MARCH OF THE I.R.A.
DEMONSTRATION at DUBLIN,:
(United Press Association.—-By ElectricTelegra ph,—Copy right.)
LONDON, March 14
The “Daily Mail’s” Dublic correspondent reports as follows: —Four battalions of the Irish Republican Army, headed by Irish Pipers, and carrying their standards, which had been hidden for months, marched to College Green in Dublin. The battalions were received with greater cheers, accompanied by shouts of “Up the 1.R.A.!” then cheers were given the prisoners who were released last week. There was an amazing scene witnessed as the I.R.A. performed military evolutions before the delighted crowds. Their military work proved that the battalions had undergone many hours of secret drilling.
The police, whose duty, until last week, would have been to arrest the marchers had now been ordered to assist at the demonstration by controlling the crowd and regulating traffic. Another proscribed Society which has reappeared is the Cuniann Nam Ban, or the Women’s Republican .Organisation, consisting of several neatly uniformed girls whom the police gallantly helped through the crowd.
