WITH HARDING STAND
IN MIND, LEADERS TO
DISCUSS PROCEDURE
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, June Is. - With
President Harding represented as
strongly of the opinion that the tariff
bill should not be put aside, senator
Republicans will hold party confer
ence next Monday to consider pro-
ceedure with respect to that measure
and the pending soldiers bonus bill.
The call for the conference was
issued late yesterday by Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, the Republi-
can leader, after he had conferred with
President Harding and many Republi-
can senators on the situation. Pre-
dictions of bitter fight in the sen-
ate next week followed the informal
discussions and the announcement by
Chairman McCumber of the senate
finance committee that regardless Of
what recommendations the Republican
conference should make he would
move early next week, probably Mon
day to lay aside the tariff bill and pro-
ceed with he bonus measure.
The president in his conference with
Senator Lodge yesterday was repre-
sented as holding the opinion that not
only the tariff bill should be disposed
of, but following that, the administra.
ton ship subsidy bill also should be
given senate right-of-way before con-
sideration of the bonus measure.

DISCUSS DRAFT OF
IRISH CONSTITUTION
(By Associated Press)

LONDON, June e16.-Commenting on
the draft of the Irish constitution, the
Times expresses the belief that If the
governments opinion that the con-
stitution conforms with the Anglo
Irish treaty is justified, one of the
most serious obstacles in the path to
Irish peace will have been successfully
surmounted
The Daily Chronicle thinks that a
very. thin safeguard, indeed, is pro-
vided for the Protestant minority"
Says the Daily News: Nobody
who is honestly willing to see auton-
omy granted Ireland can we'll quarrel
with the terms of the constitution.
The general principles laid down are
wholly admirable"
The Morning Post, irreconciliable
as ever, comments: When the whole
framework and foundation of the busi-
ness is gross mockery we need hardly
scrutinize the provisions of consti-
tuition which like the treaty, is lie
and deception in its very nature"

WASHINGTON, June 16. - The
Blair-Dover controversy in the treas
ury threatened to break out afresh to-
day when it became known that Pc
tition had been circulated among Re-
publican members of congress asking
President Harding to uphold the poll
cies of Mr.. Dover.
The petition, it was learned today.

Charges in statement circulated

troversy in the treasury that the posi-
ton in the treasury department were
held by Democrats were declared by
Secretary Mellon in formal state
ment today to be so false and for
the most part so ridiculous" as or.
dinarily not to require notice.
The statement made its appearance
today at the same time it became
known that $50 members had signed
memorial to the president praising
the assistant secretary. Dover of the
treasury was further declared by Mr.
Mellon to be "the product of few

INDIANA OPERATORS
OUT OF INTERSTATE
MINE WAGE PARLEY
CBy Associated Press)

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, June 10
Coal mine operators in Indiana are no
longer willing to enter into an inter
state joint wage conference with the
miners and will now deal only with
the miners of this state in effecting
strike settlement, spokesmen for the
operators reiterated today. Declara-
tion of the intention to hold out for
settlement by state agreement was
contained in a statement issued last
night by the policy committee OF the
Indiana Bituminous Coal Operators
association. Similar action was taken
recently by the Illinois operators.
"It is apparent that the interstate
conference plan with the operators
and national union of miners has been
completely disrupted" said the 1ndi-
ana operators statement, "and there
is no possibility of its being re-estab-
llished to meet the present emergency
and any further attempts in this di-
rection create only confusion, false
hopes, prolong the strike and delay
the acceptance of other plans of ne
gotiation between the miners and the
operators.
The statement predicts that Indi-
ana miners will soon meet with the
state operators in a wage conference,
and adds that the miners are now on
strike "only because they cannot Sc
cure the kind of conferences they de-
mand and one that it is utterly i'm
possible to obtain because eastern op-
orators refuse to meet with them"
Representatives of operators Of 20
wagon mines in Vigo, Clay and Yer
million counties planned today to
press for court action against groups
Of men who are alleged to have Wis
tied these mines during the past week
and interfered with non-union miners
who have been working. Disorders
have been reported from several OF
the mines.

CHILEAN MINISTER'S
CALL UPON HUGHES
MAY NOT CLEAR AIR
fRv Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, June 16.-The Chill
ean-Peruvian conference here again
lapsed into a period of uncertainty to-
day, just at the moment when success
had seemed almost within reach.
Acting as the agent of the Chilean
delegates, Chilean Ambassador Math-
leu had an appointment at noon to lay
the situation before Secretary Hughes
but previous indications that the visit
would lead to a move to resume the
negotiations under American guidance
had been somewhat clouded by the
developments of the past "a hours. At
the same time there were intimations
that other unexpected elements would
find their way into the negotiations in
the very near future to still further
complicate an already badly-tangled
diplomatic situation. In some quarters
it was limited an entirely new face
must be put upon the whole situation
before the end of the day.
Cause of Hitch.
The apparent hitch which resulted
in postponement of Ambassador Math-
ieu's state department call from yes
terday to today and which led the
Chilean delegation to cancel plans for
laying their side before the public in

there were indications that the an
nouncement made in Santiago by For
eign Minister Jarpa and the reply is.

the Peruvian delegation had proved
something of a bombshell to those
who hoped for an early agreement.
DR.. Porras' assertion that the Chill

tiations, and his declaration that the

bated point of plebiscite in Tacna.
africa, aroused much speculation as fo
just what basis for resumption of the
| discussions could possibly be agreed
upon after SO pointed a public ex
change.
At the state department there was
every indication that Secretary Hughes
was willing to be of whatever sue
cess he thought practicable, although
at the same time it was suggested that
he obviously would not care TO un
der take the impossible. There was
i every sign that he would make no di
rect or formal move until he was con
vfnced that the temper of both sides
was such as to welcome it.

AT SALE
OF LIQUOR ON
SHIPS is LOST
Reject Amendment to Ship
Subsidy Bill Providing No
Aid Allowed Vessels Carry
ing Intoxicants.
OTHER proposal LEFT
nv Associated Press>

WASHINGTON, June 16.-Without
a record vote, the house merchant
marine committee today rejected the
Bankhead amendment to the ship sub
sidy bill providing that no govern.
ment aid should be allowed ships on
which liquor is sold.
The Edmonds proposal, which would
extend the Volstead law to the sea by
filming of ships OF any registry touch
ing American ports on which liquor
selling was permitted, was not acted
on, and the committee asked that it
be reported by a straight party vote.
The latter proposal, offered as
substitute for the first amendment
presented by Representative Bank
head, Democrat, Alabama, and dis
cussed Informally by the committee
yesterday, would have the effect of
putting American ships on a parity
with those Of other nations which do
not have prohibition.
Prohibits Entrance
In addition to providing fine of
$4,000 for the first and second Of
fense the final penalty would be to
prohibit the entrance of ship to
American ports. After the proposal
was discussed by majority committee
men yesterday the view was expressed
in some quarters that it conflicted
with many of the nations commercial
treaties.
Meanwhile in the executive branch
although officials were understood to
be still discussing the question today
there had been no developments be-
yond the indication at the treasury de-
partment that Attorney General
Daugherty might be asked soon for a
ruling ON the legality of liquor selling
on American ships. In this connec-
ton, Mr.. Daugherty said that if such
a request was made 1t would be acted
on as speedily as possible.

POLITICAL TRUCE IN
IRELAND BREAKING UP
(Ry Associated Pressl

LONDON, June 16.-The Dublin
correspondent of the Daily Mail de-
clares the political truce agreed upon
by Michael Collins and Eamon DeVal-
era is breaking up. He cites as proof
of this the speech made by Mr.. Col
Inns in Cork Wednesday night when
he prefaced his remarks by saying:
Il am not hampered by being on q
platform where there are coalition
ists," and finished by insisting that
the country must have the reforms 1t
wants.
The correspondent also quotes De
Valera as saying in his speech at
Cashel, Tipperary that the Republican
party had agreed to lay aside for the
moment its claim to an Irish republic.
The writer expresses the belief that
DeValera is awaiting the results of to.
days election to decide his policy.

from Ireland is being resumed

MONARCHIST COUP
PENDING IN GERMANY,
SENSATIONAL REPORT
(By Associated Press)

BERLIN, June 16.-The independ-
ent Socialist newspaper Die Freiheit
features a sensational communication
from "a we'll informed source" an
nouncing that q pan-German "putsch"
is impending.
The writer states that the various
military parades, such as the Von-
Hindenburg celebrations, which have
been going on throughout Germany re-
Gently, were not merely theatrical dis
plays, but serious preparations for a
monarchist coup d etat, which, he
says, is to be preceded by sort of
st. Bartholomew night in which all
persons whose names are entered on
a special blacklist will be given short
shrift. The writer declares the min
istry of defense and the police are
implicated in the movement.
Resolutions warning against prob
able demonstrations against the re-
public, set for June %, were adopted
yesterday by the directorate of the
majority of the Socialist party, the So
cialist Vorwaerts announces.
The resolutions say the NationiltsI
associations with German officers and
ex-soldiers are reported as intending
to hold demonstrations throughout the
country on June %, the anniversary
of the signing of the treaty of Yer
sailles. The demonstrations, it is de
clared, always have degenerated into
militaristic and monarchistic displays
and on this occasion they probably
will be exploited for the purpose OF
wild agitation against the republic
The directorate therefore recommends
that the Socialist party be on guard
and call meetings where such are
needed in this connection.

VOTERS OF SOUTH
IRELAND ELECTING
irish PARLIAMENT
(By Associated Press)

DUBLIN, June 16.-The voters of
southern Ireland went to the polls to-
day to elect an Irish parliament as
provided under the terms of the Anglo
Irish treaty.
Under the recent agreement be-
tween the factions favoring and op-
posing the treaty, e. coalition panel OF
candidates was presented to the peo-
pie, apportioning representation in
the parliament at approximately the
same ratio as shown in past tests of
strength in the Dali Eireann.
A number of independents, how
ever, have entered the field in an at
tempt to overturn the panel on the
treaty issue, and it was on this phase
of the struggle that interest mainly
centered as the polling began.
Estimates were that at least Is Of
the Independents would be successful
with the anti-treaty party losing 10
and the pro-treatyites five seats.
Publication last night of the terms
of the draft of the Irish constitution
on which the new parliament must
pass was not expected to influence the
vote. The comment of the Dublin
morning papers is mostly favorable 70

LABOR And VETERANS

DECLARES NJ NIDER
CBy Associated Press)

CINCINNATI, June 16.-"OrgantZed
labor and organized veterans Of the
World war have as common enemies
those who seek to tear down the in
tegrity of America" declared Hanford
MacNider, commander of the Ameri-
can Legion, addressing the American
Federation Of Labor convention here
today. . ....
All committees Of the convention
were at work on resolutions calling
for action by the delegates. President
Samuel Gompers called the roll of
the committees, but found few ready
with reports, and none indicated an
early report on any of the more i'm
portant public questions that were
under consideration.
The executive council Of the fedora
tion also held meeting for its last
perusal of it's report on the supreme
court decision in the celebrated Coro-
nado coal case, which held labor
unions liable for damages under the
Sherman antitrust law. The council
decided to propose no program for
overcoming the decision, leaving this
question for special policy commit
| tee which is considering a congress
/ sional veto of the courts decision.
| Members of the council indicated
that their report complained that in
| the Coronado case, the court ventured
an opinion in IAN imaginary case,
resulting in a blow at the fundamental
principles of labor unions. The de-
cision was said to subject unincor-
porated unions to greater liability
than interpretations, organized solely
| for profit. Further, it was held by the
council that the decision had nullified
the Clayton act provision exempting
labor organizations from prosecution
under the antitrust laws and that it
placed a strained construction on the
term associations" as used in the
! Sherman law.
