THE CRISIS.
ULSTER AND HOME RULE.
■ UNIONIST LEADER VISITS THE KING.
SIR EDWARD CARSON'S WARNING. APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE. By Telezrapli—Press Association-Copyright London, September 14. Sir Edward Carson, M.P., speaking at Durham, in reply to Lord Loreburn, said that his Lordship's letter to tho press showed that serious thinking men were at last realising the gravity of tlio situation. But, he added, thero was no possibility of reconciling Nationalists and Ulsternion, and a conference must prove abortivo. Ulster would never abandon the principle of government by the' Imperial Parliament, but outside £hat would make many sacrifices in Srdor to come to an agreement. Lord Loreburn, ho added, underrated the' probablo disturbances in Ulster in the event of Homo Rule being carried. Thero were not going to be spasmodic riots; if tho Bill was persisted ill, Ulster was going to make government under Ilomo Rule impossible. It was the Premier's duty to save tho King from a vortex and place liiin on suro ground, by advising an. appeal to tlio people. Informal suggestions have been made that tlio King should take tho initiative in regard to a Home Rule Conference, if the parties aro agreeable. Mr. William O'Brien, Leader of the Independent Nationalists, states that neither tho Liberals, the Unionists, nor the .Rednionditos, can or will refuso to participate if the King invites them to a conference. After visiting Lerd Lansdowne (Leader pf tho Unionists in tlio House of Lords), Mr. Bonar Law (Leader of tho Opposition) has gono to Balmoral Castle at tho King's invitation. THE ONLY- SURE GROUND. "Times"—Sydney "Sun" Special Cablee. (Rcc. September 15, G. 55 p.m.) London, September 15. . Sir Edward Carson, in his speech at Durham, said that lio was opposed to any suggestion that tlio King should take tho initiative in calling a Home Rule confereuco and deprecated his Majosty being drawn into politics. The only sure ground of sottloment was an appeal to the people.
