The only new stipulation in- serted was one covering the British and not the Irish parliament. The moment the demand was put for- ward by the unionists that Ireland should be represented at Westminster only in proportion to her population, except when the question of the Irish settlement was under consideration, it had to be conceded. “It is true that the home-rule act lis on the statute books, but only with the pledge that if it becomes oper- ative an amending bill is to be passed dealing with the exclusion of Ulster.” The secretary said the main prin- ciples of the settlement remain, namely, the immediate creation of an Irish ~parliament, exclusion for the present for that part of Ireland which 18 unwilling to participate in the home-rule measure and consideration of the whole question of the future of the Irish government by an im- perial conference at the close of the war.

Freddie Welsh Is Bested by Leonard In Eight of Rounds New York, July 29.—Benny Leon- ard outfought Freddie Welsh, the lightweight champion, in eight rounds of a ten-round bout in Brook- lyn tonight. Welsh was in much better shape than when he fought the New York lightweight about four months age. The champion weighed at the ring- side 133% pounds, while” Leonard seemed just a trifle overtrained. During the first five rounds Leon- ard did by far the cleaner work, his jabs landing” forcefully on Welsh's face and head, while he occassionally ripped in_ strong left and right bod: blows. In those rounds WellK scemed to be too carefully guarding — | his jaw and consequently fell short. |- Welsh cut loose in the sixth ard | seventh rounds and gave an exhibi- tion of his old-time skill, landing right and left hooks to the head and body and making a rally in a neutral corner during the sixth. In the sev- {enth, after an exchange of body by a good margin. | But these two were Welsh’s only | rounds, Leonard outboxed and out- | pointed the champion in the ninth and tenth rounds, during which his foot- |work and quick dodging made Welsh’s effort seem somewhat wild. Both men clinched occasionally to- ward the end of the bout, but Welsh was the more guilty of the two in this respect.
