DUBLIN, Jan. 8—Charges of the ‘most sertous nature were brought out to-day at the opening of the trial of Father Dominic, former Chaplain to Lord Mayor MacSwiney, accused of statements “likely to cause disaffec- tion to His Majesty.” These occur in documents alleged to have been writ- ten by the priest or to have been i. hie possession, and were read before the field general court martial which is conducting the trial. The reading of the documents cnusad a sensation igp@he court room. ‘The charges are based on certain pasmges in a notebook and in a letter. Tt was declared in advance of the trial that the acoused pricst would maintain that the passages in the notebook were dictated to him by Lord Mayor MacSwiney in the presence of Brixton prison authori- ties for transmission to MacSwiney’s friends, and that the letter was a private communication to a friend in Angiand. : The reading of the documents con- stituted the first evidence submitted by the authorities at the trial. Father Dominic refused to recognize the court, but reseryed the right to cross- examine witnesses and to make a statement after the close of the pro- ceedings. The court entered a plea of not guilty for him. The letter on which the first charge @gainst Father Dominic is based alleged to have been written by him Nov. 26 to a friend. This letter, which was superscribed “Franciscan Capuchin Friary, Cork,” touches on the activities of the militant Sinn Feiners, execrates the Crown forces and refers to the recent tragic Sun- day in Dublin, when fourteen British court-martial officers were assassi- nated, as a “terrible but wonderful day.” 4 ‘The letter asserts that "the boys got the leaders of the B. and T. (Black and Tan) reprisals," and goes on to say that the Croke Park shoot- ing which followed the killing of the auxtfary officers “ordered as a reprisal by Macready, Tudor and the remnant of the Reprisal Com- mittee.” (Gen. Sir Nevil Macready fs Military Commander of the Black and Tans, or auxiliary forces.) ‘The letter also declared that was decided, too, to assassinate (Continued on Second Page.)
