LONDON, June 22.-To-day's events
in Ireland included daring daylight
attack in the heart of Dublin by men
armed with revolvers and two bombs
upon Assistant Inspector General Rob-
erts of the Royal Irish Constabulary,
fresh outbreak at dawn of fighting
between loyalists and Sim Feiners in
Londonderry and the approach of
crisis in the railway strike situation.
Yet even with the country ahame
north and coutil with guerrilla warfare
there is hope, slight but still held out
by those who know, that revolution
will not develop out of the present
scattered carnage.
Of the days developments the indus
trial warfare threatened by the rail-
waymen is byfar the most serious, be-
cause a nationwide rail strike could
only conceivably be met by declara-
tion of martial law.
Refuse to Carry Troops
The railwaymen maintain their re-
fusal to carry police troops. The gov
ernment still holds IT'S hand, for the
Cabinet realizes the graveness of a de-
cision which would put Ireland under
military rule.
Aside from Londonderry, where the
initiative in the factlonal warfare has
been assumed by the Ulster Loyalists
too day they stood Sim Feiner
chO ~ {n Aoot n
then refused to permit an ambulance
to carry away the man while he was
in dying condition--thc Sim Feiners
hold the whip hand in the situation.
Apparently they have not deviated from
the policy of embarrassing the govern
ment at every turn and creating
chaotic conditions on every hand. But
they still do not want showdown
fight with the British military-"at a
cost of 100000 lives and five years
warfare" as Lloyd George put it, and
so they merely continue harass;ng the
government and police throughout the
England's patience has been reached,
and leave the initiation of civil war to
the government.
Fired On From Ambush
The attack on Roberts was one of the
most sensational in years. Armed men
lay hidden under the arches Of the rail-
way bridge near the courthouse until
an automobile containing Roberts and
three police constables passed. A vol
ley of revolver fire raked the air and
two bombs which missed their mark
were hurled by the assalants at the
speeding car
The driver of the automobile was
badly wounded in both legs, but main
tanned control of his machine until at
breakneck speed he had swept out of
range. There he collapsed as he
brought the car safely to halt Rob-
erts was wounded in the head. The
constables in the car tried to protect
the body of their chief with their own
and they attempted to return the fire
Of the assailants, but, so far as is
known, all the latter escaped uninjured.

Assailed in Commons
In the House of Commons to-day
there were vigorous attacks on the
policy in Ireland, while from the Labor
party conference at Scarborough, came
a bitter attack on the government for
its stand. This contradiction is typi-
cal of the situation nowadays and
shows the difficulty o. presenting
events in their true dress and color.
Whereas. on one side one hears only
of Sim Fein outrages and the govern
ment is condemned for not taking
drastic action, there is a large body
of opinion which holds that the situa-
tion is the result of the governments
failure to recognize Irish affairs in
their true light and conciliate the Irish
people.

one more death, bringing the total list
to eight. Troops were protecting
some of the principal streets this after
noon, but enough firing was going on
to terrify the citizens and keep them

usual activities.
The magistrates at meeting this
afternoon decided to send a second
urgent request to Dublin Castle for
military reinforcemcnts and the in
sttution of martial law. Telegrams
also were sent to the Attorney General
urging the necessity of the immediate
dispatch of troops.
General suffering is expected if de-
