To COMBAT ULSTER

London. June s.--John Redmond,
the Irish Nationalist leader. has taken
an important step in giving the full
countenance of the Irish National
part, to the national volunteer move
ment as a counterblast to the organ
ization of the Ulster volunteers Mr.
Redmond says that all the Nationalist
in Ireland will shortly be enrolled In
the Nationalist military organization.
These two opposing bodies, which
are now arming and drilling. are both.

have one hundred thousand men en-

or this number they say that $4,000
men have heen furnished with mauser
rifles and completely organized. while
the remainder have been supplied with
older and less modern weapons.
While the Nationalist volunteers are
reported to have already secured 100,-
600 men. It liz thought that most OF
them have not been furnished with

Washington, June 9.-~-The delay OF
the rebels in sending their reply to
the Niagara Falls mediators is causing
much comment in Washington. While
the A B. c. diplomats are waiting i'm
patiently for Carranza's answer, and
the mediation proceedings are at
standstlll, the first chief Is taking his
time.
1t was explained by representatives
of Carranza tonight that they had
not yet received his formal note to
the mediators. They had been try
ing unsuccessfully for two days TO
get into touch with him, and the de-
lay they contended was due altogether
TO physical conditions. They had not
been able. to reach him at Saltillo. BY
many in Washington these excuses
are beginning 10 be regarded witt,
suspicion. The impression is growing
that Carranza is playing for time I'M
til he learns whether or not the
Antillas cargo of arms Is landed. This.
1t was pointed out, might have a very
important bearing on the character Of
the answer that he will make to the
mediators.
Some light was thrown here today
on the note which the United States
government sent TO the mediators
yesterday. This liz the communica-
ton which It was suggested contains
proposals that will probably open the
way for the admission of Carranza to
the Niagara Falls conference.
The understanding here is that the
United States has recalled to the
nediators the conditions on which 1t
originally accepted medtation--that is.

St John, n. B., June 9.-Meagre
and disconnected stories coming in
here regarding the awful gale which
swept the Bay of Chaleur, between
the north coast of New Brunswick and
the Caspe coast of Quebec, on Thurs
day and Friday. OF last week, tell of
terribly tragedy. 1t Is variously
estimated that between one hundred
and one hundred and twenty five lives
went OUT during the two days.
The victims were fishermen, and
particularly sad feature of the tragedy
is that in most Of cases more than
one member of a family was taken.
The Bay of Chaleu fishermen ply
their craft In families. the father owns
the boat and his SONS sail with him
as assistants Thus 1t was that prac-
tically everyone of the fifty or sixty
boats hailing from Quebec and New
Brunswick fishing villages which put
to sea on Thursday last carried
father and sons. or older and younger
brothers, in their crew.
There Is but indifferent Geographic
communication with the fishing VIII
iages nesting around the coast of the
bay, and for this reason there has been
but little opportunity to get con-
nected idea Of what happened. The
boats. however. estimated between
fifty and sixty. put to sea on Thursday
last, and but very few of them have
since been heard from, while scores
of bodies have either been brought III
by other vessels, or have washed on
the shores. The first connected story
of the tragedy is told by Captain
