THE IRISH CRISIS
PEACE NEGOTIATIONS. LORD DUNRAVEN’S SOLUTION. STATUS OF A KINGDOM. Pima A»«oci»tion—By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, September 11. Lord Dunraven, in a letter to The Times, urged the restoration of the former status of a Kingdom of Ireland under the British Crown as being preferable to a dominion status, which politically expresses the material growth of tho Empire, but does not meet Ireland’s case, which never was a colony, and therefore is not an Imperial entity. On the other hand, Ireland has ever protested against its deprivation of its former status of a Kingdom and a Constitution. Lord Dnnraven thinks that Sinn Fein, having acknowledged that the two islands are closely linked by physical and historical factors, 'would make a satisfactory arrangement on these lines which would not be difficult of attainment, and would meet some idealist objections to the present proposals.—Times. CAUGHT A TARTAR. • __ POSTMISTRESS ROUTS BANDITS. LONDON,' September 10. Four armed men entered the post office in North Queen street. Belfast, and shouted “Hands up!” Tho postmistress seized inkstands and threw them at the intruders’ heads, causing them to flee precipitately.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
