DENY STRIKE ABANDONED.
Dispatches D Say Irish Prisoners
Still Spurn Food.

NEW YORK, November Gable
dispatches received from Dublin and
London by the Irish republican envoy
in New York and by the Irish World
deny that the hunger strike has been
abandoned to any extent in Irish
JailS. Prisoners now are on their
sixteenth days strike. according to
the messages from officials of the
Irish Republic, who allege that the
Irish Free State is spreading false
statements to break down the morale
of the hunger strikers.
Statements that Austin Stack was
forty-eight hours late in starting the
strike are branded as an absolute
fabrication in message received
from Acting President Ruttledge of
the Irish Republic.
stack actually has led the strike
as he did in Belfast six years ago."
ne says. THE allegation that
pastilles and bread were found on
the prisoners is a pure invention of
the same type as was used against
Terence MacSwiney. The truth is
that no parcels whatever have been
allowed to come into the jails for
a month"
Despite the cruel treatment of prfs-
oners, their morale is magnificent and
there is no thought whatever of
abandoning the strike. says a cable

LONDON, November 1.-Once more
public opinion has demonstrated that
1t governs England. Because SArmis-
tice day this year falls on Sunday,
the government decreed that the out
door religious services at the ceno-
taph, held for the last three years,
would be Cancelled. Heretofore these
services occurred at IL. o'clock, but
that is the tlme-honored hour for
the Church of England service, and
the cabinet concluded that a religious
observance in Westminster Abbey,
nearby, should replace the cenotaph
commemoratton.
Thereupon came an outburst of pro-
test in all the newspapers. the edi-
tors of which were deluged with
thousands of letters from their read
ers. Finally. the king invited Pre-
mier Baldwin and Foreign Secretary
Curzon to have luncheon with him at
buckingham Palace to discuss the
situation. They decided that a serv-
ice should be held at the cenotaph
preliminary to the Westminster Abb
bey service.

DUBLIN, November 1.-An explana-
tion of the origin of allegations of
the i'll treatment Of prisoners was
made yesterday before the dali by
Richard Mulcahy, minister of defense.
who declared the charges were part
of a general campaign of propaganda
based on necessary disciplinary meas
ures.
The prisoners in Mountioy prison
had gradually built up a military
censorship, he said, which prevented
individual prisoners who desired to
sign a guarantee which would obtain
their release from getting in touch
with the prison governor. He charged
that when diciplinary action was
taken the prisoners mutinied and
assailed the police with iron bolts,
necessitating the calling in of the
military, who fired warning shots over
the prisoners heads. When the pris-
oners refused to leave their cells to
go to the exercise grounds they were

either dragged out or had the fire
hose turned on them.
After being. forced out to the
grounds, Mulcahy said, they set fire
to the furniture and as a result were
left outside all night, the weather be-
ing mild. The hose was also
turned on the more aggressive lead
ers in the yard. The hunger strike
was inaugurated, he added, when
prisoners were discovered at work on
an underground tunnel, Of which
seventy yards had already been COM
pleted' and their labors stopped.
