SHOPS IN IRELAND
ReprisaIs for Death of Conn.,
rades Bring Demolition OF
Tuam Buildings.

LONDON, July 21.-Three British
soldiers were wounded in clash near
Macroom early today said dispatch
from Dublin. The troops were guard
ing a military lorry which was con-
veying provisions to the troops at
Cork when il was ambushed and at
tackled. The lorry was abandoned.
All public meetings and professions
have been forbidden at Cork as a
result OF recent f1ghting in that city.
Latest advices from Tuam, which
was wrecked in fighting early Tues
day, describe the scenes during the
attack as a perfect inferno.
Constables were said to have been
thrown into a frenzy of rage after
viewing the bodies of the two com
rades who had been shot form am
bush. The constables attacked the
town. The city hall was wrecked
and all the shops on the two main
streets were demolished. Tuan was
described by observers as the replica
Of French city on the old Western
front after a bombordment.
Advices from the scene SAID that
only the igtervention OF constables
who had been stationed in the district
for many years prevented younger
and inexperienced policemen from
shooting several Sim Feiners who had
been taken prisoner. The Sim
Feiners were lodged In jail, but were
later liberated by tho head constable.
The clergy Of County Galway have
appealed to Sir Nevil MacReady,
commander OF the British military
forces in ireland, to mete out justice
to the men who were responsible for
the shooting up OF the town.
Buildings housing workmen clubs
At Limerick and Foynes have been
burned.
A train bound from Sligo to Dublin
was held up and the malls rifed. The
railway strike In south Ireland has
been further complicated by the re-
fusal OF trainmen who are at work
upon the remaining trains to carry
policemen.

Federal control will have been fully
lifted from the railroads.
Rejection Of the award tentatively
and its submission to a referendum

strike issue to be included in their
vote.
