THE IRISH BETTLEMENT-
It would be well-nigh impossible to ex- aggerate the relief that was felt when it Was announced here that agreement had been reached over, the Irish question. For a long while the situation had been a black as it could be. Until the last moment the Press accounts of the pro- gress of the negotiations at 10. Downing Street contained scarcely a glimmer of hope that a settlement would be arrived .at. But suddenly came the welcome news and the delight on all s'den was un restrained There was however, no public manifestation; the people of this count are not built that way. What was noticcable was that wherever men med in the rain and elsewhere tha Irish anttio- ment was referred to as a matter that gave just grounds for satisfaction,

In London for many weeks past every one who bad inside knowledge of the situation was aware that the leaders on both sides wanted peace. The British Government wanted it. It was eagerly desired by Mr. Arthur. Griffiths and Mr. Michael Collins, the Botha and Smuts of Ireland. But there were the ex- tremists who had to be reckoned with These people made attempts at agreement almost impossible by insisting on ancient thibboleths and out-worn catchwords."

Now, the War Office gives a complete and unqualified denial to the story. The woman was, in fact, a prisoner at the time she was supposed to have been dining with the British officer, and she was immediately -deported-after-her a known spy, but because she had release from gaol-not because she was travelled beyond the prescribed limit from her place of residence in enemy aliou.
