Home RULE PACT
IS REPORTED NEAR
King Expected to Throw
Influence Toward AMIGA
bic Settlement.

London. July i8.-King George, who
has been making great efforts 20 bring
about settlement of the Irish licme
Rule crisis, decided to-day to postpone
his proposed visit TO the great British
feet no. lying at Spithead. His rea-
son Cor this step was that he might be
on hand IN London to receive early re-
ports of developments in the confer
cnces going on between the Yarlous
party leaders. II is understood that
when the opportune moment arrives his
majesty will throw his great influence
toward :he side looking for an smicable
settlement.
The belief prevails generally that
such a settlement is not far of, and
The Liverpool POST" one OF the best

ment side, goes so FAR as TO say:
"Ther, is really an arranged settle
ment Of the Irish question. Details
have yet to be adjusted, but the broad
facts can be regarded as Fixed
Other authorities do not 80 so far
but satisfy themselves with the state
ment there is near approach to
settlement"
The government is believed 20 nave

agree to abandon their demand for a
"clcan cut" Of the province of Ulster
out Of the operations OF the Irish Home
Rule bill. to arrange that the whole OF
Ulster. with the exception OF the Coun-
IL OF Tyrone. which has great Cath
Ollie majority. should vote as 4 single
entity on the question of exclusion
from the Home Rule government. The
Unonisti demand that Tyrone shall be
included in this arrangement, and this
has been the cause of the deadlock.
Premier Asquth and Augustine Bir-
rell. Secretary Of State for ireland,
who are carrying on the negotiations
on behalf Of the Cabinet, have re-
NAMED IN town for the week end. The
Premier to-dst had another audience

London, July l1.-Great emphasis is
being placed by Sir Ernest Shackleton
on the food supply Of his Antarctic ex-
pedition. in which the sledgng distance
to be covered will be roughly about
1900 miles. The first part will be over
unknown ground. which is that to be
traversed from the Weddell Sea to the
pole. Colonel Beveridge. of the Royal
Army Medical Corps, friend of Sir
Ernest, has been working out tables on
which food supplies for the sledgng
part of the journey are based.
The sledging rations, calculated to
last twenty men for 100 days, total
1853 pounds. The rations are being
packed in oblong boxes of so pounds
each, oblong in shape because easier
thus to handle. Everything in the nat
ure of meat is in skins, which come
in useful for feeding the dogs, or, a.
Sir Ernest puts it: "If necessary, We
shall eat the skins ourselves
The rations are to SO out IN re
frigerator, and will remain in refrig-
Grafton until they arrive at the first
destination in the land of the Southern
Cross. As set forth in the table Of
rations just published BY the explorer,
the following foodstuffs are included:
Unhulled Scotch oatmeal. fine
ground. 500 pounds; lard, 1000; sugar
ground, $50; sugar lloaf), 300; beef
powder 375; glidine, l25; Antarctic
biscuits, SIS: trumilk, 500; nut food,
$50; lime juice made into lozenges or
capsules), IS; cerebos salt, Is; meat
extract, in bounce cubes, So; tea, 81
Glidine is vegetable proteid, while
trumilk. so the explorer asserts. Las
this advantage over ordinary dried
milk, that it has not been subjected
TO a heat so great that the vitamines
are thereby destroyed. Tea is to be
the only stimulent of the expedition.
In this connection Sir Ernest has this
TO say:
1--WE shall have a small quantity Of
brandy with us, but only for medicinal
use in emergency. 1t often happels
that in uplifting the arms 10 fix the
tent for sleep the blood rushes :ron
the hands and the fingers become III
simultaneously frostbitten. A man Is
then quite hors de combat, but a drop
of brandy will help to give a fillip 70
the blood in the affected parts. In
the ordinary way we shall abstain
from alcohol until. | hope, we mag
have the pleasure of drinking tie
health of the King and OF good fellows
we'll met once more at the successful
conclusion of our long march"
Sir Ernest, however, makes it plan
that where a man has tooth extract
ed he may expect "wee drap," for
such suspicious occasions are always
considered incomplete without it.
One of the unique features will be
the addition to the food supplies Of
soil and seeds. for il is hoped to grow
small quantity Of oats. barley, mus
tard. cress and peas. As the green
shoots come up they will be cut OF
and made into sandwiches. 1t is
hoped to take quite number of these
sandwiches or the l,S00-mile tramp,
and they are to be looked on as luXu-
ries.
