A recent official Turkish communication said the posjtion of the British at Kut-El-Amara was crit- | ical and that they were expecting to receive small supplies of food by aero- plane. An official statement-received yesterday from London showed that a last effort to send supplies to the gar- rison had failed. A ship laden with supplies had been sent up the Tigris. but it grounded about four miles east of the city. Less than a score of miles away, on the banks of the Tigris below the city is a relief army which for months has | been attempting to reach the beseiged | forces of Gen. Townshend. A few weeks ago several victories were an- nounced, and hope ran high in Eng-| land that the mission would succeed. | Of late, however, the Turks' resist-| ance has increased and, aided by floods, they have been able to hold the British in check. No official figures have been given out as to the number of troops which set forth from the Persian gulf in No- | vember of 1914 on the expedition | which has now ended in surrender. Unofficially the number has been es- timated as high as fifty thousand.

London, April 29, 10:17 a. m.—“The thing that'surprises me the most about the uprising in Dublin is the supply of munitions in the hands of the rebels,” said an Irishman who ar- rived in London this morning. He spent ten hours in Dublin on Tues- day and, departing that evening, re- mained until last night in Kingstown. “There is little doubt in the popu- lar mind that Germans have been landing arms from submarines for months,” he continued, “and it is said—though I don't believe it—that |a few Germans also landed and or- ganized. “I learned that the rebels made | prisoners of a large number of police- men and a few stray soldiers at the Royal Irish Constabulary depot and at Phoenix park. My walk through the cen‘er of the city on Tuesday afternoon w: very eventful, and I was glad finally to reach Kingstown. I was challenged many times by both rebel and loyal sentries. The rebels sentries are threatening but allowed me to pass after searching for arms. ‘Woman Shoots Down Guard. “I heard that the Countess Ma viez, the sister of an Irish haron was prominent in the Larkin strike and a leading figure in the present movement, shot dead a guard in front of Dublin Castle in an effort to cap- ture the castle. This effort proved abortive.” This informant, who is an engineer of the war department and a strong royalist, says a great majority of the people of Ireland are entirely without sysmpathy for the rebels, whom theyv regard as a small and irresponsible minority. Of his experiences in the city, the engineer said: “I reached a point opposite Shelbourne Hotel shortly aft o'clock on Tuesday afternoon.

The largest dry goods store in the city has been taken by the rebels. The store was fired on by the regulars, who used artillery.

The rebels occupied a bakery in Canal street, which I could not verify, that Alderman Kelly, a large tobacco deal- er and a member of the Sinn Fein, killed when the rebels were driven from his place. A report also was current that James Connolly, a Sinn Fein leader, had been killed. Flags of Irish Republic. “I heard from a man who was present that the troops, on taking Liberty hali after its destruction by shell fire, found secret tunnel through which the rebels escaped, taking all but a few of the wounded to the Amiens Street Railway station.
