London. The government's military
precautions to preserve order la
Ulster have precipitated a crises with
out parallel in tho history of the Brit
ish army. Jtatbor than be placed la
a position where they might be called
upon to act against the Ulster Coven
anters, numbers of officers have re
slKned their commissions.
1 While the War Ofllce refuses to ssy
how many hsve resigned, popular be
lief, based on reports from tho differ
ent regiments, Is Hint the number of
withdrawals has crippled the whole
military organization In Ireland and
prevented carrying out the orders for
moving several large bodies of troops.
Tubllo curiosity is at fever heat
ever the question of how the govern
ment Is to deal with the resignations.
The Liberal sentiment Is that the
seceding officers should be court-martialed.
Many Conservatives argue that
the situation amounts to civil war and
that the officers should hsve liberty
to choose which faction they should
ally themselves with.
Summons To Roberts.
The entrance of King George on the
scene as peacemaker was the drainatlo
event of the day. He had long confer
ences with the Prime Minister, Mr.
Asquith, the Secretary of State for
War, Colonel Seely, and several high
officers and afterward summoned Field
Marshal I-ord Roberts, who has been
much criticised by the Liberals for
utterances which they construed as
encouragement to the officers to refuse
to obey orders.
From the palace the veteran field
marshal drove directly to the War
Officp, where he had a long talk with
the secretary for war.
In the meantime the movement of
troops continued in Ireland. The cen
ter of Interest shifted to Cunagh, 2i
miles from Dublin, where the Third
Cavalry Ilrlcade, under General Gougb,
and the Fourteenth Infantry Drlgade,
under Colonel Itolt, are stationed.
Gen. Sir Arthur Paget, commanding
the forces In Ireland, spent the day In
camp. He hold a conference with CO
officers of the Curragh, Dublin, Kildare
and Nowbrldxe garrisons. It was said
that orders had arrived for the dls
pstch of the Third Brigade to Ulster,
but that these could not be carried
Into execution because practically all
the officers had resigned. Orders for
the dispatch of the Sixteenth Lancers
also failed of execution by reason of
the same wholesale retirements of
officers.
Resigning By Wholesale.
According to Home reports, the mili
tary men hsve unanimously refused in
formation, but a Dublin dispatch says
that the resignations from tho Curragh
forces number forty. Other advices
place the number at 100.
The government Is embarrassed by
the disaffection, which even exists
among the officers who continue on
duty, for the army la officered from
the aristocratic families and the great
majority of tho aristocratic class sym
pathize with the Covenanters.
To Serve Only On Police Duty.
London. The Throne is throwing
all of its Influence on the side ot con
ciliation, and others are also working
to that end.
The leaders of the opposing sides
are counseling their followers to exer
cise moderation and self restraint.
It Is reported In Dublin that out of
76 army officers 70 flatly, refused to
serve In Uuster, offering to resign.
They were finally persuaded to go
to Ulster, but for policy duty only and
with the understanding that they
would not engage in hostilities against
the Ulslerltes.
Among those who offered their
resignation Is lord ln-waitlng to the
King.
