CHICAGO, Ills, July D. (By the
 Associated Press) = Hope for the speedy settlement of the countrywide strike of the railway shopmen was seen tonight in statements issued by Ben w. Hooper. chairman of the Unit ed States railroad labor board. and B. NJ. Jewell, leader of the shoDcrafts who ordered the walkout.
 In reply to a letter from Hooper which was regarded as conciliatory in tone, Jewell declared that the strikers were willing to consider any negotia- tions with anyone in authority for set tlement of the strike.
 We are willing to confer with any body authorized by the railroads to bring peace proposals to us." said Jew ell. Il include or exclade nobody, but IT the labor board, for instance. came to us with definite proposition. we would not hesitate to consider it."
 Jewell then made public for the first time the exact figures on the strike vote taken by the 4O0.e00 members of the six shopcrafts. The vote was di- vided into three separate ballots, the first on accepting $50,O00. .0O0 reduc- ton in wages ordered by the labor board, the restoration of seven work ing rules altered by the board. and. third, the abolishment of outside con- traeting by the roads.
 A tabulation of the ballots. Jewell said, showed 94.7 per cent of the men had voted to strike on the question of wages. the heaviest vote for a strike being on the question of outside con- tract labor which boiled 97.I per cent of the vote cast.

WASHINGTON. July 5.-The Repub hcan petition for cloture to shut off debate on the administration tariff bill, was presented late today in the senate. It immediately provoked a bitter fight. Under the rules, the is. sue must come to a vote at noon on Friday.

MARION, O., July 5.-CBy The As sociated Press.) = So long as the American Legion is consecrated to the preservation of the constitution and of law and order, the American republic is everlastngly secure, Pres iGent' Harding asserted in brief ad- dress today to several thousand world war veterans who held a re- union here.
 Reminding them that they were now charged with greater respon- sibility than they were on the battle fields of France, Harding declared the destiny of the United States was in the hands of former service men.
 ''I have no hesitancy in saying,"I he said. 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 wartime devotion.

 All trains passing through Slater tonight were searched for strike breakers. A force of 15O to 200 strikers held the station platform and. others were posted at various parts of the yards. A deadline had been established around the railroad shops barring strangers.
 Thomas Gaullin, mayor of Sla- ter, a clerk in the shops, said that as far as he knew, there had been no violence in connection with the occupation of the shops Ny the strik- CTS, or in sending the strike-breakers out of town. But he admitted he had not been present and that he heard that some of the strike-break- CTS had been "cussed little"
 One of the strike-breakers, de- ported tonight, wore a bandage wrapped around his head as he was lead on board the Chicago train. Union men said he had fallen into one of the repair pits because of ex- citement when he saw the strikers enter the shops.
 Leo Winkler, head of the shop mems union, said there had been no violence.
 The mayor said railroad officials had asked him today for special of ficers to protect property, but that he had refused to act because that would be to anticipate trouble, and he did not believe there was going to be any violence.
 P. Butts, the town marshal, until four years ago, an employe in the shops, admitted arresting strike breaker today and holding him in jail for hours "on suspicion" He was later released to union men and

 The president entered into the spirit of the pageant with the en- thusiasm of schoolboy. He grinned broadly when float passed on which colonial mother, rocking a cradle, placarded with a sign:

 An old prairie schooner, drawn by 20 mules and a dilapidated rural frontier wagon in which there was a smoking stove, also caused the pres ident to smile. Mrs. Harding leaned over the railing to wave to a four foot drum major, who strutted at the head of one band.
 Former service men from all parts of Ohio had flocked into Marion to participate in the parade and to hold a reunion at the fair grounds.

DUBLIN, July 5.-(By the Associa ted Press)-The seize of the strong holds of the insurgent Irish forces was virtually ended tonight with the sur render of small groups of men. who had been fighting for the last week be- hind barricades, and the capture of one of the principal leaders, Cathal Brugha, former minister of defense.
 But the success of the national cause has been purchased at the cost of blazing buildings and terrible destruc- tion in OConnel street to say nothing of the loss of life and the many ser iously wounded.
 There is still no information as to the whereabouts of EammOn de Val era who has apparently escaped from the Free Staters' net.

Mysteries of Ocean Depths Are Plumbed by Naval Expedition

WASHINGTON, July 5.-Extensive plains and table lands bordered by mountains at the bottom of the sea, some of which rise more than 4,OOO feet above the plains, have been dis closed to the navy department through sounding taken by the destroYug Stew art with a new sounding device on a cruise pust completed from Newpore to Gibraltar.
 The device, which operates on the principle of timing a reflected echo" was perfected by Dr. Harvey c. Hayes. physicist of the engineering experi- mental station at Annapolis and is ex- pected to revolutioniZe piloting and navigation. An outline of trade routes through its use should give any num- Der of land marks at the bottom of the sea for use in finding a ships posi- tion, an announcement by the navy de- partment of the tests conducted by the Stewart said today.
 More than 300 soundings were made during nine days consumed in the trip from Newport to Gibraltar of from 20 minutes to minutes frequency while steaming at fifteen knots an hour. Soundings may be made in deep or shallow water without the use of a lead, or other castings overheard, the announcement said.
 Several deep depressions at the bot tom of the sea were found that have never been shown on charts and pos itive depths data were obtained where charts showed only negative data in the vicinity of the Azores.

 COAL STRIKE TO

Further Government Action Will Be Determined After
 Return of Harding

WASHINGTON, July 5.-While set. clement of the bituminous coal strike appeared tonight to hinge on the meeting the operators and miners are expected to have with President Harding next Monday, another con- ference of the parties to the anthra- cite situation will be held tomorrow. It was expected that Secretary Fall would again meet with the miners union officials, and mine owners rep resentatives, but the impression was that the session might be inconclu- sive with the result that any action would be held up pending the out come of the bituminous sessions.
 Though neither. bituminous opera tors nor the officials of the miners union assembled had power to make binding decisions, for their associates, the anthracite conference, as sum- moned by President Harding, consti- tuted actually joint wage negotiat. ing group.
