London.-The Daily Chronicle, fore
casting the governments proposed
representation scheme for ireland,
says legislative union will not be
touched, and that Irish representation
at Westminster and the powers of the

not be changed. The chief feature
will be the establishment Of an Irish
council at Dublin, directly elected,
consisting of 1903 members, the same
as the Irish representation in the

of councillors directly elected for
larger areas by electors having rata
Bile value exceeding 500, peers and
