DEADLOCK OVER TREATY.
ALLEGED VIOLATION OF TERMS. (Received May 31st, 5.6 p.m.) LONDON, May 31. According to the ''Daily Chronicle," tho convereations, between the Government and the Sinn Feiners resulted i» a deadlock. Mr Churchill to-day will point out the gravity of the situation. Tho Government stands for the Treaty, which the Free Staters claim lias not been violated by their pact, but obviously it is, as tho June elections arranged under the pact are not the elections proscribed by the Treaty. The deadlock for tho moment is complete, though the Government will-again discuss the issues with the Irishmen. Groat Britain considers it is undesirable to precipitate a crisis by any hasty action, and will exercise the patience shown during the negotiations for peace. If tine Free Staters show no spirit of compromise, a crisis cannot bo delayed beyond the June elections. It is persistently rumoured in political circles that Mr Lloyd George intends to appeal to tho electors on tho Irish question.
