Followed by Cabinet Meeting
:‘i‘lONDON, March '23.--A much easier
feeling has been created in the British
isles by the reassuring statement giv-
en out by Premier Asquith in regard
to the movements of troops in Ulster.
which he said had been made only as
a precautionary measure, and for the
protection of government property.

ment’s intentions in respect to the
army officers who did not desire to
serve against the Orangemen had been
misinterpreted.
