London, July 22.—(By the = A. P.)—A hopeful,view of the Irish peace megotia- tions was taken by Lord Curzon, the sec- retary of foreign affairs in the House of Lords last evening, when he (ncidentally touched upon the question. It was the government's intention not to have an autumn session of parliament, Lord Cur- zon said in answering a question but it the Irish negotiations moved successful ly—and so far, he was glad to say, they seemed charged with hope—it was con- ceivable that the the assembling of par- liament in the autumn might be necessary FUTUBE OF IRELAND TURNS ON TWO IMPOETNT POINTS London, July 22.—(By the A. P.)—The future course of the Irish negotiations seems to turn on two important points— first, whether aio‘jer meeting between Sir James Craig, t.e Ulster premier, and Eamon de Valera can be brought about in Ircland and, second, whether De Va- lera can be induced to consent to a so- lution of the situation through an amendment of the existing home rule act, presuming that such a solution can be worked out. The second question appears to hinge on a desire on the part of the conteni- ing parties to hold their ideal Mr. Lloyd George, as a consession to the unionist section of the coalition, wishes to save the home rule act, and Mr. De Valera and his party, on the other hand stly prefer to destroy the hat- partition act.” Mr. De Valera today had an evation as he was returning to Dublin. He Is expected to spend the week end therc in informal talks with his colleagues and probably will summon a meeting of the Dail Eireann next week. The convening of the Dail Eireann, it is considered here would be an indici- tion tat the offer was regarded as the pos: basis for further negotiations. The supposition is that If the draft offer is not snoroved by Arthur Griffith, Pro- fessor John MacNeil Michael Collins and other leaders, the Dail Eireann hardly would be convened. The terms of the government's proposal apparently will not be announced publiz |1y witcout a prior agreement betwaen | Premier Lloyd George and Mr. De Vale- ra. According | statements ed to apparently inspi howerer, they are of a so | what tentative character, intended to 1n- {dicate the lines on which the govern- {ment considers a solution of the situa- |tion ppssible provided both Ulster and |the Sinn Fein are able to agree ani equest the government to amend the ex- isting act. a JAILER HAS SURRENDERED THE AMHERST GODDESS Waterbury, Conn., July M labring | world famous goddess of the evem nu- meral classes at- Amberst colisge, who fo rthe past year has been in ‘possession of the odd_classes;, was captured Wed-. |nesday night in Litchfield Wwhere she {had been .hidden in a solitary confine- {ment cell for safe keeping:.

Failure of the ‘steamship company to pay rentals which in the aggregate up 1o the time of the seizures would amount to about $400.000 was given as the prin- cipal reason for the board's action by El- mer Sehlesinger, its general counsel. In addition to the rentals due, Mr. Schlessinger declared there were certain other alleged laxities in carrying out the contract under which the ships were chartered. i Four other vessels also under charter to the United States Miil Steamship company, which are now on the high sets, will be taken over by the Ship- ping Board as soon as they return to American watersy he added.
