ADMISSION: o S A TELEGRAMS. ST. CROIX STATION. London, March 2lst.—Reports from Queenstown thus far give the impres- sion that the attack on the British sol- aiers was carried out in a fanatical way by a few irresponsibles. The Free State army chiefs immediately began an in- vestigation and a wide search is being made for the perpetrators. Dublin, March 22nd.- General Liam Tobin, leader of the mutinous army offi- cers, this afternoon issued a statement on behalf of the mutineers saying:'* We disclaim any responsibility for the cow- ardly acts in Queenstuown.’”” The reason for the attack is still not clear. There has been great uniest, however, since the decision of the Government a week ago to reduce the army from 50,000 to 18,000 and to demobilize nearly 1,000 offi- cers. London, March 22nd.—1he latest re- ports to the War C(ffice frem Queens- town received today give the casualties in yvesterday’s shooting us folicws: Cre officer seriously wounded. Ore private dead of wounds. eight dargerously wourded and fiva civihans including two women wounded London, March 23rd.—There was ro change today in the situation growire out of the strike yesterday of the en - plovees of the tramway and omnibus services. Neither side to the dispuie evinced any disposition to give in. A court of inquiry sat both this morning and this afternoon, taking evidence with regard to the situation. It is expeeted the court will present its report to the Labour Ministry within a few days. A feature of today’s session of the court was the general admiss‘on that there was need for scme central control of communication and transportation facili- ties, in order to remedy the existing con - petition and overlapping. ltis beleived that the court’s rejort may recommend that the Governnent iniroduce legisla- tion in Parliament to attain this object. Tondon, March 23rd.— There has been some question as to just wh t the Prime Minister sa:d in his House of Commors statement on Tuesday, reg:rdirg the re- lation of the Singapore project to the Washingtorn Naval Agreement. Exam- nation of the full iext of the staten ent, however, shows that the Premier clex - ly held that the development Jof the n:- val base would not be inconsistent wiin the “Vashington Poct. The Governm nt's abandonment of the scheme was not on the score that it conflicted with the Washington I'reaty, but because the Gon- ernmert stood tor intzrnational concilia- tion and hoped for counditions which would make comprehensive armament limitation possible and considered that to proceed with the project would exercise a most detrimeuntal effect on Great Brit- ain’sgeneral foreign poliey. Washington, March 22nd.--The Naval Appropriation Biil, earrying $272,000,000, was passed by the House Paris, Mareh 22nd. -General George Nivelle, who commanded the {French troops at Verdun duringgthe European War, is dead.
