BAN UPON ARMS
AR0USES ULSTER

nlIUUUlU ULUIIu1
EXCITED UNIoNIsTs FEAR 1T WILL
BE FOLLOWED BY
SEIZURE,
BELFAST, IRELAND, Dec. 7.-Great
excitement has been created among
the rank and Ale of the Ulster Unionists
by the royal proclamation prohibiting
the importation Of arms and ammuni-
ton into Ireland. During the night
large quantities Of rifles, bayonets. and
munitions OF war were moved from
Belfast to country towns in autonfo-
biles, for fear the government authori-
ties might put the Irish crimes act
into force and seize the war stores
already collected.
The customs authorities made their
first seizure under the terms of the
proclamation this morning, when they
detained eighty-nine cases of ammu-
milton and eight cases of rifles and
bayonets.
Almost simultaneously with the pro-
mitigation last night OF the royal pro-
clamation prohibiting the importation
of arms and ammunition into Ireland,
Premier Asquith made the longest step
toward the Cancellation OF the Uls-
terites that the government has taken
by announcing his acceptance of the
principles for basis of agreement
which Sir Edward Carson suggested
in his last speech. These principles
are:
a. That the settlement must not
be humiliating or degrading to Ulster.
t2) That listers treatment must not
be different or exceptional from that
melted out to the other parts OF the
United Kingdom.
f3.) Ulster must retain full protec-
ton OF the ir.pertal parliament.
90 The home rule bill must not
be such as to lead to ultimate separa.
ton of Ulster from Great Britain.
The premier said he agreed there
must be no ultimate separation of Ire
land from Great Britain, but with the
modification that there were peculiar
conditions making the application of a
cast iron or standardized system of
home rule to different parts of the
United Kingdom not practical He
added that the real and effective au-
thority, supreme and unquestionable,
must be retained by the imperial par
fiament.

only the most perfunctory efforts are made to determine their fitness to perfcrm the duties assigned to them from time to time.
 This lack of supervision and in- spection with respect to matters af- fecting the safety of trans in unax- plainable when the careful supervis- ion of all matters directly affecting the revenue of the roads is consid- cred. The auditing and checking sqstems used for detecting the dis honesty of employees are marvels of ingenuity and careful attention to detail but means of determining whether trains are operated in ac- cordance with the requirements of safety and inconformity with the rules are almost entirely lacking.
 High speed was an important con- tri5uting cause of several serious ac- c-dents during the past year. On many roads there is no limit to the speed at which passenger trains are allowed to run. Enginemen are thus encouraged to run their trains at ex- cessive speed in an effort to make up time lost on schedules that are in many cases already sufficiently fast

 Among the important recommends tions for new Legislation are the fol lowing
 That one period be fixed for the beginning of all actions relating to transportation charges and that that period be within three years from the completion of the service as to which damages are claimed.
 That a carrier which fails to de mand payment Of charges for any transportation service within a period of 90 days shall be deemed guilty of giving a rebate to the shipper
