As fast as the military forces in

been practically impossible to check
the wave of arson and looting which
has made recent nights a terror.
Tram Cars Fired On.
The disorders which had grown

afternoon. Passengers in tram cars
were compelled to lie on the floors
to escape the hail of bullets poured

factions is extremely ugly.
At Dublin interest centered

Irish leaders were ostensibly put

reply to Lloyd George. Actually,
however, it is reported that the re-
ply is already on its way to London

1t is believed IN weIl-informed
quarters that the new reply will
contain the suggestion for such a

be publishe in Ireland first, but il
is predicted that the pail cabiue
will issue a statement as to its
position within a short time. An
atmosphere of optimism continues
in all government an Irish circles.
officials scout the possibility of
the reply containing a rupture of
the negotiations or the truce, but
they are not inclined to believe that
a roun table conference, which
would bring Sir James Craig, Ulster
premier, into the negotiations, will
result from the Dali cabinets action.
