LONDON, March 26.-Late today he government published a state ment revealing g. comedy of errors. Sir Paget blundered forcing the off ..ers to choose between fighting and yesigning. They resigned. Then Col Seely. without informing the cab inc, of his intention, promised the of :icers that they could return to their regiments and he gave them written assurances that they would not have 70 fight the people of Ireland. The officers then returned to their re spective commands.
 Col. Seely has taken the entire blame for the present comedy of CT TOTS and is striving to save the mem bers of his party and the cabinet by being the scapegoat

LIBERAL CABINET NEAR ITS FINISH
ondon Papers Predict the End of Liberal, Rulers and Say Cabinet is
 ooomed-e'ame Col see'y'

LONDON, March 26.-The liberal cabinet is doomed to fall in few days, according to the best informed yoliticals and in the opinion of all she press in this city. Even the Lib erals themselves believe that nothing but an appeal to the country faces them in the present crisis with a cer- r sainty that they will be defeated.
 Col. J. B. Seely, minister of war; is blamed by his fellow cabinet mem oers for the present plight of the Liberal party, because he had allowed .he officers of the regiments at Dub lin, who refused to obey orders, to re turn to their regiments with the promise that they would not be call ed upon to fight the people of Ire land. It is this yielding to the sol fliers that has weakened the party and threatens the downfall of the cabinet.
 Critics of the war minister claim that he should have arrested all the yebelious officers and have severely punished them for mutiny and to have ,orced the army to obey the govern nent
 Events are moving rapidly and it is expected that the crisis will come to- day when members of the opposition A will put interpellations to the gov -rnment.

STRUCK STREET CAR
SMASHED HIS AUTO

The auto drvcn by DIR. Il. W. Walton
aud q strcctcar in caarge Of Motorman
L. Shcdcck smashed together at the
intersection Of MarioN and Summer
streets at 1870 Saturay afternoon and
the uto was badly damaged in the on
counter but none OF the occupants of
either ear were hurt. The doctor was
attempting to make the turn od Marion
street to avoid hitting the stroetcor
which was crossing IN front Of him. but
as the street at this place is narrowed
by The parks in the middle Of tae street
he was unable to avoid the smash ana
crashed into the sido of the streetcar,
brcurlug in the front end Of his ma.
chine and smashing both front wheels.
Dr. Walton says he did not see the
eur until IL was too late 20 avoid the
smaslnp and the slippery pavement pre-.
vented an abrupt turn on the narrow
street. No particular blame for tao nc.
cidenl is attached to either party.
