Dublin, Sept. 3.-Immense crowds
are gathering in the streets, particular
ly in the vicinity of Dublin castle.
Excitement is increasing rapidly.
Earl Spencer on leaving Vice Regal
lodge under escort was loudly
cheered. a number of dismissed con-
stables, who left the castle yard shortly
afterwards, also received a tremendous
ovation. All of the police now struck,
except the officers and members of the
detective force. The latter number
was only two hundred. Four hundred
men have been sworn in here as special
constables. At ahastily summoned meet
ing this afternoon, strong anti
government speeches were delivered.
Lord Mayor declared his intention to
issue a proclamation, calling upon the
citizens to exercise proper care to pre-
VEN riot and disorder, because of the
small available police force.
Mounted police and the sc" division
have taken no part in the strike up to
the present. At a meeting of corporation
this evening, Lord Mayor submitted a
series of resolutions suggested by the
unpleasant state Of affairs, which were
carried.
The impression prevails among the
police that they acted hastily, and it is
rumored that a majority of dismissed
men will go to America.
Hundreds of people including Mr..
Goddard, of property defence, Assis-
taut Derdgeon, solicitor for emergency
committee, and many Orangemen pre-
sented themselves to be sworn in as
special cOnstables for q week, and the
~constabulary ut country stations have
been requested by telegraph to come to
Dublin.
Large bodies of infantry and cavalry
paraded the city during the night.
Large detachment rifles arrived at
Klngstown from Dublin at noon to-day
and took possession Of the police bar
racks there. OF the city police force
numbering 1,l75. 240 members have
been dismissed and $40 have declined
for further duty.
Rioting broke out ON College street
at 2:30 O'Clock this evening. The moi
was very violent. Some of the police.
men who remained on duty in College
street station were brought in a body,
but obliged to retire before the mob.
Additional troops have been SEM to
the scene of the riot, as no police OF
special constables were in Dublin, and
the mob took complete possession.
At 1870 to night a mob on Bruins.
wick street threw stones Mt the troops,
and one man wounded. The magis,
trate read the riot act. The troops
charged and the mob fled. No further
casualties reported.
A bayonet charge has been made on
Jackville street, where soldiers were
hotly pressed and badly stoned. Troops
are stationed before the bank of Ire
land. Many of the constables re-
turned to duty at the Kelvin street po-
lice barracks.
The police offer, if the dismissed
men are reinstated, to waive all other
claims pending.
A commission has been appointed to
consider their grievances. The police
will hold Il mass meeting tonight to
discuss the answer which is expected
to this communication or as they term
it, 1.-The Ultimatum." The law officers
are of the opinion that services of
Orangemen may be accepted as special
constablss, but Of course, in their
capacity as citizens not as Orangemen.
Midnight: The city is in a most ex-
cited state. The military tonight
charged on the moi surrounding the
O'Connell statue and cleared the spot
Horse police are on duty at Jackville
aud are making frequent charges in
order to clear the side streets. There
is much stoning. Several persons have
been wounded and a number of arrests
were made.
