Importance" says a statement issued to-
day by the authorities In Dublin Castle.
The statement adds:
with the doubtful exception of the
convention Of 1s17-1s18, which was held
at a time when the authority of Red
mond (the late John E. Redmond. presi-
dent of the United Irish League) to
speak on behalf Of the majority Of south
ern Irishmen already was seriously chal-
lenged. this Is the first occasion In mod
ern history In which duly accredited
representatives of North and South Ire
land met of their own initiative without
the intervention of British statesmen to
discuss the the differences so long divid-
ing the two sections of the Irish people.
And although neither Sir James nor Mr..
de Valera appears to have emerged from
the interview with their convictions In
any degree shaken, the fact of their
having entered into direct negotiations
produced an impression in the minds of
men Of all parties of materially improved
prospects for peace"
Unless the unexpected happens to-
morrow, the date for the nomination OF
candidates for seats in the Southern Par
Lament, there will be no contest and ap-
parently no one except persons in favor

SOVIET RECOGNITION
British Court of Appeals Re-
verses Finding in Case Of
Confiscated Goods.

LONDON. May 12--The initial Judicial
decision affected by the British Govern
ment's tacit recognition of the Soviet
Government as the do facto Government
of Russia was rendered this afternoon
when the Court of Appeal reversed a
previous finding of the high court In the
disputed ownership of a quantity OF
veneer and other wood material shipped
from Russia under a contract made by
Leonid Krassine. the Soviet trade COM
missary.
fAt the time the Anglo-Soviet trade
agreement was signed it was said Brit
ish trade would await the decision In
this case before embarking in extensive
trade with Russia, as upon this test
case depended the rightful ownership or
goods exported from Russia.l
The goods concerned had been con-
fiscated by the Soviet Government In
1919. and were sold to firm OF British
importers last August. The British
courts found the original owners entitled
to the goods. as the Soviet Government
Government and consequently had not
the right of confiscation.
The Court of Appeal found, however,
that since the Soviet Government had
been recognized as the de facto Govern
ment of Russia. 1t was not within the
jurisdiction of the British courts to con-
sidsr the justice or morality of the con-
fiscatory order, although such prfnct-

chased from America 10000 pairs of
boots, besides coal and 1900 tons OF
rope. He noted the Importance to
America that England should not get
control of Russian naphtha.
I The United States, said Krassine. had
not yet begun real negotiations with the

The stability of Chancellor Wirth's
Ministry of Fulfilment" depends for the
present on the solution Of the Upper
SiIesian question. DIR. Gustav Stresse-
man, leader Of the industrial party, now
announces that the reason for his re-
fusal to join the Ministry lay in the
failure to obtain satisfactory guarantees
from the Allies that German rights In
the Sllesian plebiscite would be safe
guarded.
This explanation by DR.. Stresseman
does two things. 1t gives an acceptable
reason for business interests evading
responsibility in connection With signing
the allied terms. and 1t serves as we'll to
provide an equally good reason, in case
of an Upper Silesian settlement. for the
same business interests reJoining the
Cabinet and helping fulhl what they
declined to sign.
The Importance of extending the
Cabinet is admitted on all sides, and
there are hopeful voices now that finally
the Ministry. commanding an actual ma
jority in the Reichstag and combining
the chief business and labor representa-
tives, will usher in an era of real par
liamentary activity. But for the time
being. the Wirth Cabinet Is generally
measured as being very weak.

ONLY RAILROAD
BUILDING BEING
DOVE IN KANSAS
Southwestern Part of State
Sees Only Active Con-
struCtion in Nation; 400
Miles to Be Spawned.
(By The Associated Press.)

Wichita, Kans., Dec. 22.-The
only railroads now being built in
the United States are two in num-
Der and both are in southwestern
Kansas, according to the man VINO
is building them, O. p. Byers.
They are the Kansas and Oklaho-
ma, a 225 mile line from FOrgan,
Okla, just across the Kansas line,
to Liberal, Kans., and thence west
Baca and Las Animas, Colo, with
Trinidad as the ultimate objective;
and the Wichita Northwest, eX-
tending 144 miles across three
counties, from Pratt to Kinsley and
Larned, which Is completing a thir-
teen mile stretch from north of
Larned to La Crosse where it will
have connection with the Missouri
Pacific railroad. Trains have been
operating on this road for several
years, although the project is far
from completed,
"As far as / have been able to
find out, or as shown by the records
of the interstate commerce COM
mission in Washington, these are
the only lines under construction
now, in the United States said Mr.
Byers, who is president, general
manager and construction superin-
tendent Of both companies.
Construction Of the Kansas and
Oklahoma out of Liberal will con-
tinue all winter, weather permit
ting, Mr.. Byers said. This month
an entire trainload of steel rails
arrived and more than $4,000 ties
are piled at intervals along the right
of way.
Mr.. Byers IS type of railroad
man of the "old school," His ex-
perience dates back more than
forty years when he worked as a
laborer on the old Kansas and Pa
cific--now the Union Pacific line
through this state. He was a SUI
perintendent of construction on the
Rock Island across Kansas to Dali
las, Texas, in the middle SOS. He
built the Hutchinson and Southern
from Hutchinson, Kans., to
Blackwell, Okla, now part Of the
Santa ITe system.
The counties through which the
Byers lines run, are heavy pro-
ducers of wheat, in production OF
which crop Kansas leads the world,
according to a report issued by the
state board of agriculture. The
Byers lines are financed by the peo-
pie they serve, rather than by rail
bonds marketed in money centers.
Towns and townships through
which they pass vote their proper
Tomato amounts.

WHEN AUTO Goes
!. OVER HIGH WALL

Phoenix, Ariz., Dec. 22.-Hiram
Phillips of st, Louis, consulting
engineer on the new 100000 wa
ter system here, was instantly
killed. Mrs. Phillips was severely
injured and l.. B. Hitchcock, city
engineer, was badly bruised when
an automobile in which they were
riding plunged over a six-foot
retaining wall on the Verde high
way, n hirty-five miles northeast of

The two engineers, accompanied
by Mrs. Phillips, left here this
morning in an automobile driven
by Hitchcock to make the final in
spection of the new water system
before the water from the Verde
river is turned into the city's
mains.
The party had just passed the
workmen's camp on the Verde

mile of the intake when Hitch
COCK apparently lost control of the
machine and it plunged over the
wall. Mr.. Phillips was crushed
under the car but Mrs. Phillips
anu Hltchcock were thrown par

Mr.. Phillips was credited with
having been one of the first to rec
oognfze the Verde river as the log

new system was done in 1912 and
he has been const1ltino enpinaor ~,
