London. March 24.-"There will
certainly be no dissolution of parlia-
ment until home rule for Ireland is
passed"
This statement was made to the
Associated Press today by John -
Redmond, leader of the Irish Nation
alist party. 1t is said that second
reading OF the bill will be taken up
in the commons March 80.
Associated Press.
London, March 24.-Dissolution of
parliament may be hastened BY
events of the last few days, according
to an opinion expressed today in po-
litical circles. The surrender of the
government to the Officers of the
army who declined to serve against
ulstermen is said to be particularly
significant. Ii Is said that Irish ma
tionalists will not accept home rule
with Ulster permanently excluded
while the government found it i'm
possible to compel Ulster to come
under Dublin government
II is argued that way out of the
difficulty is to hold general cleo
tion and apparently no one will be
surprised If the government during
the second reading of the home rule
bill next week would offer to dissolve
parliament on condition of home
rule. The Welsh dsestablishment
and plural voting bills will be passed
The dissatisfaction in the rank and
file of the Liberals with the govern
ment's treatment OF army officers is
another factor which is likely to
hasten the general election. Many
raidacls would like to join the forces
of the labor members and make an
appeal to the country on the refusal
of the officers to act against the
striking workmen.
Col. John Ceeley. secretary of state
for war, today promised the house of
commons that he would lay on the ta-
BILE tomorrow all the material and
documents necessary to clear up the
whole mystery of the recent crisis
among officers of the army in Ire
land.
Seeley gave the promise when ask
ed to affirm or deny the statement
that he had the written assurance
given by Gen. Hubert Couch that the
troops would not be used to force
home rule on Ulster.
