military and naval movements in
Ulster. That fact stands undisputed.
March IA Mr.. Cubitt secretary Of the
army council, wrote a confidential let
ter to Gen. Sir Arthur Paget. COM
mander-in-chief of the troops in Ire
land. This letter. which was subse-
quently published by the government:
said that the government had received
reports that attempts might be made
lin various parts of Ireland by evil
disposed persons to obtain possession
of arms, ammunition and other stores.
1t was therefore considered advisable
that Gen. Paget should "at once take
special precautions" The letter also
mentioned that stores in the south of
Ireland should be specially looked
after.
, At this same time Gen. Paget was
told by the war office that in the case
of officers whose homes We're in Ulster
he might give them the opportunity OF
taking leave or of transferring to
manently injured in their family and
social affairs by the possible active
service in Ulster
This message Gen. Paget says he
gave to the general officers. Several
of them misunderstood him. and con-
ceived the Idea that all officers were
to be given the option of serving in
Ulster or subjecting themselves to dis
missal. The word was taken thus to
the line officers An overwhelming

he was not sending the troops north

March 10 the cabinet considered the
question of removing the stores from
Ulster but finally decided to order the

tested in his own name and that of
nearly 100 other officers against be-
ing ordered to initiate" action in
Ulster. The war office. after a cabinet
meeting. wrote him that no orders
would be given the soldiers except
when necessary to protect stores.
After the cabinet adjourned. Col

, After returning from the king, and
without consulting any member of the

they would not be asked to serve in
Ulster against their desires. This in
depreciation was never for a moment
admitted by the war office.
Next morning the unionists were in
great glee Their newspapers an
nounced, The army has killed home
rule"
Unionist glee was measured only by
liberal and labor and nationalist anger.
The rank and file of the government
party leaped to the conclusion that the
| cabinet had surrendered the power to
| control the army to cabal of army
! officers and the king.
| 1t was not believed that the cabinet

labor man, made speech. in which

with politics. and he was cheered for
! half an hour. The king rushed back
to London from country visit and i'm

on duty, but there was no disorder.
President E. NJ. Herr of the electric

Sir Edward Carson, the leader and

The unionists say that the cabinet
thereupon forthwith decided to crush
Ulster. The facts adduced in the long
debate show that March II Mr.. Lloyd

guests included Mr.. Redmond. Mr.. Dill

The plot was that soldiers should be
sent into Ulster on the pretense OF
guarding stores. that battleships should
be sent to command the ports. that
riot should be provoked by the
troops, and that the Ulster volunteers
should be massacred before they had
an opportunity to defend themselves
This plot was all the more heinous

Ulster people into a false state of Sc

to correct this year as nearly as pos

While some good has Seen accom-
