battalions of troops would be sent TO
Belfast Immediately.

the British action to secure the re-
lease Of the unionist prisoners taken
in the recent raids. This statement
was supplementary to his declaration
before leaving London that in the
event Of failure of the British authori-
ties to secure the release of the kid
naped men he would carry out his
own plans.
1--WE have to consider the whole sit
uation carefully" he said.
Reports were received here TO-DAY
from the Ulster border that none OF
the captives would be freed before
next week.
These reports said the Ulster special
constables and the contingents Of the
irish republican army were watching
each other like hawks across the
Fermanagh- Monaghan line. Policing
today was so rigid that business was
suspended.
The border specials were halting
every passing vehicle at Newtown,
Butler and Rosslea, while few miles
away, at Clones. the republican army
was doing the same thing.
Shooting occurred in the North
Queen street area OF Belfast this
morning. Police reinforcsments were
sent to the scene.

COLLINS DEGREES
GENERAL AMNESTY
Urges All Citizens to Aid in
Buryine Wrongs ofpast.
Promises Protection.
By the Associa ted Press.

By the Associated Press.
DUBLIN, February 11.-Michael Col
lins. head of the Irish provisional gov
ernment, has issued the following decree
OF general amnesty:
"Now that a treaty OF peace has been
concluded between the peoples OF Ire
land and Great Britain. the provisional
government hereby DEGREES a general
amnesty with respect to all acts COM
mitted in the course Of the recent nos.
tilities The amnesty extends to all
members of the naval, military. police
and civil services of the British govern
ment, and to all other persons by whom
acts of hostility against the Irish people
whether in Ireland or elsewhere; dur
ing the last six years, and full pro-
lection Of the law will be Afforded sucn
persons against violence or injury OF
any kind.
''The provisional government appeals
to all citizens to respect this amnesty
In spirit and letter. In this, as in other
matters, we must not allow ourselves
to be outdone by our late enemies IN
seeking that the wrongs Of the past
may be buried in oblivion"
Prisoners' Release Near.
A rumor reached Dublin that the men
captured in Ulster had been taken to
from Dublin Castle and by members OF
the provisional government: failed to
confirm the rumors. but an official at the
castle said he presumed that if the re-
port was true 1t might mean that the
men were taken there preliminary to
their release.
The text of the Irish Free State
act of 1922, which Is now. before the
British parliament. is highly APP
proved among the supporters OF the
and Ireland 1t had been supposed
the bill would merely set up con-
stituent assembly. and Eamonn de
Valera already had given eiis reasons
for not joining such an assembly: out
the act sets up a legislature and an
exercise of all the powers within the
treaty's scope. The legislature will
have the power not only to deal with
the constitution, but with all other
business, and the only speculation
left Is what the second act, esta ollsn-
ing the free state, Will contain.
Ulster Presents Problem.
The main point of discussion now
concerns Ulster. Under the treaty
tion of the act to decide whether to
Join southern Ireland. and boundary
commission will follow listers re-
fusal to join.
The question is being DEBATED az
to whether the bill Is subject to rati-
fication or not. 1t Is argued on the
one hand that no ratification of the
treaty could be more complete than
the embodying of 1t in the schedule
of an act of parliament and giving
It force of law. On the other hand,
this bill does not formally constitute
the Free State, and it is argued that
Ulster cannot be asked within a
month to determine her attitude to-
ward a body that is not yet In ex-
istence. A prompt election is wei,
coined by the treaty supporters be-
cause they say that atter tnis NO
raason will remain for the continued
existence Of the dali eireann.
