MacSwiney Seized
For Presiding at
Sim Fein Court

New York, Sept. 10.-An official
record OF the case OF Lord Mayor
! MacSwiney just received in the Uni
ted States from Dali Eireann, the
Irish parliament, indicates that Mac
Swiney was arrested because he was
presiding at Sim Fein court. but
! the British government could not try
him on that charge because n large
English insurance company was one
Of the litigants.
The Dali Eireann record also gives
the history Of MacSwiney and the
English administration in Ireland. 1t
shows that his life there was prac-
ttca1ly succession of arrests and
deportations.
ION Aug. 10, 1920, he (MacSwi-
ney)," reads the Dali Eireann COM
munication, was arrested by the
British military while presiding over
an arbitration court in the city hall
at Cork. On Aug. 16, having been
four days without food. he was tried
before a court t-martial OF British
army officers.
HE was not charged with presid-
ing over the republican court, al
tho 1T was for that offense he was
arrested. This charge was not made
against him because, had it been,
representatives of an important Eng
lish insurance company. who We're
among the litigants at the court In
question, would also have had to be
arrested and court -martialed."
The record of MacSwiney and the
English government is given as fol-
lows:
"MacSwiney was arrested in May.
1916. He was deported without trial
or charge to Wakefield prison, Eng
land. He was released without ex-
