HOME RULE FOR IRELAND
THE -'ALL-FOR-IRELAND" LEAGUE. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Received 8, 5.5 p.m. London, January 7. Mr. William O'Brien and his wife have contributed £IOOO to the All-for-Ireland League. MR. O'BRIEN TWITS THE IRISH. "A RIDICULOUS PROMISE." Received 8, 5.5 p.m. London, January 7. ■ Mr. Wm. O'Brien, at Cork, declared that Mr. Birrell had frankly and publicly told the Irish people that even if the Lords adopted the Veto Bill three times running in the present Parliament, under no circumstances could Home Rule be a question of practical politics before another general election. If, in the face of that warning, the Irish swallowed the ridiculous promise of an Irish Parliament before the Coronation, the Liberals were not to blame. It was on the strength of that promise that Mr. Redmond had cheated his fellow-countrymen in America out of £40,000.
