Home Rule Crisis

MR. REDMOND AT WATERFORD. NO LIKELIHOOD OF WAR. By Cable —Press Association—Copyright Loudon, January 25.

Mr. Redmond, in a speech at Waterford, declared that Ulster's goodwill was worth purchasing at a big price. There were no lengths, short of the abandonment «f his principles, to which he would not go to win that confidence, but he did not see a prospect of goodwill being purchased at any price at ail. The talk of civil war was absurd, as the Ulstermen would never be attacked. Mr. Redmond declared that the contest between two Nationalists at Cork at present was a scandal, and a serious blow to the cause.
