CONFERENCE EVE
If SHUTS Will Act AS
Chairman DeValera
Will Confer
(By Associated PressD

London, July THE Irish peace
movement on the surface made no
further progress TO-DAY, but hopes re-
main mainly on account of the fact
that General SHUTS, premier of South
Africa( is taking such an active part
in the negotiations with an evident
purpose to translate into practical
policies the Kings message and ex-
hortation for forbearance at the
opening of the Ulster parliament.
The Kings evident and serious in
terest in bringing about peace is also
a strong factor in the situation, His
proffer of Buckingham palace for the
meetings of the proposed conference
points in the direction of a repetition
of the peace efforts of 1914 when the
home rule conference assembled in
the palace under the Craftsmanship
of the Ri. Rev. James William Low
Their, then speaker of the house of
commons.
1t is believed that if an indepen-
dent chairman ware appointed to the
conference now contemplated especi-
ally General SHUTS, who is trusted
by the Irish people, there would be
a far greater chance of Mr.. DeVal-
era accepting the conference. 1t is
probable however, that nothing will
develop definitely, pending tomor-
rows Dublin conference between the
Irish republican leader and the Sou
thern Unionists.
General SHUTS will not attend the
conference.

titled today in an effort to show that
Conrad had visited Wheeler, told him
he was government officer and that
he possessed evidence that three To-
cal bankers were members of an al

offered to act as an intermediary in
"hush" money negotiations with a
view to trapping Conrad
Conrad also testified today to the
effect that Sheriff Bowling, of Duval
county was involved in illicit whiskey
operations here. Conrad said he made
a trip to Nassau for the sheriff to
obtain 100 cases of liquor. Later he
was appointed a deputy sheriff and
assigned to whiskey smuggling &C
tivities on the river. Liquor gathered
in raids on vessels he said, was slowed
at place up the river known as the
"Oaks" from where it was later dis
tributed.
