The blaze was put out belore (he depart- ment arrived. The second fire started at 12.45 o'clock. Two old barus and an ice house at Clayton Park were burned. It is said that girls smoking cigar- | ettes caused the fire. Between 200 and 300 cars, attracted by the alarm, went to the park. The fire department responded but the engine was not sent as word was received from the park that its services were not needed. The buillings were old and the loss does nol excesad more than a few hundred dollars. The buildings were burned to the ground and the many people pres- ent used brush to fight little flames caused by sparks from the burnirg buildings. The wind was heavy, 30 Miles an hour, and it was feared that the park property was threatened. ----------c ma Ontario is to have a new Liberal Association, according to plans for- mujated by the Liberal party leaa- ers at Toronto Thursday, The fame of the body will be "The New Ontario Liberal Association."

GOVERNMENT WILLING TO LIBERATE THEM If De Valera Asks--How Will Difficulty. Be Circum- vented ? London, July 28.--1It has been s'a- ted frequently that the British gov- ernment was willing to release thirty- six members of the, Dail Eireann who are in prison or iternment camps, if de Valera but makes the request. It is said on the other hand, however, that the Sinn Fein are reluctart to ask for the liberation of their com- rades, lest it appear that they re- cognize Great Britain's right to im- prison representatives of the Irish republic. How this difficulty, if it ex- ists at all, will be circumvented is not apparent at the moment but the view is taken that certainly before very long the Dailities will be re- leased to participate in the Irish par- llament meeting, which it is believed. in many quarters has been arranged for. -------------- D.

Mannix of Australia 1s due to arrive by a Jap- anesg stea jon. Saturday, says an Exchange Telegraph :Company = des- patch from Melbourne.

Turkish agents have approached séveral sources seeking machine guns and ordnance, but they were not successful as the large pieces were delivered to the Allies or de-| stroyed under the entente's disarma- ment ultimatum. According to one agent the treaty of Versailles is not broken by the purchases of several million rifles, for which the Turks are negotiating, a8 the arms were smuggled frdbm Ger- many late fn 1918, and are now held boxed in a neutral port.

ASKED AUTHORITY TO HELP RAILWAYS \ -- Harding Desires Extension of Finance Corporation's Pow- er to Buy Securities.

There was no thought, he said, of asking congress for additional money, tems SIGNS POINT TO PEACE Uncanny Silence From Dublin Would Otherwise Create Uneasiness. London, July 28.---The uheanny silence Dublin maintains relative to the British government's proposals would create uneasiness but for the known fact that the Sinn Fein léad- ers are engaged in dally discussion of these proposals, which, as Rt. Hon. Austen Chamberlain revealed in the House of Commons, were only "outlines and principles." This is in- terpreted to mean that they afford a basis for continued~negotiations. According to reports current in Dublin what is called the "rock of Ulster* is the great obst.c® which must bé taken into consideration, It is clear from the statement of Lord 'Birkenhead, Lord High Chan- cellor, in the House of Lords, and Mr. Chamberlain in the Cdmmons that the government has not lost hope of a settlement. The former an- nounced that the government was hopeful it would be able to make a statement at an early date; Mr. Chamberlain went further, clearly in- dicating that the government ex- pected a late autumn session in order to pass legislation regarding peace in Ireland, These are not the only: favorable signs. Lloyd George has decided that be will not go abroad, as he had previously intended, 'for a vacation; he desires to be available for any possible development. Moreover, J. ©. Smuts has booked passage on a liner safling for South Africa on Friday, and it is believed he would not leave England unless convinced that the Irish negotiations were in line for peace. A writer in the Westminster Ga- zette points out that de Valera's de- mand for independence for Ireland is far from being an extravagant de- mand, as it is based on sound histor- ica] ground, namely, that under the Act of Parliament in 1783,.and still on the statute bcoks, Ireland is a kingdom under the British King, but uliited for the time peing under the treaty embodied in the Act of Union in 1800. !
