PARADE IS OFF
Disaffected Members of the Bel fast Police Force Decide Not
 10 Go Out.

Belfast, Aug 2.-The parade of the disaffected members of the local police force, which was scheduled to take place to-day, has been post poned if not altogether abandoned, apparently for the purpose of en- abling the government to be in po- sition to dismiss the entire police force of the city should such drastic action become necessary.
 The men remained defiant and de- clare they will not cease agitation until they have secured public in quiry into their alleged grievances. In an interview published in a. local newspaper Constable Barrett. who was dismissed from the force for agi- tation, declared that among the grievances of the men is the fact that under the present Dublin castle sys- tem" only those men who are willing to play the part of provocative agents can gain promotion. Barrett claims that the present agitation will put an end to the "abominable system of manufacturing crime"
 The situation is aggravated to-day by the threatened renewal of the coal lockers strike. These men recently resumed work, but to-day the strike leaders aver that the employers are not observing the compact made with the men.
 Tn the mantime the government is drafting all available policemen fin Londonderry county and at Donegal to towns close to Belfast, to be ready for any emergency. /The famous Black Watch regiment has been transferred from the curragh of Kill dare to Dublin and is there awaiting instructions to entrain north. A de- tachment of the Royal Artillery also is being held in readiness.

the outflow of cash from this center.
and the persistence of the premium on

the tenacity with which banking re-

evidence has been afforded of the en-

of the sixty-day limit imposed on the
