DE VALERA AID,
DIES OF WOUNDS
Succun,bs to Injuries
Receiued in Sack
uiue Fight.

Dublin, July 7.-(By the Associ-
ated Press. )-Cathal Brugha, one of
Eamon De Valera's chief lieuten-
ants, died today from the wounds
he received on Wednesday while
trying to fight his way clear at the
surrender Of the republican garri-
sons in the Sackville street area.
Cathal Brugha Charles Burgess)
was one of the most prominent of
the republican leaders who opposed
the terms of the Anglo-Irish treaty
from the start and fought against
it to the finish. He was De Valera s
minister of defense in the first Dali
Eireann, directing the campaign
against the British in south ireland
up to the time the truce was signed
in July Of last year. When the
terms Of the treaty, negotiated by
Arthur Griffith, Michael Collins and
their fellow delegates who met the
British representatives in London
late last year became known he
declared his opposition to the pact
and fought against it in the Dali
debates and in public speeches.
Refused to Surrender,
When the dispute between the
factions broke out anew, Brugha
sided with the insurgents, and ear
ly in the operations in the Sack
vile street area of Dublin he was
reported to be with De Valera i'll
the district, helping direct the fight
ing.
At the end he refused to surren-
der and dashed out of the Gran
vile hotel, where the insurgents
were making their. final stand, in
an attempt to get clear in the face
Of the fire Of the Free State troops,
only to receive mortal injuries and
be taken prisoner BY the national
army forces,

TAFT THANKS
ENGLAND FOR
HOSPITALITY
Asks Associated Press
to Tell Us
About 1t.

Cambridge, July 7.-(By the AS
sociated Press.) = Chief Justice
Taft, nearing the end Of his visit to
England, has asked the Associated
Press to inform the American peo-
pie Of the splendid reception and
glowing hospitality he has received
from the British. Before leaving
tonight for Aberdeen, Scotland,
where he will receive another hoE-
orary degree, he said:
my greetings have been SO gen.
erous and so sincerely cordial that
l am unable to find words adequate
to convey my gratitude, but l can
not help feeling that England's
warm manifestations were not to-
ward me as an individual, but in
my capacity as representative of
the millions Of Americans over
seas.
Admiration "Unbounded."
Everywhere in Great Britain l
have found the strongest evidence
of the friendship Of the English
people for America, and l go home
with unbounded admiration for the
country whence my ancestors came
and from which America obtained
its common law.
II have gathered an immense
fund of information respecting
England's judicial procedure
which l will try to digest on the
ocean with a view of presenting
the main features of the system to
the American bar association con-
vention in August. English prac-
tice simplifies the procedure by en-
bracing both law and equity in a
single action. Preliminary hear
ings compel both parties to dis
close the evidence that is relevant
on each side, SO that when the is
sue is presented in court it can be
expeditiously disposed Of.
Praises British Bar.
II cannat speak too warmly Of the
comradeship the British bar have
shown me and feeling they have
| given me of at once being at home
with them"
Mr.. Taft will receive the honor
ary degree of doctor of civil law
! from Aberdeen university. While
in Aberdeen he will be the guest ol
the Very Rev. Sir George Adam
Smith, principal and vice chancel-
lor of the university, who will BE-
remembered in the United States
where he lectured in 1918.
From Aberdeen he will proceed
to Glasgow and thence to Liver
pool, sailing on Saturday. He
plans to go direct to his summer
home at Murray Bay, Canada.

Find Oil Trail.

was found in several cars, showing
that plans for the firing Of the cars
had been carefully laid.
In one of the cars was found q
pile OF oil-soaked rubbish. The car
was sealed after the blaze was
kindled, and when firemen arrived
they found veritable furnace rag
ing within.
