Threats Long known.
Threats Of a crisis in the army il a
movement was undertaken against
Ulster have long been, current. 1t is
believed the sudden marching is iim-
tied to a number Of troops ordered SO
military authorities might gather an
idea of how widespread the threaten
ed dtsaffectton was. Necessary steps
to replace the resigned officers were
taken after a conference with the
king.
The number of vacancies is rapidly
increasing. 1t seems possible that all
regular regiments may have been re-
placed, as the officers and men express
dialnclination to taking the offensive
against the men with whom they have
been fraternizing. A momentary shift
ing Of the immediate CRISIS from Cl-
ster to the army, may give the peace
makers the desired opening.
