IRISH QUESTION IN THEJ5ALANCE British Cabinet Meets to Draw Up Answer to Re ply of De Valera. Inverness, Scotland, Sept. 7. (By the Associated Press.) Settlement of the Irish question appeared to hang in the naiance when members of the British ministry met Prime Minister Lloyd George her? today. It was said the ministers' were not at all in agree ment as to the best method of proce dure to be adopted, some favorinar fur ther exchange of notes with the Irish J Pinn Fein. Others were said to be pro-1 posing hat a virtual ultimatum be sent Eamonn de Valera, giving him and his colleagues a fixed time in which to accept or reject the British offer of dominion status for Ireland. Mv. De Valera had served notice in a statement issued to the press in Dublin yesterday that such an ultimatum would be tantamount to a denunciation of the truce which has been in force in Ireland for the last two months. He statel that ai ultimatum would be "the imposition of force and would mean war, net peace." This state ment did not tend to make easier the task of the ministers who arrived here today from London, but Prime Minister Lloyd George was represented as being opposed to breaking off negotiations with the Sinn Fein. Kin:.i George is staying at Moy Hall; near hero, i.nd his presence in the im mediate neighborhood is looked upon as most opportune, as he has in the past few months played a particularly influential role in the work of handling the Irish question. Mr. Lloyd George and the King 'have been in close touch during the Irish negotiations, and it was reported the Prime Minister would confer with the sovereign today, possibly before a note to the Irish re publicans was finally drafted.
