The application for an Injunction
was made by George Koyaceyich. who
said that Professor Pupin and the
other officials OF the federation had no
legal right to call the convention, which
was to have begun yesterday. Pro-

DRAFT IS NEAR,
BRITISH BELIEVE
CONSUMPTION Expected as
Result of Rebellion and
Surrender at Kut.

London. Msy L The next few days
session Of Fsrhament, it is expected,
will be as interesting rs any since the
war began. The government must at
tempt to pass legislation for recruit
ing, which VIII probably take the form
Of compulsion for all, with an interval
for further voluntary enlistment.
The rebellion in Ireland and the i'm
POSSIBLE task imposed upon Major
General Townshend in Mesopotamia are
likely TO be the subjects of harsh
criticism. General Townshend's sur
render AZ Kut-el-Amara is the bitterest
blow TO British pride since the death
o. Gordon at Khsrtum. But the gen
cral Absorption in Irish affairs has pre-
vented the tragic episode from filing
the public mind as it otherwise would.
A majority OF the newspapers hold
the government responsible for the
Irish outbreak, while the Opposition
papers attribute to civilian mismanage-
ment the disaster TO the army at hut-
el-Amara
Others contend that the expedition
was justified b. its WORK in holding a
large Turkish army around Bagdad
during tho winter, which otherwise
might have participated in an attack
on Egypt.
In ordinary times either Premier
Asquith's withdrawal OF the recruit
ing bill last week in the face Of a hos
tile House, Augustine Birrell's man
agcmcnt Of Irish affairs or the loss Of
General Townshond's division would
probably create an immediate crisis,
possibly resulting in vote OF want
Of confidence IN the government.
But the fact that the present Cabi-
net includes the leaders or three
parties and that no alternative which
has been suggested commands any
strong support will serve 20 keep the
government going Mr.. Birrells resig-
nation, however, would cause no sur
prise.
