Dublin.-"The rebel leaders have
surrendered Internationally"
This is the message received from
an authentic source within the Sack
vile street area. The Informal
ton is that, with the exception Of
struggling snipers from houses and
warehouses, the instruction, as far
as Dublin is concerned, is practically
at an end.
Jim Connolly, the chief leader, has
been shot.
This sudden and dramatic end fol-
lowed defeats in the various parts Of
the city for the rebels. Their main
stronghold, the post office, was fired
by the insurgents themselves with
paraffine oil. The building burned
fiercely and then the rebels retired
to the Coliseum Music Hall, at the top
Of Sackville street. Later, finding
themselves hemmed in by the troops,
they surrendered in a body-those
who had not been shot by the mill
tary.
The Metropole Hotel is burned to
the ground and both sides of Sack
vile street are practically burned
out. Talbot street is practically
destroyed, together with Eden quay.
The troops have been continually
closing in on the houses. Orders have
been issued to cease firing. -Four
hundred rebels have surrendered in
the southern part Of the city.
