THE New York Tribune's Lon0 cor
respondent reviews the situation in
Ireland, which has been sadly muddled
by recent conflicting reports. He con-
tradiGts the rumor that Mr.. Forster has
ut any time offered his resignation, and
intimates that while Mr.. Chamberlain
is the leading opponent of coercion, he
will not leave the cabinet. 1t is plain
that the force policy has come to be
regarded as political as well as pub
lie necessity. The government can
command n very large majority from
the opening of the session, if coercive
measures are proposed. If they show
signs of weakness and vacilation, they
may find themselves in minority be-
fore they have been in office year
Mr.. Forster is warmly praised for his
patience, judgment and decision. New
err the domestic history of the United
Kingdom has there been more press
ing need Of all the best qualities of
practical craftsmanship.
