Dali Conference
On Irish Peace
Ends I'm Failure
Members Are Unable to In
duce Rival Factions to
Settle Their Differences
and VIII Report To-day
From The 7ribuue's European Bureau

Copyright 1922. New York Tribune Inc.
LONDON, May 16.-The Irish peace
commission appointed by the Dali
Elreann to reconcile the differences
between the Free Statcrs and rcpub-
licans failed in its task to- day and will
report to the Dali tomorrow a break
down in the negotiations.
Up to almost the last minute there
was every indication that basis Of set
tlement would be reached. In fact two
cheif points were agreed to by both
sides-the holding of general election,
the results Of which would not be con-
tested, but accepted as iinal-~and the
formation of strong coalition cabinet
that would represent all factions and
be able to check disorders and improve
economic conditions.
| The break came on a comparatively
minor issue. The republicans insisted
that the election be arranged SO that
in the new Dali there would be just as
many republican members as there are
at present. The Free Staters sur-
gested reduction in the number of re-
! publican members, so that the make -up
of the Dali would be more representa-
tive of opinion in Ireland. No agree
ment could be reached on this point
and the whole peace question will be
referred back to the Dali
Unless the controversial point was
raised merely as prctext for break
it is regarded in Dublin as inconceiv-
able that the country should be plunged
back to civil war over such simple
dispute. 1t is suggested that the Dali
Eireann may pursue the peace negota-
tions by deciding itself what the settle
ment of this point shall be. The ques-
tion may even be decided by the resip-
nation of some members who are tired
Of the conflict.
The question is complicated by the
difference of opinion over whether the
election should be for all Ireland or
for only the twenty-six southern coun-
ties. The republicans insist that Ulster
be covered also
The declaration by Michael Collins.
chairman of the Free State govern
ment, that "there will be no civil war"
is taken in Dublin to mean that despite
appearances some settlement finally
will be reached.
Sir Hamar Greenwood, Chief Secre-
| tary for Ireland in the British Cabinet.

that there would be no British troops

Street Store.

The Kennard-Pyle Co.. having the
Oldest store OF its kind in the city, is

ton.

Special mention should be made OF the
comprehensive display of garments for
women, misses and children. A feature
of this is a collection OF genuine
Rue de la Paix dinner and evening
gowns, imported directly from Paris
through the New York Office. This
is one Of the most striking displays
Of gowns ever seen here.
Mention should also DO made of the
extraordinary display Of millinery, In

ported from Paris. Kennard-Pyle store
has probably largest display OF mil
linery In the city, comprising over
700 individual models.
Another feature of the annual cell
ebration 10 the opening OF a new and
exclusive bedding department on the
second floor, where one may select
bedding in the same comfort and Sc
clusion as their own home would at
ford. Those having seen the new de-
partment praise It highly.
Another display calling forth ia
vorable comment Is that OF silks and
all-oyer laces.
The interior of the store presents q
very pretty picture, for Its decoration
OF black and orange are unusual nj
attractive.
The window displays are also some
what out OF the ordinary and are well
worth seeing, particularly a display
of handsome evening gowns, among the
most striking and exclusive model;
ever presented by the store.
During the anniversary celebration
there will be further emphasis on the
| value giving power of this reliable
| firm, which constantly points ou
that quality rather than low price is
