LONDON, April 25.-A new out
burst of fighting Is reported in the
Ballagh Ridge district Of Aughnacloy,
according to a Belfast dispatch to the
Star this afternoon.
The intensity of the firing forced
farmers to leave their homes. Rail-
way lines have been fired upon. The
special constabulary has been re-
enforced. The situation 10 reported
serious.
Brigadier General Adamson. COM
mandant Of Free State troops at Ath-
lone, seventy-five miles west OF Dub
lin, was held up and killed last night,
says q Central News dispatch from
Dublin.
A number of officers of mutineer
troops were arrested and taken to
Free State headquarters.
Dublin Soes Hope for Peace.
BY International News Service.
DUBLIN. April 25.-Irish people
today were more hopeful OF ultimate
peace between warning factions, fol-
lowing yesterdays general strike.
The only untoward events which
marred tho otherwise quiet strike
day were the reported seizure Of Ma
sonic Hall by mutineers and the MUIR
der Of Sergeant John Gum.
There were well-founded reports to-
day that the next few days will see
an agreement whereby military
methods by factions in tho Irish re-
publican army will be abandoned. 1t
is probable the Dali Eireann, at it's
meeting tomorrow. will consider the
situa ton.
The reported attempt Of Irish
workers to proclaim a workers re-
public was a flat failure, encourag-
ing provisional Free State leaders.
The unsuccessful attempt served to
indicate the baselessness Of reports
that Communists were strong In Ire
land.

Paris, Sept. 13-This has been the
year of the small-means American
tourist.
Heretofore "trip to Europe has
been luxury confined to the wealthy
and the nearly wealthy. 1t has been
which the entire family saved their
pennies for years beforehand
Heretofore. from another point or
view, Europeans have been used to

New Era in Touring.
That this season has marked +ba
setung In of a new era in European
touring is the belief of M. Junot.
PRESIDENT OF the "Consortium des
view.
Tourists this year are very nu-
aaf 1sss but they hey are not Of the rich
| appear to be for the most part Of
| classes who are not accustomed Il,
cross the Atlantic or the English
Among reasons for the change. M.
Junot cites the fact that the war
not only has given folk a taste for
travel, but the many former mem
bers Of the American and British ex-
ped1tionary forces brought over their
families and friends to show them set
lungs wherein they suffered or per-
formed heroic deeds
He points out also that the taste
for economy has been lost somewhere
In the shuttle Of present-day econom-
&c disturbances. Persons of moderate
means no longer care what they
spend, Or whether the future is pro-
vide ed for.
''France should profit by this new
o1der of things" urges NJ. Junot, "to
throw Off not only its exceptional
uonume nts of the past, but also its
pleasant a place to visit. It should
not cater entirely to the tourist who
~omes in 1otor car, but it should re-
gard the excursionist who arrives by
bicycle. It has enough palaces; it
should emphasize now it's modest
comfortable and clean hotels of a class
beneath
Would Simplify Fares.
The touring expert advises ezao
sin1p1i fication of railroad regulations,
so that foreigners may understand
exactly for what accomm odatio ps
they pay when they buy a ticket-and
! in this regard he takes a special dig
at the sleeping car contpanies-and
passports.
M. Junot complains bitterly that
because of the difference in exchange
rates most tourists do not stay long
enough in France to appreciate the
beauties of the country, but use Paris
only as a stopping-off place on the
way to Germany, Austria, Czacho-
Slova.kia and other low exchange ma.
