Reception at Cork.
Cork, April 15.-The Ioyaiists did every
thing in their power to repeat the DuDlln
Wales triumph in Cork, but the Natl0nailstS
Missed all along the line of parade, and the
LOyalists thereat cheered with greater en-
thusiasln. The wonder is that there was
no breach of peace during the procession,
for il proceeded amid a continuous warfare
of words between the Loyalists
and NationalistS. 1t is thought
the presence Of the princess and
her ladyIike graciouSness to the people
along the streets was the element that con-
queled Irish gallantry. John Il. O'Connor,
Nationalist VI. p. for Tipperary, marched at
the head Of the procession OF National
leaguers. who closely followed the royal pro-
cession. and sang 'GOd save Ireland, ev-
erv time the loyal band started up God
Save the Queen or ''God Save the Prin
cess"
SPEAKS FEELINGLY.
Theprince, in his reply to the address of
the magistrate Of Cork, betrayed some feel
ing. He said he was glad to hear the express
sions OF loyalty to the British constitution
and to the queen which the address con
tanned. and hoped every person of influence
any occurrence that would interfere with
the object of this present tour through the
country or with the good Of Ireland. The
prince and princess soon after the cOnclu-
sion of the procession departed for Queens
town.

DAYS procession a Nationalist threw veg

roughs, but no injuries are reported. I'M
mediately after the procession was over

4 TERRIBLE NIGHT OF RIOT.
LONDON. April 15.-Up to this evening
there was a feeling Of relief i'll government
circles over the news from Cork, which all
tended to show that the visit Of the Prince of
Wales TO that city had passed off quietly
and had evoked an unexpected amount of
enthusiasm. Early in the evening the gov
almment officials had declared the attempts
Of the Nationalists 10 organize an opposi-
ton had resulted in failure and that the
extent of The lOyaiiSt demonstration was
surprising. These declarations were hardly
uttered before the telegraph brought re-
ports of riotiHg in different parts Of the city
and the reports are becoming
MORE ALARMING
every hour. AS the open carriage contain
iug the prince was crossing Parnell bridge,
some one in the crowd threw an onion at
his royal highness. The missile missed the
prince but hit one Of the fOOtman behind
the carriage and the crowd CheCred. During
the evening a detective arrested a rOwdy
who was throwing stones at the LoyalistS.
A moo speedily formed and attempted to
rescue the prisoner. The detective fired a
revolver. but, without hitting any one, sue
rceded in taking his prisoner to police
court. where he was promptly released on
bail furnished by the mayor of Cork. Early
in the evening the Nationalists held a meet
ing where iHtammatory speeches We're made
and the latest London newspapers contain
ing accounts of the royal progress

berng from fifty 20 q hundred men. Doors
and windows were smashed, flags and deco

blazing bouiircS. and many gun stores We're
broken INTO for the purpose of arming the
mob. Policemen when encountered singly
or in small squads were attacked and
beaten numerically with their own trun
cheonS. I'm many cases the police rallied
and charged desperately upon the mob. but
were invariably surrounded and repuIsed.
The police then reSorted to a free use of
their rcyolycrs and hayouets. 1t was
haud-to-hand fighting of
THE MOST DESPERATE SORT.
the police standing back To back receiving
and udictng terrible injuries. and Mt mid
night the streets were practically in the pos
session of the mob. The policemen who
remained uuiujured could not attempt 20 do
more than maintain their positions and fight
on the defensive. I'm addition to attacks
from the crowds i'm the streets the police
was exposed To a uuyderouS volley of stones
from windows. house tops and other points
Of vantage. The belief at midnight was
that the streets could not be cleared without
the use of artillery.
