DUBLIN, Aug. 1.-Free State
troops in the drive southwark on
Cork have captured Tipperary and
kilkee, 1t was announced today.
Four regulars were killed in ac-

Large quantities OF war materials

The irregulars. before being
driven from Tipperary, blew up the
water mains and burned the bar
racks. They also set the torch to
the biggest industrial plant in the
city.
At Kilkee the irregulars burned
the barracks and the customs sta.
ton.
Irregulars are said to control
nearly all Of Munster. They are
levying taxes and comma ndeering
food supplies.
Cork Is described as undergoing a
reign OF terror. Newspapers have
been suppressed, and the rebels

said to be losing his sway, but was
attempting to regain It by displays
OF valor in leading ambush attacks
on Free State troops.
Practically all these attacks failed
and the irregulars have been com.
PEELED to make one retreat after an.
other, destroying the countryside g

When they think OF 1t, they could
almost wish that the railroad strike
would keep on. They wish in the
meantime, however. to observe as
follows:
They had been led to believe that
the public wanted competition in
the coal industry. Well. It has 1t.
It has II in the bituminous part OF
the coal industry, which is the
Overwhelmingly big part.
In the bituminous part of the
industry, they point out, there is
full competition. No inquiry has
revealed any monopoly in II. On
the contrary. every inquiry has re-
vealed too many mines, too many
miners, too many coal operators, too
much competition.
But what is the result Of this
competition? The operators wish
to point out that the result Of II
is that sometimes the price goes
down so low that It cuts out all
profits and sometimes It goes up so
And they wish TO inquire:
II the Government In going to
take off their profits from them

to make up their deficits to them at

II ID SAID thAt
there are WILLIAM HARD
many mines in the coal industry
and something must be done to pre-
vent the coal industry from having
too many mines. The coal operators
point out that there are also too
many textile mills in the textile In.
dustry and too many watch fac
tories In the watch industry and too
many blast furnaces in the steel in
dustry. II all the blast furnaces in
this country worked all the time. the
amount of pig iron produced in this
country would every year provide
this country with enough pig iron
for q couple Of years. The coal op'
orators would, therefore. like also to
see a pig iron commission.
j. u. A. Morrow, secretary OF the
National Coal association, points out
that there 10 one prime reason for
the excess number of mines. This Ia
that too many farmers have coal
underlying their farms. The num-
Der OF farmers whose farms contain
seams OF coal 10 horrible. And every
year they let a lot OF these seams
get opened up. There are too many

owning these seams. They dig down
into them and start the coal out.

Morrow. in one OF his best ironic
moods, rs to have a Federal in

Harvard CreW Is FAVORED;
Wait for Navy on Hudson
Yales Slow Time Trial Brings Out More Crimson
Money-Rowing Sharps at Poughkeepsie Want
to See Midshipmen Before Predicting.
BY DANIEL.

With the Harvard-Yale regatta at
New London set for Friday. and the
big six crew classic of the intercollegiate
Rowing Association at Poughkeepsfe
carded for Monday, the next few days
will see the climax of one of the great
est seasons In the history of the sport.
Following the report yesterday, that the
Yale crew had done no better than 22
minutes and 20 seconds in a time trial
over the four mile course. under fair
conditions. there was quite a bit of
Harvard money In sight. at to 2.
However. 1t will be recollected that
several years ago Harvard eight
which was slow in its time tests, beat
a Yale crew. which had shaved the
course record In trial. So trials are
poor indices to what may come to pass
In the heat of battle.
The situation at Poughkeepsie Is more
complicated than ever before. Not one
of the six crews comedies anything to
its rivals. When the Navys great
eight won so easily over Princeton and
Harvard on the Charles-leading the
Tigers by six lengths in a two mile
race-there was an impression that the
season would not develop even an ap-
proach to the combination from
Annapolis. However. this morning
than the Navy up there on the High
land course. and Washington also has
it's admirers. Columbia and Pennsyl-
vania arc counted in too. and even
Syracuse has a chance.
Await Navy Eagerly.
Rowing sharps are waiting for the
Navy to show on the. Hudson. They
want to see the midshipmen go over the
course in time trial before they make
any prediction There are all sorts of
yarns afloat about the midshipmen.
Some have it that after the victory
over Pennsylvania, in the American
Henley. the Navy went stale. and that
Dick Glendon has been having quite
a time getting 1t back into shape. Others
have heard from Annapolis" that the
Navy is right on edge. in even better
condition than 1t was at this stage last
year. The midshipmen will arrive on
the river to-day. and should be seen In
speed trial by Friday.
Columbia is coming along fairly well.
