Rumours of important step by Ulster discredited by times Belfast correspondent. From the free press own Cor respondent in London., registered in accordance Wilth the copy right act of London july past two Days have witnessed a great hardening of feeling among liberals throughout the country. They demand that there must be no More going Back no More yield ing in the demand for increased territorial concessions to Ulster. They believe the government in its anxiety to avoid civil strife has Given suspicion of weakness. There is undoubtedly a general though we believe ill founded suggestion that the government is giving at the Knees and suing for mercy in a vain attempt to conciliate its says the British weekly. Liberals further believe that the moment has come for reassertion of the. Authority of parliament feeling that the very essence of representative government is at stake. Their alarm has been aroused by statements such As that in the morning Post which says the army counts the House of lords counts the King counts but the House of commons is treated with contempt by a government which tended to make it believe Ulster bluffing. The conviction still exists that there is much Bluff in the Ulster preparations and Many responsible liberals Here still Point Blank refuse to believe that Ulster will carry its preparations to the they Are convinced that any trouble will be Only the old Belfast riots on somewhat larger Scales easily suppressed by the authorities. This determination to ignore the people which is surprising y common among one Section of the rank and file of the party presents the one danger Point in the situation. The main topic of internist now a will the government withdraw the amending Bill altogether and restore it to its original form or exclude the time limit and add the . Offered at the guards incident. Cheers. Nationalist members strongly advocate the total withdrawal of the amending Bill or at least the withdrawal of the. The six years limit. They declare these concessions which they dislike were offered As part of the Price of peace. The unionists have refused the bargain therefore the Bill should go but this is not the general View. It is anticipated that the govern ment will re Amend a Bill in com Mittee returning it to the lords with their final terms incorporated in it these terms embodying part of the con Cessions informally offered last week. Liberals have been much encouraged by the incident when the Irish guards cheered Redmond and Dillon after leaving the conference and by a similar incident recently in Dublin. If the unionists have the officers we have the soldiers on our they say. The unionists Are More convinced than Ever that an Early general elec Tion is inevitable despite anything the government May do Public opinion generally agrees. Even the daily citizen the. Labor Organ in its political gossip gives its personal opinion that the general election will be in the autumn. Sinister rumours. Sinister rumours Are circulating Here that the Ulster Council intends to take some important step immediately pos Sibly this week end and there ominous air about Many of this morn ing s reports from Ireland. Singularly enough the times Bel fast special correspondent who has been generally an alarmist declares for the next few Days i believe too much importance need not be attached to the various disquieting rumours such As that of general mobilization which Are flying the average citizen wants Settle ment. Apart from the politicians everyone expresses amazement impatience and incredulity at the Situa Tion where we Are faced with the possibility of civil War Over the division of one Irish county. The King s action throughout the situation continues to arouse the approval of the Man in tha Street who bluntly declares he would like to Knock the Heads of the poli together until they come to terms. Chester.

Over one Hundred thousand men Are in of arms ready for any nationalists satisfied. The nationalists express open satisfaction at tha outcome of the con says the times correspondent and suspect tha t the opposition never intended to make any attempt for a Compromise. Their expectation is that the government will pass the Home Rule Bill and will put up on the unionist party the onus of accepting or rejecting the original of Fer of an amending Bill plus to abolition of the time limit.
