A DELIBERATE FALSEHooD.
Sec. Tumulty Makes Denial of Report
About President and the Irish Question.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Secrctary
Tumulty issued a statement at the White
House today denying formally on behalf
of President Wilson that the President
told members of the congressional foreign
affairs committee "Wednesday night that
the Irish question was matter between
ireland and England and that it would
have NO weight in the peace conference
at present.
A statement to this effect made by at
least one of the committeeman after the
White House conference was character.
ized as 4 deliberate falsehood' Mr.. TIL
multy refused to discuss what the Prcsi-
dent did say about the Irish question.
Several members of the committee said
after the conference said that President
Wilson, when pressed about the Irish
question, had made statement to the
same general effect as the one now de
MED.
The subject came up on the floor of the
senate today. Senator Hitchcock, in at
tacking a report of the conference pub
lished by the New York Sun, said the
President was questioned about Ireland
but that the question was not serious
one and was not answered.
Senator Williams of Mississippi inter
rupted, however, saying the President hat
said the league of nations had nothing t,
do with the Irish or immigration ques
ton.
