REDMOND LAUNCHES GRAVE WARNING AT
 ASQUITH CABINET

London, May 13-The declaration that the Governme ent is preparing an amendment to the Home Rule bill has caused John Redmond, leader or the Irish. Nationalists to launch grave warning to the Asquith Cabinet. The sNationaIists are considerably Wroth over this proposal.
 John Redmond said: 'If the hopes of peace are to be realized the pest course would be by an amending p1li, but the Premier announces that. even if the efforts to bring about peaceful settlement fail he will introduce an amending bill. That is a most serious decision and I cannot commit myself to the approval of such course nor to the announcement thereof While the peace parIeys are supposed to 'pe going on and when there is still hope of a peaceful settlement.
 q certainly hope such circum- stances will never arise. hope that if an amending bill is introduced it will be for the purpose of making effective an agreement that has been reached between the parties, but if an amending bill is introduced after the failure to reach an agreement hold myself absolutely free to deal ethere- with
 Premier Asquith's statement came as a complete surprise. The Ma tionalists were greatly perturbed over his q ec1aration and the opposition was equally dissatisfied. They contend that the Governments promise of an amending bill is an admission that the original bill was defective, but the Government at the same time refuses to disclose the nature of the amend ments.
