Asked whether the rebels would be

patch dated Wednesday, stating that
The oReilly's body had been found IN

A provisional postal service has been
established in Dublin, where letters are
now arriving from the provinces and
from England, but no outgoing mail
service yet has been organized. 1t is
iTpossible 70 obtain postage stamps.
The roundup Of rebels still at large

are known 20 the police. House 70
house search is being made for those

are posted everywhere warning any
who harbor rebels that they will be liza
BE to arrest and punishment.
IN several parts Of Ireland the Sim
Fem organization did not take part IN
the outbreak, but, as they possess huge
Quantities Of arms and ammunition,
hey are being closely watched. Orders
we're issued to-day demanding that they
surrender all their arms. and. IN case
these bodies Of illegal semi-soldiery do
not comply with the order, very ehec-
tive steps are 10 be taken against them
ythe military authorities. who arc
aware that for two years past Ireland
mas been turned into gigantic ar
senal by persons who had no right 20
possess arms.
Il is difficult 10 obtain anything like
a certain estimate of the numbers OF
the Sim Feiners, but IL is believed
that $1,000 took part in the Dublin
fighting Il is said that 5000 have
been captured. Many succeeded in es-
Gaping by mingling with the population
when their chiefs surrendered, but It
will be difficult for them 20 leave Dub b.
lin. as everybody in this city must OBJ
tain a pass and undergo examination
