MT. BaltOur oontsndcd that tho plan
outlined for dealing with the constG0u.

Mr.. Brico, chancellor OF the Dnchy
OF Lancaster, replying to MIR. Bsliuur,
declared that thr governments justifi-
cation iOf bringing the bill forward
was tho failure Of coercion. In regard
10 Ulster, the mouse ought not 70 judge
the situation by the bluster OF certain
memb.la.

II imperative to press for amendments
to many OF its provisions. freshmen
had always disputed the validity OF
the act OF union, aud n they accepted
this bill, anu with IL the supremacy OF
the imperial parliament based upon

would not exercise it, right TO Iegislate

the Irish oonelabulgry would remain
under Imperial control for Elk years,
according to the bill. Redmond hint.
cd that had thus been known before,
the echlsm IN the Irish party might
have been CLOSED. This utterance IL
regarded Rs prelude to tho reunion OF
tho factions.
