A man and his wife living near- by who went to the door of their house to learn the cause of the commotion were shot dead \by a vollcy of rifle fire which swept the street. CABINET MEETS Dublin, Jan, 11—(By the-Asso- cated Press)—Measures to be taken toward setting up of a new government in Ireland for carry- ing out the terms of the Anglo- Irish treaty were. considered by the cabinet of the Dail Eireann at a meeting today. One of the first moves, it is understood, will be the appointment of a commission to proceed to London and confer with the British government. It is regarded as likely that Dublin castie will be taken over from the English within the next few days. d The release of the political pris- Oners is expected in a day or two. An official statement regarding the new government's program was expected to be issued this af- ternoon. GRIFFITH TAKES PLACE Dublin, Jan. 11—(By the Asso. ciated Press) — Arthur Griffith, new president of the Dail Eireann, and his cabinet today assumed the places to which they were elected yesterday. On February 14, the Dail will reconvene to ratify formally the peace documént which it approved as the representative body of the Irish Republic. The possibility,of the proverbial “slip twixt the“cup and lip” was not ignored, and it was feared in some quarters that the republi- tans might use the interval in at- tempting to turn popular feeling to their side. 0 Meanwhile no forboding haunt- ed the mew Dail leaders.
