RIOTERS
Escape From Dublin BY Being Placed
in coffins and Carried To
Graveyards.

London. May 2l.--In the first excite.
ment of the roundup by the militar,
authorities of the participants in Tho
Dublin uprisings after tile leaders te-
gan TO surrender, number of Sinn Fein.
ers escaped in collins. according TO a
report that has reached here through
the Sim Feln underground railrcad. =
The escapes are said 10 have peen fa-
cilitated by the momentary relaxation
of the unusual rules concerning death
and burial certificates.
The method was complete. The sup
posed corpse would be placed in a
hearse and followed by few friends
to the burial ground. After the services
at the grave the priest would be called
away and engaged in conversation,
thus giving the grave diggers an OPP
portunity to surround the coffin and
lift up the corpse"
The released man was able to walk
to secluded end OF the graveyard and
thus to liberty.

in Lagrange to-day. He is accompanied
by his son, who is the only member OF
his family living. the others having

OF Persia by the Turks last year.
AT that time Rev. Sarmast was in
this country studying for missionary
work at home. When the trouble began
he took steps to locate his family, which
consisted OF ii members, but week af-
ter week passed and he could hear no
word from them
He finally appealed to Rev, w. S.
Maxwell, who is Treasurer of the Per-
sian Mission Board. Rev. Maxwell took
the case up with the United States
Consul in Persia, through Secretary
lansing, and after much correspon-
ence the one surviving member of the
family was located, and money was
sent for his return.
Fifteen thousand persons were con-
fined in a compound which covered
about seven acres. and were not per-
mitted to leave for any purpose. The
boy, who is about Is years old, reports
that some were shot. some starved to
death and others died OF fever.
They dug great trenches inside the
inclosure in which to bury their detd.
and when they We're filled with bodies
they dug others and covered the al
ready filled trenches with the dirt tn
ken from the new ones.
