there was feeling of relief in govern
mont 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 government Off.
cials declared that the attempts OF tho
Natienalists to organize an opposition
had resulted in failure and that the OK
tent of the lOyalist demonstration was
surprising. These declarations were
hardly uttered before the telegraph
brought accounts of rioting in various
parts of Cork. AS the open carriage

noon detectives arrested a rowdy who
