ARMED REBELLION
IN IRELAND FEARED
MILITANT SIM FEINERS CON.
STANTLY GROWING BOI.DER,
AND BRITAIN UNEASY.

London, Oct 25.-The seriousness Of
the situation in Ireland is insisted upon
by a correspondent of the Daily Mail
who has been following the Sim F'ein
doings for several weeks. He says the
whole of west Ireland is on the verge
OF an armed rebellion, and continues:
The young priests in Prof. de Vale.
ra's train have awakened TO the danger
of the spark they helped to kindle and
now are trying to quench 1t, but fear
il has gone too far. The militant Sim
Feiners are at the top of their stride.
They have been allowed to carry the
program to a pitch which il seems al
most hopeless to break by pacific means.
The Sim Feiners are sublimely con-
fident and the way that Tuesdays de-
bate in parliament shows plainly the
government is afraid of them"
The correspondent adds that there is
a ray of hope in that the Sim Fein
congress, which opens in Dublin today,
is checking the militant section.
CONSUMPTION Is Hated.
There is not the slightest doubt" he
continues, that the rock around which
the troubled waters are now swirling is
the question of consCription. II it were
announced definitely by the government
that no endeavor would be made to
force conscription on Ireland before an
other general election it is possible that
large numbers of Sim Feiners would
refrain from fomenting trouble"
The police are arresting several local
leaders in Cork and Limerick. but the

the authorities dare not arrest Prof. de
Valera or Countess Markievicz
Fear Irrepressibie Conflict.
Editorially the Daily Mail emphasizes
the extreme gravity of the Irish situa-
ton as revealed in Tuesdays debate in
the house of commons. II infers that
the point Of irrepressble conflict is
being approached" and does not believe
the Sim Feineis viii pay much atten-
tion to the warning of Premier Lloyd
George The newspaper believes the
warning may have to be enforced. un-
less at this late hour some scheme can
be devised to make Irishmen themselves
responsible for the preservation OF law
and order. The Daily Mail suggests the
following:
That the convention be invited TO
take upon itself the responsibility for
nominating small body of Irishmen
to carry on the government in Ireland
until the convention has either reached
an agreement or adjourned Indefinitely.
The great need of the moment is to
get the management of Irish affairs
into Irish hands. Us whatever IS done
by English authority is sure to be mis-.
understood and resented

sian prisoners there. The food was not
good, he said and "A number of deaths
