P.)—The first detailed account of the fall of Cork after desperate fighting between the na- tionalist, and irregular forces, was re- ceived today from the Associated Press correspondent at Cork who has been 1s0- iated there foo the past five days and who' sent his despatch by a courier ¢n a trawler.. The despatch says: “Feverish anxlety developed -.mong the townspeople and the irregulars who held the city when the surprise landing was made by the nationalist troops 'ast Tuesday. The streets were soon flled with excited people-and.ominous fears cf siege and shell fire began to circulate. Hasty preparations” of the irregulars continued until Thursday when it was announced they would make a stand in- side the city toward which small farties of the enemy forces were. advancing from Douglas. . . The first panic came when an attack ‘was miade on the quarters occupied by the ex-service men. Soon all thé bar- racks which had previously b2en occu- pied byt hé irregulars were set on fire by bombs which exploded- with deafen- ing reports, while ‘a steady rattle of rifle fire added to the nerveus terror of the people. Many left their homes 1o seek points of safety, and some sought vantagepoints from which to see the fighting. ¥ The stand of the irregulars did not last long and their units' soon began to break up and disperse. Their retreat commenced at 2 o'clock Thursday - afternoon. They removed some machinery from the railroad bridge 50- as to prevent its being used by the nationals. They also exploded several mines at the Parnell bridge but little damage was done. By late Thursday afternoon, all the irregulars had fled. Six hours later, the advance party of the natlonals marched into the city, receiving: an enthusiastic reception from the popu- lace. On Friday, a thousand more troops ar- rived. They were .welcomed by the Bishop of Cork and the authorities. The only resistance’ the nationals en- countered, was that immediately after their landing, when severe rifi= and re- Volver duels took place. A stiff engage- ment occurred in the Rochestown woods, ‘where the irregulars suffered severely. The nationals lost eight killed and fif- teen wounded. One eighteen pouna snut landed in the irregulars’ position and started the movement of retirement. Cork was captured without anotner shot. The food situation in Cork is now acute. The blowing ‘up of the railroad br'ld'es has severe dthe city’s contact with the outlying towns. Besides samsking - the machinery in the various newspaper offices, the irres- ulars wrecked the Central Teléphone ex- change. The telégraph instruments in the general postoffice, which have been under the controel of the irregulars since the war commenced, have been damaged extensively and will take a long time to repalr. The irregulars had placed a boom across the channel of the rlver, which they patrolled in motor launches. Later they sunk a dredger and &nother craft in the channel making the river impass- able, all these impediments have now been removed. The sudden departure of the irregu- lars after their vigorous occupation in five weeks, forced Cork to regard tne abrubtness of their withdrawal with joy. Everywhere the initials of the Irish re. publican army, I. R. A, were passed from mouth to mouth as signifying “1 ran away.” IRREGULAR TROOPS ARE ADVANCING ON DROGHEDA Drogheda, Ireland, Aug. 14 (By the A. P.)—The irregular troops who seized Dundalk have advanced scuth to within four miles of Drogheda. The nationals here are actively placing the town in a state of defense. Dundalk was only lightly held by the nationals. Among the killed in the fighting there was Captain Frank Byrne, a well known Free Stater and chairman of the rural eouncil. Details of the casualtles are stil lacking, but they wtre rather heavy. Twenty persons are known to have been wounded. Some repurts say forty, All ‘railway. telegraphic. and tele- phonic communication between Dundaik and Drogheéda 1s mterrupied. DROGHEDA TOWN HALL HELD BY THE NATIONALS Dublin, Aug. 14—(By .The A. P.)— The latest news received here concerning the situation at Drogheda is to the effect that the town hall is still held by the nationals, who have lifted the rails on the viaduct north of the town to prevent a train with .irregulars getting. through from Dundalk, where the irregulars are now in control. In Dundalk Queens hotel was destroyed and the Anne sfreet barracks blown up. The irregulars captured the workshop= of the Great Northern railway. At Kel- Iystown the irregulars Ieft the train to train to march on Drogheda. Reinforce- ments are being sent to the aid of tne nationals. DRUNKENNESS SURPRISES NEW HAVEN POLICE New Haven.

Nine offenders only were put to niea. and of these seven received fines or jall sentences. ' First offenders were re- leased. The police were unable to understan what caused the unexpected increase in drunkenness. One theory was that some- where liquor was“sold that had in it an unusual “kick” - Many of the offenders when taken in were in more or less fight- ing mood. It has been many months j since arcests were so many as recorded this last week end. 3 CUBA TO NEGOTIATE FOR 850,000,000 FOREIGN LOAN Havana, Aug. 14.—The Cuban congress | is to be asked to aporove of.a foraign loan of $50,000,000 and to sanction new taxes in order to assure the payment of federal obligations. An agreement to this end was reached tonizht at a con- ference between President Zayas, Major General E. H. Crowder, President Iard- ing's personal representative in Cuba, and a mixed legislative commission. B e _ NORYWCH, CONN..
