Bv the Associated Press.
DUBLIN, Oct 3.--It is announced that
the Sim Fein delegates to the London
conference will leave Dublin next Sat-
urday. Ers.Sine Childers. the novelist,
and Finian Lynch. Sim Fein member of
Parliament for South Kerry. have been
appointed secretaries of the conference.
Eamon de Valera will not be one OF
the Sim Fein delegates. according to
Desmond Fitzgerald. the Sim Fein Min
lister Of Propa ganda.
Numerous newspaper writers and pho
.ographers were permitted on Sunday to
visit the camp in the Dublin hills of the
Sixth Battalion of the South Dublin Br-
gade. Republican Army. to witness the
inspection of the troops. Throughout
Ireland drilling and inspections of this
kind have been proceeding since the
| truce was signed.
This battalion ordinarily numbers
about 1000, but 120 of it's members are
at present interned and about 100 are
on leave of absence. The battalion Is
well equipped with arms and furnished
with what is termed efficient incen-
diary services"
The commandant was young man of
Fl years. who fought when 10, in the
Easter rebellion. A formidable class at
revolver practice was observed 1t con-

class weapon. Special attention was
being given to prompttude in firing and
picking up n mark. In the rife class the
men had the latest pattern British army
service rifles, and there was also a
skilled signalling class.
Many of the instructors and men had
served in the British army during the
war. Two machine guns stood on the
ground. and large class was studying
and taking them apart and reassembling
them.
The battalion marched past the Re-
publican headquarters staff and formed
hollow square. The men were ad-
dressed by Chief of Staff Muloahy. He
said that their leaders were negotiating
with the enemy leaders, but at the same
time the enemy's foot was still on Ire
lands throat and they must be prepared

AS soon as the beer bill Is out of the
way the railroad bill will be brought up.
1t is doubtful whether either the allied
refunding bin or the tariff can be
reached at the present session. Secre-
tary OF the Treasury Mellon has been
anxious to get complete authority to re.
fund the $1,000. 100000 debt owed by
the Allies to the United States; but the
measure. which has already been report
ed favorably by the Finance Committee
Is likely to provoke much debate.
The suggestion is made by some SEN
ators that. 1t might not be hospitable to
the visiting delegations to the arma-
ment conference to remind them OF their
nations debts while they are here but
the intention OF leaders is to push the
measure as fast as circumstances will
permit. The tariff bill in all probability
will have to go over until the next ses-
sion, but President Harding in confer
ences with Republican leaders the last
few days has made 1t plain he did no,
look with favor on any effort to delay
the tariff unnecessarily.

LONDON, Oct 3.-The reply Of the
Russian Soviet Government to Great
Britain's recent note charging intrigue
against Great Britain in Central Asia
Is understood to be on its way to London
from Moscow. The note, it is asserted
does not attempt to answer the charges
of the British Government except to as
sert that the evidence secured by the
Government was founded on forgeries
emanating from a notorious German
agency"
The note maintains that various
Soviet officials mentioned by the British
Government hold different posts to those
attributed to them. It asserts that the
Eastern policy of the Soviet has been
uniformly friendly to Great Britain and
that Tashkent is not an anti-British
propaganda centre.
Complaint is made in the note that
Great Britain has shown herself un-
friendly to the Soviet. Instances are
recorded of arrests made by Brig.-Gen.
Harrington. commander of the British
forces in Constantinople.
The note states emphatically that the
Soviet Government has had no dealings
with the British Indian revolutionists
since the signing of the trade agreement.

Washington. ID. c., Oct. 3.
Senator Hitchcock (Neb.), ranking
Democratic member of the Foreign Re-
lations Committee and leader of the
fight in the Senate last year in behalf
Of the League of Nations, has been in
vited to confer with Woodrow Wilson at
his home here. The Senator said he
would call on Mr. Wilson within day
or two.
News Of the impending conference be-
tween the two champions Of the league
was regarded generally as confirmation
Of the reports that Mr.. Wilson is taking
keen interest in the peace treaty con-
troversy and that he Is not unwilling to
use his influence in the framing Of the
policy which will guide the Democrats
in the fight against ratification.
Senator Hitchcock favors ratification.
but he probably will not hesitate to sup
port reservations which the Democratic
Senator'S are planning to offer for the
preserving of their allegiance to VIII
sonian doctrines In foreign affairs.
On the heels OF constantly recurring
reports of Mr.. Wilson's participation In
the treaty contest came information that
William J. Bryan has been exerting his
influence in behalf Of prompt ratifice-
ton, and that he has succeeded In win
ming several Democratic Senator's to his
view. Mr.. Bryan believes the treaty
issue was one OF the chief causes of
Democratic disaster in the election last
year, and he Is urging his late follow
ers to get rid of 1t at the earliest pos
sible date.
Canvass of the Senate by THE New
Y!RK HERALD to-day indicated that
probably not more than twenty votes
will be registered against ratification of
the treaty of peace with Germany. 1t
will be ratified by safe margin despite
the fact that a two-thirds vote Is re-
quired.
The Democrats. according to the can
vass, will cast all but two or three of
the votes against the treaty. Seventeen
Democratic Senators are counted against
1t. They are:
Ashurst (Ariz.) Overman IN. c.
Caraway (Ark) Reed (Mo.)
Culberson (Tex.) Sheppard (Tex)
Glass (Va.) Smith Is. CO.
Harris (Ga.) STANLEY N.Y.
Harrison (Miss.) Swanson (Va.)
Helm (Ala.) Watson (Ga.)
King (Utah) Williams miss
McKellar (Tenn.)
Seven Democrats who favor the treaty
are:
Dial Is. c. Underwood (Alao
Fletcher (Fla.) pomcrene (Ohio)
Hitchcock (Neb) Walsh (Mon)
Trammell (Fla)
Twelve may be listed as non-commit-
tai. although majority of them are
likely TO support the treaty unless some
unexpected pressure is brought to bear
on them. They are:
Broussard (La.) Pittman (Nev)
Gerry Or. ~ Ransdell Ua)
Jones IN. NJ Robinson (Ark.)
Kendrick (Wyo.) Shields (Tenn.)
Myers (Mon.) Simmons IN. CO.
Owens (Okia.) Walsh (Mass.)

nance as the motion picture Dusi-
ness, In, its ranks are men who
have -quickly-as time is reckoned
risen from humble posts to places
of power and affluence. This is
due not so much to the big profits
as to the tremendous following
which motion pictures have SO
RAPIDLY drawn to themselves, re-

One Of the most Interesting OF
these motion picture rOmances OF

managing director Of the new Fort

Chicago and Rock Island resident,
will in future make Rock Island
mere. his headquarters than ever.
He has for years been q great be-
