ENGLAND'S STATUS
 COMIC AND TRAGIC
CABINETS AGREEMENT WITH ARMY IN IRELAND HAS BE-
 COME RIDICULOUS.
Col. seely, War Official, Who Gave the Written Agreement, Acknowledges His Mistake.

London, March 25.-The govern ment today published it's promised statement of it's dealings with the revolting officers of the Third cavalry brigade and the house of commons held another heated and disorderly session. Between the documents pre- sented and the various statements drawn from the cabinet ministers vital facts of the affair were made clear. They reveal comedy or trag- edy of errors perpetrated by Col. Seely. secretary of state for war, and Sir Arthur Paget, commanding the troops in Ireland.
 Col. Seely took all the blame on himself He frankly declared he had made a great mistake. His written assurance to Gen Hubert Cough that the government must retain it's right to use all the forces of the crown in Ireland or elsewhere to maintain or der and support the civil powers in the ordinary execution of their duty, but has no intention whatever of talk ing advantage of this right to crush political opposition to the policy or the principles of the homer ule bill" |" was given without the knowledge of the cabinet and contrary to it's policy
 The war secretary tendared his res ignation to Mir. Asquith, but the pre- mier refused to accept it. The gov ernment has withdrawn Col. Seely's guarantees. according to a statement Inv Viseount Morley in the house of lords and Sir Edward Grey told the house of commons that the govern' ment's decision would be made known to Gen Cough tomorrow.
 Thus the situation with respect to Gen. Cough and his go comrades who sent in their papers is still in state l of suspensitn.

CONVICT GOODS
 BILL IS PASSED
HOUSE ADOPTS BILL PROHIBIT ING IMPORTATION OF CON-
 vicT MADE GOODS.
Measure Will Prevent This Class of American Market.

Washington, March 25.-After { partisan contest, the house today pass
 ed bill to bar foreign convict made or pauper made goods from competi | tion with the products of American free labor, The measure which now goes to the senate follows bill re gently passed by the house forbiddine the shipment of convict made goods in interstate commerce into states which prohibit the sale of such prod ucts in the open market.
 The importation of foreign convict made goods has been prohibited gen. erally under the tariff laws since 1890, but owing to the peculiar construction of the law it has been difficult to en- force and labor representative in con- gress declare it has been freely yio- lated
 Under the measure passed today all shipments of goods proven 10 be convict or pauper made could be con fiscated by the treasury department through court proceedings similar to libel prosecutions under the admiralty laws. In addition the bill provides that any "consignor, seller, owner, shipper, importer, consignee, agent or other person or persons" who know ingly and frauduleatly" introduces or seeks to introduce the prohibited ar ticles into the commerce of the Unit ed States upon conviction shall be fined for each offense a sum not ex- ceeding $5,000, or be imprisoned for not exceeding two years.
 Defining goods against which the ban is placed, the bill prohibits "any goods on which ali or any part Of which has beet employed in any manner the labor of eonvicts or of prisoners con fined in any jail, penal institution. workhouse, or other place of restraint, detention of occupation permitted, es- tablished and set aside to be util- ized by or for criminals or detained persons in any foreign country and whether the same be the product of lhe neiuj lhS pudliy UT nohuiaNN"ii III z establishment, any part of which or the material entering which have been produced, treated, manipulated or manufactured at any state, in whole or in part, by convict, pauper or pris-
 on labor or by detained persons in a | foreign country"
 The bill declares that the term
 "pauper" shall be limited to those persons who are held or confined in eleemosynary institutions at the pub 1 lie expense. in whole or in part

torpedo flotilla to Irish waters, but explained that when the military ar engagements had been carried out he countermanded the order by wireless, an explanation which the unionists received with jeers.
 The blunder made by Gen Paget appears to have been in giving a practical ultimatum to officers of the cavalry brigade to say whether they would take active service in Ulster or accept dismissal.
 Sir Edward Grey spoke eve. more strongly. He said:
 "The government is prepared to use force to whatever extent is required to make the will of the country pre- vail. That is a contingency which cannot arise for long time and we will labor to avoid it."
 Much of the debate in the house of commons tonight consisted of fiery denunciatiols of the military aristoc- racy.
 Government members were placated by today's revelations, but there re. mains among radical and laborite a strong and outspoken dissatisfaction with the whole affair. Many think the matter would have been allowed to rest except for the almost unani- nous attacks by the liberal press and bOastings of the conservative press over what they speak of as Gen. Coughs victory.
 All talk of a compromise on the home rule bill for the time is sus- pended. Conservatives hold that re- cent events have shown that no conn., promise is possible except on the un- conditional exclusion of Ulster The liberals say that would not be com. promise, but surrender.
 Col Seely's transfer to another cabinet post is predicted and the an nouncement and acceptance of the resignations of Gen. Paget and Gen. Cough would be no surprise.
 J. Austen Chamberlain complained that the government had revealed Paget. If, as has been stated the government merely intended the move nothing concerning the instructions given by the army council to Gen. ment of troops to protect the stores, it never would have told Gen. Paget to excuse from service the officers domieiled in Ulster. It was incon- ceivable, he said, that when the pre-. mier gave his statement to the press Sunday he knew that Mir. Churchill had ordered a battle squadron to Lamlash.
 The honor of the prime minister is at stake in this matter" he said, "and | 1t is the first lord of the admiralty who has put it at stake" MT. Chamberlain declared it was known that the two paragraphs fol which the secretary of war assumed sole responsibility were prepared by him in consultation with Viscount Morley, who was present Throughout the proceedings in which the cabinet participated
 Lord Morley would not have assent ed to their inclusion, he contended unless the paragraphs were fair in depreciation of what the cabinet hat decided on and the premier would not accept Col. Seely's resignation be cause he only had done what the cab met members themselves had assent ed to.
 Mir Churchill, rising. said:
 Lord Morley had 10 direct con nection with the paragraphs referred to- He merely happened to be witl Col. Seely in the cabinet room whel the dispatch came containing then were brought in. For that reasoi and because he is ehlvalrous. he as sumed responsibility for them. bu Col seely stlll accepts the sole an' fullest responsibility
