LEADERS TAKE
UP HOME RULE DEBATE
[Continued From First PageI

Probably this was the first time that
John E. Redmond and John Dallon.
the Irish Nationalist leaders, had ever
exchanged greetings with their sover-
eign, as 1t had been the practice of
Nationalist members of Parliament to
remain away from all functions
where members of the House of Com
mons were likely to be brought into
contact with royalty.
Apparently Friendly
The meeting of the Conservative
and Liberal leaders on such intimate
footing was apparently friendly but
could not have been cordial, as Pre-
mier Asquith and Andrew Bonar Law
have been barely on speaking terms,
as Mr.. Law practically accused the
Premier in the House of Commons of
lying about recent government plans
to suppress the Ulster volunteers.
The Marquis of Landsdown. leader
of the Unionists in the House of Lords.
and David Lloyd George, two of the
other conferees, represent the most
extreme aristocratic and democratic
schools of British politics and are
generally believed to be bitter per-
sonal enemies.
At the same time the members of
the Irish Nationalist and Unionist fac
tons could not have felt much pleas
ure in finding themselves in such close
association.
Since personal feelings among poll
ticians in the United Kingdom never
ran so high as at present, the atmos-
phere OF the gathering could not have
been otherwise than extremely chilly
and formal.
After a brief conversation, King
Nit n
about noon, leaving the conferees to
their deliberations.
Entitled to Course
According to the Daily News, which
represents the section of the radicals
that resent the Kings interference,
the Kinll intends to withhold assent
from the Home Hule bill unless the
amending bill is presented at the same
time for the royal assent, the court
view being that the King is entitled
to take this course because the intro
ductIon of the amending bill has
vitiated the procedure under the Par
lament act.
For the first time in English reign
King George is criticised strongly
though respectfully by some of the
important Liberal newspapers, which
express the belief that II his ma iesty
forced the holding of conferences on
the Home Rule question he over
stepped the constitutional duty Of a
limited monarch and interfefred with
the RIGHTS of Parliament and the re-
sponisibility of the Cabinet
Several Liberal members of the
House of Commons opposed to con-
ference to-day called a caucus of their
sympathizers. which probably will
adopt resolutions of similar charac-
ter to those passed by the labor MEM
bers last night referring to the undue
interference Of the crown. which the
labor members declare was called to
defeat the purposes of the Parliament
act
The conference at Buckingham
Palace. after being in session for only
about an hour and a half adjourned
for the day, but will meet again to-
morrow.

Would Close Ball
Parks If Necessary

Governor Tener, as president of the
National League. said relative to the
baseball situation:
In my opinion, the question in
volved in the Players Fraternity con-
tention In no sense justifies a strike,
which, If called. would jeopardize not
only the players means of livelihood,
but menace the best interests of the
game as well.
IF, however, the players should
walk out on such flimsy pretext.
then organized ball should not further
recognize a fraternity or its members
responsible for such an act-even to
the end. as Mr.. Johnson states, the
closing of our ball parks"
