The information Given publicly by tiie Premier was Brief and unsatisfying As to details. He said Only i have to inform the House that the conference summoned by his majesty the King held four meetings on the "1st, 22nd, 25rd and 24th of july respectively. The possibility of Denning an area to be excluded opera Tion of the government of Ireland was considered. The unable to agree either in principle or in detail upon such an area brought its proceeding s to a conclusion. A re port was drawn up by the speaker. The chairman of the conference and presented to his majesty the or. Asquith added Only that the amending Bill which the House of lords recently returned to the House of commons would be taken up next wednesday. The shortness of the conference indicates How firm the deadlock was notwithstanding the usual official secrecy some of the participants Felt bound to Tell their nearest supporters what had occurred and the secrets have been disseminated through widening circles.

Tyrone Lias been the Bone of Contention which neither us was willing to surrender. 1 the House of lords amending Bill in sch embodied the concessions the government is prepared to offer will come before the House of commons tuesday. The members the Cabinet have not yet disclosed their plans to the Liberal members but the talk in the lobby of the House tonight was that the Premier will say next tues Day that the government is prepared to proceed with the amending Bill in its original form if he believes the House of lords Are prepared to receive it As a peace measure. If not he will withdraw it and the Home Rule Bim unamended will become Law and be presented to the King for his Signa Ture. The Premier May. Then advise the King to dissolve parliament and a general election would follow. The passage of the Home Rule Bill without amendments excluding any part of Ireland from us provision would be the signal for Ulster to Start provisional government. The Liberal papers continue to at tack King George for the part he took in the conference. The nation says we do not quarrel with the King s idea of calling on both parties to find to a remedy but in his summoning of the chief rebels to the Palace and in his flattering speech about them there is so much endorsement of a certain kind of treason of which the higher Powers seem to approve that we wonder where British sovereignty and British constitutionalism Are being led speaking of the possibilities of a general election the Westminster Gazette a leading Liberal newspaper if the tory die hards had their Way and the government broke in confusion and sent its supporters to we polls without guidance the result Wight be a tory Victory but let there tie no mistake about what it would mean. Xot that the country has either the unionist or sir Carson s methods but that it continued on Page three july c.

Norris has made the following declaration of facts for their enlightenment the tactics of the government and their employees in the Campaign Here Are desperately unfair and dishonest. British fair play has been pushed to one Side and in fact is a thing of the past Here. Some of the polls in this division Are necessarily on the line of the Hudson Bay railway now being built and Many of the electors Are working on the i was anxious to go out along the line and personally the saturday free press thirty six pages fair the Gref test saturday july 25.
