Irish Situation Serious.

London, March 16.-The Post pub
fishes long article in regard to what
it characterizes the serious situation
in Ireland on account Of the activity of
the Sim Fein Society. 1t says:
From motives Of patriotism, English
newspapers hitherto have refrained
from commenting on the situation in
ireland, but it Is developing so rapidly
that silence is no longer possible.
Thru the south and west an or
ganized campaign against recruiting Is
being carried out without hindrance.
Lately several offenders have been in
dicted and tried, but all were acquitted.
These cases were heard by ordinary
juries. 1t is hoped future cases may go
before special juries or military trib-
unals. -"-

pointed to organize the st Patrick's

sonable for Belgium to invite Ger

Washington. March 16.-Emperor
Williams determination not to pro-
woke break with the United
States in the new submarine campaign
even tho 1t involves factional con-
test in the German reichstag having
already brought about the downfall Of
Grand Admiral Won Tirpitx himself. is
indicated In tndav'a Re-lin ss..sss..ch.ss.
The tone Of these dispatches from
the German capital. altho guarded, is
taken here to prove the supremacy Of
the emperor Chancellor Won Beth
mann Hollweg, Foreign Minister Won
Jasow and the army which has been
opposing the plan Of Admiral Won Tir-
pitz and the navy party to carry the
campaign to destruction OF all ships,
neutral or helligerent.
Ausury For Peaceful Solution.
The development is regarded as a
potent augury for a peaceful solution
Of the situation with Germany.
The passage Of -today's Berlin dis
patches by the censors Is rega -ded as
a desire Of the German foreign office
to prepare the American people for
such a contest in the re!chstag as was
recently seen in congress over the
armed ship question.
About fortnight ago a conference
was held in Berlin. presided over by
the emperor and attended by Chan
cellor Bethmann Won Hollweg Herr
vu, Jascw and Genera! Won Eaik-n-
hayn. chief of STAFF, and It is believed
that Admiral Won Tirpitz himself was
called in. The discussion turned on
submarine warfare generally and par
sicularly on the attitude Of the United
States government. t1
1T Is understood It was the emperor
who decided that every effort should
be made to retain the friendship OF the
United States. The proposed extension
Of submarine warfare to affect neutral
nations was rejected. Won Tirpitz's
retirement followed. EtFla ass, 5Ess- D.. .,
