Re payment of the English loan is asked on the ground thst the British gov ernment has failed to pay its i'm terest and is using the money avail able for this purpose to maintain sol diers to suppress Ireland and "other small nations" and to carry out a great naval expansion program.
 Approximately 95 per cent of the delegates to the convention are Irish sympathizers," said MT. Brady, who asserted that support to the resolu- ton had been pledged by large majority.

 LONDON. June 10.-A resumption
 work in the British coal mines onday. June 20. it is generally as-

 This assumption is said to be based n the belief that there will not be ~o-thirds majority in favor of a continuance of the strike
 The cessation of work in the mines as lasted 10 weeks and the funds the miners are exhausted; and 1t s asserted. although the terms the nine owners have proposed do not meet the workers demands, they are . considerable advance on anything nreviously offered. The ballot will include the question of a national pool. for which the men up to the present have been firmly in favor. The view outside the ranks of the miners. however. Is almost universal that such a pool would prove im- practicable under existing circum- stances and the belief is expressed 1hs< it no longer will be allowed to stand n the way of a settlement of he controversy Both sides are said So 1a 6re4 of the struggle.

MARTINS RETRIEVE EXPECTED ID PROVE
 0F SHORT DURATION

Nichan Martin, who was snatch~d from the jaws of death by habeas corpus proceedings the night before the day on which he was sentenced to be hanged for the murder of Ar thur De steunder, may find his life prolonged for but a brief space of time.
 It is believed that the attorney generals office contemplates court action that will not delay the case as indefinitely as counsel for Martin planned
 This was the consensus of opinion at the state house yesterday. where the matter was discussed from every angle Representatives of the attor- ney generals office and special counsel have held lengthy conferences as to the course to toIlbw. It is un- derstood that Thursday nights con ference ended early Friday morning to be taken up again later in the day. Last night the matter was still under consideration.
 It was rumored that the supreme court will cite Superintendent Ryn- ming of the prison to appear and ex- plain why he had not carried out the mandate of the court to hang Martin at daybreak yesterday despite the ha beas corpus proceedings- It was held that an action of lower court should not have been considered in face oi the order of the higher court The court. however. had not cited Ryn- ming when it adjourned at o'clock. | The famous Zach Booth case wal recalled. when an eleventh hour at tempt was made to save the life o the murderer on grounds similar ts those in the present case. The mat. ter was being argued in court wher A. C. Baker. present justice of ths supreme court. who prosecuted Booth called his counsel's attention to tn, fact that while the case was befnl argued In court the convicted mar was being hanged in the court hous, plaza All the court had to do was {. look out of the window to see tha the prosecuting attorney was righ and that the sheriff was carrying ou the order of the court.
 If Martin is hanged he will be tn first white man to pay the life pen aity at Florence. There have beei other hangings. but those who hay paid the price for taking a life hay been Mexicans. There are two Mex jeans who have been condemned t death. and it 10 believed that 1T tn supreme court upholds the decisio of the superior court in their case. they too win bring habeas corpu proceedings yon one ground on an other-
