s1,5oo,ooo FIRE IN PRINCIPAL
 THORoUGHFARE OF CORK

Cork, Nov. 30.-(By The A. Po-The odor of charred or smouldering wood pervades Cork and Patrick street, the principal thoroughfare of the city, is un- slightly with the bulging debris of fire wrecked houses
 Since Friday the sky nightly has been lighted by the glare of incendiary fires, which have destroyed dozen large bus mess buildings, causing losses estimated at about s1,5OO,OoO.
 Early today a second unsuccessful at- tempt was made to burn the city hall, which recently was badly damaged by a bomb explosion and fire No less than live Sim Fein clubs have been destroy ed.
 The present series of confiagrations followed warnings that reprisals would take place unless three army officers kidnapped recently from train at Wa terfall were returned unharmed. A re- port, which has not been confirmed, is to the effect that the bodies of all three of the officers were found in a field near Waterfall
 The fire brigade when responding to an alarm Sunday night was fired upon by parties of masked uniformed men Consequently the firemen fear to ven- ture forth, and when the Thomas Ashe Slnn Fein club was set on fire today they refused to leave their quarters until the protection of two lorries load. ed with soldiers was afforded them.
 The fires usually have been started with incendiary bombs and petrol in buildings the owners or occupants of which are believed to be Sim Feiners Not infrequently the fires have spread te adjoining property.
 Explosions and fusii.ades from rifles and revolvers almost invariably furnish terrifying oversurn and accompani- ulent to the con1a gration
 As a result of these fearful nightly or. deals Cork has become a city of nerves Business is almost at a standstill and many persons are afraid to venture abroad even in daylight Large nun. bers of the townsfolk have. left Cork for less troubled districts
 One effect of the prolonged strain, ac- cording to physicians, has been a sharr increase in the number of patients ad- mitted to insane asylums and also an increase in heart disease It also has resulted in the development of curious form of goitre among adults, especially women, and St. Vitus' dance among the children, the physicians declare. The newspaper publishers frankly say tAat they are intirnidated to such an ex. tent that they are now printing tele- graphic accounts containing the barest and most perfunctory stories of the troublous times. The panic of the peo- pie is so intense that they are reluct ant to discuss the happenings, and when they can be induced to talk, they speak in whispers.
