Sinn Fein raids in Dublin upon post offices and other places for money, or attacks upon military, continue daily almost hourly, resulting in a reign of Sinn Feiners last night bombed two lorries carrying soldiers in Frederick Street. The soldiers saw the inStention and shot one man in the act of throwing a bomb and escaped the danger. The soldiers then firad a volley, killing two civilians and a youth. It is not yet known whether they were among the attackers. Several of the assailants were arrested.

The authorities appeal to the public *to bring pressure to bear upon Michael jCollins, Charles Burgess and Richard tMuleahey, who are responsible for the Dublin on the ground that fchey are futile in results and callous in fcheii disregard for the public safety.— Jhus.-N.Z.
