BELFAST RIOTS. LONDON, June 13
There has been week-end rioting in Belfast. It was the worst that the city has yet experienced. A mystery eurrounds the execution of the three civilians by alleged masqueraders.
It seems that armed parties in motor cars dragged the murdered men from their beds, and then' shot them near their homes. They next carried the bodies to some lonely fields outside the city.
The victims were all Catholics. It. is believed that their deaths are a reprisal for attacks on the police. PARTITION OF IRELAND. LONDON, June 13. * Sinn Fein has declared: that no cheques on the Ulster, Northern and Belfast Banks will he acceptable in Ireland under any circumstances. There is a boycott campaign being already felt severely. It affects • the Belfast industries that are relying on Irish trade. Many Ulster firms are now in a precarious position. PREMIERS ABSENCE. LONDON, June 14. If a majority of Dominions’ representatives agrees to attend the opening of the Ulster Parliament there will he another dull week. The" Imperial Conference probably will sit in the morning only.
