 The debate was brought about by a mo- tion for adjournment by John Redmond, nationalist leader, after an announcement by the premier that the government had no intention of introducing any home rule for Ireland bill with regard to which there was no substantial agreement among all parties. MT. Redmond wanted Just before the motion was voted down, MT. Asquith directly addressed the na- tionalists, denying that any partiality had been shown to either side during the ne gotiations. MT.

 growing feeling of unrest in Ireland and the deplorable effect on the Irish situa- tion, which may result from the govern ment not proposing to carry out in en- tirety the terms offered by it for a set clement of the Irish difficulty as ac- cepted by the Irish parties
 Mr. Redmond said the agreement was for the provisional settlement of the question until the war was over, or un- til a final and permanent settlement was arrived at within limited time after the war.
 Having attained the consent of our supporters to this agreement" said Mr. Redmond. T was faced on my return to London by an entirely new proposal from the Marquis of Lansdowne, which came as a bolt from the blue. Lord Lansdowne declared the bill to be introduced would contain certain structural alterations of the act of 1914, which would be permanent and enduring and immediately protested.
 Saturday, last, MT. Lloyd-George and the home secretary informed me, the cabinet had decided to insert in the Ebill two provisions, one for the pernia- nent exclusion of the Ulster counties, and another cutting out of the bill the agreement for the retention of Irish mem- bers at Westminster during the transit tory period.

CONSCIENCE FUND" OF TREASURY GROWS
 TO HALF MILLION
Contributions for Past Year Are Much Larger Than Ever Before-One
 Man Sent $30,000

Washington, July 24-Contributions to the treasurys conscience fund.- for the fiscal year ending June 3o amounted tc $54923 15, making total of 49S.7s3.54 re- turned by persons whose consciences were uneasy over frauds against the govern ment.
 Figures compiled at the Urea sury de- partment today show the returns were much larger during the past year thar ever before, chiefly because of two un. usual contributions one for sao,ooo and one for s10000.
 It was in 1911 when the first s5 came with letter saying that the writer hat taken that amount from the government The money was turned into the treasury and although there actually never has been a separate conscience fund. rec ords of all such contributions have beer kept. It is an unwritten law of the de partment that no effort shall be made tc learn the identity of conscience stricken contributors and wherever the writer has confessed to theft from the government the money has been accepted and no eff. fort made to prosecute From 1911 until lsg1 there were no receipts. Since then except for 1S4S not a single year has passed without amounts, large or small coming in.

 FOR EARLY REPLY
 ID U. s. MAIL NOTE
Great Britain and France Are to Be Impressed With Importance of Sending
 Answer Quickly

Washington, July 24-Instructions to impress upon the British and French gov ernments that the United States desires an early and complete reply to it's last note regarding interference with neutral mails was cabled by the state department today to Ambassador Page at London and Ambassador Sharp at Paris. The step was taken after President Wilson and other officials had studied the British memorandum dealing with specific com- plaints and deferring reply to the Amer ican contentious regarding the principles involved.
 The official text of the memorandum, made public by the state department. re- veals that Great Britain feelc obliged to disclaim responsibility" for the specific occurrences complained of in the Amer ican note until there has been 'pppor- tunity of investigation in detail"
 Outlines of the memorandum cabled from London in last nights press dis patches conform closely to the official text.
 In replying to the complaint regarding mail removed from the steamship Medan, some. of which later was lost on the Meoklenburg, the memorandum says the facts set forth by the United States "are correct except that it is not made clear, though it is the fact. that the neutral mail bags removed from the Medan were all sent on ana that 1S2 bags lost in the Mecklenburg were without excep- ton for enemy destination"

BLUE SMOKE FROM SUBMARINE SHOWS
 DASH COMING SOON
Every Indication Is That Departure of Deutschland Will Not Be Long
 Delayed-Papers Not Issued

Baltimore, July 24.--A communion service was held tonight aboard rhe interned North German Lloyd steamer Neckar, lying alongside the submarine Deutschland, for the captain and crew of the submarine. Rev. Otto Apits, German immigrant missionary, con- ducted the service. In his prayer he asked that the vessel and her crew may have n safe voyage home.
 The service was followed by bnn- auet. The Neckar was brilliantly lighted.
 It was learned that the Deutschland was partly submerged at her slip at o'So this evening. The water is not deep enough for full submergence. Baltimore, July 24-A series of events today at the pier where the Ger man merchant submarine Deutschland is berthed indicated that her departure would not be long delayed. The most significant of these were the filling of her water tanks and the slowing below her deck of the crews bedding, which had been removed from the informed
 
 North German Lloyd steamer Neckar nearby Since their arrival two weeks ago the Deutschland's crew have been sleeping aboard the Neckar shortly after the water tanks had been filled heavy blue smoke was noticed coming from behind the barges that screened the Deutschland from view and direct at her stern. The wind blowing from the direction of the submarine carried the odor of fuel oil and it was evident the vessels engines were being tested.
 These activities were preceded by the sealing of the wireless apparatus by a government radio inspector. This was in accordance with a federal law call ing for such action at the expiration of two weeks.
 No application for clearance papers had been made up to the close of busi- ness al the custom house today, it was announced. Arrangements may be made however, for this to be done out of hours.

that the expenditure had reached e6.ooo, 600 daily, Premier Asquith made the same statement as did the chancellor in regard to the purchase of American se- curities which he said was not true expenditure, but merely transfer of as- sets from England to America After expending E559,0OO 900 between April l and July P, continued the premier, there was a balance of &4,0o0,000 which was suf- ficient to carry on the services to the end of July instead of the first week in August as he had estimated. The daily average of expenditure had risen from to June 30 to e5,050,00o during the period frem June q to July P, or an average over the two periods of G4, $50 GOO.
 The principal cause of the increa SC were the army and navy munitions. The first period the average irrecoverable expendi- ture was GS,ooO,0o0 being exclusive of sup plies to the allies During the second period it was G3, GOO, 900. From both these figures should be deducted the average peace expenditure of e220, 0,Oo0,0 0o0 The naval expenditure, added the premier, pro- expected to increase in the near future. Army expenditures, he said, reached the high water mark exclusive of munitions, last November, and from January to June remained fairly constant at figure rather less than that of last November.

 The July total, continued the premier, probably would be higher than that of November and it was expected apart from any change in policy that the present level would be maintained for the near
