DUBLIN, Dec. 13.-Great interest
and some anxiety prevails in Dublin,
in fact throughout the whole of Ire
land, tonight concerning tomorrow's
meeting OF the Dali Eireann. which is
to decide whether there shall be peace
with Great Britain. 1t is considered
possible that there may be no direct
vote In the parliament on the question
Of acceptance or rejection of the treaty
arranged in London--that 1t may be
referred to a plebiscite Of the people to
decide whether the agreement which
Arthur Griffith and the other Sim
Fein plenipotentiaries made viii, the
British government shall be accepted.
The question rests with tho Dali
Elreann, which was elected on a re-
publican mandate. and while a ma
iority OF the people of southern ire
land are declared to be desirous Of
peace. there were few tonight who
would venture a guess on the final re-
suit This possibly will not be arrived
at until Thursday evening.
There viii be I20 members Of the
Dali Elreann present at the session
tomorrow I'll the Mansion House.
Among these will be Arthur Griffith,
who will move the adoption of the
agreement reached in London and who
can safely account for 40 votes in the
affirmative. famon DeValera, who is
opposing his old comrade, is said also.

How the remaining forty members
win vote nobody but themselves know.

and have not hitherto expressed an
opinion on tho question at issue, one
way or the other. AS one comman-

himself favors the management, said
