London--A mutiny Of two compan.
les Of the Dorsetshire regiment sta
toned in Belfast is reported by the
Pail Mall Gazette.
The Pail Mall Gazette's message
says: when the men Of the First
battalion of the Dorsetshire regiment
were paraded in Belfast Saturday and
notified that they we're being trans
ferred elsewhere, they threw down
their arms. A sergeant stepped for
ward, saluted the officers and said:

tiny in the army, which would mean
