Washington. April 29.-Henry Ford
may run for president on third
party ticket, according to the best in
formation in Washington.
The peace and anti-preparedness
cooperative movement will give the
old parties a chance and If both or
them adopt mlitaristic platforms and
nominate candidates to fit then the
new party may be called into being in
n national convention approxima ting
the bull moose gathering in Chicago
in 1912.
That Ford is the first choice OF the
peace party advocates is apparent
here. His run in two presidential pri-
maries has much to do with this. But
he has other elements of strength.
One of these is his prominence In the
peace movement. But by far the
most powerful is his standing with
American labor
The third party idea still dwells in
the background. but it is not safe to
place a big discount on the argument
that can be brought In support OF
such a movement. The politicians
here do not discount it. The comfort
they can extract from the situation
which they know may develop is that
probably the third party would cut
into one Of the old parties as deeply
as into the other,
One of the most potent factors 10
he used by the peace party, IL 1t shali
have come into being, Is that its
members are not opposed to all forms
of preparedness. They do not object
to a measure of preparedness for de-
fense. They do not concede the ne
cessity for it. but they will go along In
spending money for defense. That rs.
they would spend some money for
coast defenses and for submarines OF
limited sailing radius, but are totally
opposed to a big battleship program.
Mr.. Bryan has said he will be III
the democratic national convention.
Defeated for delegate from his own
state, this can mean only that he ex-
poets to sit as the proxy Of some ueie-
gate from another state. II is nor
doubted here that Bryan will go to
st. Louis TO fight for a peace plat
form
In the republican national conven-
ton, the supporters of the peace ana
anti-preparedness movement also VIII
have some fighters These, like Mr.
Bryan az ST Louis, will carry the
fight TO the convention floor.
Republicans See Gains.
When the returns from the primary
elections in Massachusetts,. Ohio and
New Jersey are studied the following
facts stand out:
Republican voters are flocking tol
the regulars and deserting the pro-
pressives.
They show preference for unin-
strueted aud unpiedged delegations

Baron Wimborne, lord lieutenant of

Press at the vice regal lodge today the
assurance that the seditious move

course of few days.
The viceroy was full of praise for
loyalty displayed by the great major

the damage done by the rebels as

Baron Wimborne, when requested

claimed an Irish republic last Mon
day afternoon. said.
Castle Never In Danger.
THE outbreak began Monday morn
ing about 1870 O'Clock. About that
time information was received that
Dublin castle had been attacked. ST.
Stephens green occupied, and the
postoffice seized by the rebels. Tele-
phonic communication with the Cur
ragh camp was Immediately obtained
by the authorities and the reserve
troops were brought to Dublin that
night and the following morning.
Meanwhile the situation at the cas-
tie, which never had been occupied
by the rebels, was strengthened. The
only casualty there was was the shoot
ing of policeman at the gate, 4
very few hours after the outbreak
large forces had been assembled at
the castle which. however, never was
In real danger.
The rebels had cut telegraphic
communications with the country dis
tricts and with England. but had not
succeeded in discovering a telephone
wire which connected the Curragh
camp with headquarters This was
one OF their great mistakes. They

when asked concerning the origin
and connection Of the rebel move
ment with the Germans. the viceroy
said there was an absolute certainty
'nat the rebellion was timed to take
place with the knowledge of Germany
and was intended TO bring about the
withdrawal Of troops from England to
Ireland.
