Irish League doing business as usual
as it is learned that the cabinet have
decided not to proclaim it yet, this
being the result OF the meeting this
week. While it is not thought best
to proclaim the organization or sup
press any OF the local branches still
the policy Of making all offenders
against the law amenabie to the law
for their acts will be vigorously fol-
lowed The decision not to proclaim
the league is due largely to the in1u.
ence of Arthur Balfour, first lord Of
the treasury, whose attitude upon
Irish suppression is we'll known, as
well as the influence Of George Wynd.
ham, chief secretary for Ireland, who
has been opposed to the policy all the
time

though powerful section Of the min.
istry favors suppression of the league,
such step would be extremely diff
cult, as it would be likely to invol 7e

ham and Mr. Atkinson, attorney-gen'
eral for Ireland.
