It was a fight between Irish Nationalists and the King's Own Scottish Border­ ers, and has aroused great excitement All the wounded are in hospitals and It (is reported that at least seven of tttem are dying. Among the most se­ verely hurt is M. J. Judge, prominent officer in the Nationalist volunteers. The fight was caused when the sol­ diers seised a consignment of contra- hand arms destined for th» National­ ists. The arms had been landed at Howfch, a seaport not far from Dublinl and were brought to this city shortly After noon. The authorities, having received •ecret information of the arrival of the riflee and ammunition, confiscated them as soon as they were brought in- , «ide the limits of Dublin. The Nationalists, who had hoped that the arms would be available for use in the threatened clash with the Ulster army, bitterly resisted the seiz­ ure, first in riots then in actual bat* tie with the troopers. The King's Own Borderers, one of the "prize" regiments in the British army, formed a hollow square about the confiscated arms. Presenting a •tone wall front to approach from all directions, the soldiers stood on guard •waiting the onslaught of the Nation­ alists. When the expected charge camo, tome of the Nationalists bearing arms «nd others provided with stones and •imilar missiles with whicji to pelt the soldiers, the command was given to fire. \ ; Only one volley was fired, two men •ad two women jfalling dead in the forefront of the attackers while the wounded dropped all about them. The Nationalists then retreated beat^ ixtg their wounded with them and or­ der was immediately restored. It is feared that other clashes may follow this, the opening skirmish of the home rule warfare, as there is intense bit­ terness throughout Dublin over the low of life. & Excited crowds filled the streets at might, many of the men bearing rifles. The King's Own Scottish Borderers are confined to their barracks to pre­ vent an attack. A mob shortly after nightfall stoned a street car in which . • soldier in uniform was a passenger. ffrS V • J- V H4& NAMED FOR PEACE PARLEY and Carbajal Appoint.Twp Each to Meet at 7 8altillo. til ":J v; .-w* .'V fu.V.'S* •_ Washington, July 28.--Word has reached the state department from Mexico City thai Carranza and Carba­ jal have each named two representa­ tives to meet at a peace parley at Sal- tillo, Thoee appointed by Carbsjal- are: David Gutierrez Allende, Justice of the supreme court, and General Lauro Villar, president of the military court.

'%• £ • Ifilr tork. July 24.--The IfeKt I0k> road to be investigated by the inter­ state commerce commission Is the Rock Island, the inquiry will begin next week. Joseph W. Folk, who conducted the oommlsison's Investigation of the New York, New Haven & Hartford, is ex­ pected to appear at the offices of the company, 14 Wall street, next week with a corps of expert acoountanta to make a preliminary examination of tbe company's accounts. A director of the Rock Island de­ clared that the company would wel­ come an investigation by the Interstate commerce commissioners. He said an investigation would only bring to light mistakes made by the Rock Island In its investments in other propeitlee, such as the loss of about 5(15,000,000 in the acquisition and disposition of the St. Louis & San Francisco; the loss of about $6,000,000 Iz. the purchase and sale of the Chicago ft Alton, and about $2,000,000 loss In the purchase of coal properties. New Haven directors will fight to a finish the effort of the United States government to force them to part with the control of the Boston 4b Maine stock on the basis demanded by the Massachusetts legislature, namely, that each certificate shall bear a stamp stating that the state has a right af any time to buy the stock "at the fair value thereof in accordance with aw." There will be no effort on the part of the New Haven directors, it was Bald, to prevent the government going ahead with the dissolution suit orderei by President Wilson, and there is nj in­ tention of negotiations for a "cotsent decree" which would prevent long lltl* gation.

"Washington, July 25. -- President Wilson has withdrawn the nomination of Thomas D. Jones of Chicago as a member of the federal reserve board and so accepts the first defeat he has received at the hands of congress. Mr. Jones was the president's "per­ sonal choice" for the board. The presi­ dent so announced several weeks ago in a letter to Senator Owen, chairman of the banking and currency commit­ tee. This letter was the signal for re­ newed efforts on the part of the sena­ tors opposing Jones. Their triumph was signalized by the president's an­ nouncement The friends of the administration made every effort to swing enough votes to confirm Jones. They were at least five short. The attacks on the president, on Jones and on the Demo­ crats finally became so bitter that the Democratic leaders went to the White House and frantically urged the presi­ dent to give In. The climax came when a group of senators who have been regarded as friendly to the administration in the fight sent word to the president that if he forced them to vote they could not and would not support him and hta candidate. Among these senators were Clarke of Arkansas, Johnson of Maine and Shtvely of Indiana. There were eight or nine others In the group, sufficient to convince evon the presi­ dent that the outlook was hopeless. The president did not take his defeat gracefully. There is an underlying note of bitterness in his letter to Mr. Joties, according to his request that his name be withdrawn, and with a certain amount of sarcasm he refers to Sen- atnrii Repd of Missouri and Hltrhrock of Nebraska, who were leading the fight against Jones, as "members of the majority who have usually acted with" the Republicans.

New Orleans, July 27.--Two bandits held up the New York flyer of the Louisville & Nashville road, Juet out­ side of New Orleans, killed Brakeman Thomas Elgin, shot at the porter of one of the sleepers, robbed the con­ ductor of $19.50 and a transfer man of $3.50 and then disappeared in the dark­ ness of the surrounding swamps. The police of New Orleans sent a posse of 50 men to hunt down the pair, and the railroad company sent out a special train with deputies. The men boarded the train at New Orleans and remained in one of the sleepers until the limited slowed for the crossing. Then one of them pulled the bell cord, bringing the train to a stop. Instantly the leader, a tall man, who appeared wearing a dark suit of clothes and a white bandage around his face, pulled his revolver and com­ pelled Conductor Potter to throw up his hands. While Potter was covered, with the gun, the smaller bandit went through his pockets, taking $19.60. Just as they finished this work and were starting toward the rear of the train, a transfer man from New Or­ leans entered the car. The robbers' searched him and obtained $3.50. Eglin came in about this time, and one of the robbers coolly fired at him, putting a bullet in the brakeman's ab­ domen and killing him almost instant­ ly. One of the negro porters also en­ tered the car, and was fired at. but dodged out of sight unharmed. By this time the train was humming like a bee hive with angry passengers, and the leader of the band blew a whistle that hung around his neck and ran to' the door of the coach and sprang to the ground. His partner fol­ lowed. Standing there in the dark they fired half a dozen Bhots down the length of the cars, driving everyone in­ side for a time. Then they ran down the road for a distance and vanished. Springfield, 111.--The state board of agriculture has completed arrange­ ments to royally entertain the veterans of the war during the next exposition, .and there will be no lack of cordiality in the reception given the soldiers of the late Spanish war as well. Due recognition has been given to the few repreeentatives of the Mexican war, who have visited the state fair on old soldiers' day and they will be given a cordia) greeting as heretofore. As the years pass by and the de­ pleted ranks of the soldiers of the Civil war evince the half century of time since the surrender to General Grant of General Lee's army, there is more of an effort on the part of state fair officials and citizens generally to greet and entertain the boys in blue In the most fitting manner. Old soldiers' day at the state fair of 1114 will long be helg in the most pleasant memory by the veterans of the Civil war. The deeds of valor of the boys in blue will be presented by eloquent speakers with bright records made on the firing line.

No public grounds in the United States, with the possible exception of those at Washington, can compare with those outlined by the artists com- pri£lng the state art commission. The plan contemplates the acquiring by the state of four square blocks of ground lying directly south of the state house, to be held for sites of additional state buildings as required, and the land­ scaping'of the entire capitol grounds into one beautiful park, as a Betting for the buildings. Only a few houses how stand on'the proposed site and it is estimated that a tremendous saving to the state can be made by securing the land at once instead of waiting until it is actually needed, when it might be necessary to condemn and pay for many costly buildings. The ground is owned prin­ cipally by Mrs. George F. Seymour, widow of Bishop Seymour of the Springfield diocese of the Episco­ pal church. Members of the art commission who have given the matter thorough con­ sideration and are unanimous in their recommendations to Governor Dunne on the subject are: Martin Roche and John Devereaux York of Chicago, architects; Lorado Ttift and Leonard Crunelle of Chicago, sculptors; Ralph CUarkson and Frederick C. Bartlett of Chicago, painters; Senator Hugh S. Magill, Jr., of Springfield, and J. C. Vaughan of Chicago, citizens. Action was brought about through the activi­ ties of the Illinois centennial commis­ sion, which hopes to make the dedicar tion of the first additional state build­ ing one feature of the Illinois centen­ nial celebration in 1918. Following is the text of the report Just submitted to Governor Dunne by the state art commission: "The state art commission of Illinois begs leave to report that in compliance with your request a meeting of the commission was held in Springfield on ance at the otate fair, will give tl\e soldiers a greeting worthy of their I M&y 29, and careful consideration was valor and in keeping with the patriot­ ism for which Illinois is noted.

A meeting of the joint board of min­ ers and operators of the Seventh sub- district, embracing the coal fields of southren Illinois, with a union mem­ bership of about twenty-four thousand, was^ held In Duquoln to form a new scale for the local mines. The mat­ ters discussed Included double shift, narrow and motor work, }hese having been referred to the committee by the joint scale committee of the state or­ ganization. The miners were repre­ sented by R. T. McAlister of Duqoin, T. J. McDon&M of Chrlr'r^cr and John A. Tuttle of Harrisburg, while James Forester of Duqoin, Robert Searles and E. C. Zoiler of Chicago represented the operators. The state miners" examining board also held a session here, at which applicants for miners' certificates, were examined. I on the capitol grounds, it is the opin­ ion of the commission that this would not be advisable. Such a plan would mar the architectural symmetry of the capitol and further Incumber grounds that are hardly sufficiently spacious for the capitol as it now is. It would reduce the amount of light and air in the rooms on that side of the capitol, and would not be a satis­ factory solution of the problem when there is taken into consideration the amount of additional space that will soon be needed to meet the rapidly in­ creasing demands of the state. "Second--After carefully consider­ ing the possibilities of obtaining addl tional grounds, the commissioin would recommend that the state should ac­ quire and own the land adjoining the capitol grounds on the south, lying be­ tween Spring street on the west and Second street on the e^st, and extend­ ing to Edwards street on the south. "Third--The commission would rec» ommend that a comprehensive plan be prepared showing the location on this land of such new buildings as would be necessary to meet fully the needs of the state for additional space, giving their architectural grouping in relation to each other and in relation to the capitol building and including the landscaping of the entire capitol grounds as thus enlarged. It is the opinion of the commission that a com­ plete plan should be outlined, but that all of the buildings need not be erected at one time, as the necessary additions could be built as the urgency of their needs may require. "Fourth--The commission would suggest that the floor plans of all floors of the capitol buildings be made, and a section showing the height of each story. This would greatly facili­ tate work fin any additional buildings connected with or architecturally re­ lated to the capitol. The commission would further suggest that tentative plans be prepared in accordance with the above recommendations and that an estimate of the probable cost of the additional grounds and buildings be obtained, and that full Information be secured as a basis for a more compre­ hensive consideration of the entire proposition."
