IN IRISH SITUATION: TO
 RESUME FARLEY Lloyd George Said to Have Definite Propositions to
 Present to De Valera ULSTER IS S TILL OUT Sir James Craig Returns to Belfast; Outcome of Meet
 ings Remains Mystery
ULSTER IS STILL OUT

LONDON, July 19.-Rv the Asso. ciated Press)-Events which had ap- parently been proceeding smoothly and with fair rapidity toward a con- mon ground upon which the British government, the Irish republicans and the Ulsterites could find a basis for a settlement of the troubles in Ireland, have fallen into a lull, and negotiations. official and private, have ceased.
 With Sir James Craig, the Ulster fore his departure from London de- livered a pronouncement which seem ed to spell the end of discussions be- tween the three parties, the English are trying to figure out what will eventually happen with respect to Ul- ster and more particularly, with re- gard to the whole of Ireland, at the next conference between Lloyd George and de Valera Thursday
 Meanwhile General Jan Christian Shuts, the South African premier may proceed to Belfast as intermedi- ary. and the fact that the Ulster lead CT has declared that his services and those of the officials under him "are available at any moment" leads to a hopeful view that the final word of the Ulsterites has not been spoken.
 Notwithstanding the attitude of Ul- ster as expressed by Premier Craig, the spokesman of the republican del egates today declared that they were "still not unhopeful'' while another Sim Fein representative said:
 Tt is not a question of Belfast be- ing subservient to Dublin, or vice versa, but that both must be subser- vient to Ireland.'
 The King. deeply concerned in the outcome of the Irish discussions, was visited today by the Marquis of Lon- dOnderrv. Ulster Minister of Educa- tion, who, it is understood, gave the kin0 details of the conversations the marquis had with Premier Llova George yesterday. The continued presence of one of the Ulster cabinet in London is considered significant and of good augury.
 Lloyd George is believed to have certain nropositions to present to de Valera at Thursdays meeting, which have been a--3roved by the British cabinet. The republican leader and his colleagues will probably return to Dublin on Friday.

HOUSE FINISHES DISCUSSION
 OF ONTESTED TARIFF DUTIES
Consideration of Perfecting Amendments Fordney Bill is Started Parliamentary Fight Stops Work; Majority
 Accused of Steam Roller Methods by Democrats

WASHINGTON. July 19. - The house finished consideration of con- tested schedules in the Fordney tariff bill today by placing asphalt on the free list and in four of the five para graphs open to separate votes, over ruled the action of it's ways and means committee in framing the measure. Dye control provisions as drawn were in the only section of the five not upset.
 After disposing of the asphalt amendment. which rejected proposed duties ranging from 50 cents to $3 a tons the house began consideration of the numerous 'perfecting" amend ments which the ways and means committee deemed necessary. It raised the proposed duty on dried beans from IA to 1 3-4 cents a pound. and increased the duties on shelled almonds from s to 12 cents a pound and shelled walnuts from to 1-2 cents a pound in rapid order
 The business of ''perfecting" the bill then was stopped by a long par liamentary fight. It was recurrence of the controversy Of yesterday rang ing about claims of the Democrats that the Republican members of the ways and means committee had not allowed the minority to pass on the amendments before they were offer ed

AGAIN SEEK TO
 SAVE MURDERER

PHOENIX. July f9.- Stephen Alb bey, of Florence, counsel for Nichan Martin. who is sentenced to be hang ed in the state prison at Florence on September 9 tor the murder of Ar thur de Steunder, today announced that he had applied to the supreme court of the United States for a writ of error to prevent the execution. He said that his application for the writ alleged that the federal constitution was violated because Martin was hot granted a speedy trial.
 Abbey said he expected action on his application early in August. He said that if this step should fail to save Martins life, he had other things up his sleeve to prevent the hanging"
 Martin was taken into the superior court of Yavapai county and re-sen- fenced to death recently after the Ari ona supreme court had granted a writ of Certiorari sought by the state after Martin had instituted habeas corpus proceedings the day before he was sentenced to be hanged. At that time Martins attorneys asked the superior court to set the date of the sible because they planned to carry the case to the United States SUI preme court. but they did not indi. cate on what grounds the appeal would be based.

amendments could be offered The decision was Immediately appealed by Representative Garner, Republi- the action. CampbelPs action allow ed the house to proceed on some 60 odd 'perfecting' amendments.
 The Democratic side took advan- tage of the time offered for discus sion of the amendments to deliver denunciatory speeches. Several times they were thwarted by Republican points of order that they were not discussing the amendment under cor sideratiOn. Their objections were sustained without exception.
 Several Democrats pressed Chair man Fordney of the ways and means committee for a statement as to when they would be permitted to of fer amendments. When the demands became insistent he shouted:
 Just as soon as the Democrats get control of the house, they can amend the tariff They cant do it here"
 The Democratic fight embraced a wide range with little or no response from the Republican side except from Fordney, but charges that the tariff bill was drawn in the interest of "the trusts" kept cropping out continually. Steel, aluminium and dye. and several other trusts" were picked out as beneficiaries of the bill. but Fordney contended none would derive more protection than the smallest infant industry"

Congress Is Asked To Investigate
 Charges Against Reserue System

WASHINGTON, July 19. ' Gov ernor Harding. of the federal reserve board, with the approval of Secretary Mellon, has asked congress to inves- tigate the operations of the board and the reserve system, and Chairman McFadden, of the house banking and currency committee, today introduc- ed a resolution to carry out Ise re- quest.
 The investigation proposed would embrace every detail of the activities of the board, it's F banks and it's branch banks over the perioG of de- flation," or about the last Is months, according to McFadden. He said, if the house approved of his program. he would tackle the job immediately, taking in what he described as ''a mass of charges and accusations Of discriminations coming mostly from the south and west"
 There have been numberless at tacks on the board and the banks, he said Tt is my idea that if there is truth in them appropriate legisla- tion should follow and if they are groundless then the board most cer- tainly is entitled to a clean bill"

Shows How Expenditures can be Reduced ll2 Millions
 in Report to Harding
EXPLAINS HIS THEORY
Completion of Reports Taken by Budget Chief to Prove
 Increased Efficiency

WASHINGTON, July 19. - An es- timated saving of $112512,62S can be affected in the appropriations of ap- proximately $4000, 100000 available for government expenditures during the current fiscal year, President Harding was informed today by Di- rector of Budget Dawes. Included in the estimate, Director Dawes said was S22,S22.113, pertaining to continu- ous appropriations for building and construction which would be postpon- ed for expenditure in future years.
 The estimate of government econo- my possible during the present fiscal year was contained in a letter direct ed to the president by Director Dawes who presented the amounts by which expenditures could be reduced m the departments and independent estab- lishments.
 Survey of possible economies was begun a few weeks ago by Director Dawes, using the budget machinery. after a meeting at which department heads and bureau chiefs had been di- rected to reduce expenditures.
 Whatever may be the relation of total expenditure to total revenues at the end of the current year." the di- rector wrote, (which for various req sons, including possible new legisla- tion, the operations of the shipping board, the railroad administration and fluctuation in current receipts of the postoffice department, cannot be pre- dicted at this time, the above amour. is that much of a contribution to a more favorable relation.
 This fine response to your request from the heads of departments and in dependent organizations and bureau chiefs infers the existence in their minds of three principles involving improvement in governmental busi- ness.
 First, that the business organ,za- tion of government hereafter assumes that minimum amount of money to be expended in any fiscaf year is not of necessity, the sum appropriated in advance by congress, but the small est amount upon which the business of the government can be efficiently administered under the program out lined by congress.
 Second, that the minds of the bus mess administrators of government have been diverted by the too easy reliance on the custom of deficiency appropriations.
 Third, that congress has nircc~cq the expenditures of certain sums for specific purposes, an executive pres

ARMY OFFICER IS ACCUSED IF GETTING MONEY Mother of Stacker Says Big Sum Given Maj. Campbell
 For Sons Release CHARGE INVESTIGATED Woman Tells Committee She Gave Money to Grover;
 Says Major Got It
CHARGE INVESTIGATED

WASHINGTON, July 19. - The di- rect charge that s50O0 was paid to Major Bruce R. Campbell, an officer of the army, for use among 'the high CT ups" to obtain the release of Grov- CT c. Bergdoll, her stacker son. was made today by Mrs. Emma c. Berg doll, of Philadelphia, to a house inves- tigating committee.
 The committee developed that on February 10. 1920. about 10 days after Mrs. Bergdoll swore the money was paid, Campbell deposited S4,5O0 with Washermann Brothers, members of the New York Stock Exchange. and $2,O00 more on March 8. all of which anu more was wiped out by the end of June in market trading The mon- ey was deposited to the joint account of the major and Laura E. Campbell, supposedly his wife.
 Major Campbell, who served over seas with the Rainbow division, and who was Bergdoll's counsel in court martial proceedings, was not present. He previously had testified that he did not get one dollar of the Berg doll money. At the direction of the committee the war department has ordered him there from Camp Pike. Arkansas, to answer the charges.
 Called back to testify after govern ment agents had picked up the Camp bell clue in a renewed effort to fix responsibility for. Bergdoll's escape while searching for a buried tub of gold, Mrs. Borgdoll stood firmly on her constitutional rights and refused to answer questions, but when assur- ed of immunity from prosecution. she began her story. declaring Camp bell first demanded $100.000.
 'I told him to go to he'll" she ex- claimed He had tortured me into believing that my boy would be shot unless the higher-ups were paid"
 Questioned by John H. Sherburne, of Boston, committee counsel, Mrs. Bergdoll told how she had taken the money to Governors Island, turned it over to Grover. who met the major and delivered it. Later, she swore Campbell told her he had received the money, but that under the law he could keep no part of it for himself. and had given it to an officer whose name she could not remember It was her understanding, she testified, that it was to go eventually to a mem. Der of the court trying her son for evading the draft.
 Mrs Bergdoll said she had not told the committee of the transaction be. fore because she had forgotten it Grover, she added. recently had urg' ed her to tell of it.
 Have you still got that $15O.--5 in gold buried?" she was asked.
 ''I refuse to answer" Mrs. Berg. doll snapped.
 Presenting a stack of big ledger sheets, Joseph F. Haulahan. book keeper for Washermann Brothers told the committee the record show cd that Campbell had an account with the firm in 1919. which had been closed prior to reopening the larger one in 1920. Of the S7,50O placed with the firm last year all was wiped out with $415 still due by Campbell.
