LONDON. Nov. 17.-Ulster's reply
to the latest British government com
munication on the question OF an Irish
settlement was delivered at Downing
street .his afternoon. 1t indicates
that Ulster stands firm in the attitude
she has taken and will not submit to
anything considered a violation of her
rights.
Confidence among the British gov
ernments supporters that Prime Min
lister Lloyd Georges attitude toward
Ulster in the Irish peace negotiations
will be sustained in the national con-
ference of the Unionist party increas-
ed as the meeting convened today in
Liverpool. Some l 800 delegates are
attending the conference
There was a growing feeling over
night that the sensational develop
ments predicted in some quarters-in-
Guiding a conservative secession led
by Andrew Bonar Law-would not oc-
cur and that the governments polr
would receive the calm endorsement of
the convention by a great majority.
Withdraw Resolutions.
This feeling was supported by news
that the Unionist "die hards" had with
drawn four of the five resolutions they
had planned to offer, deciding to pre-
sent only the comparatively innocuous
one to be moved by Col. John Gretton,
member of parliament for Rutland
shire
This calls upon the conference to
record its condemnation of the long
continued asCendancy of crime and
rebellion in Ireland, and resolve that
no settlement of the Irish question is
acceptable which does not respect alb
solutely the position acquired by VI
ster and provide every safeguard es-
sential for imperial security and the
protection of the Loyalists in the west
and south of Ireland" To this an
amendment wishing success to the
peace negotiations will be moved by
Sir Laming Worthington-E Evans, secre-
taTy of war
AT meeting of Unionists of eleven
divisions of Birmingham in Liverpool
last night a resolution expressing
hearty approval of the governments
efforts toward peace was adopted.
1t is reported that Sir James Craig,
the Ulster premier has arrived in Liv-
erpool to attend the conference. Pre-
mier Lloyd George will not go to Lfv-
erpool, having journeyed to Bourne
mouth, a seaside resort, for q brief
rest. He expects to receive today the
Ulster reply to the governments com
munication rejecting the Ulsterites
counter proposals which outlined the
terms acceptable to them as a basis
for peace.
