THE MORXING OREGOTflAy. WTTNSTAY. JULY 15, 1914. I j LORDS VOTE TO DELAY HOI RULE King Is Empowered to Sus pend Enforcement but No Enthusiasm Shown. BILL GOES TO COMMONS Government, Opposing Motion of Lord Dunraven, Declares Pro posal Is Purely Academic and Possesses No Merit. LO.DO., July 14. Sir Edward Car son was hurriedly summoned from Bel fast to London tonight to attend a con ference looking; to a settlement of the borne rule dispute. A steamer was speclallr atopped for the lister leader, who abandoned sev eral Important ennaajementa to rush back to the capital. LONDON. July 1. The House of Lords passed today third reading of the bill to amend the Irish home rule bill, and sent it across to the House of Commons for consideration. Before the passage of the third read ing of the bill, the Earl of Dunraven moved the Insertion of a new clause providing that the King might, by an order In council, suspend the opera tions of the home rule act until a com mission reported on the constitutional relations of Ireland to the other parts of the United Kingdom. Dunraven Amedment Adopted. He argued that means of such a commission there would be hope of creating a situation which might lead some day to a satisfactory final set tlement of the whole problem and that peace might be achieved without dis memberment. Lord Dunraven'a motion was adopted without division, although it aroused Bo enthusiasm. The Marquis of Lansdowne said it was vague and open to the objection of putting the whole empire into the melting pot on the chance of getting the government out of a purely domes tic difficulty. Delay Declared Impossible. Affairs in Ulster, he declared, brooked no delay and under no cir cumstances would his side of the House accept the clause as a substitute for their own amendments. If these were accepted and incorporated In the act there might be considerable advantage In the proposed Inquiry. Lord Morely of Blackburn, in behalf of the government, described it as pure ly an academic proposition brought forward at the moment of the crisis, for which th,ere was no precedent With regard to the other amend ments adopted by the House of Lords, lie said, their effect would be to em bitter relations and increase the diffi culties of a settlement. They amount ed virtually to an elaborate method of rejecting the bill. It would have been far more straightforward, he declared. If they had voted for Lord Willoughby do Brokers motion for the rejection of the amending bill. UNTANGLING IS NECESSARY Washington Fish Bill May Lack 408 Signatures After Adjustment. OLYMPIA.
