DALI EIREANN REPLY
TO PREMIER READY
Derry Delegation Opposes
Any Partition of ireland.
BIZ the Associated Press

DUBLIN. Sept. 11.-There was little
activity to-day at the Mansion House.
where It was believed the Dali Eireann
Cabinet has completed the draft OF the
reply to the latest note from Premier
Lloyd George regarding a settlement
of the Irish question.
A deputation from the city Of Derry
is expected to call upon Eamon de
Valera, the Irish leader. next Tuesday
to express unalterablc opposition TO any
partition OF Ireland. These protests,
which have been accommodating from the
Nationalist minority In Ulster. are con-
sidcred to indicate the determination OF
the Dali negotiators to fight for county
option and to detech as much as possi-
BILE from the area of the Northern ParlIa-
ment. which. on a plcbiscite basis. they
believe could not retain moro than three
counties.
The official view here Is that tho
British Governments pledges to Ulster
will prevent any such concession. The
Dali policy, Il Is indicated. would then
be 10 leave to the Ulster Parliament
all the powers II now has but no more.
1t Is understood that the Ulster con-
tention is that whatever powers are
extended 10 tho South cannot be denied
70 tho North.

ARMS CONFERENCE
HALTS LEGISLATION
Measures Bearing on Foreign

Special Despatch to THE NEW YoRK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. C., Sept. III. J
A tentative decision has been reached
by the Administration to postpone all
legislation and executive action which
may have a bearing upon foreign rela-
tions until the end OF the international
conference on armaments.
This decision will be submitted to
Congressional leaders for their approval
II may include even tariff legislation,
which now seems destined 10 wait until
next spring or later.
Postmaster-Gene.al Hays IN his
speech at Cleveland intinated that the
unsettled condition of economic affairs
made the formulation OF tariff law
difficult at this time. 1t is understood
Mr.. Hays's speech was designed to pre-
rare the public mind for this change in
attitude.
Actions which may be affected in this
way also include the repeal OF Panama
Canal tolls for American ships; en-
forcement on sections % and 81 OF the
Jones merchant marine act, and the
Governments final decision relative to
the foreign debt.
Inc Administrator 3 attitude on sec
tions 2S and 81 OF the Jones act will
have to be made clear within a few
days. The members OF the Shipping
Board are planning to call at the White
House to ask the sections in question be
put in force.
Section 2S OF the Jones bill authorizes
the Interstate Commerce Commission 70
grant specially reduced railroad rates
within continental United States upon
goods brought to American shores in
American bottoms. Section 34 provides
for the granting of specially reduced i'm
port tariff rates on goods brought TO
this country in American ships. Such
action is now prevented BY the existence
of commercial treaties with many coun-
tries which prohibit favoritism OF this
character. 1t will be recalled that Presi-
dent Wilson was asked by Congress to
denounce these treaties. but failed 10 do
so.
it Is believed by many Congressional
leaders these two provisions are the
strongest weapons this Government has
IN building up its merchant marine. 1t
may be that. in view of certain inter-
national agreements that will be reached
at the conference, It will not be advis-
able for the United States to put the pro-
visions into effect.
In any event. the effect OF postpone
rnent at th.= time will be to place the
American merchant marine into the bal
ance as one of the most powerful po-
tential weapons In the hands Of the
American delegates.

Berlin, Sept. IL.
The leader and the most prominent
financier of the German Industrial party
expressed to THE NEW York HERALD
correspondent here to-day complete sat
isfaction at the conclusion Of peace be-
tween the United States and Germany.
DR.. Gustav Streeseman, head Of the In
dustrial party and president Of the Ger
man-American Trade Board. said:
"Public opinion regarded 1t as a con-
tradiction that country with the least
conflicting political interests with Ger
many maintained the longest state Of
war against her. It is difficult to gauge
the scope rightly which the United States
may claim under the Treaty OF Ver-
sailles. The relations between the two
peoples depend upon spirit Of toler-
alton"
Max warburg. head OF a Hamburg
banking house, and who is prominent In
German shipping and financial circles,
said:
1--WE welcome the return Of peace re-
lations and the termination Of the anom-
States. Although the present peace is
not final. nevertheless, I don't doubt
that good will exists on both sides to re-
establish the friendly relations which
existed before 1914.
This involves the prompt conclusion
Of trade agreement and a definite set
tlement of German property held In the
United States. I do not doubt that the
United States will approve the views OF
those who recognize the inviolability of
private property rights. The United
States, looking ahead. will have much
property in foreign lands. and conse-
quently has a large self interest in es-
tablishing tho theory OF its security
This is Of greater value than a few hun
dred millions involved in sequestered
property.
Furthermore, America, with her
millions, Is the worlds gold centre. and
upon assuming the leading position In
the world OF finance. she could not do
better than to show In contrast to Lon
don that even during the war her money
deposits remained secure.
TT is comprehensive that the United
States, before returning private prop
erty. should settle her damage claims
against Germany. But over the final.
wise decision have no uncertainty.
"The Germans welcome the fact that
the United States did not sign the Ver-
sailles treaty, and only sought to Sc
cure certain rights under It. It Is evil
dent that the United States does not
propose to make sacrosanct the whole
series Of paragraphs Of the treaty which
already have proved unworkable. Not
only Germany's but the worlds future
depends upon the reduction Of the ver-
sailles treaty to workable proportions,
which Germany. by making an honor
able effort, can fulfil.
But there is one paragraph which
American influence should seek to
modify. not In Germany's but In the
worlds interest. Central Europe cannot.
on lower living standards. become COM
petitors with other nations without
harming the latter. Creditors cannot
thrive while the debtor bleeds."

u. S. TO ASK FOR ANOTHER
AIRSHIP FROM THE BRITISH
Probably German Dirigible Taken in War Spois
Will Replace English Built ZR-2, Which
Was Recently Destroyed

other countries were not of the same
mind. and therefore they benefited by
the stand of the United States. II Is
said that seven or eight German dirigi-
bles were divided among the Allies.
Great Britain getting three and Japan
one. Four Of the German airships that
were to have been turned over were
destroyed, either Intentionally or unin-
tntionally, while they still were in the
hands OF the Germans.
The proposal for the turning over OF
one of the German airships has not been
put up formally to the British, due TO
the fact that the whole question OF
financial settlement for the ZR-2 has
been delayed until after the burial OF
the dead. The bodies of the Americans
who were lost will reach the United

ish light cruiser Dauntless, and the
funerals will be held a few days later.

NICHOLS DIES IN CHAIR
FOR WOLCHAK MURDER

Guy Nichols OF Trimble, Ohio, "a
years old and veteran of tho world
war. was put to death In the electric
chair at Sing Sing Prison last night
for his part in the murder of Samuel
Wolchak. who was shot to death in his
stationery store in Brooklyn, in March,
1919
Unusual efforts were made by Mich
ols's attorneys and friends to obtain a
reprieve or communication Of sentence for
him. but Gov. Nathan l.. Miller refused
to interfere. The principal ground on
which his lawyers based their request
was the fact that Jesse Walker. who
was put to death for the same crime two
weeks ago. made statement just before
his death exonerating Nichols.
1T would establish a very dangerous
precedent" said the Governor. TO ex-
ercise Executive clemency, either be-
cause of previous reputation or because
the defendant may have been led into
criminal ways by evil associations.
There is an alarming increase In crimes
like the one involved in this case. and
1t must be understood that the Executive
OF the State will not interfere with the
execution OF the law and will not at
tempt to impose a lesser punishment

DRY CITY JUDGE FOR
NEW RUM DICTATOR
II. l.. Hart Of Binghamton In
dorsed by Glynn for State Di-
rector of Prohibition.
OCoNNOR WILL QUIT SOON
Law Enforcement and End Of
Collision Will Be Aim Of Mil
ler's Ally If Appointed.

Harold l.. Hart. City Judge OF Bing-
hamton and Republican leader of Broome
county, will be the next Federal Director
Of Prohibition for New York State. un-
less plans are changed for the appoint
ment of successor to Charles R. O'Con-
nor. Some time ago the Republican
State organization was told 1t could
name the man TO fill this position and 1t
would be held responsible for his admin
istration of the Volstead act in New
York state. 1t was learned yesterday
that Judge Hart had been agreed upon
by the State leaders. and It is understood
he will accept. The salary is $1,000.
Knowing we would be held RESPONSE
Bile for the appointment OF the Prohibi-
ton Director" said George n. Glynn.
State chairman, last night, I'VE have
taken great care TO choose a man who will
fil the bill satisfactorily. Judge Hart Is
a man of great ability. OF standing in the
community and has been reared in the
proper environment. We assume that
the law will be properly enforced and
that no collusion will be permitted.
Chairman Glynn explained that in
speaking of environment he had refer
ence to the fact that Broome, Otsego.
Chenango and other counties in the Con-
gress district were noted for their pro-
hibition sentiment and observance of
"law and order" Binghamton, a city of
almost $4,000 population. was dry before
the Eighteenth Amendment was passed.
having voted SO under local option law.
Judge Hart is a strong Miller man and
his county made an exceptionally good
showing for the Governor on election
day.
Judge Hart is described as possessing
diplomatic ability TO deal with trying
situations as well as the force to bring
things to pass. He is about 36 years
old.
As Mr.. O'Connor. the Democratic di-
rector, has announced his intention of
getting out soon, 1t is probable that
Judge Hart will be appointed within
short time after the HGrding Admins
tration takes hold in Washington.
The selection of Judge Hart will dis
appoint score or more of New York
city applicants for the place. Among
them were John r. Mcneil of Manhattan
and Fred Ahern of Brooklyn.
