‘Was not a peace, and that it would be folly to rejoice promaturely. The Dewspaper admitted, however, that the Trish truce should be the prelude of Pence, and declared that ultimate re- Sponsibility rested upon British states~ men. It asked if those statesmen ‘would show “the courage and gene- fosity the situation demands.” ‘The Morning Post, a Conservative Organ, complained of tie “humiliation Febels have inflicted upon England,” @nd said the British Government was "negotiating terms at the point of a Woaded pistol.” Military patrols were withdrawn from the streets of Dublin last ev Bing, says a Central News despatch from that city. Many of the police Auxiliaries were walking the streets Jeisurely, fraternizing with civilians and discussing the prospects of peace in Ireland. The truce between the Sinn Fein and the Crown forces may, therefore, be said to be already be- gun, although the time for commenc- ing it omcially has been set for Mon- day noon. It is understood the armistice will be signed by Sir Nevil Macready and Michael Collins, commander of the Irish Republican army. poe at ULSTER PAPERS COLD TO THE NEW PEACE PROSPECTS “Dare Not Call It a Truce of God,” Says the Northern Whig—News Letler Is Bitter. BELFAST, July 9 (Associated Press).—The new development In Irish politics was coldly received in Belfast. ‘Truckling to the murder * gang,” the Belfast News letter cap- tions its editorial on the truce, saying there are complications in the Down- ing Street truce announcement which are disquieting “to all loyal subjects of the King and repulsive to all hon- erable men.” The Northern Whig, in its com- ment on the new developments, sa; “Whatever the Government may promise or protest, we doubt if they will be able entirely to remove the fear that their first descent into the valicy of humiliation will not only fail to bring peace to Ireland but may altimately be the means of causing many faithful British subjects to pass through the Valley of the Shadow of Death.

DUBLIN, July 9% — Peace was @ettling over Ireland to-day, For the first time since the Easter Rebellion Of 1916 hostilities were actually dying down, under the truce signed between the Sinn Feiners and representatives of the British Government. ‘The Freeman's Journal! to-day said: “To-day's news raises hopes in the hearts of the people which have not Deen felt for many months, thanks to | the efforts of the peacemakers, who a@re doing their work well. We are in sight of a cessation of bloodshed during which, with God's blessing, a) permanent, honorable peace may be engendered.” De Valera and other Sinn Fein lead- ers were making preparations to-day for their conferences with Premier Lloyd George, whica will be held is London and at which it 1s hoped « permanent peace for Ire.and will be decided upon and subscribed to. Both sides will go into this confer- ence, it is expected, in a spirit of con- ciliation. The Sinn !einers are pre- pared to forego their demands for ab- solute independence, and the Briush, it is believed here, will be ready to treat with De Valera and his lieuten- ants on terms of equality and grant « greater measure of self-government to Ireland than has heretofore boen of- fered. ORANGEMEN IN PARADE IN NEW YORK TO-DAY, ‘The Orangemen's parade will be held this afternoon beginning at 3 o'clock.

Going off duty last night John Car- ney, Romeo Scott and Rudolph Mag- nus, Hoboken policemen, told each other it was too hot for sleeping. Scott borrowed an automobile and drove it with the other two as pas- sengera for two hours “looking for a breeze, morning, a seven-passenger car, filled with men, slipped out of a side road and crowded them to the left and swung in front of them. Scott was just able to stop his car in time to avold a collision. All seven men jumped out, and came toward them on the run, The policemen all had their revolvers and pulled them out at once, calling on the strangers to halt and hold up their hands. The seven lined up across the road and a spokesman began pleading nervous- ly that they didn't mean any harm, though they didn't blame the officers for suspecting them. They had lost their way, they said, and had de- cided to stop the first hp they met to be set right. Scott, looking along the line, recog- nized Whalen, accused as a fugitive murderer. The profuse explanations of the spokesman became worthless.

Perhaps the heat had kept them from sleep- ing too. The Hoboken policeman pushed Whalen to the rear, They did not mean to share the glory of his cap- ture with any suburban cops, Then, with the show of doing the local po- lice a favor, they turned the other six prisoners and the big car over to the Cliffside men, receiving profuse thanks for having cornered a crew of night marauders. Whalen was taken back to Hoboken in the car borrowed by the policemen, Mrs, Goldstein was attacked in her store by three men who, when she showed resistance to them, stood back | and shot her until there were no bul- lets left In their revolvers, Two of the men were caught the next day.

The ‘ater arrived about a month ago and imme- diately began to take special notice of the Woodland clildren when they met them on the boardwalk. Jack and his sister are large for their age, bright, and attract much attention, so it was easy for Mrs. James .o become acquainted with Mrs. Woodiand. This intimacy grew, Mrs, Wood- land told the police, and the James! couple made evident efforts to in- gratiate themselves in the confidence of the children and their mother, Presently Mrs. Woodla.d was going to motion picture shows at night wich Mrs. James while Mr. James stayed in the Woodland home and cared for the cuildren. Mr. and Mre. James Thursday, as often before, went to the Woodland home and took the children, saying they were going to the beach, When luncheon time was past Mrs, Wood- land went to the Sunnyside Villa. She learned that the James couple had returned to their hotel immedi- ately after their call at her home and in @ few minutes had left with the children and with all their baggage. Their room was empty. | Mrs, Woodland, who later told the | police of previous atte npts to steal | the children, immediately notified the authorities, who learnea soon that the Jameses and the children, accom- panied by a third man, had engaged Capt.

RAIN OF METEORS ON SUN IS WHAT MAKES IT SO HOT Government Astronomer Says This Is Reason for High Temperatures All Over the World. Vallejo, Cal., July 9. The extraordinarily © warm weather of the present summer is caused by an unusual down- pour of meteors on the sun, in- creasing Its radiation and effec- tive surface temperature, is the bellet of Prof. T. J. J. See, Gov- ernment astronomer at the Mare Island Navy Yard. Citing the fact that unusually warm summers occur every ten or eleven years, he sald: “Since a mass of meteoric mat- ter greater than our moon {s fall- ing into the sun every century, it is very improbable that the downpour procerds at a uniform rate. If it comes down in gusts under the actions of the chief planets, Jupiter and Saturn, which are now near conjunction and are seen together in our eve- ning sky, then we should have sudden increases of the sun's radiation, just euch as we now witness all over the world. “This is a sufficient explana~ tion of the unprecedentedly hot summer.” IN TOMBS, FINDS HER LONG LOST MOTHER CLEVELAND, July 9.—Detalls con- cerning the actual assassination of Daniel ¥, Kaber in his Lakewood home two years age were expected to be presented in evidence to-day by the State in the trial of Mrs, Eva Catherine Kaber, his widow, for first degree murder, This evidence was in the form of an elleged confession by Srlvator Cala, whom the State claims was hired by Mrs, Kaber and participated in the stabbing of Kaber. Cala’s al- leged confession, made in the pres- ence of Mrs. Kaber was offere through Detective Phil Mooney and Chief #, W, Smith of the Cleveland police, Mrs. Kaver’s counsel fought the in- troduction of this evidence on the ground that Cala should be called in person to testify. Cala also is under indictment for first degree murder for his alleged part in the murder. ‘he Judge will decide on the admissabil- ity of the confession on \donday. County Prosecutor Edward C.
