day.
The men propose to run the busi-
ness themselves and pay the wage
demanded.
Sir James Long, secretary OF the
harbor board, declined to surrender
the offices, but the workers insisted
and he departed. A majority of the
members of the board are republicans,
as is the strike leader, but the Irish

| Lloyd George today held conversations
with members of his cabinet, and civil
and military authorities in Ireland,
relative to the situation which has a.
risen as a result of the latest note to
the British government from Eamon
| De Valera, the Irish republican lead
er. The prime minister met his coll
leagues at inerverness near Gairloch.
Scotland, where Mr. Lloyd George has
been spending a brief vacation.
/ Altho London newspapers continued
today to counsel patience and forbear-
ance in dealing with the Irish ques-
tion, there were certain indications
that the Irish controversy had virtually
reached crisis, and that tomorrow's
meeting of the British ministry might
prove historic. A party Of American
tourists has sent anonymously to the
premier and the cabinet, a box of
cigars. Accompanying the cigars was
note of personal esteem and of ap-
probation of prime minister Lloyd
