Extended For Two Months GENERAL SMUTS HAS LEFT FOR IRELAND TO CONFER WITH SINN FEINERS AND UNIONIST LEADERS Great Interest Is Manifested in the Mission of General Smuts to Ireland, There Being a Difference of Opinion Whether It Was Prompted by the Government or Undertaken at the Invitation of the Irish Leaders\u2014The Dublin Conference Was the Outstanding Feature in London Newspapers This Morning, Nearly All Treating It Sympathetically and Expressing Hope that it Would Lead to Peace in Ireland.(Associated Press Despatch) LONDON, July 5.\u2014General Jan Christian Smuts, Premier of the Union of South Africa, left for Ireland last night and was expected to arrive in Dublin early today.It was understood here this morning that the purpose of his visit to Ireland was to confer with Sinn Fein and Unionist leaders of South Ireland preliminary to the resumption of their conference next Friday.The Unionists and Sinn Feiners held a brief meeting in Dublin yesterday and reports received here indicated that they had reached an under-aianding as to matters to be discussed at future conferences.The Dublin conference was the outstanding feature in London newspapers this morning, nearly all treating it sympathetically and expressing hope that it would lead to peace in Ireland.Comment on the meeting, however, was not devoid of remarks that the conference did not affect the programme of the Sinn Fein gorilla warfare.An exception to the general trend of hope was found in the editorial comment by the Morning Post, which opposed any concession to the Irish Republican.It began its editorial by criticizing the Government's attitude of \u201cEating dirt.\u201d Great interest was manifested in the mission of General Smuts to Ireland, there being a difference of opinion whether it was prompted by the Government or undertaken at the invitation of Irish leaders.Sir James Craig, Premier of Ulster, left Belfast for London today, and it is pointed out he will have abundant time to confer with members of the Government and others whom he may desire to consult, pending a decision by De Valera, respecting the proposed conference of Irish leaders with Mr.Lloyd George.Earl Middleton, one of the four Southern Unionists who took part in yesterday\u2019s conference at Dublin, arrived in England last night, and it is assumed he intends to confer with politicians here during the interval before the resumption of the Dublin conference on Friday.Earl Mi^o.lecon, .when interviewed at .Holyhead, declined tc\u2018 talk of the proceedings of the conference, saying the participants mutually had agreed to say nothing for publication at present, adding, as far as he personally was concerned he would say there was no reason to be dissatisfied with the programme made.He reiterated the statement issued at Dublin last night to the effect that certain decisions had been reached, but refused to indicate anything regarding their character.GENERAL SMUTS ARRIVED AT DUBLIN THIS MORNING.(Associated Press Despatch) DUBLIN, July 5.\u2014General Smuts, the South African Premier, arrived in Dublin this morning, and is a guest of the Lord Mayor.The welcoming delegation, including the Lord Mayor, Arthur Griffith, founder of the Sinn Fein, and R.C.Barton, Sinn Fein member of Parliament for Wicklow, awaited General Smuts at Kingstown, expecting to meet him there and escort him to Dublin.Through some slip, however, they missed the General and he motored to Dublin unnoticed.ASCOT WAS THE SCENE OF VERY SERIOUS FIRE Four Houses Were Destroyed by Flames Yesterday\u2014Help Sent from East Angus.A serious fire occurred yesterday afternoon in Ascot when four of the houses in the village were destroyed.The fire is reported to have started in the roof of one of the houses, and owing to the intense dryness of all materials, the fire spread rapidly.The blaze started about four o\u2019clock and by five the villagers realized that aid was necessary.Word was sent to East Angus and Sherbrooke, and help soon arrived from the former place.The Sherbrooke officials did not deem it wise to send any apparatus and men on account of the serious probabilities of fire in this city.Upon the arrival of help from East Angus an energetic attack was made upon the flames and they were finally put under control, but not before four hauses had become a total loss.It proved impossible to establish communications with Ascot this morning and further particulars are as yet unobtainable.DEVELOPMENT OF PALESTINE _____ Over 500,000 Jews in United States Request

Westminster relative to the conference at Dublin between DeValera and the four southern Unionists, says the parliamentary correponcU ent of the London Times.In quarters where a few days ago the prospect of Mr.DeValera coming to London was regarded as doubtful, he adds, there sprang up a belief that the conferenc had changed the aspect of events, and that his coming might be regarded as \u201cnot barely possible, but even probable.\u201d (Associated Press Despatch) PITTSBURG, Pa., July 5.\u2014Resolutions affecting the development of Palestine and involving an expenditure of

power in Palestine.(Associated Press Despatch) DAWSON, Y.T\u201e July 5.\u2014 Fort Norman oil is of such high grade that it did not freeze last winter even during fifty-eight below zero weather, according to the party of seven headed by James MacDonald, which reached here from Forn Norman on Saturday and proceeded to Edmonton yesterday.The oil flowed like water when exposd to the air and this, the party believe, indicates that a pipe line to the coast is feasible.NEW YORK, July 5_____James Bar- ry, 124 Audibon Avenue, claiming to be a veteran of the World War and a former member of the A.E.F., and two companions pulled down a British flag which had been flying over the Hilltop apartments at 16 Audibon Avenue.Later the flag was taken to a vacant lot and burned, according to the Morning Herald, which reports the affair.The newspaper states that a crowd estimated at one thousand watched while the flag was being burned and offered no interference.The flag had Been flying in

United States re-|vealed today that while the celebration of fireworks and firearms took its toll of deaths and seriously injured, by far the greater number of fatalities were from drownings and automobile accidents, common to all summer holidays.Heat prostrations also took a number of lives, according to the reports.In New York city seven persons were drowned, one committed suicide after becoming demented from heat, and one heat prostration was reported, while premature explosions of fireworks accounted for only minor accidents.Chicago reported two deaths from accidental shootings,another wounded, five drownings and five killed in automobile accidents, while a panic in a vacant lot when a quantity of fireworks exploded prematurely led to several being hurt.A young man accidentally shot and killed himself at Minneapolis, and at Rushville, Ills., two were killed when a train struck their automobile.Claim That The British Government Must Rid Itself Of Every Vestige Of

Conference, Premier Lloyd j George and the Dominion Premiers I resuming consideration of the subject where it was left off at yesterday\u2019s meeting.Opposition to the discussion of subject, by Premier Meighen, of Canada, and others, seemed to have broken down, and the Admiralty laid before the members a confidential memorandum which was understood to have been the basis of yesterday's debate.Naval authorities in the British Cabinet have been insisting that the Dominions\u2019 contribution to the naval strength of the Empire should be definitely fixed.It was expected that at the conclusion of today\u2019s meeting an official summary of the proceedings would be issued to the press.Heretofore the eonforaneo has not made -public any of the discussion* that 1758.82 have taken place.DISCOVERER OF AT SEATTLE Still Considers Feasible His Project to Drift Across the North Pole.SEATTLE, Washn., July 5.\u2014Rom-auld Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole, and seeker of the North Pole, arrived here last night from Nome, Alaska, vhero he appeared the middle of June after leaving his schooner, the Maude, at Cape Sorge, disabled by a broken propeller.Captain Amundsen said he still considered entirely feasible his project to drift across the north pole with the current, which he believes flows from Greenland to Siberia.He expects to remain in this country a your, he eplained, before proceeding with hi» vo.va.aa.tige of the war policy of control and subsidies.The Chancellor declared that he must bluntly tell the House it was impossible to continue on expenditure of this kind with the other colossal commitments.The president of the Board of Agriculture made his statement in moving the second reading of a bill to repeal the Agriculture Act passed last December, which guaranteed minimum prices to the farmer for his produce, and was estimated to entail a subsidy amounting from twenty million pounds to thirty million pounds yearly.Sir.Arthur explained that the Government never contemplated such a sudden heavy fall in prices, which, if the agriculture act were maintained, would involve the Government in a heavy yearly subsidy.Therefore, he said, instead of paying the farmers guaranteed pay for their produce, as provided under the Agriculture Act, the Government proposed by repealing the hill to pay the farmers this year a composite sum of three pounds per acre for wheat and four pounds for oats, which would mean a government expenditure of between fifteen million and thirty million pounds this j\"ear.Thereafter the payments would cease altogether.Sir.Arthur declared it was intended to substitute voluntary conciliation councils for the compulsory wages board established by the Agriculture Act, and that the farmers would be warned they could1 not return to prewar conditions by making drastic cubs in wages.THE CANADIAN BISLEY TEAM AT PRACTICE HAVE DECIDED IN FAVOR OF AN OPEN SHOP Announcement Made After Carpenters and Painters Unions Refused to Accept Offer Made.ALBANY, N.Y., July 5.\u2014Twenty-five Albany master builders and eight Troy contractors today announced they would conduct their business on an open-shop basis.The announcement wag made after the carpenters\u2019 and painters\u2019 unions had refused to accept a wage reduction and agree to work with non-union men, About one thousand men, who have been on strike in the two cities since May 1st, were given until last, midnight to agree to the employers\u2019 proposition.Their failure to accept the employers\u2019 offer caused the latter to offer employment today to carpenters and painters at seven dollars a day.In their proposition to the unions, the employers offered the painters .82 1-2 cents an hour and the carpenters 87 cents an hour.NEW CABINET IN ITALY PLEASES THE question of the Technical School site again came up for consideration at the regular session of the City Council yesterday evening, and after a certain amount of futile discussion the matter was referred to a joint meeting of the Technical School Commission and the Finance Committee.Aldermen Langis and Delomie were anxious to have the matter disposed of as early as possibly and drew the council into an adjournment of some ten minutes in order to have the question considered by the Finance Committee.After a brief session, the Finance Committee reported that they were unable to make any decison as they had not all the necessary documents with them, but were fully disposed to meet the Technical School Commission on Wednesday evening next, As intimated, the holders of the different properties on Bail Street were evidently anxious to dispose of their holding and Alderman Delorme advised that an extension of the option had been secured for another two months.Architects Fees Discussed At the opening of the session, the matter of the municipal offices was again brought up, involving a ch cussion of the architect\u2019s fees.Alderman Langis advised he was not familiar with the regular rates but thought it was five per cent.Alderman gjrinner wanted to feet « definite statement from Mr.Grégoire stating what the fees would be, but Alderman Langis did not consider this necessary.Alderman Skinner further maintained that Mr.Grégoire was actually drawing plans but Alderman Langis claimed they must have been merely sketches as he had issued no orders for the drawing- of plans.The finance reports was read by Alderman Forest, in lieu of Aider-man Brault, who was acting- Mayor.A demand for reimbursement of part of the cost of the sewers, etc., laid property of the Sherbrooke Real Estate Company, at \u201cBellevue Park\u201d and was held over pending detailed information as to the nature and amount of the refund asked for.The City lawyers have been instructed to take immediate action for the collection of the many accounts still due to the city, and this action is expected to see a steady settle-men of accounts by a large number of delinquents.Dealing with the recent petition < a number of ratepayers calling foi a continuance of the street car service from Woodward Avenue to the terminus of the Newington service, the finance committee decided to send a copy of the petition to the Street Railway Company asking that the council be advised why the Company had not acceeded to the request contained in the petition, namely, why they did not put into circulation the street cars from Woodward Street to Newington as is required by the Company\u2019s contract with the City.Revision of Wages Schedule.A gradual revision of the general wages of the City employees was approved of.Individual rates were altered but the carpenters were placed at forty-five cents an hour, automobile and truck drivers at thirty-five cents an hour, drivers of dump wagons at forty cents an hour, carters, single, forty-two and a half cents an hour, carters with team, fifty-five cents an hour.After a certain amount of discus- sion it -was also proposed to paj ordinary labor at the rate of thirty cents an hour for a ten hour day, instead of the rate of twenty-seven and a half cents formerly proposed by the finance committee.In future, the council will pay strict attention to the fact that all purchases, whatever their nature, must be made through the City Purchaser, and no permanent alterations will be commenced without having had a plan and a statement of the probable expenditure first submitted to the Council.Individual notepaper for the different departments will be done away with entirely, and in future, city notepaper will merely show the coat of arms.The feature of the road report was the committee\u2019s suggestion that the services of Messrs Milton Hersey Co, Ltd.be acquired as analysts,, chemists, engineers and inspectors of the street paving.The council, however, felt that this could be dispensed with at present and the matter was held in abeyance.The report of the City Hall committee recommended the appointment of Mr.,T.W.Grégoire for the preparation of the plans for the pio-posed municipal offices.General Com p's.'ms.A letter was received from the Julius Kayser Company complaining of the condition cf Frontenac Street, stating that the intense dust was 'firblung tè be à great source of trouble.The company intimated that it was given to understand that Frontenac Street would be paved this year and hoped that it would not be too late to undertake this work.Lack of police protection was commented upon by Mr.H.Goodhue in a letter to the council, in wh-.ch he stated that, in his oven district, policemen were never to be seen unless they were up testing the water pressure.Referring to a recent burglary in that district, the writer suggested that more adequate police protection be provided.Technical School Site.The only other question of importance dealt with by the Council was a somewhat extended discussion of the Technical School site proposition, Alderman Delorme advised that a» option had been secured on the Ball Street property for another two months and suggested that the Council hand over the $30,000 for this purpose.Alderman Tetreault favored referring the matter to the Finance Committee but Alderman Langis, supported by Aldeman Delorme, pressed for immediate action.The finance commitete accordingly retired, but lack of certain documents prevented them from arriving at any definite decision.The committee undertook however to meet the Technical School commission on Wednesday evening next.Aid.Langis proposed that the Council be authorized to pay for the land in question, and this was seconded by Aid.Tremblay.Aid.Newton: \u201cThe land has not decreased in size, but has gone up in price since the citizens voted upon it.The Fairbanks property can be secured for half the price, and it represents a much larger area.It is a business proposition and means the saving of a considerable amount of money to the ratepayers.From what I have heard, this ought to go back to the citizens for consideration.\u201d Aid.Langis: \u201cLet us come before (Cmtinued on Page 8.)
