Dublin, June 29.-Rory O'Connor'.

day against the continuing attempt!
of the Free State troops to dislodg,

Firing was in progress all the fore
noon and there was an especial,
heavy burst of fire at eleven o'clock
Sniping operations were almost in.
cessant, with the casualties estimated
this morning at more than fifty
hourly increasing.
The replies from O'Connor's mer
to the firing on the Four Courts were
feeble. The garrison, which is be
lieved to number about $50 is said
however, to have unlimited supplies
of ammunition and penty oe provi
sions. ,-'
The prospect was that the, opera
tions at the Four Courts could in
creasingly assume the character ol
an investment. The building lend:
itself peculiarly to defensive pur
poses, and it is considered unlikely
that the Free State troops will al
least for the present, attempt to take
it by assault.
The most menacing feature Of the
situation from the provisional gov
ernment standpoint is the fact that
the insurgents are developing activi.
ties along guerrilla lines, PARTICULAR!
in the form of ambushes. Many OF
the insurgents wear no uniforms anc
the Free State soldiers, like the
British before the truce are exposed
to attack while traversing narrow
streets to and from their barracks. :,
The prevalence Of these tactics
make it seem improbable to the gov
ernment side that the situation
throughout the city will speedily be-
come. much better. at
Direct telegraphic communication
between Dublin and the North and
West of Ireland is practically ut
standstill. A number of wires be-
tween Dublin and London were cut
last night near Howth. %
In other parts of the country the
provisional government also has mil
itary affairs on it's hands. In Drog'

the same way as at the Four Court:

the irregulars is regarded as unusu

From other parts Of Ireland there
