TO MEET ON AUGUST SIXTEENTH Greenwood Has Authority to Release All Members of Sinn Fein Assembly Who Are Now in Jail on Receipt of Summons to Attend Meeting. A despatch from Dublin says: It. has been officially announced that the Dail Eireann has been summoned to | meet in Dublin, August 16, for the 1 purpose of reviewing Lloyd George's offer and deciding upon a reply. The attitude of Ulster also -wild be 1 cor/sidered. The summons will be sent to all Dail members, including those in jail, . ear.i it is taken fos granted in Dublin; that they will be immediately relcas-| ed, although no formal request for^ their freedom will be made. A despatch from London says: ' The British Cabinet has already given power to Sir Ham > r Greenwood. Chief Serretary for Ireland, to release Dail Eirennn members should it seem advisable, and it is understood he will take the receipt in jail of sommons' to attend the DaM Eireann as a re- quest for the release of the prisoners. Many are in Bpjlith jails and can- not reach Ireland before Sunday or Mcnday at the earliest. Sensational stories were published in seme English papers on Thursday,; stating that Ulster had definitely and finally refused to have art/thing to do with, the peace proposals, and insisted ' upon retaining her present status. ' These stories have been officially de- nied. Ulster has made no decision yet, for the reason that no formal con- versations have taken place between representatives of the North and the South, but the informal talks are still going on, and it is believed are pro- gressing favorably. Sir James Craig returned to Belfast from London Thursday morning and attended the meeting of the Ulster Cabinet, at which all members were present. No statement was given, but it is understood it was occupied with routine matters, such as ap- pointments and plans for the session of Parliament, etc. It is expected in Belfast that for- mal proposals soon will be received! from Dublin, and it is likely the framing of rheae will form part of ihe work of the coming meeting of the DaiF Eireann. Great pressure is being brought on the Belfast leaders both by the Gov- ernment in London and Belfast busi- ness men for a settlement by the Government, because it is anxious for an Irish peace in view of the general international situation, and by the business men because they have been hard hit by the Southern boycott of Belfast traders and industry.

This is said to be the first Ital-ian line that has been established between Italy and Canada. Th-a reason attri- buted for the ir.3ve is that Italian navigation tinei between the United States ar.d Italy are having great dif- ficulty in finding business for their liners at the present time, due to the enactment of the present United States immigration law. According to information here, other steamship companies are also occupied on the problem of finding other fie'ds for the surplus Italian population and it is expected that one or two more Italian companies will commence sailing to Canada, divert- ing their present New York sen-ice to that effect.
