UNI0NIST FEAR OF u. S.
Tories Think Ireland May Put
Envoy in WASHINGTON.

London. Jan. The alleged fear Of
Irish american influence on the projected
Irish Parliament was urged By Earl
Winterton in the House of Commons this
afternoon as a reason for amending the
Home Rule bill SO as to prevent the
Irish Parliament from passing resolutions
on subjects upon which it is TO be for
hidden to leglslate.
Earl WintertOn and two other Unionist
members. Sir Frederick Banbury and Sir
Gilbert Parker, contended that during a
time OF crisis the Irish Parliament could
adopt resolutions which would greatly
endanGcr the interests Of Great Britain
and 1t might even send a representative
tc Washington. They argued that the
stability OF the Nationalist party was
maintained by Irish-Amoricans and those
who paid the piper were entitled 10 call

Augustine Birrell, Chief Secretary for
Ireland. and John Dillon opposed the
amendment, which was defeated by 30
against 1Ji votes.

assure them of its ability to protect
American lives and property everywhere

alarming possibility.

est In conditions i'm Northern Mexico and

efforts to meet this country's desires for
protection there had proved fruitful. He

Department in the las few days, partial
~ at least to confirm Sehor Lascurafn' $
statements
The President was glad to hear OF the
reported Improvement in conditions in
Northern Mexico. and is said to have ex-
pressed the hope that the Madero govern
ment would be able TO cope with tie
situation SO far he has seen no reason
to believe 1t will be unable TO do so, bat
the assurances of the Mexican minister
were welcome
Sehor Lascurain's coming was unher-
aided. and his call at the White House
was arranged only to-day. He first paid
the formal call required OF all foreign Of
fcials who expect to discuss matters Of
state with the President. II lasted less
than ten minutes. but tonight he was in
conference with Mr.. Taft for almost an
hour. 1t was explicitly stated that the
President had issued no ''ultimatum,' and

that the retirement from public life Of

BRITISH PARTY SPLIT
Bonar Law Confers with ADJ
herentS on Tariff Reform.
PRESS P0LEMICS LIVELY
THE Times" the Thunderer Of
Other Days, Called Captive
Stepsister of Daily Mail

London. Jan. BIN his room in the
House of Commons yesterday Mr..
Bonar Law. leader of the Opposition,
had an informal conference with the
Unionist members representative Of
Lancashire constituencies. The pro-
ceedings were OF an extremely inter-
esting character. and. as the meeting
was private, there was no lack Of plain
speaking. Mr.. Bonar Laws reply was
firm in tone, and having alluded TO
the desirability Of unanimity in the
party, without which the position Of
leader was extremely difficult, he adj
vised his friends to wait until January
Lancashire division Of the National
Unionst Association, at which he
would make a statement.
Much interest was taken by Unionist
members generally in the meeting, and
for an hour or more. while it was
taking place, the lobby was filled with
little groups engaged in eager discus
sion. At one time a rumor circulated
to the effect that Mr.. Bonar Law had
told the deputation that no modifca-
ton Of the party's policy was possible,
and this had an obviously depressing
effect upon his followers outside.
When II was afterward made known.
however. that a door to a compromise
had at any rate been left open the
spirits Of the Unionists revived.
1t is a matter Of great importance at
the present juncture 10 keep clearly in
mind the approximate strength Of the
two UniOnist wings in the controversy
over this particular aspect Of tariff re-
form. Before the Christmas recess it
was estimated that 20 per cent of the
party in the House Of Commons was
averse TO food taxes. but THE Times"
says that in fact II per cent would
now be a generous estimate Of the
Unionist members who are making
this stand.
This figure may be correct. but it
certainly includes several Of the most
prominent men on the Unionist side
including Austen Chamberlain. Chan
cellor of the Exchequer in the last
Unionist Cabinet. and the eloquent F.
r. Smith
Meanwhile the Liberals are getting
plenty Of fun out Of the lively recrimi-
nations on the subject in the Unionist
press.
THE Daily Express" says: Neither
The Daily Mall nor its captive step
sister, The Times. may be looked
upon as Unionist journals. The Times
has more claim to be called a South
American advertising sheet than a rep
resentative political journal. whereas
The Daily Mail has long since been
outstripped by The Winning Post Ga
racing and boxing Sheet i'm matters af-
fecting the national welfare. Their
covert attacks on Mr.. Bonar Laws
leadership had a result. unexpected in
the plans of Uncle Five Heads (the
name given to Lord Northcliffe by s.
l.. Garvin in The Pail Mall Gazette).
for the Unionist party has rallied to
support its leader in such a manner as
to show that it will not permit dcta-
tion from such a source 1t would be
a hopeless and pitiful spectacle if the
party were in future to accept calmly
the orders given out by the Carmelite
Napoleon. This will not come to pass.
