IRISH FREE STATE A REALTY
England After Centuries, Finally cuta
Reins on Island. House Of Lords
Passes Final Settlement Plan.

London, Dec. 4.--The centures-old
struggle between England and Ireland
ended tonight when the legislation
giving the sanction of law to the new
settlement with Ireland passed it,
final stage in the house of lords which
for generations has bitterly opposed
any concessions to Ireland.
The constitution bill has gone
through both houses of parliament
without any amendment and even
without being challenged.
Preparations for the rormalities Of
inaugurating the government and APP
pointing an Irish senate were afoot
in Dublin today, but it probably will
be the end of the week before the
senate is completely constituted.
On the whole, the new government
of the Irish Free STATE comes into
being under good auspices so far as
England is concerned, the press and
public, with very few exceptions, be-
ing entierly sympathetic.
