NEW YORK.

He asserted that his attorney was not properly conducting a detail of the Case.

General Townshend in Mesopotamia are likely to be the subjects of harsh criticism. General Townshend's sur render at Kut Fl I-Amara is the bit terest blow to British pride since the death of Gordon At Khartoum But the general absorption of Irish affairs has prevented the tragic episode from filling the public mind as it other wise would.
 A majority of the newspapers hold the government responsible for the Irish outbreak, while the opposition attributes to civilian mismanagement the disaster to the army at Kut-E Amara. Others contend that the ex- petition was justified by it's work in holding a large Turkish army around Bagdad during the winter, which oth- erwise might have participated in an attack on Egypt. They also consider the position of the Turks dangerous because of the possibility of their being caught between the Russians from the north and Persia and Lieut.. General George Gorringe's relieving force which is far from negligible factor
 In ordinary times, either Premier Asquith's withdrawal of the recruit ing bill last week in the face of a hostile house; Augustine Birrells management of Irish affairs, or the loss of General Townshends division probably would create an immediate crisis, possibly resulting in vote oi want of confidence in the govern ment. But the fact that the present cabinet includes the leaders of three parties and that no alternative whicf has been suggested commands any strong support will serve to keep tht government going Mir. Birrells res ! ignation, however, would cause nc
