NOT LORD NORTHCLIFFE
Text of the Disputed Going
to Shoot Irish Interview.

The reputed conversation between
King George and Premier Lloyd George.
over which has arisen a tempest, swirl
ing about the person of Lord North
cliffe, appeared last Monday morning
in the form OF an Interview in the New
York Times with II. Wickham Steed, cd
itor Of the London Times and compan-
ion OF Lord Northclifre on his present
tour. In the interview Mr.. Steed said
King George had taken q very active
part In the irish settlement negotia-
tions. and added:
"rt Is not generally known that under
the constitutional form OF government
the King has still n good deal of power
when ne chooses to use 1t. In this case
ne has done so with good effect At
the last meeting he had with Lloyd
George before leaving for Ireland the
King asked him, Are you going to
shoot all the people In IrelandT No,

King George went 20 Ireland intend

TIMES THROWS LIGHT
ON STEED INTERVIEW
Written by Trustworthy Re-
porter, Says N. Y. Paper.

The New York Times publishes this
morning the following note in connection
with a now famous Interview:
EDITORS Note-The interview with
Mr.. wickham Steed, editor OF the Lon
don Times. published in the New York
Times last Monday, was written by a
trustworthy reporter who believes that
he reported accurately what Mr.. Steed
said. Mr.. Steed has since told the Tssres
that 1t contained matters that should not
have been published. Mr.. Steed did not
have an opportunity TO revise the inter-
view.
"As reprinted in England-in one OF
Lord Northcliffe's own papers, according
TO cable despatches--it appears that the
Interview was incorrectly attributed to
Lord Northcllffe himself. Lord North
cliffe has not given to the Times, nor
has the Times reported him as giving.
any statement of a purported conversa-
tion between King George V. and Mr..
David Lloyd George.

NO REPORTS COMING
FROM ERIN ON PEACE
Valera Still Silent, Awaits Full
Meeting Of the Republican
Parliament.
BIZ the Associated Press.

LONDON. July 29-Eamon de Valera
still is silent, another day having passed
with no word from the republican
leader.
The general supposition now is that
there will be no new move in the peace
negotiations pending the expected re-
lease Of those members of the Dali
Eireann who are in jail. and the sum-
moning Of full meeting OF the republi-
can parliament. Mr.. de Valera for the
best part OF the last few days has gone
over the peace proposals with the avail
able members of the republican Cabinet,
and 1t IL expected when the Dali Eireann
Is called to consider what shall be the
decision. he will be ready to present the
views of his colleagues, as well as his
own opinion.
Temporarily, the peace negotiations
have been overshadowed by the ex-
traordinary action of the military au-
thorities in Ireland-Gen Sir Nevil Ma
cready, Major-Gen. Sir Edward Strick-
land and others--in defying the master
of the rolls by falling to comply with
writs of habeas corpus which he ordered
in connection with the sentencing OF
John Egan, and the reported spiriting
away Of Egan from the Limerick jail to
an unknown place.
What action the court win take is a
subject of discussion. as the arrest OF
those concerned for contempt OF court. 1t
is believed, would involve legal techni-
calities connected with the operation, or
otherwise, Of martial law.

DUBLIN, July as.--Mrs. J. w. Lindsay.
widow OF Cork land owner. who was
kidnapped from her home in coachtord
early in the year, was executed some
months ago on the charge that she was
directly responsible for conveying to the
enemy information which led to the exc
cution Of five of our men by the British
authorities. for the death OF sixth
from wounds received In action and for
the sentence OF twenty years penal
servitude passed upon seventh"
This information is contained in
letter which a sister of Mrs. Lindsay
has received from the 'Dai; Diracnn De-
fence Department" acquainting her with
the circumstances. "in accordance with
instructions by the President"
The letter says that the carrying out
of the sentence pronounced upon Mrs.
Lindsay was postponed while she wrote
to Ma1or-Gen. Strickland, division COM
mander in Ireland, pointing out the
consequences to herself should the men
be executed. They were executed.

land. was duly carried out The letter
concludes:

which necessitated the drastic action
by our local commanders"
The announcement OF the kidnapping
OF MrA Lindsay was contained in a Lon
don despatch OF February Is last. Her
house. large country estate. was
burned. The supposition was advanced
that Sim Feiners were responsible for
tho kidnapping and the burning. having
been suspicious that Mrs. Lindsay haa
given information to tho police concern
ing an ambuscade that was being laid
at Dripsey.
In March Major-Gen. Sir Edward

Mrs. Lindsay. saying

Nothing had been heard of Mrs. Lind

last week her sister issued an appeal
through the Irish newspapers on her
behalf. Mrs. Lindsay was so years Old

of reports of the Kings great personal
influence In the Irish settlement, and the
general public here seems more inclined
to be offended at Lord Northcliffe's
form OF statement than at what he said.
1t Is generally admitted and generally
regretted that such statements, II al
lowed to pass unchallenged. might wreck
irrevocably the Irish situation at Its most
delicate turn.
That was stated to constitute in Mr..
Lloyd Georges mind one-half of that
'malignity' of Northclifre's statement
which the Prime Minister so bitterly
denounced to-day. The other half is
that Lloyd George is genuinely anxious
to 60 to Washington for the disarma-
ment conference and Is genuinely optf-
mistic regarding what he may be able
20 effect during the course of the con-
ference there. He does not want to ap-
pear in America as representing a tot
tering and discredited administration
here
Another angle Of the situation Is that
Lord Northcliffes interview. as repro
duced here. according to the Evening
STANDARD, puts the literary manners
of the Dosly Mall itself into the mouth
of the British sovereign" The SOW
ereign's position is so peculiar under
the Constitution and Mr.. Lloyd Georges
fulfflment of his own position also Is
so peculiar, that anything tending to
oyerturn the delicate balance is deeply
resented here. The King is so much q
symbol of everything that is British and
patriotic. that the dragging of him into
what is called personal. partisan

attitude from that which was shown In
the last French note
The latest British note was described
to THE NEW York HERALD corre-
spondent here as 'digniied and express
ing panied surprise at frances atti-
tude, In contrast with the French note,
which was hot and offensive"
The British In their note were un-
usually direct and complained of the
extraordinary action on the part of
France in seeking to act Independently
of the Allied Supreme Council, and
plainly declared that further discussions
were useless until a clear understanding
Of Frances intentions were had. The
note refutes the French charge that Eng
land Is setting herself UP against the
French. thereby strengthening Ger
many's attitude. and explains that the
Government here told the Germans fiatly
II could not advise them on the ques-
tion OF providing trains for the trans
portation OF reenforcements for the
French forces now in Upper SIlesIa
Also the British note points out that
the threatened Independent action by
France is not a possible basis on which
to pursue any future policy together.
1t was learned that the British COM
munication expressed the view that the
Government here would fain not be-
licve" that the French note was con-
sidered the opinion OF the French Gov
ernment"
The British note on the whole is cf a
conc!,iatory nature, saying Great Britain
wished to maintain the solidarity OF ;he
Allies and expressing surprise at the
tone and the nature Of the contents of
the French communication.

WRITS AGAINST BRITISH
CHIEFS OUT IN DUBLIN
Court Charges Contempt

DUBLIN, July 29.--Writs of attach

Gen. Sir Nevil Macready, commander
Of the British troops In Ireland, and
Major-G Gen. Sir Edward p. Strickland,
commander In Munster. were issued
to-day by the Master of the Rolls. The
attorney for Gen. Macready and Gen.
Strickland and also for the Governor

writ was issued, announced that notice

1t Is reported that appeals will be
