British Cabinet Refuses Sim
Fein Republic Demand.
Cannot Be Allowed to Leave
British Empire.
ULTIMATUM WAS PROPOSED
Irish Leaders Declare New Note
VIII Be Accepted.
Valera Still Breathes Defiance
to Premier Lloyd George.

inverness, Gcotland, Sept. THE
British cabinets reply to the Sim
Fein's latest peace note agrees to Il
peace conference with Ireland having
dominion status, but adheres to the
principle that Ireland shall not be
allowed to separate from the British
empire This is rejection of the Sim
Fein demand for an Independent re-
public.
The drafting of the English answer
to the Sim Fein note of last Thurs
day was completed at the afternoon
session of the cabinet. King George,
who is at Moyhan not far from In
verness, was. notified of the cabinets s
decision.
r. c. Barton, Sim Fein courier
who has been at Inverness since the
Sim Fein note was delivered to Pre-
naier Lloyd George last week, was
summoned to the town hall, where
the cabinet held its sessions at $3.50
o'clock. 1t was expected he would
catch a train leaving shortly after 8
o'clock with the reply.
UItimatum Was Proposed.
1t was proposed that a virtual ulti-
matum be sent to EamOnn De Valera
time in which to accept or reject the
British offer of dominion status for
Ireland.
Mr. De Valera had apparently
served notice in a statement issued to
the press in Dublin yesterday that
such an ultimatum would be tanta-
mount to a denunciation of the truce
which has been in force in Ireland
for the last two months. He stated
that an ultimatum would be THE i'm
position of force and would mean war,
not peace"
Dc Valera is Defiant.
Eamonn de Valera is still breathing
defiance against England as was shown
by his Dublin statement of Tuesday,
when he attacked the British proposals
and challenged the government to
send an ultimatum to Dublin.
The absence of conciliation on the
part of the Sim Fein chief has not
eased the path of the British delibera-
tions and it was reported that the
cabinet meeting might last until to-
morrow.
Sim Fcin Will Yield.
Dublin, Sept THE Sim Fein will
entcr a peace conference with the
English government regardless OF
whether the British recognize the
Irish republic, it was announce this
afternoon by responsible Republican
leaders.
Irish leaders were apparently anx'
fous to dispel the British belief thai
nrecognitioD of the republic must pre-
cede any further direct negotiation:
between the Sim Fein and the Eng
lish government
Neither Eamonn de Valera nor the
Sim Fein cabinet intend that the Eng
lish should recognize the IRISH republic
before any further steps are taken,
on Sim Fein chieftain said Blu
we wish to approach the converse tions
unfettered. We do not wish. to be
restricted"
Every one here recognizes that Ire
lands fate is in the balance as the
British cabinet is meeting at 1nvern ess
The decision is being awaited with th'
greatest anxiety.
The keynote of the general senti'
ment was sounded by the Freeman''
Journal which said: More can bt
done in half an hours direct talk thar
in reams of notes.
