London, Nov. 22nd.-A scene occurred
in the House of Commons this afternoon
during the period of questions regard
ing the situation in Ireland. Mr..
Deylin. Nationalist, and a Unionist mem
Der came to blows, The sitting was
SUSPENDED. The alteration arose after
Mr., LLOYD George had addressed the
House briefly on the subject, being fol
lowed by Mr.. DevIin. The premier when
he rose said he shared with the speaker
who had preceded him in the horror all
felt at the cold blooded murder of unarm-
ed British, officers. The Government,
continued Mr. Lloyd George, had resolv-
ed to suppress murder and conspiracy in
Ireland. 1t was realized by ali that to
SUPPRESS such carefully organized highly
subsidized plots would take time, but the
Govt was convinced chat, despite recent
happenings, the Irish authorities were
succeeding in breaking up the gangs OF
assassins. The Premier said. however,
that should experience show that the
Dowers possessed by the Irish Govt. had
proved insufficient for that purpose. the
Govt. would have no hesitation in asking
Parliament for such further authority as
MIGHT be necessary TO achieve that end.
Mr.. Devlin rose and asked why It was
that when Sir Hamar Green wood, the
Chief Secretary for Ireland, was asked q
mlestion he recited the horrible occurrence
which happened yesterday. and yet said
nothing about the appearance OF q mill
tarv force at the football match. lie was
interrupted with loud cries OF sat down

and continued, why has the House
not been made acquainted with a re-
recital of these events OF the entry OF
the military into the football field, and
the ndiscriminate shooting or ten peo-
pie. Sir Ha ar replied emphatically
that he had been asked nothing about
that question, bnt that he was prepar-
ed to answer. Mr.. Devlin agalr~arose,
amidst angry cries of sit dow% and
was ~endeavouring to speak when a mem
Der below him endeavoured to pull HIM
down. Mr.. Devlin lunged forward
fereely in an effort to shake o. the hold
of he member and the latter rising to
his feet the two closed with each
other. Members anne forward to Sc
parate the pair, but despite these efforts
the two members struggled, Mr. Dev-
lin losing his coat in the crush. Al
ter a minute or two the pair were fore
ed into seats by friends, and the speak
err suspended the sitting. Upon resump-
ton. Major John Nelson, c~oaiition-unl-
onist member for the Gainsborough Di-
vision of Lincolnshire, who was Mr.:
DevliD's opponent, rose and apoioglzed
to Mr.. Devlin. to the speaker and to.
the House, saying he was afraid ne al,
lowed himself to be provoked and mao
forgotten himself. Mr.. Devlin accepted
the apology apd assured Major Molsen
that in this or any other matter that
affected him in the House. he had no
personal feeling. His complaint was
against the growing practice OF members
taking out of the speakers hands the
question of order IN relation to questions.
The question he wished to ask was why
the Chief Secretary for Ireland had not
lecited all the Incidents which occurred
in Dublinaon Sunday. instead OF giving a
part Of the story. The minister mas not
told of the murder of ten or fifteen clyl-,
lians, Mr.. Devlin pointed out. Sir Ha-
mar said that although ne had not e
asked the question, he was willing to re,
DIV and said: THE authorities have
reason to believe that Sim Fein gunner
came to Dublin on Sunday, under the
guise of attending The match, in order to
carry out the murders. Consequently a
mixed force surrounded the grounds.
This force was fired on and in hrIag back,
killed ten and wounded others. Sir
Hamar also gave details of the finding OF
revolvers and the crushing TO death OF a
man and a woman, which latter ne re-
GREETED. The statement made by the
Secretary for Ireland earlier In the SEES
sion, in reply TO a question regarding yes,
terday's events, was that ne hoped
that this series of cold-blooded, careful
ly planned atrocities would bring vividly
before the House and the public the cru
