No Settlement Is
Reached inCriisiis
Over Irish Peace
Sim Fein ENJOYS Meet With
Premier, But Formula for
Preventing Disruption
Is Not Found.
ny The Associated Press.

London, Oct. 25.-The committee
comprising Premier Lloyd George,
Austen Chamberlain, Arthur Grif-
fifth and Michael Collins, appointed
yesterday to endeavor to find a
formula that would enable con-
tinuance of the Irish conference,
conferred another two hours today
without completing its task. No
date was fixed for the reassembling
of the conference, because the COM
mittee's report is not ready.
The Ulster question is closely con-
nected with the question of the Sim
Fein's consent to enter the British
commonwealth, and the committee
today had to consider conditions for
meeting Sim Fein demands for
Irish unity.
Maps Used Freely.
Sean McIlroy, Sim Fein member
of the house Of commons, was in
conference with Sir Hamar Green
wood, although the latter is not a
member of the committee.
Maps showing the distribution Of
Catholics and Protestants again
were brought into the committee
conference, and the inference was
drawn that the Sim Fein is fighting
the Ulster issue before consenting to
yield on allegiance to the crown. Its
arguments were, marsha1ed by depu-
tations, which before the. conference
met, waited on canon de Valera
in Dublin from all sections contain
ing nationalist inajorities within the
area of the northern parliament.
Unity Is Fundamental.
In replying to them, Mr.. De Val
era declared the issue of Irish unity
to be as. fundamental as that of the
Irish form of government. At the
Irish headquarters tonight an al
tempt was made to convey the i'm
preston that break-off tomorrow
and the immediate return home of
the delegates are within probability.
Among British officials, however,
there appeared disposition to be-
lieve that the committee would pre-
sent its report and that full con-
ference would reassemble tomorrow.

ny The Associated Press.

resting nearly three years in France,
he began his last homeward journey
on the United States cruiser Olympia

The symbol OF the lost American
dead will rest on French soil in the
American National cemetery at
Arlington. for the Olympia carries a
large box OF the soil Of France,
enough to cover the bottom Of the
grave.
Simple sincerity marked the de-
parture OF the unknown warrior, as
did his selection yesterday at
Chalons. Sur Marine. Just before
placing a medal Of the Legion OF
Honor OH the casket, Minister Of
Pensions Maginot. speaking for the
people OF France, declared:

piousiy preserve your memory and
the land of France will never forget

Three thousand school children
were. among the throng which met
the funeral train today when i ar
rived from Paris. The children
threw hundreds of flowers before the
cortege. Then they formed on each
side of the gun-carriage and escorted
the unknown warrior to the pier.
American officers, including Major
General Henry T. Allen, many
French officers, and citizens walked
behind the gun-carriage through two
miles of crowded streets. decorated
with American and French flags.
Allen Thanks France.
Major General Allen expressed
the appreciation of America for the
touching manner in which France
bade farewell to the unidentified
hero: He said:
THE great republic which is
re:.dering you homage is likewise
paying tribute to your comrade in
blue who fell with you and who
lives in the hearts of his country
men as you live enshrined in the
loving memory of yours. Your gal
liant deeds are indelibly inscribed in
the pages of history to the glory of
your nation
The parting ceremony was held
on the pier. Six army pallbearers
carried the hody,tp-the gangway and
placed it on the pier Afterward
six American sailors and six French
"poilus" carried the floral tributes
aboard as the American band played
Chopin's funeral march and the
American national anthem.
AS the order to cast off was given.
the American flag was half-masted
and an escort of seven French de-
stroyers accompanied the Olympia to
the three-mile line. Airplanes waited
to fly over the Olympia as she passed
out to sea.
The French marines stood at at
tention until Admiral Dewey's old
flagship became a speck on the
horizon.
