GERMANS ARE
AT WORK IN
THAT REGION
Demands Have Been Made
For Increase of Allied
Forces - Important De-
velopments Are Expect
ed Within "a HOurs-Eu-
rope Is Aroused

London, July 20 (By the Associated
Press 1T was stated in authoritative
quarters to-day that informal sugges-
tions have been made for American in
tervention in the upper Silesian trou-
BILE, which it is feared will threaten
open hostilities.
The British government is urging
the immediate convening of the SUI
preme council to consider the complca
tions caused by charges that the Ger
man protective organizations in upper
Silesia are still functioning, constitut-
ing a danger to the allied authority,
which have been followed by demands,
n>>ably from France, that the allied
forces there be increased. Such a meet
ing, however, has been opposed by the
French on the ground that they con-
sidered nothing would result, in which
case the situation would be rendered
materially worse.
There seems gccd reason to believe
that the menace TO European peace
which il is held the Silesian question
presents is the real cause for the post
ponement of further action on the
Irish question and other matters OF
moment.
The Silesfan question, it is stated, is !
causing grave anxiety to all the gov
ernments of Europe.
Important developments in this con
nection are expected within the next |
as hours.
1t is understood in official quarters
that Great Britain considers the dis |
patch of more troops to upper Silesia |
Unnecessary and that all the facts with
regard to Silesia already are available
for the supreme council. AT the same
time il is held to be necessary TO sum-
mon a committee of experts, as has been
suggested, to pass judgment on the
question of the Silesian boundary.

DE VALER4-CRAIG
CONFERENCE POSSIBLE
That Is the Latest Development in the
Irish Situa-
tion.

London, July 20.-The probability
of meeting in Belfast between
Eamonn De Valera and Sir James
Craig, the Ulster premier, is foreshad.
owed in some political quarters and in
several newspapers this morning.
General J. c. Smuts, premier OF
South Africa. who re-entered the ne
gotiations yesterday. doubtless is
largely responsible for this and sim
liar optimistic speculation which has
survived under great difficulties since
Monday, when the Ulster premier de-
parted suddenly for Belfast after max
ing a forceful statement on the sub
ject of self determination as it applied
to Ulster
Mr., De Valera now is reported will
ing to 90 10 Belfast and meet Sir
James after he has discussed with his
Dublin followers certain proposals
which it is understood Premier Lloyd
George will submit TO him Thursday.
The British cabinet to-day will give
special consideration TO the Irish ques.
tion and it is believed that the afore-
mentioned proposals are likely to re-
ceiye the approval of the entire min
istry.
Staunch unionist members of the
British Parliament are reported to be
increasingly nervous respecting the
Progress Of Irish affairs, and II Is
known that about forty of, them met
privately yesterday to discuss their
positions. As they lacked inside knowl-
edge respecting the negotiations, how
ever, they refrained from reaching any
decision as to the action they would
take.

city was to take to carry off the sur
face. water which runs down ravine
from Elm street extension toward Mr..
Corskie's property, whether a l2inch

SICK OF THEIR DEAL,
so THEY PLAYED BALL
Testified Bill Burns, Alleged Accom-
plice in the Baseball
Scandal.

Chicago, July 20.-The indicted Chi
csgo White SoS players, after agreeing
with clique of gamblers to throw the
1919 worlds series TO Cincinnati for
100000 became sick of the deal when
they were not paid the bribes promised
and at meeting before the third game
game decided to play their best and
win the series. Bill Burns, accomplice
in the alleged deal and the states star
witness, testified to-day in the base
ball trial.
Urged by the alleged ''fixers' to win
the third game TO improve the betting
odds, the players said they had lost
for two regular pitchers-Cicotte and
Williams-and would not win for a
"busher," Dick Kerr, Burns said.
Then, feeling they had been crossed
by the gamblers, they double e-crossed
their bribers by telling them they
would lose the thifd game but instead
won it three to nothing with Kerr
pitching. -
Attempts of the state TO have Burns
tell of a conversation with Eddie Ci-
cote in New York, where the state
claims the alleged conspiracy was
formed, failed when Judge Friend sus-
tanned defense objection.
