“Tho Russian delegation declared its refusal Saturday to discuss the pro- posed peace terms. in view ol’ the continuation ot activities, despite rc- newal of the work of the peace con- ference. Tire demand to cease the German offensive has been denied. Under the circumstances the treaty was simply an ,0ltimatuni. supported by armed outrage.
“'l`hc Russian delegation, while

CAREEN AND
DEATH I
OF' JOHN REDMOND
One of IreIand’s Most Distinguished Sons.
'l‘iic telcgi-anis yesterday announc-
ed the death of Mr. John Edward
Redmond, the irish leader. The in- tlmation was unexpected as no pre-
vious intimatlon had been received oi’ his illness. His death esD0¢IfiIlY at this particular' juncture. will be re-l
ceived with the deepest regret the| world over, for to Mr. Redmond, more than probably any other man did thel British Empire and the United States look for leadership and guidence in the troubled situation in ireland.
Mr. -Redmond, who, after the death
oi' Charles Stewart Parnell, becanio
the recognized leader of the Irish party in the British Parliament. was
iicll faction and made every ci`l'ori to bring about ii conciliation between the -factions and the unification ol' the various elements ilito lr well organiz- ed and liarinonious body. In 1896 Mr. Redmond visited the United
States to deliver his lecture. "Fifteen Years in the British Parliameiit." and to accomplish the delicate mis- sion oi' compromising the factional differences existing in the irish party. How well lie succeeded was demon-
strated four years later, when lie was
unanimously elected chairman ot' the United irish Nationalist party at li
meeting ireid in ‘tire committee room oi' the House of Commons, February
horn in 1851, the son of the late Wil-;l_;_ 1900_
liani Archer Redmond. who sat in,
Parliament as n representative of! Ballytrent and Wexford from 1872 to’
1880. His father was wealthy and John E. Redmond received a good.- clasi-ilcal education. first at the Jesuit College at Clongowes Wood. near Dublin. and later at Trinity College. Dublin. where he distinguished him- self as a student and won several prizes for scholarship.
After leaving college young lied-
inond began to prepare himself i'0l° his iuturr parliamentary career- Througii his fu.tlicr's influence he ob- tained a position ns clerk in the
ilouso of Commons and the insight- lnto parliamentary methods and prac-
tices which bo gained in that posi- tion was oi' mutorial help to him 111101' ou. when he became ii inombcr of Parliament himself. Ho also devo- ted himself to the study of law uilll
(iray`s Inn mid li year later oi` the lrisii bar. But lie.nevei' practised his profession to any great extent. because his political duties occupied nearly all his time. Fortunately iill* wealth permitted him to sacrlilcc the rouiunorative curocr of a lawyer T01' the sake of an honorable. tlioulyll ull' remunerative, public career.
Mr. Redmond entered Parliaiiieril
as member ~for New Ross in 1881. was elected lor Wexford ili 1885 and since 1891 represented Waterford Wltiiouif interruption. .His Dllfllfi' mcntary career during the ilrst tcil rears, although exceedingly storms# did not give Mr. Redmond an ollli0l" iilillli’ to gain public distinction. HH liillliated himself with the irish Dill” li' and became one of the most vil- iliable lieutenunts of Parnell wl\0 was then the leader of the irish Na- ilonaliste in Parliament.
In 1885, in company with his bro- ther. William Redmond, he made- 8 lecturing trip in the interest of the irish cause to Australia. where iw inet and married his tirst wife, \v\l0 ~ died after a few years. Toward the close of the '90s he married Meill- UIIS time ln 'irish girl of great beau- 'Y» I Mila Johanna Dalton. Wll0- *~°‘ Ketiior with two daughters survive' mm- Oils of the daughters is mar- fled to c New York physician. while "‘° ether. who snnilsa at lhsnoyal “'““r»iiv. nouns, nm with iwr mo- ther in Wexford. ~
After the death of‘l5ai-neil there
I
eventually became a barrister of|
lin 1901 Mr. Redmond. with Messrs.
Patrick 'McHugh and Tlioinas O‘Doii- neil, again went to America to ex- plain to the people of the United States .the purpose and scope oi' the United irish league. His visit in 1901 was pai'-ticular-ly interesting, owing to the developments growing out of the Boer war. He visited near- ly all the large cities of the country and was received with enthusiasm everywhere during.his tour.
Mr. Redmond's parliamentary ca-
reer wns always rather strenuous. it was ii continuous struggle for the interests of the irish cause. During tho earlier part of his cnrocr Mr. lied- nionll was often aggressive to such an oxtcnt that hc carrie in conflict with tho Speaker. 'but lic lcitriied i'roin ox- perleiice and realized that boisterous tactics were not illkcly to increase thc respect for the irish members or the llouso. lie continued to iight leur- lessly. but took care to keep within constitutional bounds. Gradually. by the power of his orutory. his modera- tion lind his skillful diplomacy. Mr. Redmond won tho respect and friend- ship of the lending men oi’ other Dill" iles and succeeded in obtaining many valuable concessions lil U10 Illt0i'0HI-H of lrelaiid. I-le was instrumental in procuring the passage of tho two great land acts. brought about the settlement oi' the lrislr university question and other reform ineasurel! for thc benellt oi Ireland. By i0l‘C0 of his brilliant leudcrslilp itollmond conipollcd ilic grunt issue oi' the poo- plo against the Lords to bcconic tho supreme test of British politics and gave to his Dorty tho balance oi' po- wer in the House of Commons. He forced M|._ Agqnitli toy place the Home Rule Bill on the statute book. bu; agreed to its suspension until af- ter the war. He opposed the Sinn
Fein movement not on its princlblfig
ri inators. u
which latterly dominated its coun- cils. Mr. Redmond ran candidate against the Sin Fein candidates in all recent by-elections. Although 0D' posed to the Physical force viirty. Mr. Redmond was not siitislled that

At ai large and i'epi‘csentative nicel-

WHEREAS this Board made repre-
sentations to the goveriinieiit early in the year 1917 that the broadening oi' the gauge of the Prince Edward ls- iand Railway' was essential to the successful trniisportntion oi' goods and products to and from this Pro- viircc. and
WHEREAJS the goveriimerit. for
reasons which they, considered sill- ilcloiit. did not deeiri it advisable to accede to the request. of this Board and numerous other representations
.made from this Province in this rc-
spect. and
WHEREAS the result ul' the l'allu|'l~
to provide the broad gauge for our iliiliivay has been exemplified during the pai-it fall and winter in as much as our transportation facilities have ‘been iii. tlnies ciitllrl-.ly iiiiidcqiiatc and at no time within the last six inontiis luis lilo licpmiiiicrii. of lluilwuys iiecii abil-. lo cicur up the coiigcsllon of frciglii. nnli

The motion was strongly :~:upporicd
tho l’i‘esident oi' the llonrll of 'i`rndc, Mr. ll. V..Buntei|i.
eondemniitory oi' the irish policy unll pleading for better handling of the situation. lest thc physical force par- ty should galil farther on the consti- tuoinal -party and undo all that had been done to brliig about li peaceable settlement in ireland. The effect of this motion, though defeated in the Commons, was to strengthen the hands of Mr Redmond in llreland with the result tirat his candidate in the liiiit by-election was returned by an overwhelming majority. _
Mr. lledmond’s death will prove nn
almost irreparable loss to the irish Parliamentary Party and will be a se- vere blow to the Government as well. for it depended largely on Mr. Red- lbond because of the moderating. and conciliatory influence he had in ii-ish politics. ‘
