Final demands have been presented by theDail Eireann delegation attending the Irish conference here it wns reported in Lontfou today These demand' if conceded would involve ahrogration of the act which gave the Ulster government control of i tie six northern counties in Ireland but it was asserted the government had intimated that acceptance of these claims was impossible The lKsue has been referred to Dublin according to the report and it was implied that the Dail Eircaun answer which is expected by Monday at the latest will probably tie unfavorable Views expressed by newspaper here today certainly were not encouraging There appeared to be an agreement by political correspondents that Ulster rather than sovereignty over Ireland was the crux of the situation The London parliamentary correspondent said: quarters that should accurately record the mind of the government gloomy forebodings were current lie spoke of pessimism in the ministerial quarters and that attitiule appeared to be shared by most of the political writers It was not surprising that some journals again spoke of the improbability of lrime Minister IJoyd George being able to attend the opening of the Washington conference Anxiety over debate -in Commons especially its re'ation to the Irish negotiations was reflected by today's newspaitcrs They emphasized the fact that an overwhelming vote of confidence which it was assured the government would receive would strengthen the hand of the ministry when its representatives again meet the Irish delegates It was generally believed the next meeting of the Irish conference would be of-the ntmost importance and would show whether peace i possible Chief Among Irish Demands Chief among the demands presented at the Irish conference by the Dal Eireann delegates is one that the six northeastern counties of Ireland shall either come into a United Ireland or accept the verdict of a plebiscite for the fixing of new boundaries it was declared by the Star today British representatives in the conference will it is understood consider the Irish terms the Week end at Chequers court the suburban home of lrime Minister Lloyd George It ia impossible however that a definite decision will be reached until after debate in the House of Commons upon which -it is 'believed the fate of the question peace depends The Minn Fein high council in Dublin met Friday evening and did not adjourn until midnight It was stated today the council disposed of a number of matters and questions of organization I IRE RACES TODAY

Lawrence Says Most Everybody In Government Realizes That Only A Truce Has Been Made Wage And Freight Cuts Still In The Air BY DAVID LAWRENCE (Copyright Lexington Leader) WASHINGTON Oct The railroad strike may have been averted but the issueg which cauoed it to be threatened have by no means been settled Most everybody' Sw-lhe government realize that a truce has been made and nothing more Further wage cuts are up in the air so are further freight reductions The status quo will be maintained for at least nine months more 1 Meanwhile certain points have been cleared up in the preaent controversy which will have the effect in the future of diminishing the area of dispute President Harding bo to upeak put the United States Railroad Labor Board on the map Its authority was challenged its power as a mediating body were qucHtioned But with the full support of the chief executive the United States Railroad Board- approaches its pending cases knowing now that it i responsible morally to the President for a thoro examination of all the issues and for a just verdict 1 Board Has Real Power Both the railroad and the labor unions now see the United States Railroad Board an a tribunal with real power In an emergency the President snowed that lio wa ready to back up the board in its decisions It was moreover to be used as an important lever in swinging public opinion The labor leaders themselves now have admitted that with public opinion against them they could not hope to win the strike They confessed the value of public opinioji This is a source of much gratification here for it means that the missing teeth in the Transportation act have been found The way the United States railroad board assisted by President Harding functioned in the present' crisis cou-vinces officials that if in all labor disputes an effort were made to go at once to the root- of the trouble without trying to settle imaginary issues that merely irritate and get nowhere more progress would be made in solving labor quarrels! ousty enough the manner in which the railroad strike- has been set tled is exactly the formula that President Harding would like to see applied in preventing war He believes that if public opinion can be marshalled against an offending nation the people of the offending country will cause their Government to recede from an aggressive stand Woodrow -Wilson believed the League of Nations would always furnish such an intermediary Mr Harding thinks the group known as the Supreme Council can do the same thing Theory The theory back in Mr Hardings mind in' the railroad controversy was one of thoro and complete investigation of the merits of the dispute by the properly constituted agency So long as the railroad brotherhoods insisted upon striking simply because of -a request of the railroad executives for a second wage cut Mr Harding waa ready to use the full power of the Government to explain to the American people the error of such an attitude The railroad labor board did in effect guarantee tbe unions that no second "Wwage cut 'would be considered before next July by announcing that the docket of case was too crowded to take up the wage case The railroad may -or may not have had some assurance that their revenues would nqt in the meantime be -diminished thru reductions in freight rates something which only the Interstate Commerce Commission can answer but the prevailing view here 1 is that the commission and the United States Railroad Hoard now are working together and that a drop in income wUl not be without some under-Ktanding about diminished tho to be sure the statisticians may find in the next few months railroad earning increased thru a general business revival BOY MURDERED THROWN INTO NIAGARA RIVER By Associated Piecbie BUFFALO Oct Losey of Korthport Long Island today positively identified tbe body of the young man killed and thrown -into the Niagara -river as that of hi sou Kenneth Losey 20-year-old student of Wesleyan University Mr

Centre College eleven with Mc-Millin and the other whose gridiron exploits have made famous the little Kentucky college they represent were seen again ia the stad public fcrneraliy is not shared in the least by the Colonel or their camp followers- In fact-the attitude or the Easterners is looked upon as gross stupidity It is painted ont that this year Coach Moran possesses the second string men necessary to sustain strong attack thruout the game while last season his bolt waa'shot when his regulars became exhausted before the Harvard reserves Macomber Brown and Grew will be the only Crimson regulars who will start against Centre Others however will be on the side lines ready to he sent in should the occasion arise Coach Moran expects to see most of the Harvard first eleven on the field
