Donegal. northwest of London

London, April 15.--(By the Asso-
ciated Press.) - Developments in
Ireland over Sunday are anxious
ly awaited here, in view of the Re
publicans' seizure of the Four
Courts in Dublin and Arthur Grit
fith's determination to hold his pro-
treaty meeting in Sligo tomorrow
over the decree of the local Irish
Republican commander.
The situation is described as very
serious by the morning newspa-
pers. General disappointment is
expressed that the peace confer
ence between representative OF
the Free Staters and Republicans
adjourned without any sign OF
agreement, and this is commented
upon as a bad omen.
Many RumOrs AflOat.
1t will be surprise if Sunday
passes in Sligo without trouble
Mr.. Grif1th's last statement was
that he was determined to fulfill his
promise to speak there, and there
seems to be every reason to expect
that if he attempts the address, q
clash of the rival parties will re-
suit.
1t is reported that since the oc-
cupation of a number of public
buildings at Sligo by Republican
forces yesterday, Free State troops
have been gathering there in con-
siderable numbers. Many alarming
rumors are afioat, one being that
the Republicans have laid plans to
seize the heads of the provisional
Free State government.
