Redmond Criticizes Asquith's Proposition as Pure Union ist Plan, Obnoxious to Ireland
WITHDRAWS HIS
 SUPPORT TO PLAN
Asquit Sidesteps Advisory Council in Evasive Speech and Favors Iron Hand in Ireland
(By Review Leased Wire.)

 LONDON. July 31.-The debate
 in the House of Commons today
 on John Dillon's motion urging
 the government to disclose it's
 plan for the government of Ire
 land during the war, seems to Ehave left the prospect of an ami Ncable settlement of the Irish prob
 lem as distant as before.
 Premier Asquith made a concilia- tory speech. but he had little to an- npunee 5tending to appease national ist susceptibility for, although he eX- pressed thesconviction that a perma- nent setTleiiient would be reached sooner than many persons imagined, John Redmond, the nationalist leader, made it cleaESthat his party was dis satisfied. and would henceforth con sider Stseffs aljsolved from association With the dpaiition government and free to crfticise and oppose it inde- pendently in any circumstances. < Old Caste Government / 2 The main. ground for his objections to the geyefpment's plan for interim government was that it would 'be in the hands of the new secretary for Ireland Henry Ward Duke and the at terney generalsssSsf FredefsS k EsSmith both unionists;; tilat in fact it was a revival of Castle Government
 MT Redmond, in the course of his speech made much of the agreement between Sir Edward Carson and him. self He said he did not think it was worth Sir Edward Carson's while to seek to vary the terms of the agree ment MT. Redmond added that the position of the nationalist party was that in the midst of the great war, it was impossible seriously to consider a permanent settlement of these ques- tions. They had agreed to every word of the written contract, which was ac- cepted by their followers as a temper ary measure.
 Unionist Plan
 He had objected to the formation of a coalition government at first, but what they now were getting was a pure unionist government in Ireland. He did not care how able or broad minded such a government might be, he objected to it altogether. It would cause the most profound dissatisfac- tion in Ireland and instead of allaying the present unrest. would tend in the opposite direction.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Mocted questions about the status of state troops called into the federal service for the Mexican emergency are de dided in an eXhautive opinion given Secretary Baker by Brigadier General CroWder, Judge Advocate of the Army. General Crowder holds that the state soldiers are not subject to duty out side of the United States unless ard until they are formally drafted by order of the President; that respective state governors, and that they arc entitled to the same pensions ana provisions as the regulars. In the meantime, he says, the status of tn . state troops "is that of militia calle! into the service of the United State for one of the purposes specified in the constitution that is to protect the United States from invasion"
 There are three classes of troop 3 now in federal service, according t. the opinion. They are first, the 'or- ganized militia" of Texas, Arizona and New Mexico, summoned by the President in his first call for state troops under the Dick law of 1903; second the national guard auromatica,- ly placed in federal service and the new national defense act, the Hay Chamberlain bill; and third. the regular troops. The militia which have not qualified under the new law have status identical with those Of Texas, Arizona and New Mexico.

He repeated that the very high est interests of Ireland consisted in that country doing her duty, and she was doing it now
 Asquith Evasive
 The leading feature of Premier As quiths speech was the announcement of the new secretary for Ireland. his sidetracking of the so-called Plunkett scheme for an advisory council, which had been strongly supported outside of the House, but which the Premier declared was impracticable, and the announcement that there would he no reduction of the military forces in Ireland. He also suggested that all members of the cabinet were in practical agreement with Lord This was further con firmed by Andrew Bonar Law. secre- tary for the colonies, who admitted that Lord Lansdowne and himself had arrived at the same point by different paths

 The report says day coaches were used only in cases where owing to the urgency of the situation and the large number of troops being moved at one time it was not practical to delay.
 Regarding rations, the secretary re ports that where cooking equipment was not placed in trains. the men were furnished with money to buy hot coffee, the same as troops of the regu- lar army allowed under similar condi tions.
 There was no reason for troops seeking food of citizens enroute." he said. 'It is not possible, unless ra- tions have been thrown away, that troops which have been reported short of rations, could have been short Every precaution was taken to see that they started with an ample sup ply. These troops are largely recruits untrained and undisciplined."
 Acting Quartermaster General Sharpe reported that to have moved all the troops in Pullman or tourist cars would have required 5000 cars. The Pullman Company made availa- ble for the troops 50 percent of all tourist cars it owns.
 Representative Slayden, who, all through the Mexican troubles, has been one of the administrations crit ics for not using the guard on the bor der. spoke in the House today in com mendation of the conditions of the guardsmen.

here President Wilson said:
There is a considerable body of
men in this country who are trying
to instill the very sort OF excitement in

duced the price Of powder from 53
cents to 3G cents.

INTO Td0uS OF In6 bTitl6ns
Washington, Feb. 3.-State depart
ment officials indicated that if the
British South African liner Appam,
anchored in Hampton Roads, finally is
held to be a prize the Prussian-Amer-
lean treaty of 1925 is more likely to
govern the case than is The Hague
convention. This would mean the Ap-
pam would be turned over to German
captors and in that case some Ger
man officials expressed the view the
prize crew, rather than let it fall back
into the hands of the British as would
seem inevitable if it left port, might
take the ship to the three-mile limit
and sink it.
If it is held TO have become a Ger
man fleet auxiliary it will have the
choice of leaving port after a certain
time for supplies or repairs, or intern
ing for the war
Sir Cicil Spring Rice. the British
ambassador, formally asked Secretary
Lansing for the release of the Appam
and return to the British owners un-
der article Il of The Hague conven-
ton, which, the British authorities
say, has superseded the Prussian-
American treaty.
Rear Admiral Beatty, commanding
the Norfolk navy yard, has reported
that Lieutenant Berg commander of
the German prize crew, asserts the
ship is a prize of war. The German
embassy has not determined its
course
The neutrality board, an official ad-
visory body composed of James Brown
Scott, former solicitor of the state
department. and Captains Knapp and
| Oliver of the navy, considered the
Appam case. Any conclusions it
reaches are not binding on the state
department, but are accepted as hay-
| ing weight.
