Dalin, March 17 (By the A. P.)—The celebrations of St. Patrick’s day through- out southwest Ireiand were marked by several features denoting the change in the status of Ireland, The trooping of the Unlon Jack at Dublin oastle, which since 1800 had been an dmyressive cere- mony of the name day of Ireland’s pat- on ‘saint, today for the first time was onultted. Instead there was a trooping and the blessing of the republican ri-color at Martyoro Hall, which was transferred | the Irish republican army. There were present at the ceremony many members of the Irish general headquarters staff, including Richard Mulcaby, minister of { delense, and Owen O'Duffy, chief of staft of the Irish republican army. The greatest of enthusiasm preveiled. The singing of the “Soldiers Song" during he ceremony was a feature. The general use of the Gaelc lane guage in the churches and at volitical of the day. In Dublin the oniy meectings held were anti-treaty. The largest of these wass at Haroid's Cross, It was ad- dressed by Countess Markievicz, Erskine Cufiders and others. There were only ons in attendance, and among ere slgns of dissent from the <nts of the speakers. Aers, who predicted - that of the savage auxiliaries” for- merly in Ireland would be employed to and torture England’s subject races in Mesopotamia and Palestine, de- lared that during the treaty negotia- tions in London Winston Spencer Churchill, the imperial scoratary for the colonies, deslred to get the position of the navy séttled in advance by treaty because, Mr. Chilers said, “he didn't want to have to treat Ireland, in the event of war, by brute force, as Bel- glum was treated by Germany. The other speakers taunted Arthur Gri for prohibiting a convention of saying this was because afraid they would stand up for a republic.
