GENERAL SENTIMENT THROUGHOUT IRELAND FAVORS SETTLEMENT

(By Associated Press) DUBLIN, Feb. 9. There is a great weight of general sentiment throughout the country in favor of any settlement which w ill end the present chaos. Jrish Catholic bishops are foremost among those who are encouraging this sentiment. ' Between the most moderate and the most extreme Nationalists there is ibis one point of agreement, that the decision of the Irish people themselves must be supreme. Submission of their attitude to the electors and, the endorsement of that attitude by he coun

try's voters, is the basis on which Sinn Feiners rest their case. They say that endorsement must stand. New Election Favored. There is a considerable section of the populace, however, which believes the time has arrived for a fresh con.'ultation of the people that a new opportunity should be given for expression of the popular will. The suggestion is made that a formal referendum should be taken as to whether the people still adhere to the uncompromising Republican policy, or are willing to give the new Home Rule act a trial. Sir Edward Carson, for Ulster, has accepted, but Sirm Fein has refused the act. In neither case have the 1-eople themselves been consulted as to what they think of it. Would Make Fresh Start. There is even among Sinn Feiners a number who believe that it would be good tactics to accept the act as far as it goes, secure the election of Sinn Ffclners to the Southern parliament and obtain as much control of the Irish government as possible in the

same way as they have obtained control of most of the local authorities. They would then use their new position as the basis for a fresh advance. The argument is heard that de Valera and Arthur Griffith could do more for the cause in executive office than in jail, but that is not the dominant Sinn Fein view at any rate among the "responsible" leaders of the movement. Hence the suggestion to consult the rank and file.

MURRAY Alice Calhoun, Vitagraph's newest star, was first seen in a film drama scarcely more than a year ago. She gained popularity rapidly, and her promotion is largely the result of pleas in letters from motion picture patrons to Vita graph. Alice Calhoun appears in the stellar role of "Princess Jones," a stirring romantic comedy drama by Joseph Franklin Poland, visualized as a Vitagraph production, which will be shown at the Murray theater Thursday.
