Ireland at Twickenham is interpreted as due to a desire to show his personal concern in the Irish crisis. It was the more noteworthy as he did not visit the Welsh match on itie game ground. The Daily Citizen, commenting on (he present conversations of the King and Premier on the whole Irian matter, says Mr. Asquith, like the King, cannot afford to let slip any opportunity of showing that he will act wherever Irish sentiment is concerned.
The Daily Citizen mentions the growing signs of Liberal revolt owing to the proposals for compromise and adds: "It is suggested that Court influences have made themselves felt. There will ba much suspense in Liberal circles until Mr. Asquith announces his intentions. Meanwhile the results of the pending by-elections are expected to have considerable influence on his decision."
