borne and the guilt OF the murder Of
the priests, contiScation of property
dcsecration of churches, violations of
sisters. use OF affairs for unspcakable

LONDON. October 17.-Reynolds's

1T is almost impossible TO imagine
that the next week or so will pass

Edward Carson, the Attorney General
has rendered his resignation because
he holds very strong views on the vital
points OF concentration and conduct
OF the war without compulsory SER
Vice. and has intimated that unless the
cabinet takes his view he can no
longer attend councils.
There is every reason to believe
that the Cabinet Will adopt Sir Ed

probably will be withdrawn. If this
Is the case. at least one and probably
more designations may be expected"
