He has not kept his word. He refuses to allow the Lim- erick Brigade of the Irish Republican Army to occtipy vacated barracks in Limerick City because they would not take them over on behalf of the Pro- visional Government, but insisted upon maintaining their status as a part of the Irish Republican Army. “He drafted troops into the Repub- lican areas, namely Limerick and Kil- kenny, in the interests of the Free State Army. These areas were chosen because of their strategic strength. He officers these troops by men who will obey his instructions without ques- tioning whether such inStru@tions ate a subversion of the Republic or not. He seeks to insure that no matter how the coming Irish Republican Army convention decides, the Provisional Government will hold all areas for the Free State Party. “The Republic still lives to prevent this insidious attempt to suppress the Republic. Units of the Irish Republi - can Army have come in from Coun- ties Tipperary, Clare, Cork, Limerick, Waterford and Galway. “Do the citizens of Limerick under- stand that their local Irish Republican Army units are being placed in a false and humiliating light solely be- cause they stood for a principle? Do the Itish Republican Army men em- ployed by the Provisional Government to garrison the barracks in the city at present know for what purpose they are being used? Will they, who fought and suffered for the Republic, now take part in destroying it?’ Both the Irish Republican Army regulars and the insurgents were strengthening their strategic positions to-day. The regulars, in addition to the seven barracks previously occu- pied, took over the prison, As a counter move the Republican insur- gents occupied the County Infirmary, across the road, and also the Shannon Rowing Club, BELFAST, March 9.—There was considerable shooting in Belfast dur- ing the noon hour to-day. The only casualties Teported was a baby boy, who was shot in the thigh. $300,000 LIQUOR SEIZED ON SHIP OFF BROKLYN SHORE (Continued From First Page.) contained ‘six ‘bottles of a Baltimore brand of whiskey. Capt. Brown, whose address is 434 Street, Bath Beach, was taken to the Custom House and interrogated about his cargo when a demand for his manifest was unproductive. What the Victor's skipper told the authori- ties was this: That he had been en- gaged by a man called Charles Kelly of Brooklyn to go to the Bahamas and take on a cargo. The destination of the cargo, he explained, was “up Fast,” that was all he was told, he said. When the got to the Bahama@ he went on, a schooner came alongside and gut a cargo aboard the Victor. After that there was nothing to do but obey the orders to take it “to the Hast.” ie As the Vibtor is more than twenty years old she had a hard time com- ing northward, her skipper declared. ‘He had storms that ripped his satis and most of the gasoline was used trying to buck the head seas.

Yeh! But WhoAll For, I Rises to Ask Hits Wreath Carried by Negro Porter. More than a score of persons who were hurrying down Madison Ayel nue to work this morning received 2 “Good Luck" greeting which was intended for someone else, and which brought anything but joy to the heart of the Negro porter who was carrying the huge floral wreath which bore those cheerful words. The porter rounded the corner of East Forty+third Street, and the wind caught the emblem as an ocean zephyr catches a sail. The porter spun around several times, and the horseshoe spun to the pave- ments. Roses, carnations—all of green detached and soon the Avenue for two blocks resembled the choicest blooms the house—becamo AL den in spring- time. Each passerby picked up & flower and carried it along. When last seen, the porter was walking up Madison Avenue, mumbl~- ing something about ‘Good Lugk,”* carrying the wire skeleton of the wreath. hoping to get gasoline and have his sails repaired. And just then the Prohibition enforcement officers ap- peared, and there you are. Capt. Brown was taken later in the afternoon to the Federal Building for arraignment before a United States Commissioner on a charge of possess- tug liquor. The crowd about all afternoon waiting to see the contraband stuff taken off the slopp. It hoped the wind would be blowing off the’ cargo at least.
