Final Settlement. |
Of Irish Questton

Michael Collins’ Visit to London Said to Assure
Satisfactory Settlement of Whole Irish Question.

(Special to The Guardian)

LONDON, June 18—The arrival
of Michael Collings here today is

final understanding on the Irish
situation. Interviewed by the Daily.
Mail’s Dublin correspondent prior
to his departure for London Mr.
Collins said he did not expect: that
he would have to stay in London
more than twenty-four hours be-
cause things are well enough and
I trust we will bring- matters to a
satistactory conclusion with the
British Government.

LONDON, June 13—Practially
a complete agreement on the re-y
vised text of the Irish Free State
constitution was reached by Prime
Minister (Lloyd George ;and Ar.
thur Gritfith (Monday ‘afternoon.
Continuing the stalling policy to
delay the announcement until Fri-
day's elections, Mr. Griffith post-
poned his return to Dublin until
tcnight and Winston Churchill pat

off his’ Irish statement in the
House of Commons until Thursday
Thus, it is hoped that the ballots
will be cast on Friday before
Eamon De Valora can make capital
of the compromise agreed on here
to influence the voters’ against Col-
lin’s policy.

“We are highly pleased with thelnas been in effect in Groat Britain

success of the .negotiaticns and
Coiling and Griffith manifest sin-
cerity to work in harmony with the
Imperial Government,” said a
Downing ‘Street official yesterday
in commenting on. the situation.
Tomorrow there will be another
meeting to clear up a few odds
and ends, but the problem already
has ‘been solved satisfactorily.”
The Irish delegation it was asser-
ted, will probably find it impos-
sible to publish the constitution
in Ireland before the election, but
publication is not necessary and
the election will be held. Never.
theless, Mr. Churchill told Sir
Robert Horne that there weTe no
more Republican troops in Ulster.

Tribute to the
Late Rev. Julian
6. Jaynes

The press of Boston and West
Newton pays warm tribute to the
late Rev. Julian C. Jaynes who,
as previously announced in The
Guardian passed away at Borden,
this province, while on his way to!
his summer home at Keppoch with
Mrs. Jaynes and their three little
children, Helen, Julian C., and
Robert.

The Boston Globe publishes a
biography and photograph. The
Boston Herald also gives and ex-
tendeq sketch of his life and min-
istry. Following is an extract from
the Boston Transcript:

Rey. Julian ©. Jaynes, for
thirty-eight years minister of the
First Unitarian Church, West New
ton, died yesterday at Prince Hd.
ward Island, where he had been
in the habit of going for succes-

West Newton, had been in poor
health for some time. On Monday
he started with his family for his]
summer home which is just out-
side of Charlottetown, and he was
seized with a heart attack on ar.
riving at Borden.

Mr. Jaynes was born in Halifax
Younty, Va., in 1854. At the be-
gininng of the Civil War he re-
moved with hisparents to Connec-
(ticut. When he was ten years of
age he was taken to Wisconsin,
and subsequently entered the Uni
versity of Wisconsin in the class
of 7. For several years following
his graduation he taught school in
California,

In 1880 he returned East and
entered the Harvard Divinity
School from which he was gradu-
ated in 1884. He accepted a call
to the pulpit of the First Unitarian
Church in West Newton and was
ordained to the Unitarian minis.
try in 1885. In 1910 Mr. Jaynes’s
twenty-fifth aniversary in the pul
pit of that church was appropriate
sly observed.

We remained the active pastor

when his successor, Rev.
Phalen of Augusta, Me., was ap
pointed, (hereafter Mr. Jaynes
became, pastor emeritus. Mr.
Jaynes was one of the best known
mon in the Unitarian denomina-
tion and he was generally regarded
as a strong preacher, For over
twenty years he was a member of
The Tuesday Club.

He is survived by a second wife
who was Miss Laura M. Buliard
of West Newton, their marirage
taking place five years ago. Thera

Modifications

Proposed

In Taxation Measures
for Over $10 Suggested.

Stamp Tax on Receipts
Reduction in Stamp
Changes.

(Special"to The Guardian)

OTTAWA, June 13—The stamp
tax on receipts announced by Hon.
W. S. Fielding last evening is an
innovation in jCanada though it

since 1891. The Minister of Fin-
ance Jast evening confined his an-

provided for the imposition of the
pew tax. The regulations govern-
ing its operations have not yet
tbeon drafted nor has the bill which
will be ‘based on the resolution
been prepared. It is anticipated,
hewever, that the Canadian Act
will be based on the British Act
which is said to have given satis-
faction and to be a good revenue
producer, Generally speaking the
new proposall {provides that a
stamp of two cents be placed on
every receipt for the sum of $1(
or over and the stamp must be
affixed and paid for by the persor
who gives the receipts and it is
in the Discretion of him who pays

Tax and Certain Other

the stamped receipt therefore.
The tax .is not effective til next
January.

OTTAWA, June 13—Members

this morning are digesting the
amendment budget of Hon. W. 8.
Fielding and studying from Han-
sard the general arguments pre-
sented by the veteran Minister of
finance. ‘The second speech of
Mr. FYelding was a carefully stud-
ied effort the design of. which it
is obvious was to appeal to the
Progressives for support on the
pending division though he ©x-
pressed little hope of support from
the ranks of the official Conserva-
tive opposition, There is no doubt
that certain of the amendments
proposed ‘were pleasing to that
party as well as to other members
of the House. This 1s particularly
true of the reduction in the tex
on checks. The amendment to
the regulation for the valuation of
the goods of countries whose cur-
rency {s heavily depreciated, the
reduction in the excise tax on auto

the money to request and demand! mobiles and other minor changes.

Hearing Concluded in

Rum Robbery Case

Geo. Essory, Dan O’Brien and Edward Hennessy

Seat Up for Supreme Court Trial at Police

Court Yesterday

The police ‘court
yesterday when the preliminary
trial of Daniel O’Brien, in connec -
tion with the recent rum robbery,
again came up for hearing.

The court met at 9. a.m.

The Attorney-General announced
that he did not intend putting in
any further evidence at present.

‘The reading of Monday's evid-
ence was dispensed with,

Asked if he had anything to say,
O'Brien replied in the negative.
(Mr, Inman, counsel for prisoner,
said he had no witnesses to call.
iHis Honor said under the cir-
cumstances there was nothing else
to do but send the prisoner up for
Supreme Court trial.

‘The next case taken up was that
of the King ve. ‘Geo. Essory, on a
similar charge.

iMr, Inman, K.C., and ‘Mr, D. EB.
Shaw, appeared for the prisoner,
John Diamond, night watchman
was the first witness called by the
Attorney-General. tHe gave his
testimony similar in effect to his
statement on (Monday. He saw the
puncheons being loaded and hauled
away, but could not swear it was|{
Hennessey’s jigger. He knew the
prisoner, Geo. \Hssory. He saw him
on the morning of the robbery com-
ing out with OlBrien from the front
door of ‘Carter & ‘Company. He had
tried the front doors and side doors
before, and thoth were locked.

“Did you see anybody else there
besides the man who had the jig-
ger, and ‘Essory and O’Brien?”

“No, sir.”

Thos. McMahon, night watch-
He saw
the jigger coming from Sydney St.
going around Carter's corner, driv-
en by Edward Henneséey. At this
time he did not notice any other
man on the street; a woman came
wp on the other side of the street
and crossed over from ‘Farquhar:
son's to Prowse’s corner. He did
not recognize her. When witness
