Opposes Debate on Revolt.
In replying to the request from Sir
Henry Dalziel. Liberal Member for
Kirkcaldy Burghs, that the House OF
Commons sit on Monday, TO discuss
the Dublin outbreak, Premier Asquith
snid that debate on the question could
only be mischievous.
"Our Allies already have been made
aware by Sir Edward Carson and Mr.
Redmond" the Premier added, that
the movement is sectional only, and has
no sympathy from the representatives
Of the Irish leaders"
Mr.. Asuuith said that for obvious rea-
sons he did not like 20 name the other
places to which the trouble had spread,
but there had been in the West and
South, but particularly in the west,

Carson Anxious for News.
Sir Edward Carson urged that many
persons were anxious regarding the
fate Of relatives IN Dublin and could
get virtually no news from Ireland.
Mr.. Asquith said that he sympathized
with the anxiety felt by persons having
relatives in Ireland. but added that the
difficulties of communication were d.
minishing. He gathered that communi-
cation would be restored to-day or to-
morrow, subject. Of course, to military
necessity. There would be no censor

He thought that when the govern

fRy Cah,e 70 The tribune

London, April 27.-Unrufiied in his
vanity. Sir Roger Easement is confined
tonight in a strong jail under heavy
guard near London. He is a victim o,
keen disappointment. but his soaring
conceit keeps up his spirits. Although
the police have kept from him all news
of the rebellion, his self-importsnce
leads him to believe that any revolt
would fail without his leadership.
Easement still clings to the idea
and papers found by the authorities
to-day support his belief-that great
rising would have followed his arrival;
that Ireland in rebellion would have
found at once powerful organized
support in both America and Germany
His vanity tells him that but for an
unkind stroke of fate he would have
freed Ireland.

a country road winds down to meet

Their arrival was not unexpected
A half mile from shore, hidden By
bushes from the road, but having

of the Irish Volunteers waited with

taken up this position in the darkness
of the preceding night. They we're

when the conspirators landed they

force had appeared and seized the

ashore to find himself in the grin OF

This encounter came as rude snoch
