DUBLIN. Dec. 1.-THE statement of Baron
Dowse, at the opening of the Connaught
assizes at Galway yesterday, showed that in
four months $50 indictable offenses had been
reported in Connaught. Of these only 39
persons had been rendered amenable, and
SIT persons against whom offenses had been
committed had, through terror or desire to
shield the offenders, refused to give evidence.
Lesser offenses are also numerous in Mayo.
There were 888 lesser and 236 indictable
offenses. Baron Dowse said If this state Of
affairs was allowed to continue, the conse-
quence would be immediate danger to Ire
land, and ultimate disgrace to the empire.
Even the reports by the police do not include
all the outrages committed and threatening
letters received.
The case concerning which Judge Fitz-
gerald received letter, threatening him he
would be shot in open court, was that Of the
wounding of Hsnlan, a care taker at New
Palace, Nov. IS. Hanlan identified his assai!-
ant, but the defense contested his ability to
identify man at night, and the jury ac-
quilted the prisoner.
IRELAND AND ITS AFFAIRS.
LONDON, Dec. 12.-The Standard says
We understand the parliamentary pro-
gramme to be adopted at the meeting of
home rule members in Dublin, will include
resolution demanding from parliament the
removal of Chief Justice May from the
bench. The meeting probably will not de-
eide upon scheme for land reform, as Par
nell declares the onus of introducing such q
measure lies with the government.
Forster, chief secretary for Ireland has left
Dublin for London unexpectedly.
It is stated one battalion of Scots
guards will shortly proceed to Ireland.
A dispatch from Dublin says each day
brings fresh evidence that the country is
hurrying on by strides and bounds towards
revolution.
A dispatch from Castlebarre reports that
the steward has been shot at Knockmore.
The Times, in leading editorial, says:
"The gravity of the situation in Ireland in
creases daily and nobody can be surprised to
hear cabinet council has been summoned
to meet to day. We have reason to believe
that Forster has with the most earnest and
repeated remonstrance required his collea-
CUES thus to accelerate the meeting of the
council. All doubt in regard to the state of
the country has vanished in presence of the
charges of Justices Fitzgerald, Barry and
Baron Dowse. MIR. Forster knows the mean
ing of these charges. The worst is proved
to be substantially true"
BERLIN, Dec. 12.-The North German
Gazette crlticises the government measures
in Ireland and says: If the peace preserva-
tion act had not been allowed to lapse for
party reasons, it would have been more effec-
tive In suppressipg sedition than all the
governments military measures.
