Delegations of Five Naval Pow.

More Than 10000 Tons Nav
Not Be Converted in War
LIMIT MERCHANT SHIPS

washington, Jan. 10:-(By the As.
sociated Press. .)--Delegations Of the
nVe naval powers continued TODAY
their separate study of the draft OF
treaty repaired by naval experts to
cover the naval limitation agreement
preliminary to meeting later in the
day OF delegation heads to compare
opinions OF detailed provision of the
draft. The treaty was given to the
several delegations for study late
Yesterday and the time required for
this caused postponement of the
meeting OF the full naval committee
originally planned for today until to-
morrow l+4 asss.ss
Although a carefully guarded Sc
cret in both substance and text the
tentative draft is understood to in
clude a number of wholly new fea-
lures, chief among these proposal
to extend the duration Of the pact un-
til 1887, this not to affect, however,
the ten year period OF the naval hol-
iday.
The treaty draft would settle the
merchant ship problem by limiting
the armament of merchantmen to six
inch guns and also it is understood
to prohibit the conversion of any
commercial vessel of more than 1O.-
900 tons into a naval auxiliary.
With the armament program Of the
conference nearing final disposition
the delegates were preparing today to
press to an early conclusion also the
Far Eastern discussion and to this
end 1t was apparent that the Shang-
tung negotiations were being turned
into new channels with revised hope
of agreement. The nature Of the
latest move had not been revealed
but both the Chinese and Japanese
implied that new and promising ele-
ments had been injected into the ne
gotiations.

FEAR FURTHER HOSTILITY.

Dublin, Jan. 1O.-(By the Associat-
ed Press. s.)-Anxiety was expressed in
some circles today as to the attitude
OF the Irish Republican army on the
Anglo-lrish treaty. It was said that
although its leaders uphold the treaty
large section of the rank and file
especially in the southwest continue
1rreconciliably against it and this DO
sltlon is regarded as holding un.
pleasant possibilities.
Another fear is that some Repub-
llcans OF political bent are not.
Wlthstanding the Dahl vote firmly set
upon establishment of their own gov
ernment at any cost with the pur-
pose of making a failure of the
treaty.
Encouragement for supporters of
the treaty arrived last night with the
announcement that organized labor
in Ireland had resolved to throw it's
influence into the scale in behalf OF
the new government
The Irish newspapers continue
their support Of the new order OF
things.
