IN THE HOUSE OF LORDS. . United Press Association—By Electrio Telegraph—'Copyright. (Received January 29, 10 a.m.) LONDON, January 28. Earl Grey, in the House of Lords, said that as a convinced federalist he was strongly opposed to' the Home Rule Bill. He preferred that tho Ulstermen in the north-east should be given self-government similar ,to that prevailing in Ontario. The Nationalists 'n the west and the south should have the same rights as the men of Quebeo. It was imperative, in the Empire's interests, that tho question should be settled on lines satisfying to the democracies in > the self-governing dominions, and in the. United States. Lord Dunraven said that the Bill was imcompatible with federation, and imposed no adequate check on the order of Hibernians. .
