Durbin, July 5 - (By Associated Press)—It is lcarned on excellent au- thority, says the Press Association this afternoon, ' that the Irish provisional government intends to issue a national | call to arms tomorrow. De Valera Still Missing., Lomdon, July 5 (By Associated Press.)—Winston Churchill, the colo- nial secretary, announced in the house of commons this afternoon that the attack by the Irish national army in the Sackville street area of Dublin was still proceeding at 2:40 p. m. The whereabouts of Eamon De Valera was unknown, he sald. “It is uncertain whether he is| within the cordon of the national| troops or has deserted the commands and escaped,” added the secretary. Mr. Churchill said his information confirmed the report that a white flag displayed by the republicans in the blazing buildings had been suddenly withdrawn and fire opened on the fire- men, one of whom was wounded. Ten Buildings on Fire. Ten buildings in Sackville street, the | republican insurgents’ stronghold, | were ablaze at this hour (5:30 p m.) | The irregulars were still holding out in the Granville hotel and were firing from the windows, surrounded by an | inferno of flames. Five men, the last occupants of the Gresham hotel have | surrendered. The end of the battle ts believed to be near Dublin, July 5 (By Assoclated| Press)—Bombardment of the build- ings occupied by the republicans re-| maining in their Sackville street stronghold was resumed at 1 p. m, to- Qay after a few hours lull. The Hammam hotel, one of | principal points of the defense, was| ablaze shortly after mid-day and flames were spréading to adjoining buildings on the south. Shortly after the fire was observed what appeared to be a white flag was hung out, but when troops and firemen approached the building they were fired at and the supposed flag withdrawn. National army forces then trained an 18 pounder on the Hammam and on the general post office, next door, | where the main force of the irregu- lars was believed to be concentrated. Final Fight Expected. The post office is more solidly con- structed than the other buildings of the block and it is believed that it is “there the republicans will wage their final fight. . The free state forces are reported in possession of the Gresham hotel, which is separated from the post office by the Crown and Granville hotels. From the upper stories of the Gran-| ville the defenders were continuing to | maintain sharp rifle fire. Dense volumes of smoke were pour- | ing from the blazing buildings and| occasional explosions were heard. At mid-afternoon the fire was re- ported to have spread to the postoffice | A vast crowd on the O'Connell bridge watched the tragic spectacle being! enacted a few hundred yards aw heedless of the peril of flying bullets. Red Cross workers were carrying on their work fearless De Valera Not Seen It is not known whether Eamon| De Valera and other republican lead-! ers including Harry Boland and Countess Markiviecz are with the gar- rison. It is believed many have escap- ed and have gone to join the bands organizing in the Dublin hills. A force of national army men has been dis-| patched to counter this move. Another big fight is believed to be i{mminent in County Donegal. A large number of irregulars are concentrat- ing at Glenveagh castle which is well situated for defensive purposes. It is| estimated 500 republicans are there. They have installed the wireless outfit captured from the British station on] the Donegal coast and have fortified | many farmhouses. All Approaches Mined All approaches are reported to have been mined. Free state troops are leaving in force for an attack on the castle with | artillery and possible bombing Blr-i‘ ships. Catholic priests have intervened in| an effort to arrange terms, but free, state leaders have stated they will ac- cept nothing short of unconditional surrender. 3 | the | | { Bandits Disarm Cop And Steal $28,000 St. Louis, July Bandits today Loarded a Tower Grove street car disarmed a policeman, who was ac- companying Joseph Mosson, messen- ger for the Tower Grove bank and escaped with a satchel containing $21,200 in currency and $75,000 in checks the messenger was conveying to a down-town bank Witnesses said there were seven armed bandits 1,500 BACK AT WORK.

Rock, July 20, Mr. Gorbach feels the | party will be benefited by what op- position he will offer to furthering any | movement to place the local mayor on | the state ticket. | Discussing Joseph M. Halloran's ef- | forts to land a place as candidate from the first district for congres- | sional honors, Mr. Gorbach said he' was certain that the convention would | not hear of a proposition to award to the city of New Britain two such im- portant places as lieutenant governor and congressman. He felt that if the | names of Paonessa and Halloran both | went before the fall convention either | one or hoth would be doomed to dis- | appointment. Outlook Unsatisfactory. Committeeman Gorbach in discus sing the chances of Mayor Paonessa for attaining the honor he is reported to be seeking, indicated that he felt the mayor's chances to be very slight. On the other hand, he is optimistic concerning Mr. Halloran's candidacy for congressman, provided there is no hitch on the proposition of New Brit- ain asking too much of the conven- tion, The first announcement of Mayor Paonessa's desires came with publica- tion in a Waterbury newspaper of a reported booin to place Paoncssa of the ticket. When questioned the mayor would not make a formal an- nouncement of his candidacy, nor would he say that he would not run, T'or several days past he has remained silent. Committeeman Gorbach declined to discuss the complex political situation when apprised of the reported hoom, explaining that it had not received the mayor's approval. Since several days have elapsed without a denial on the part of the mayor that he would seek the nomination, Mr. Gorbach came out flatfootedly with his objections today.

New Haven, July 5.—Samuel P Sharnik of Madison was held by Cor oner Mix today to have bheen crim inally responsible for the death of Robert R.

Broad Scope of Program “In the number of events is includ- ed lectures for the student of men and | affairs, a drama, poetic recitations, a | musical presentation and a number of better class acts similar to vaude- ville acts In addition, there is a Chil- dren’s chautauqua, or a series of meetings for the youngsters which isa valuable educational factor and which they seem to enjoy.

Every cent that comes in, over actual expenses, goes toward making the Chautauqua bigger and better for the succeeding year. Naturally the per- formers are paid a salary but the officlals in charge work for a very mod- erate sum and the expense incurred is not so great. The affair is usually aided by a local committee in the town where it is to appear, which is the case in New Rritain, thirty men having banded together and agreed to assume the expense, covering it by guaranteeing to sell a certain number of season tickets.

Today was considered the ‘turning point in the strike of the 350,000 workers. Although responding gen- erally to the call last Saturday raile | road officials insisted many of the de- fections were due to the desire of the men to take a holiday over the Fourth of July. Local union reports to the office of B. M. Jewell, head of the shopmen, ; reiterated the union assertion that the strike was 100 percent. effective. Maintenance Men Quit. Maintenance of way men, despite the decision of that union's executive | council hers last night to postpene ! strike action for the present, were also said to be joining the walkout. Such reports reached President Jewell's | headquarters and were confirmed by : news dispatches. Freight handlers, clerks and sta-/ tionary firemen and oilers joined the . deserting ranks of shopmen at yari- ous points, although fully as many shops reported that men were return- ing to work today. The rallroads generally were advertising for new! men to take the strikers' places and ¢ some roads were completing arrange- ' ments to handle their repairs out- side. 5 | | Beston, July b5.—hile striking shopmen of the Boston and Maine, Boston and Albany and New Haven railroads prepared for their first joint mass meeting this afternoon officials |of the roads repaerted that many of them returned to their jobs today. Conditions on all the lines, it was said, were better than at any time sinci {the strike began. The Boston and Albany announced that full forces were on duty at ‘me portant centers. Officials of the Boston and Maine and New Haven said men were worke ing in departments affected by the strike. Rabert Fencher member of the géna eral executive board of the interna- ticnal association of machinists was announced as a speaker at the shop« men’s mass meeting.
