ULSTER AND HOME RULE
TROUBLE FOR MR. CHURCHILL LEGAL VOTE CALLED FOR. By Telegraph.— Anocialioflii-Oopyriahl). London, January 18. Writing in the. Pall Mall Gazette, Mr. W. T. Stead quotes a recent magisterial decision binding over a man to keep the peace bemuse his proposed utterances were calculated to cause a breach of the peace. This, argues Mr. Stead, leaves Mr. Birrell (Chief Secretary for Ireland) no other course than to legally prohibit Mr. Churchill's projected meeting at Belfast. ~ The irritation in Belfast at Mr. Churchill's visit is chiefly due to the proposal to use Ulster Hall. Little feeling would have been evoked if St. Mary's Hall, where the Nationalists are in the habit of assemblipg, had been utilised. Captain Craig (Conservative M.P. for Down East) said that Ulster was determined that Mr. Churchill's meeting should not take place. Every ingenuity would be displayed to prevent a rebel, crew dishonouring the historic Ulster Hall.
