FIXED
BY REPUBLICANS
LEADERS WILL CONSULT WITH
PRESIDENT HARDING WHEN
HE RETURNS FROM MARION.
MORE CLEARLY DEFINED
AT LODGE DINNER

Washington, July 6.-The legis-
lative program Of the present ses-
sion Of congress was said today by
Republican senators to be some
what more clearly dehned as re-
suit of the dinner conference last
night at the home of Senator Lodge
of Massachusetts, the party leader.
The passage of the tariff bill and
possibly of the soldiers bonus
measure would constitute the major
part of the program before ad'
journment in the opinion Of the
Republican leaders with the Capper
Tineher grain future trading bill,
the Librarian loan measure and
the rivers and harbors development
bill on their tentative calendar for
passage at the present session. Ris-
ing opposition because Of its SUBJ
sidy features and the prohibition
element injected through an
amendment prohibiting sale OF
liquor on American ships left con-
siderable doubt as to the possibili'
ty of the bills disposal before ad.
journment, Republicans said.
The soldiers bonus bill, however,
was said to be the real thorn on the
legislative vine. This, it was said,
was discussed at some length at the
Lodge dinner, but without definite
conclusions other than for consulta.
ton by senate leaders with Presi,
dent Harding when he returns from
Marion.
The conference report on the bill
to create % additional federal
judges also is to be pressed, but
with uncertainty as to its fate dur
ing this session. The Dyer anti.
lynching bill and the Muscle
Shoals matter seemed doomed to
20 over to the next session, leaders
said.

HARDING PRAISES
AMERICAN LEGION
DEDICATED TO PRESERVATION
OF CONSTITUTION.-PRE PRESI.
DENT DELIVERS BRIEF AD.
DRESS TO SEVERAL THOUS-
AND WORLD WAR VETERANS

Marion, Ohio, July $50 long as
the American Legion is consecrated
to the preservation of the constitu-
ton and of law and order, the Amer
lean republic is everlastingly secure,
President Harding asserted in brief
address today to several thousand
World war veterans who held a re-
union here.
Reminding them that they were
now charged with a greater respon-
sibility than they were on the battle
fields of France, Mr.. Harding declar-
ed the destiny of the United States
was in the hands of former service
men.
~ have no hesitancy in saying"
he added, "that it is in good hands"
The president urged the men in
his audience, all of whom earlier in
the afternoon had participated in a
historical parade which he reviewed
to serve their country as civilians
with war time conservation and devo-
ton.
The president started off his last
day among the home folks with a
morning round Of golf on the new
links here with o. S. Rapp, close
Marion friend; General Pershing and
Charles G.. Dawes, former budget bu-
reau director. After luncheon at the
home of C. B. King, Mrs. Harding's 8
brother, the president went to re-
viewing stand to witness the parade
which depicted various stages of Ma
rion's history.
The president entered into the
spirit of the pageant with the enthu-
siasm of school booy. He grinned
broadly when a float passed on which
a colonial mother was rocking a era
die placarded with a sign:
mo fapper rocked in this"
Former service men from all parts
of Ohio had f1ocked in to Marion to
participate in the parade and to
hold a reunion later at the fair
grounds.

REDUCTION ON CLOTHS
Approved by Committee Rewriting
Tariff.

Tariff.
Washington, July 6.-Continuine
it's work of rewriting the tariff bill,
the Senate finance committee major.
ity has approved reductions in the
duties originally proposed on cotton
cloths and some cotton goods, includ-
ing hose and half hose and under
wear and other wearing apparel
Some attention also has been given
to the wooden schedule, but it is un-
derstood that the committee will
make few if any changes in the
rates in that schedule.
Under the changes in the cotton
schedule, duties on cotton cloth
would not exceed 45 per cent ad val
orem as compared with original du-
ties in some cases of go per cent and
more. In the place of rates on hose
and half hose ranging from Is per
cent and prevalorem and 70 cents
per dozen pairs to 80 per cent ad
valorem the majority has fixed a
straight duty of 10 cents per pound
and 60 cents ad valorem.

CONTINUE PEACE.
TALK IN STRIKE
MARKED TREND TOWARD PEACE
DURING PAST "a HOURS. JEW
ELL ISSUES LETTER IN REPLY
TO ONE FROM HOOPER OF
LABOR BOARD.

Chicago, July 6.-Emerging from
the holiday weekend, the strike stu
alton took more definite shape today
as both strikers and the roads settled
down to attempt an accurate sur
Ivey.
There were apparently no additions
to the strikers ranks today, while
several roads reported considerable
gains and many roads have made
formal announcement that the strik-
ers must return to work by next
Monday, July 10, or forfeit all rights
Their places, railroad officials said,
were gradually being filled by new
men.
Railroad officials here predicted
that by Saturday when the strike
will have been a week old they will
have an accurate line on the situa-
ton and begin a definite program Of
retrenchment. Their attitude today
seemed to leave little hope of set
tlement with the strikers.
A statement issued by Mr.. Jewell
referred to letter sent to him yes
terday by Ben W. Hooper, chairman
of the railroad labor board, in which
Chairman Hooper said the board "has
been protecting the interests of the
striking shopmen."
Mr.. JEWELS statement in part fol-
lows:
"Though the letter itself has
not reached me, can, on the basis Of
press reports, say that the mere de-
|claration that the organization of
employees who have declined or may
decline, as is their legal right, to
accept the dictates of the labor board
are not to be 'outlawed,' does not re-
move or annul the official action of
the board. The language of the reso-
luton clearly provides that the shop
crafts organizations are to be sup
planted by organizations of what may
be termed 'whitewashed strike break
ers.'"

Abbeville County celebrated the
second birthday of the Memorial Hos
pital yesterday afternoon after the
ball game beginning with a grand
parade on the public square.
The parade was led by Hatch's
Concert Band and the formation was
as follows:
Birthday Cake float drawn by five
little girls dressed as cupids: Chris
tine Stephens, Floris Vandiver, Eliz-
abeth DuPre, Carolyn Hughes, and
Elizabeth Woodhurst, and driven by
little Tina May Andrews dressed as
a fairy.
The second feature of the parade
was DR.. J. E. Pressly as two year
old baby and representing the Hospi-
tai. If DR.. Pressly fairly represented
the condition of the Hospital it
seems to be well nourished, the Doc
tor having very much in evidence a
bottle filled with pure unadulterated
milk. DR.. C. C. Gambrell had the task
of pushing the Hospital Baby in an
invalid's chair. Dr.. Pressly also had
along as mascot Lad Perrin's favorite
dog "Daisy."
Next came the little girls pushing
doll carriages. Then about twenty
bicycle riders and at least twenty tri-
cycle riders, followed by Sol Rosen-
berg as ambulance driver. The ambu-
lance was drawn by Billy the Goat.
And last but not least came Allen
Hall dressed as a clown and driving
a wagon advertising the Hospital.
The parade was unusually attrac-
tive, each one taking part deserving
a gold medal for the way in which
the part was carried out.
The little girls pushing doll carri-
ages were all SO sweet and pretty,

GREAT LOSS TO
O'CONNELL STREET
SIEGE OF STRONGHOLDS OF
INSURGENT Irish FORCES
VIRTUALLY. ENDS WITH
SURRENDER OF SMALL
GROUPS

Dublin, July 6.-The siege OF the
strongholds of the insurgent Irish
forces was virtually ended tonight
with the surrender of small groups
of the men who had been fighting
for the past week behind the barri-
cades, and the capture of one of
the principal leaders, Cathal
Brugha, former minister of de-
fense. But the success of the ma
tional cause has been purchased at
the cost of blazing buildings and
terrible destruction in O'Connell
street, to say nothing Of the loss OF
life and the many seriously wound
ed.
There is still no information as
ito the whereabouts Of Eamonn De
Valera, who has apparently escap-
ed from the Free Staters' net.
In the afternoon, when ten
buildings, including three hotels,
were aflame the remainder Of the
irregulars driven into the Granville
hotel with fire on all sides, still
maintained a desperate resistance
with automatic guns and rifles, but
it was already seen that they could
not long delay the inevitable end.
The final attack by the Free State
troops commenced at midday after
a lull, during which the firing
slackened greatly. The regulars
then began a desperate plan OF
bombarding the insurgents, a
bomb was hurled into Hamagues
hotel and soon feint wisps crept
Through the shattered windows and
suddenly a gust of flame in front
was followed by dense volumes Of
smoke. The flames spread swiftly
and the first brigade hurried to the
scene. But a fusillade from the ir-
regulars in the Granville hotel
compelled them to retreat. The fire
attacked the shops adjoining the
Hamagues and in. less than two
hours the offices Rad collapsed.
Three buildings were completely
destroyed, the ruin being fastened
through the flames reaching stores
of bombs and ammunition, causing
numerous explosions and throwing
up great clouds of smoke.
Still the irregulars fired from the
windows of the hotels while the
nationals fired from their positions
opposite and from armored cars.
Machine guns fired into the hotel
windows. Within half an hour the
front of the building was flaming
furnace. Even while the lower
floors of the hotel were burning,
the irregulars continued to fire
from the upper windows but by 3
o'clock the remnant of the garri-
son, five men weary eyed and
blackened, emerged from the rear
of the building under the white
flag and surrendered.

CASE Of TOLBER1
GETS ATTENTION
SENATE SUBCOMMITTEE TO
HAVE INQUIRY-ANNOUNcE-
MENT MADE THAT JUNIOR s.
C. SENATOR WILL OPPOSE
CONFIRMATION.

Washington, July 6.-The consid-
Grafton of the nomination of Joseph
W. Tolbert to be marshal Of the Wes-
tern district of South Carolina by
subcommittee of the judiciary COM
mittee of the senate, of which Sena-
tor Samuel M. Shortridge of Califor-
mia is chairman, is scheduled for an
unnamed day next week.
Without specifying, Senator Short
ridge stated today that certain pro-
tests against confirmation Of Toll
bert had been received by the sub
committee. He also stated that when
the matter is under consideration,
Senator N. B. Dial of South Carolina
would be received for the purpose Of
making a statement. Senator Dial, as
previously reported, will protest
against the confirmation Of Tolbert.
The senator returned today from
South Carolina. He did not make pub
lie the ground on which he would
base his protest, but it is understood
that he will review the history Of
Republicanism in his state since the
inception of the administration Of
President Harding. It is expected
that he will declare that, in his opin-
ion, Tolbert, in consideration Of his
record, is not an ideal man to be
made an important court official in
South Carolina.
Senator Dial said today: "It is un-
pheasant to proceed against any one
appointed to Office. But certain du-
ties confront senator when his peo-
Iple send him to Washington, and
such duties must be regarded,
whether they are pleasant or not. I
feel that we should be very careful
in suffering the confirmation Of men
appointed to hold Office in our state.
It is my duty to oppose the confrma-
tion of any appointee !: do not re-
gard as satisfactory and it will not
suffice, I hold it, that 1 simply regis
ter my protest by negative vote"
The case is one Of the really in
teresting which pend in Washington.
Tolbert is the oldest member of the
national Republican committee and
is chairman of the state committee.
He is spokesman for the Republican
party in South Carolina and as such
his appointment by the president was
natural. His rejection by a Republi-
can senate, after he had recommend
ed appointees for practically all eth
er offices would be to certain extent
at least, Sensational.
The intention of Senator E. D.
Smith regarding the Tolbert case is
unknown. The senator is absent at
nroeant
