MOVE TO RESTORE
PEACE IN IRELAND
PLAN CONCENTRATES INDUCING
ULSTER LEADERS TO AGREE
TO PARTITION PROPOSAL.
Negotiations Said to Be In Progress
Between British Prime Minister
and Ulster Leader with Hope
Of Reaching Settlement.

Dublin.--Interesting rumors are cir
culatlng in Dublin with regard to fresh
efforts the government is reported TO
be making to effect a settlement with
Ireland. The heller is growing that
an important development may come
TO light when parliament reconvenes.
According TO one report, the govern
ment Is trying to bring the Ulster lead
ers into line with a well-formulated
scheme 20 persuade the south to ac-
cept the partition provided for IN the
home rule act and work under II. This
version Of the reputed plans has 1t
that the prize to be offered for ac-
ceptance Is grant of full fiscal
autonomy to both sections of Ireland.
This would be coupled, so far as the
south Is concerned. with an offer to
release political prisoners and grant
amnesty to Irish republicans general
ly, including members OF the Irish re-
publican army. and even men ION the
run"
Negotiations to this end are now pro
ceeding, It is said, between Mr.. Lloyd
George, the prime minister, and SIT
Edward Carson, Ulster leader, in the
British parliament, on the outcome OF
which depends whether the plan will
be formally announced.
Representatives of the Sim Feln
have refused to treat the reported
scheme seriously saying that until
some concrete. bona fide proposals had
actually been made they would not
waste time in speculation.
Prominent Nationallsts, when their
views were sought In the same con
nection, said they had no doubt that n
concession of fiscal autonomy would
90 far toward satisfying the Irish
peoples demand for independence,
and. II offered in generous spirit,
would greatly weaken the position of
the Sim Feln II the republican parlia-
ment should reject II.

Berlin.-The ministry of finance has

Guiding all she has so far paid in cash
and goods, according to information

This 150,O0O,OO0,OO0 marks would be

outlined by the newspapers informant,
who also Is quoted as declaring that
the proposal to pay 1t would be sub

measures such as an invasion of the

In the Deutsche Zeltung's article the
suggestion was made that, while the
entente vas extremely DESTROYS OF
bringing about the London conference,
II was not unlikely that the dellbera-
lions would be postponed to date
around the middle of March, In order
to give the new Washington govern

DEBT REPEATING
PROMISE DENIED
CLAIM THAT WILSON MADE SUCH
SUGGESTION BRANDED AS
LACKING TRUTH.
Position at Peace Conference Declared
to Have Been That Obligations
by Allies to America
Must be Paid.

Wnshlngton.-Not only Is 1t untrue
that President Wilson at the Paris
peace conference promised the repre-
sentatives OF the allied powers that
when the senate had ratified the peace
treaty he would make every effort to
have the United States government
cancel the debts owed TO It by the
allies, but written proof exists that the
presidents position was quite to the
contrary. In responsible and thor
oughly informal official quarter this
positive assertion was made Sunday
night In answer 10 published state
ments that the senate committee on
foreign relations knew that the presi-
dent had given such assurances at
Paris.
The information that the senate
committee had knowledge OF a promise
of that character by President Wilson
became a matter OF report In the capi-
tai Saturday after Davis +. Houston,
the secretary OF the treasury. had ap-
peared before the committee on
foreign relations at his own request
and informed 1t In confidence that j.
Austen Chamberlain, the British chan.
cellor of the excheduer. had made a
correct statement In his speech at
Birmingham, England. TO the effect
that Great Britain had made overtures
to the United States for the cancella-
ton of the allied war debt to this gov
eminent. Little OF the details Of Mr..
Houston's disclosures TO the commit
tee have become known. but II was
confirmed that he told the committee
that the proposal mentioned by Mr..
Chamberlain and concerning which
there has been so much official mys-
terry In Washington. had actually been
submitted by Great Britain.
Additional details obtained concern
ing the British advances along this
line brought to light that the proposal
had come directly to the treasury de-
partment from Mr.. Chamberlain as
head OF the British financial ministry
and not through the medium OF the
state department or any diplomatic
source. The suggestion was advanced
about ten months ago, but not In the
bald form I'm which II has been under
stood to have been made. Great
Britain, It was learned. had not asked
that the United States cancel the
British war Indebtedness 20 this gov
eminent, but had explained TO the
treasury department that, In the opln-
ion OF the British government, II would
be wise Procedure for all allied gov
ernments to cancel their foreign war
debts. The proposal or suggestion %
Mr.. chamberlain was that all "lnter-
governmental" debts be cancelled. As
surnnces were given that II this met
with the approval of the United States
the British government would cancel
all the debts owed to It by its allies.
