IRELAND.
WILLIAM O'BRIEN'S CRITICISM. Received May 27, 10.50 p.m. London, May 27. At Dublin, Mr. William O'Brien, commenting on the Government's statement as to the evidence against the Sinn Feiners, said that since the Popish plots there had been nothing more disgraceful to English statecraft. Irish people would read Mr- Lloyd George's story with the same mingled indignation and contempt as they read the forged letters published by the authors ef Parnellism and the crime that a similar reaction as then occurred was sure to follow. The fact that the traitors were being punished by internment was a sufficient commentary upon the rubbish, showing it to be an attempt by foul means to break the anti-conscription movement. The German plot wouM turn out even grosser than the extension of the conscription to Ireland, ARREST OF AN AUSTRIAN. Received May 27, 8.30 pjn. London, May 27. A sensation was caused at the action of the Tipperary police detaining an Austrian subject, Mademoiselle Brans, secretary to Major Edwards, a racehorse owner.—-Press Assoc.
