ULSTER’S POSITION.

United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright London, March 8 Sir Edward Carson, speaking at Belfast, said that if Sinn Fein terrors were attempted in Ulster the whole society would be organised to end the dastardly crimes. He denied that General Holman had been priaonered. Though the proceedings at the Ulster Unionist Council have not been divulged, it is reported that Sir E. Carson advocated acceptance of the new Home Rule Bill. Another account says that his speech was merely a judicial survey of various possible courses. He pointed out that the new Bill safeguards Ulster, also that the Homo Rule Bill now on the Statute Book will operate soon unless repealed. The Council will reassemble on Wednesday, after local consultations. It Is believed if the maimprinciples of the Bills are accepted, it will be conditionally on the inclusion of Donegal, Cavan and Monaghan in the Northern Parliament.
