DUBLIN, March §.—Little effort is ‘being made by the British military authorities to apprehend the men who shot and killed Mayor Clancy and ¢x-Mayor O'Callaghan in their homes at Limerick. This empbasizes the be- Met that the men were murdered in reprisal for the kifling Sunday of Gen. Cumming, British Commandant al Cork. , WOUNDED BY ONE SHOT, Mrs. O'Callaghan Hurled to, i At 1 ofclock in the morning the men knocked at O'Callagban’s door, loudly doman“ing entry or that O'Callaghan come out. O'Callaghan, followed by his young . wife, came downstairs while the visitors woerg forcing the door. Three men rushed in, revolvers in their bands, and ordered him out- side, but he refused, being sturiily supported by his wife. The men at- Vempted to scine O'Callaghan, but his wife struggied with them Finally the was roughly setzed and huried to the ground, where she lay, stunned. Despite his resistance the men got hold of O'Callaghan and, pressing re- ‘yotvers to his breast, fred. He col- lapeed with three bullet wounds in the region of the heart. ‘The same or similarly dreased mon Tater called at the house of Mayor Clancy. Aroused from sleep by a loud xnocking, he came downstairs, closely followed by the Mayoress in her dressing gown. ‘The Mayoress fought them like a tigress, struggling in their arms and pushing them back, calling to the Mayor to escape. Refusing to leave his wife, he also fought the assailants - with bis bare fists. ‘Whenever they sought to put a re- volver against him the Mayoress threw herself between them, until finally one fired and ohe fell exhaust- ed with a bulfet in ber upper arm and soon lost consciousness, Having nelzed the Mayor, the men deliberate- ly fired several shots into bis breast, ‘and he fell dead. As far as can be learned the men proceeded to the house of O’Donohue ‘and shot him dead practically under the same circumstances as the other two killings. All three are Binn Fein- ers.
