MILITARY OFFICERS KILLED.

REPRISALS EXPECTED. Received 10.10 a.m. LONDON, Nov. 21. Ten or twelve officers or ex-officers living out of the barracks were shot dead in Dublin this morning. Two were killed at the Gresham Hotel, Captain Newberry was shot dead at his residence in Lower Bagot Street, and three were shot dead .in Morehampton Road.. Later advices state that eleven were killed,. including).. qaptains McLean, Fitzgerald and McCormick. Five,were wounded, including civilians. The fact that the police and military have begun raids throughout Dublin, holding up motor cars and motor cyclists, causes grave fears that this morning's murders will provoke serious reprisals to-night.
