No word was received in Dublin to-day

LoNpoN, Aug. IL tAssociated Press).
Photographic communication between
London and Dublin was restored at 3:4o
O'Clock this morning after q suspension
of about five hours as a consequence to
the surprise attack by Irish rebels on
the Dublin central post office last night.
The attack resulted in temporary. cut
ting off Of communication not only with
England. but apparently with other parts
of Ireland.
Whether Dublin has yet obtained a
fuller story of the capture of Cork by
the national army troops than was con-
tanned in the brief official report, already
cabled. is unknown here. A traveller
arriving at Waterford from Cork yes
terday evening was quoted as saying
the governmental troops were in COM
pete possession of the city and that
firing had ceased.
Earlier reports coming into London
by roundabout routes dealt chiefly with
the positions OF the opposing forces when
the Free Staters were nearing the city.
These reports recorded reckless looting
and destruction of property by gangs
of armed youths in civilian clothes. The
work of these bands 1t was said. in
cluded the wrecking OF the offices OF
the Cork Examiner and the Constitt-
fion, thes looting OF the Government
House and other buildings.
There was an evident absence of dis
cipline and the rebels were reported to
be acting with spontaneous irresponsi-
bility. All the shops were closed and
business was absolutely suspended.
Since the rumors that Eamon De
Valera was in Cork could not be con-
firmed. his present whereabouts was
equally unknown to-day.
The official report OF the comparative
lv trivial losses and of prisoners taken
indicate that the main force of the ir-
regulars showed little resistance after
the national troops landed on the coast.
There was nothing to-day to show def
initely whether the irregulars now main
tain any formation or whether they
have dispersed over the countryside as
civilians. but 1t was suggested in some
quarters that they were planning to con-
centrate at Killarney for final stand.

and one each from Rio Janeiro and

Through rates for the New York Lon

Western Union will charge 50 cents a

connection between the cable and land
lines was begun at once, according to
Western Union advices. following which
work on balancing" or tuning up. the
cable was started. Adjustments will be
simple, officials said, as the line will be
operated on a simplex basis only at the
outset. Normally cables are duplexed
to send and receive in opposite directions
simultaneously. The Miami Barbados
cable is reported sound, despite a break
last year, as a result of daily tests by
the Barbados operator

favorable action Friday night, following

Congress Can Decide.

Summarizing his views, he said:
Both branches OF Congress by their
action on the trading with the enemy
act reserved to the Congress the ulti-
mate disposition of enemy property, and
by the joint resolution reasser.ed their
legislative authority over that subject
the Senate by the exercise OF Its treaty
power has since reaffirmed these res
ervations of the trading with the enemy
act and the joint resolution with an ex-
pressed proviso that. except pursuant to
an act of the Congress. no representa-
tive OF the United States should sit on
any body, agency or commission dealing
with matters covered by the separate
treaties of peace.
Therefore. IL the adjustment of these
American claims so intimately connected
with the disposition of enemy property
Is arranged by purely executive agree
ment, II is hardly necessary TO point out
the possibility that the Congress, when
it comes to dispose of enemy property.
may reopen the entire matter of the adj
justment of American claims"

senator Underwood (Ala.) who recently
introduced bill for the settlement of
American war claims against Germany by
using part. of the German property held
by the Alien Property Custodian. re-
newed his attack to-day upon the Ad-
n1inistrat!on's plan to settle the claims
by mixed commission.
In letter to Senator Cummins
tIowa), chairman of a subcommittee OF
the Judiciary Committee, Senator Under
wood takes the position that President
Harding had no authority to enter into
an agreement with Germany for settles
rnent of the claims of the Government
and its citizens against Germany.
Senator Underwood gives notice in his
letter to Senator Cumnsins that he will
continue TO urge the enactment Of his
bill. which provides for an all Anieri-
ean commission to settle all claims.
II wish 10 say at the outset" he
writes that / do not believe any prece-
dent exists in our history which may be
termed applicable to the present situa-
tion. Presumably the President has re-
lied on the fact that representatives OF
the State Department have at divers
times In the past entered into certain
agreements for the adjustment of claims
OF American citizens against foreign gov
ernments, which agreements were not SUBJ
iiiitted TO the Senate for It's ratification.
