Belfast, July 22ud.—>ir James Craig, Premier of Ulster, declared this atter- noon that the report that he contempla- ted resignirg to take a colonial appoint- ment was a malicious falsehood. The report, which received wide =zircuiation beforp it was overtaken by the Prensier's denial, was apparently bas2d on the ab- sence of Sir James from Belfast last week during the Orange demonstrations. Panama City, July 2llst.—Reports re- ceived here of rumours circulated iu the United States that the Panama Canal had been closed because of land slides, caased much surprise in the canal zone.

We have been gravely anx- jous the past few weeks regarding [For- eien Affairs, said Sir William, with a constant series of cabinet meetings 'n the last fortnight to arrive at some posi- tion of stability on the continent ending in the despatch of a very long consider- ed, very anxiously cared for draft letter, in the hope of arriving at a solution jointly with the Allies, so as io ensure the peace of the world. The Government, declared the speaker, desired to see the late enemy pay what he eould and that justice be done to the claicas of the Al- lies, as well as Great Britain, but it was impossible not to realize that until sta- bility was achieved in Europe, the trade on whieh Grroat britain vitally depended could never be sutisfactory. Today the w hole of Kurope was unable t» trad: and unable to pay, beecause of the condition in Centra! Europe. He appeaied to he Allies and the whole worid for what was the world’s greatest recd, world peace. Brussels, July 220 d —The British note (n reparations on its arrival here by special courier was immediately ex.amin- ed by Premier Theunis and Foreign Min- ister Jaspar and then translated. Both ministers studied it thoroughly and drew up points to constitute a basis for discus- sion at a council conterence tcmorrow, which was especially called for this pur- pose. The fe ling in official quarters can be described as still optimistic and it is tkought the diplomatic conversations, which now are entering upon a period ot great activity, will be aided .by dev:lop- ments in the situation in Germany which are considered to be evolving rapidiy in a direction favourabie to the Frarco Bel- gian policy. No nomediate conversartions between the French and Belgian minis- ters are contemplated at present, bui the discussion will be continued through di- plomatic ehannels. London, July 24th.—A match betweegg the West Indian touring cricketers and Dublin University was commenced «t
