LLOYD GEORGE DEFENDS
HOME RULE MEASUK-
British Premier Likens ireland to the
South in 1861-Passed on Sec
ond Reading.

London, April 1.-The house Of COM
mons passed the second reading OF
the Irish home rule bill. The vote
was 348 to "a.
Replying to arguments against the
bill, Premier Lloyd George declared
the government has every reason to
be satisfied with the course of the
debate, as it demonstrated that the
governments plan was the only one
that held the field.
The difficulty of the problem, said
the premier, was that no proposals
which would be acceptable to any
party in this country would be &C.
copied by any party in Ireland. If
the people of Ireland were asked what
plan they would accept. declared
Lloyd George, they would say by an
emphatic majority: eve want indie
pendence and an Irish republic"
The premier insisted there was no
use of talking about self-determina-
ton, since those who supported it
must go to the full length of granting
an Irish republic.
"Self-determination," continued the
premier, "does not mean that every
part of the country, which has been
acting together for 100 years, should
have the right to say: we mean to set
up separate republic There must
be limit to the application Of any
principle; otherwise it might be car
ried to every locality in every coun-
try throughout the world"
Mr.. Lloyd George said he wanted to
say to "our American friends that
Eamonn De Valera was putting for
ward the same claim in exactly the
same language as Jefferson Davis,
and that some of the men who voted
for the Irish self-determination mo-
ton in the senate the other day had
ancestors who fought to death against
ccnceding to the southern states of
America the very demand they are
now supporting for Ireland.

CHICAGO STRIKERS DEFY
THE UNITED STATES
Hundreds of Rae Men at Meeting
Shout That They Are Bigger Than
the Government.

Chicago, April 9.-While reports
piled into Chicago with details of the
spread of the switchmen's strike,
which originated here, a meeting sup
posedly of loyal union switchmen was
taken over by radicals, who at one
time chorused their belief that they
were stronger than the United
States"
The conservative railroad unions
were being deserted by their erst-
while membership. And the newly
formed unions the Yard
mems association and the United En-
ginemen's association - have come
forth with platforms calculated to de-
stroy the labor organizations which
have contracted with the railroads.
A study of news dispatches makes
possible a background for a picture
of general conditions, striking de-
tails of which were painted at the
meeting.
Samuel e. Heberling, international
president of the Switchmen's Union Of
North America, who came to Chicago
to make a desperate effort to curb
the disintegration of his union and
the outlaw strike, with loyal union
associates, called meeting of the
union members. This meeting sup
posedly was protected against pack
ing" by radicals.
But when w. J. frost arose to open
the session he was hooted from the
platform. He is conservative and,
like other officials of the old union,
is opposed to the strike.
Mr.. Heberling talked for time, in
terrupted by jeers and Kisses.
"This strike is Illegal" the interna-
tfOnal president said. "You men can't
get away with it. Do you think you're
bigger than the United States?"
At least 500 voices screamed the
unexpected answer, "Yes!"
And then, before body Of news
paper men openly admitting their
identity, and with a score of secret
service men and police detectives in
the audience, E. c.. Estey, leader Of
the Yardmen's association, mounted
the platform, took control of the
meeting away from Messrs. Heber-
ling and frost, and shouted to loud
approval the radical methods that
must be taken to win the "strike"
