PUTTING SPEED
To BONUS BILL
Senate Works So Rapidly
That it May Possibly
Pass This Week
Opponents Sanguine in Belief
President Harding Will
Veto Measure

Washington. Aug. 23.--The senate
moved forward so rapidly today In It's
consideration OF the soldiers bonus that
some leaders regarded passage Of the
measure before the end OF this week as
more than possibility. Opponents
were understood 10 be disposed 10 let
the bill take it's course 1t this time. IN
the belief President Harding would veto
Il. Should he do so. they planned to
center their fight against It's passage
over his veto.
There still was. however. no official
information before the senate at this
time as to the executives views. other
than that contained in his letter. read
TO the house last March just before that
body passed the bill The President
then advised that congress either nnd
means OF financing tho legislation or
postpone its enactment. and some
friends Of the hill as we'll as opponents
believe he still Is Of that mind.
Don't Know What He'u DO.
Replying to a question by Senator
Robinson. Democrat, Arkansas. Chair
man McCumber of he finance committee
told the senate today that there was no
official information as 10 what the Pres
idcn, would do He added. however.
that the changes in tho bill. by which
there would be no heavy draft on the
treasury for the next three years.
would seem to meet every objection tho
President had urged against tho original
cash measure. and that he could sec no
reason why the executive should veto
the bill as now drawn.
After II got 10 work on the bonus late
today. the senate agreed TO the 4, COM
mittec amendments to the house hill In
exactly Is minutes. and then II got
ahead OF Itself TO such an extent that
the measure was laid aside tcmporar-
,ly. With the committee changes
cleaned up. Senator Bursuu. Rcpubli-
can. New Mexico. called up his substi-
tute. proposing half cash and half cer-
tiflcates of Indebtedness fo- tho vet

Cork. Aug. 23.-Grief over the death
Of Michael Collins is immeasurable; the
entire city is shocked, while resentment
in the national army was so strong that
the commanding officers had difficulty
in restraining the men when the news
first reached here. and troops from the.
north gave way to tears. Collins was
idolize. and his killing in his native
county has brought shame to the peo-
Pile
Today crowds wended their way 70
the Shanakiel hospital. and long before
noon the hill was packed with people,
while streams moved along all the roads
leading to where his body lay. IS
The military procession to the steam.
er which will bear the body to Dublin
was most impressive. The cEief psa-
bearer was Major General Daltons In
whose arms he died' and to 3whsna Hs.
said: - -
Let the Dublin brigade bury me-"
The ceremony at the hospital was
brief. At noon. after prayers were said.
the coffin was closed. troops reversed

ty a group or nurses bearing wreaths.
All along the way there were evidences
Of the sorrow Of the people.
Fill Fighting TO Last
Michael Collins fell fighting to the
last before what seemed at tristan over
whelmins force Of Irregulars who, Ans
bushed his little party between Macroon
and Bandcn. He had been visiting Cork.
and accompanied by the member Of his
staff left Tuesday morning to inspect
the military positions south OF Cork.
The party Is believed to have numbered
about score.

mored car. while an ordinary open ten.
der brought up the rear. The party vts.
tied nearly all the National army posts.
TO the south Of Cork. While proceeding
near Bandon the party was sIpbushsd
by about zoo Irresulars.
Collins Takes Charge.
The battle opened with a few shots
fred by the attacking forces. One OF
the first bullets nearly struck Collins
before his car stopped. ne NRtionAi1
dismounted and Collins assumed leader
ship. He ordered his men to take cover
at the fences on both sides Of the road.
At the outset the dispatch rider was
wounded in the lungs and. under the
direction OF Collins. was removed to
safety Then the Nationals settled
down to reply TO the fire. Within . few
minutes the attack developed into .
grim engagement. The battle lasted
close to an hour. 1t was IN the last
stages that Collins was killed.
For IS minutes the only casualty On
the side OF the Nationals was the dis
patch rider. The lighting was nearly
ended and the Irregulars were on the
point Of retreating when suddenly Col.
Inns fell.
In feeble voice the commando
asked for Major General Dalton, ana
Dalton and General O'Connell comforted
him. They whispered few prayers and
recited the act OF contrition before the
general passed away. His body was re-
moved under fire TO tho armored car.
