Gairl0ch, Sept i7.-There Is yet
hope for a peace conference be.
tween representatives OF ireland and
the British government.
Premier Lloyd George. here today.
was understood TO be preparing
reply to the latest note Of Cannon
DeValera In which the Irish leader
explained why he insisted that the
Irish delegates TO such a peace con.
ference should come as representa-.
tives of free nation.
The reply of Lloyd George is ex.
pected to pave the way for further
negotiations; The situation is to be
taken up at a meeting Of the British |
cabinet at Inverness on next Tues
day. II was learned.
The general view In Eeland Is that
the hitch has arisen because both
Mr.. Lloyd George and Mr.. Devalera
and compelled to keep an eye on the
extremists In their respective cabi. |
nets. but that behind both there also I
is strong public opinion In favor of
peace. this feeling being as strong
in England as in Ireland.
From advices received In London,
the Sim Fein leaders were surprised
by the effect of Mr.. Devaleias let.
ter which induced Mr.. Lloyd George
to cancel the proposed conference.
From these advices II would seem
that the Sim Fein leaders in Dub.
lin held the view that their leaders
letter was unfortunately phrased.
and that ii is advisable to make a
attempt to bring about
conference.
II appears to be realized. however,
that some weeks will be lost in the
process of attempting to clarity the
SITUATION. Tnere Is now some TAXI

Premier Lloyd George has not yet
