Belfast, ireland, Feb. 14.-(By
the Associated Press. .)-Forty-tw
of the kidnapped Mister Unionists,
it was stated today, have requested
Premier Craig of Ulster to liberate
| Immediately the Monaghan football
players held prisoner in Ulster, the
Unionists declaring they themselves
would be held captive until the
football prisoners were released.
Belfast, Ireland, Feb. 14.-(By
the Associated Press.) - Snipers
continued their grim work in the
disturbed sections of Belfast this
morning and by midday the death
roll since Saturday had increased
to Is by the deaths of two men
/ who were victims to flying bullets
in the streets during the noon hour.
! The number OF wounded at the
same hour had reached the total of
approximately fifty
I In the main thoroughfare of the
city business proceeded apparently
as usual, but in the storm centers
/ the sniping was frequent and dan
! gerous.
/ Police Patrol City.
! Belfast, Ireland, Feb. 14.-Wil-
! liam Waring, a caretaker of Orange
hall, in Clifton street. was shot in
! the neck today and is in a serious
! condition.
/ A truckman leading a horse
! through Clifton street, near the
! scene of the Waring shooting, was
: stopped by a man, who produced a
revolver and fired point blank at
I the truck driver, wounding him in
the abdomen. He is in a critical
condition.
! The police today were again pa
| trolling the troubled districts of
the city in armored cars to fore
stall any serious outbreaks.
The majority of the shops along
North Queen street have been
iobliged to suspend business.
I Situation Serious.
London, Feb. 14.-(By the Asso-
ciated Press)-Michael Collins dra-
matte disclosure of an alleged re-
publican plot to overthrow the pro-
visional government, the sudden
and unexplained suspension of the
British military evacuation, and the
dangerous tension between the
AOI III anu SOuIls nave COIlDlAcu W
produce a serious situation in Ire
| lana.
The outcome no one here ven
lures to forecast more definitely
than by speculating on the dreaded
possibilities, but dispatches show
that the position on the frontier is
not far removed from a state of
war. Indeed, the prospect of civil
war is being seriously discussed in
Belfast and elsewhere in the north.
The dispatches sent by Belfast
| correspondents of the London news
papers represent the temper of the
/ Ulstermen as being such that, un-
less the kidnapped unionists are
speedily released, there will GER
tainly follow an explosion which
may lead to war.
Concerning the supposed plot
against the provisional government
nothing is known here beyond what
Mr. Collins revealed in his cable
correspondence with Thomas Lyons,
secretary of the American Asso-
citation for Recognition of the Irish
Republic, and the Dublin CORE
spondents refrain from even spec
ulating on it.
