Government Loses
In Home Rule Vote
In House of Lords

LONDON. Dec. 1.-The government
suffered a defeat In the house of lords
tonight when an amendment TO the
Irish home rule bin submitted by Baron
Oranmore and Browne, providing for
the establishment of a senate for
southern Ireland was carried against
the government by a vote of 120 to 36.
1t was explained that the object OF the
amendment was to safeguard the mi
nority southern Unionists.
Lord Birkenhead, lord high chan
cellor for the government, opposed the
amendment on the ground that such a
senate must be preponderantly nomi-
native@and there was no hope Of fore
ing such a second chamber on south
ern Ireland. He emphasized the gov
ernments desire that the question OF
framing a senate should be left to the
central council. Lord Shandon moved
an amendment providing for joint
session of the southern and northern
senates as a substitute for the Irish
council. Lord Birkenhead thought il
preferable to discuss the subject at q
later stage. Earl Middleton urged that
nothing was more liable to lead to some
settlement than Lord Shandon's pro-
posal. This amendment was adopted
As to 81.
/ In a later discussion. Lord Birken-
head, referring to the Lord ShandoT
amendment. said that the council was
an essential part OF the government:
scheme. Hhis now was swept away b1
Lord Shandon's lamentable and reck.
| less amendment. He doubted whether
the bin would survive such a sewers
blow.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Republican
leaders in the house are preparing to
complete reorganization of the conf
mittee on appropriations in conformity
with a resolution adopted last session
increasing it's membership to 30 and
placing all appropriation measures in
it's hands. The IA additional members
will be selected by the committee on

tative Madden of Illinois. a member of
the Republican steering committee.
and Representative Butler OF Pennsyl-
vania, chairman OF the naval affairs
committee. conferred today in con-
nection with the matter.
Later Mr.. Aondell said that in his
opinion the house probably would not
have consolidated all appropriations
under one committee had it known
that President Wilson was going to
veto the executive budget measure, to
which this step was supplemental
Without the budget, he said, he be-
| lieVed il would take longer to act on
! the appropriation measures through
one committee than If the old system
was stiH in vogue. Mr.. Mondell ad-
l OeQv however LfltI ne 1AkOTeu carry

The Republican floor leader thought
very little could be done at this short

tion measures, although he added thai
no one could say at this time what the
legislative program would be.
The Republican caucus rule, leader!
said, prevented membership on more
than one of. the primary committees
