 Outbreak at Any Moment.


 Outbreak at Any Moment.
 BELFAST, Aug. 12.-The town has been quiet throughout the day, but the military patrols are still continued owing to the wide spread fear that disorder may be resumed if the soldiers withdrawn. The Catholic bishop of the diocese of which Belfast forms part has issu ed an order prohibiting Catho- lie processions. Five hundred additional police from the south of Ireland are on their way to Belfast and will be held in readiness to assist in putting down any disturbance that may arise on Sunday, the feast of the assumption, which is one of the chief holy days of the Catholic church. This precau- tion is taken in view of open threats by the Orangemen to prevent the celebration of the day and it is believed these threats will be carried out unless there is 8 sufficient force of police and military on hand to awe the Orangemen into submission.
 LONDONDERRY, Aug. 12.-Grand Master McChntock of the Grand Orange lodge in speech to the Orangemen of that town to-day ridiculed the allegation that the Orangemen had originated the riots in Belfast. He called attention to the fact that the Orangemen had used only the most primitive weapons in de- lending themselves and added: "When it is required their leaders will furnish the Or with better and more effective than brickbats."
