The young man who told the story

on the journey with the assurance
that they were on their way home

where their troubles would either
cease or greatly diminish.

US were Seasick. 1t was awfully tough
on the cripples. They rolled in their

is not an organized means for their
care established on each ship.

on the transports are just able to

HALDANE VISIT ST|RS
: RUMORS IN IRELAND
One Report Is That He Hopes to
Make Arrangements With
fractional Leaders.
BY WILLIAM Fl. BRAYDEN.

-
DUBLIN. Ireland. January 30
Irish nationalist papers of different
views are engaged in rival specula,-
tons as to the purport of Viscount
Haldane's visit to Dublin. He came
as the guest of Field Marshal
French at the vice regal lodge, but
certainly as no ordinary visitor The
STnn Feiners suggest that he is negoti-
ating with the guides of the old ma
tional party. These retort that Hal
dane came especially to see the Sim
Feiners, and that an attempt was
made to see how far that uncom-
promising party was open TO ar
rangements
The fact is certain that vfscount
Haldane had talks with men of all
shades of opinion, and it appears that
he has come merely to tap all sources
of information. The suggestion made
that he has special mission from
Premier Lloyd George is not credited.
but everybody believes that such in
formation as Haldane is able TO col
1ect will be at the disposal of the
cabinet
