Irish Plan to Pass Their Own Reprisal Tariff Rumor Prime Minister UacDonald Intervenes With Offer Which May End Dispute. Dublin. A rumor that Trime Minister MacDonald of Groat Britain had intervened with an offer that might ret tie the Irish Free State's dispute with Britain was current here today as a tariff war between tho two countries impended. The free state government announced Wednesday night an intention to meet new British duties on its goods with a retaliatory' tariff of its own against Great Britain. Early in the morning the cabinet of President Eamon De Valera met, with William Norton, chairman of th. labor party, present. The Free State's cabinet decided to launch the tariff war by intro ducing an emergency bill in the Dail Eireann Thursday to deal with the situation created by British duties of -0 percent ad valorem on the principal Free State products, nrch as livestock, dairy products, bacon and pork. The British duties were imposed to recoup losses to the British treas ury sustained thru the Free State's default of land annuity payments, the government of President De Valera having failed to make a half yearly payment of 1.500.000 pounds (approximately $7,500,000 at par) at the end of June. The bill, which would be rushed into law before the dail's summer re cess begins at the end of this week. would confer on the executive coun cil the same powers as the British government obtained from parlia ment, it was officially stated. The council would be enabled to impose duties of an unspecified amount on any particular description of goods imported into the Irish Free State. President De Valera exhorted the Irish people in the dail to "stand firm." He declared that so far as his government was concerned the deci sion to demand an international tribunal for arbitration of the land annuities dispute was irrevocable. (The British government has insist ed on an empire tribunal.) HOWARD TALKS FOR INDIANS New York. Plant; for conducting the democratic presidential cam paign reached a point where Frank lin I).

After the gov ernor completes his sea cruise the plan wiil be submitted to him for approval. Then it will be announced in New York by James A. Farley, new national chairman. Dr. Louis Howe. Roosevelt aide announced receipt of a letter from Edgar Howard of Nebraska, who has been commissioned by the tribal council of the Winnebago tribe of Indians of Winnebago. Neb., to con gratulate the democratic nominee on behalf of "the one class of our peo ple who come very close to meeting the full measure of your own 'forgot ten man." The letter expressed a hope that if Roosevelt were elected his heart would not beat "in har mony with that hideous bureaucracy and red tape system which has so long harrasscd and hurt the average American .-Indain." GRAND JURY CLOSES WORE Winston Salem, N. C.

The measure was reconsidered DO to 23 cn motion cf Senator TMngham rep.. Conn.) to permit several op ponents of the plan who were absent Wednesday to voto. That (his was the end of the bill for the session w-n agreed upon gen erally. The action came even while v.crd circulate.' r.t the rapitol that Provident Hoover would veto the mcr.rure if passed.

Marines Trudge io Capitol Hill but Soon Beoart Called to llaintain Order on the Ground of tlis Capitol, But Not Heeded There. Washington. A series of mind changing acts by congressional and police authorities resulted in a com pany of marines being dispatched to keep crder on the capitol grounds, where hundreds of bonus Keeking veterans trudged back and forth, but in the end the ex-soldicrs were eft as before. The marines were wtihdrawn al most immediately, and their pres ence was called a misunderstanding. Vice President Curtis, Speaker Gar ner, Rear Admiral Rutler, command ant of the local navy yard, and Po lieo Superintendent Glassford then conferred at length. The upshot was that Glassfcrd ordered the capitol grounds cleared. Rc-fore he could get reinforcements to put the order in effect Senator Ringham interceded. Glassford re versed the order and permitted the trudging of the demonstrators to continue as it has for two nights and two days past. The mc:i were kept on tho move by bluecoats. They sang and chatted as they walked. There was a fairly strong inti mation that Senator Ringham had been in touch with President Hoo ver before he approached Glassford. The police head's statement to Vice President Curtis that he had not enough police to keep up the itrong guard around the nation's legislative temple had led to the marine ex pedition. Curtis conferred with Speaker Garner. Roth told the ser-gcants-at-nrms of the senate and house to obtain adequate protection. The military were called.
