Strike.
Considerable Excitement.

Dublin, Crowds are gathering
on the streets, particularly in the
vicinity of the Dublin castle. Ex-
element is increasing rapidly. Earl
Spencer, on leaving the vice-regal
lodge, under an escort, was loudly
cheered. A number of the dis
missed constables, who left tho cas-
tie yard shortly afterwards, received
a tremendous ovation. All the po-
lice have now struck except the
officers and members of the detec-
tiV force. The latter number only
1900. Four hundred men have been
sw0rn in here as specials. The con-
stables held meeting this after
noon, at which strong anti-govern-
ment speeches were delivered. The
lord mayor declared his intention to
issue the following proclamation
CAS- a misunderstanding between
the metropolitan police and govern
ment authorities has led to the with
drawal of a large number of
the police from the protection
Of the city, therefore my duty is to
impress upon every citizen anxiety
for the safety of the city-personal
and corporate; for the preservation
Of peace and order self control and
peaceful demeanOr were never more
necessary than now, and / rely upon
my fellow citizens to display these
Qualities. | am confident you will
join with me in maintaining order
and tranquility.
The mounted police and the G di-
vision are taking no part in the
strike at present.

this evening, the lord mayor sub
mitted a series Of resolutions eX-
pressing the anxiety of the council
at the difference existing between
the police and the executive; re-
GREETING that the harmonious rela-
tions prevailing between the police
and the municipal councils of Eng
land and Scotland do not exist IN
Dublin, and declaring that, i'll conSe-
Quence Of the corporation being I'M

they acted hastily. 1t is rumOred
