FREE STATE TELLS - OF PRISON RIOTING Answers Charge of Cruelty, Says Prisoners = Caused Trouble by Attack. By the Associated Press, DUBLIN, November 1.—An explana- tion of the origin of allegations of ill treatment gf prisoners was v before the dafl by Ri Mulc: minister of defense, who declared the charges were part of a general campaign of propaganda ‘based on necessary disciplinary meas- ures. The prisoners in Mountjoy prison had gradually built up a military censorship, he said, which prevented individual prisoners who desired to sign a guarantee which would obtain | their release from getting in touch | & with the prison governor. He charged | pas that when diciplinary actlon | was | taken the prisoners mutinied and | assalled the police with iron bolts, | itating the calling in of the| . who fired warning shots over s’ hieads. When the pri either dragged out or had the fire hose turned on them. After being. forced out to the grounds, Mulcahy said, they set fire to the furniture and as a result were left outside all night, the weather be- Ing mild. The hose was also turned on the more aggressive lead- ers in the yard. The hunger strike was inaugurated, he added, when prisoners were discovered at work on an underground tunnel, of which seventy yards had already been com- pleted, and their labors stopped.

Heretofore ~thesc services occurred at 11_o'clogk, but that s the time-honored hour for the Church of England service, and the cabinet concluded that a relfgious observance in Westminster Abbey, nearby, should replace the cenotaph commemoration. Thereupon came an outburst of pro- test in all the nawspapers, the edi- tors of which were deluged with | thousands of letters from their Yead- | ers.
