4 SINN FEINERS FIGHT DESPERATELY FOR LIVES [Continued From First Fa#c.] still flying defiantly over the side of the little tower. Barricades Bombarded Another brief artillery demonstra tion was directed against the barri cades in Sackville street. Clouds of thick smoke soon rose around various prominent objects In that part of Dub lin as the shells burst, while between times the rattle of the machine guns seemed like a continuation of the re verberation of the heavy pieces. So closely guarded were the ap proaches to the lighting zone that it was impossible to gauge accurately what damage was done and attempts By correspondents to pass a long street leading toward the center of the city brought upon them a detachment of soldiers with weapons ready for use. The' troops had early in the rebellion learned lo distrust civilians, some of whom were found to be evidently in sympathy with the Sinn Feiners if not in league with them. Wearing khaki meant the same as a sentence to death. Kill Vnarmcil Soldiers When the revolt began at 1 o'clock Monday afternoon the soldiers walking about the city were as usual, unarmed and numbers of them paid the full l penalty without being able to defend ' themselves. Other governmental uniforms brought discomfort lor their wearers. The Dublin metropolitan police were exposed to somewhat similar treat ment to that accorded soldiers by the rebels and most of the policemen went to their homes and changed to civilian clothing. Postmen on duty at the general post olllre which was the first building seized by the Sinn I'einers and later became their were sent away and told to come back in a week for their wages which would be paid in Irish republican coinage. The rebels cut all the wires, destroyed the apparatus and seized all money. Kven Had Kntreituhlng Tools Everything except, failure seemed 1 to have been foreseen by the rebels who, when they started the revolt, ! were as well uniformed as were the i regular soldiers. Their clothing, arms j and equipment were good and they j were even provided with entrenching ! tools which they used when they; marched on St. Stephens Green. The ammunition supply of the i rebels appeared to be plentiful and | was used unsparingly. Some bullets! which entered the hotel where the correspondents assembled were cer-! talnly of German manufacture. Other weapons used by the rebels were 12- bore shotguns and cartridges tilled; with ugly leaden slugs. Flames Light City The battle was thickest to-day around an entire block of business houses in the Sackville street quarter. These cuildings had been occupied by the rebels at the start and breaches had been made in a party wall be- , ; ween the stores so that the men could retreat righting from one room to another in the event of the places be- | Ins stcrniea. To-night the Irish capital was brilliantly lighted by the flames from an Important central block of houses' a co lple of acres in extent. Frequent i explosion? occurred, followed by salvos ' of machine gun and rilie tire turned | on the rebels who were making their way from one building to another. i Bodies I.ying in streets No exact idea of the number of casualties was obtainable but man.v bodies were lying about the streets; nnburied. Houses contained many others. The authorities said the; troops had not suffered nearly as much as had the rebels whose strong holds were under fire at all times both day and night. German Submarines Are Believed to Have Landed Armies in Ireland By Associated Press London, April 29. Although tlu story of the early hours of the Dublin uprising has now been disclosed in I considerable detail, Kngland is still | without authentic information as to, the progress of later events. Normal j telegraph, telephone and mail services •with Ireland have not been restored | and the existing means of communica- i tion are subjected to such strict een-1 sorship that it is possible to obtain only fragmentary information, such news dispatches as came through this morning added little to the lnforma- i tion contained in last night's official j advices and stories of eye-witnesses. Casualties Mat Growing So far as official reports show the! situation in Dublin is gradually being brought under control. There seems, to be no doubt that the rebels still con trol various parts of Dublin and that street fighting continues with a length ening list of casualties. It is reported the casualty list already exceeds 100. Of the situation outside Dublin lit tle is known beyond the official adinis- j sion that the dissatisfaction has spread \ to various localities in the west and ' south of Ireland. Field Marshal ' French's statement of last night de-1 tscribed these disturbances as local in ( character and so far as has been re vealed by information which has pass ed the censorship they have not been : attended by heavy fighting. Snipers Pick Off Civilians Upwards of 100 persons have been; killed or injured thus far in Dublin, ! a correspondent at Belfast of the ( Evening News reports in a dispatch! filed last night. He says the rioters, | hidden in houses commanding impor- j tant street junctions or covered by j barricades in the streets, are keeping up a constant fusillade. The list ot casualties continues to lengthen. It j includes many civilians who. the cor respondent says, have been picked off j by Sinn Fein snipers for no other rea son than that they were believed to be loyal. The cordon of troops is being drawn | gradually but surely around the rebel ! strongholds. The authorities are car- | rying on their difficult task with the; greatest forbearance. Every effort is being made to avoid unnecessary • bloodshed and damage. Germans Landed Arms "The thing that surprises me the most about the uprising in Ireland is the Mipply or munitions in tlic hands <>r the rebels," said an Irishman who ar rived in l.oiidon this morning, lie ►pent ten hours in Dublin on Tuesday and, departing that evening, remained until last night In Kingstown. "There is little doubt in the popular mind fliat Germans have been landing arms from submarines for months," he continued, "and it is even said t hough I don't believe it—that a few Germans also landed and organized. "I learned that the rebels made prisoners of a large number of police men and a few stray soldiers at the itoyal Irish constabulary depot and at fhoenix Park. "My walk through the center of the city Tuesday afternoon was very event ful and 1 was glad finally to reach JKingstown. i was challenged many times by both rebel and loyal sentries. The rebel sentries were threatening but allowed me to pass after searching for arms. Countess Sltoois Guard "I heard that the Countess Markie l icz, the sister of an Irish baron, who was prominent in the Larkin strike and a leading figure In the present movement, shot dead a guard in front of Dublin Castle in an effort to cap ture the eastle.

James Larkin Leading Irish Uprising; Aided by Uniformed Countess Dublin. Tuesday. April 25 (By' Courier to Kingstown), via London. April 2S—Dublin now has been held up for twenty-four hours by a com bination of members of the Sinn Fein Society and followers of James Larkin, head ot' the Transport Workers' Union and well known as a strike leader. There has been the same violence in the city as marked the big street: c*r strike in 1913, the Associated Press, eyewitness of the disorders declared. This strike was headed by Larkin. but supplemented by the use of an armed ] force with military pretensions and the seizure of strategic points designed to give the disturbance the aspect of a revolution. Gas Supply Cut Off The trouble has gone on now for twenty-four hours and has completely dislocated the life of Dublin. No shops are open and no business is being transacted. Street cars have ceased to run and the gas supply has been cut off. Use of the telephone between the city and the suburbs has been for bidden by the military, and the run ning of trains to and from the coun try is very irregular. Monday, at midday, the Sinn Fein revolutionists were assembled as if for one of their usual parades. They were supposed to be going out for an Eus ttr Monday march. Some of the rank and file even imagined that this was their purpose. About COO of them, however, took; possession of the general post office in Sackville street, which at the time was attended by the usual small holiday 1 staff oi clerks. There the six hundred men remained all day and night and stiil hold forth. Telegraph and postal- communica tion, insofar, as it goes through this, the chief post office in Ireland, has censed Hoist Irish Republic Flag The raid was beyond the power of the police to deal with. Small de tachments of Lancers appeared on the scone, but after two or three of their horses had been shot and two or three of the men wounded they withdrew. Since then the Sinn Feins in the post oftiee have been left alone and they have hoisted the flag of the Irish Re public over the building. The Countess Marklevtcz, the sister of an Irish baron, in a volunteer uni form. was a prominent figure in the disturbance. She was one of the lead ! ing sympathizers with James Larkin I ill' the 1913 street car riots and her house was raided in January by the , police, who are said to have seized a printing press and type with which alleged pro-German literature was be j ing printed. Her husband is said to be a Polish nobleman. Much Ttille Firing There has been much rifle and re ; vclver firing, seemingly at nothing in j particular and several persons out | holiday-making have been killed or | injured. The wounded were removed I to St. Vincent's Hospital, on one side ; of St. Stephen's Green. In the Portobello road, over the ! canal which forms the boundary of j the city, the Sinn Feiners seized a ! corner public house. Here also holi j day-makers suffered from promiscu ous shooting. One platoon of the ! Royal Irish Rifles succeeded in dis ' lodging and taking prisoner these | Sinn Feiners. I During Monday officers and men in j khaki and also isolated Individuals were shot at in the streets. Some of I them are reported to have been killed j or wounded. College of Surgeons Seized | The Royal College of Surgeons, ; which faces St. Stephen's Green on the west, was seized by the Sinn Fein ers and their flag flown from it. It is impossible as yet to ascertain or even approximate the number of persons killed or injured, but there Is no doubt that the aggregation is con siderable. as the holiday crowds were kvrge and the shooting by the Sinn I Feiners was very wild and reckless. Redmond Sees Menace in Revolt to Free Ireland I London, April 29.—John Redmond, | leader of the Irish Nationalists in the | House of Commons, last night gave the following statement concerning I the uprising in Dublin: "My first feeling, of course, on hear ! ing of this insane move, was one of j horror, discouragement and ftlmost despair. I asked myself whether Ire- I land, as so often before-in her tragic I history, was to dash the cup of liberty ificm her lips—was the insanity of a small section of her people once again |to turn all her marvelous victories of j the last few years into irreparable I defeat and to send her rack, on the very eve of her final recognition as a free nation, into another long night of i slavery, incalculable suffering and | weary and uncertain struggling. For look at the Irish position to-1 | day. In the short space of forty years! Ireland has by a constitutional move-j j ment made an almost unbrokenly tri umphant march from pauperism and ■ slavery to prosperity and freedom, ■ill ' las won back the possession of Irish land; she has stayed emigration: she has succeeded in placing on the' statute books the greatest character! o. freedom ever offered her since the i days of Grattan. Is all this to be 1 1 lost ? Revolt Was Kindled in Phoenix Park, Scene of Ireland's Darkest Days By Associated Press I London. April 29. it was in • ! Phoenix Park, the scene oi some ofi Ireland's darkest days, that the first , spark of the Irish revolt was kindled, i says a Daily Mail dispatch from Dub-1 , lln. On Monday morning the so-called ; i Citizen army held a review In the park, paraded and marched with, leaded rifles and fixed bayonets. After ward they were addressed by their i leaders and marched in flambovant. well-ordered ranks for the return to Dublin, adds the Mail. Passing the Vice Regal Lodge in) silence, they entered the outskirts of tbe town where they met some of the troops of the Dublin garrison march ing in the opposite direction. Two j i! men In the first rank of the Citizen army leveled their rifles and fired' among the soldiers. Two officers and several men fell. The attackers Im ;, mediately flung up their arms but the I i soldiers replied, killing three Sinn 1 Feiners. Signal For Revolt This was the signal for a general \ i revolt and the news was carried like a flash to the heart of the city. A mes- \ i sage to the Royal military barracks! biought the first draft of soldiers. Owing to the fact that it was a holi day with races in progress, Dublin was . fairly empty. Desultory firing began in different ■ streets, obviously with the purpose of diverting the attention of the military , from the main objects of the rebels' .[attack —the post office, hotels in the • center of the city, the four courts, St. Stephens Green and Trinity College—, 1 all of which were soon in the hands • j of the rebels. Constant Fusillade of Shots by Rebels Keep J | Dublin Streets Deserted By Associated Press > | London, April 29.—A graphic story lot' the situation in Dublin, as told by I a clergyman who got away from the I i city by motor to Belfast, is printed I i in the Daily Telegraph to-day. II The clergyman said there was hardly i *!a soul to be seen In the streets of I j Dublin. The rebels had entrenched - | themselves in St. Stephens Green j over night and on Wednesday niorn :j ing were vblazing away with their f i ritles. He was unable to discover at i t what they were filing. All around St. - Stephens Green are the houses of - : gentry, judges and leading govern-! i mental officials, while at one corner | ■, of the green is the Shelburne Hotel, -i the occupants all of which are | virtually prisoners. At the head of ' Grafton street, Dublin's fashionable • shopping thoroughfare, the rebels had r erected strong barricades. Rows of 1; motorcars, commandeered in the | streets the previous day, were thrown | across the road, shutting off access •' to the green. II At Dublin Castle there were few - traces of Monday's struggle. The en ■ trance was barred up. It was here J that two of the earliest fatalities oc ' curred, the policeman on duty at the s j gate of the castle and the sentry ln - j side, both being shot dead. Shot At All In Uniforms 1 1 The offices of the Daily Express and the Evening Mail were early in the hands of the rebels, who utilized them as points of vantage for firing at every man seen In uniform. An es- I tablishment on the opposite sido of the street also was captured. To reach the city from Sf.

Sackville street was a scene of desolation, the sidewalks littered with glass, shops had been looted and their contents carried away in large quantities. Traveling by circuituous route, the clergyman left the city unmolested, and on the way to Belfast turned back a number of motors which were going to Dublin. SIXX FKIXERS Alt RESTED By Associated Press Cork. April 29.—A committee of Dublin Sinn Feiners arrived here by automobile Monday and held a secret conference with local leaders. Later the committee was arrested at Lim erick by the military before they had a chance to confer with the leaders there. Brave Little Irish Girl Runs Through Hail of Bullets to Aid Wounded By Associated Press Holyhead, via London, April 29. — Eye-witnesses arriving here state 'hat when they left Dublin Thursday night Sackville street was completely in the hands of the rebels and was blockaded with barbed wire entanglements. Hun dreds of visitors in the hotels were un able to get away. Looting of shops was in progress in many quarters and the horses were lying dead in the streets. A resident of London returning from Dublin praised the heroism of an Irish girl lfi years old who ran from her home like a deer in the face of a hail oi' snipers' bullets to rescue wounded soldiers. The informant said: "She grasped a wounded soldier un der the arms—a stranger to her, for he had just arrived from England— and dragged him to where others stood ready to carry him to a hospital. Then back she ran for another of the stricken soldiers. Her example inspired scores. She repeatedly led nurses and doctors from a hospital i almost in the of a rain of fire from buildings to places where the wounded lay. Loud cheers greeted ' her." Emphasizes Organization of Rebels and Efforts of Leaders to Stop Riots By Associated Press j London, April 29.—The Times pub lishes an account of an eye-witness of ! the Dublin uprising which emphasizes i the excellent organization of the rebels and the fairly successful efforts of the leaders to restrain rioting. This ac count says: "Civilians were not molested in the ! streets and much of the firing was of blank cartridges. There was an effort to show that the movement was strictly military in character and : directed only against the government, i not against the populace. There was ! a little looting, but only about ten or j twenty shops were entered. There was I no violence against private persons and as long as you did not wear a I uniform you were as safe walking in Dublin streets as in the streets of | London. "This shows a remarkable difference i from the Dublin riots two years ago, when it was not safe for anybody to walk in the streets for fear of violence. ■ During last Monday's and Tuesday's | trouble the populace could go where | they liked. There was barbed wire around the past office, but the senti | nels made no effort to prevent people i who wished to do so from crawling [ under the barriers. Seize Money "On the other hand, it was made clear that anybody in his Majesty's uniform would be shot at sight. "Another Illustration of the rebels' excellent organization was the fact that, although food was commandeered from a big hotel, it was paid for. Ac cordinpr to reports, the money came from the post office vaults, where, it i-s alleged, a large quantity of new par>or money was seized. We planned to rise simultaneously with our Dublin comrades, but some thing went wrong with the arrange ments,' said a leader of the Sinn Fein ers in Cork in an interview published here to-day. Prepared for Anything "'We.might have been in possession of the post office but for the fact that the military was there first. - added I the leader. 'Now T do not think we | will rise here, hut if thev come to de l mand our arms. w» shall shoot them. 1 When the news of the Dublin risinir trickled through here Mondav. we all retired to our armored barracks, i loaded our rifles, polished bayonets, 1 set in stores of provisions and pre pared for—-anything. I " 'The bishop of Cork and the lord mayor came to the barracks at mid night and demanded admission, which | was granted after considerable parley. They implored its to lay down our arms and not to resort io physical force. We refused absolutely. Sor rowfully and with bowed head, the bishop said: "Then I leave you to your 1 fate." We told him we did not fear | our fate, whereupon he departed.' OVERTHROW OF CARRANZA NEAR fContinued From First Page.] ence over the Villa hunt will take ! place to-day.

FOUR SOVEREIGN GOVERNMENTS ARE NOW TRANSITORY Rulers of Serbia, Albania, Montenegro and Belgium Without Palaces Correspondence of rtie Associated Press Tendon, April 25.—Four sovereign governments are Just now having a somewhat transitory existence. Serbia, Albania, Montenegro and Belgium, with! seats of government outside their own territory, living at private hotels much like traveling tourists, as transient guests owing to the ever-present pros pects of moving on through the exigen cies of war; and with that strati uo anomaly of complete government es tablishments with rulers, prime minis tors, cabinets, parliaments, and admin istrations, yet with no territory to ad- I minister. | Albania Is the latest to pack the gi>v i eminent archives in traveling cases, Kssad Pacha, the nominal ruler, stop | ping first at Durranzo, then Brindisi, I and going on to the Greek island of Corfu. The Serbian king, ministry and : administration was already at Corfu, : while members of the Skoptchina, or |parliament, have neen considering a ses ) slon at Nice, with Premier Paschitz j.ioining them there. This would not he far from the Montenegro temjwrary seat of government at Lyons, In cen tral France, although three of the Montenegro ministry still remain at ' Podgrltza, Montenegro, so that It Js not quite certain whether the governv went is in Lyons or Podgri 1 za. Bel-' gium's administration is much moi« j stable, but is also outside home ter ritory, at Havre, Krance, where the work goes on in an extensive hotel at a seafront suburb of the city. Premier Asquith recently told Par liament that about a billion dollars had been advanced to the Allies, and an other billion to tliem through the banks at the government's vequest. lie did not specify which Allies, but it. is un derstood that considerable of these largo sums has gone to keep up the smaller governments in a full state of national sovereignty, for the signifi cant reason that they would have a. voice as nations, and perhaps a vote, when the final councils e-ome over the I war. This help from British coCOM lias been most opportune to the goverm r ments separated from their countries, with the usual revenues cut off from customs and internal taxes, and the to bacco monopolies, postal, telegraph and other sources of income, in the hand* of the enemy. Without revenue, the expenses of these smaller governments have gone on steadily; they have kepi, up their armies, foreign ministers and consuls, as well as ministries, royal establishments, and as much of tile civil administration as circumstances would permit. t'p to Allies King Nicholas of Montenegro recent ly informed the Montenegrin consul general here that he had ordered the three ministers remaining in Monte negro not to undertake any govern ment business or negotiations under any circumstances, adding "deprived for the moment of his kingdom, like the kings of Belgium and Serbia, the kins of Montenegro pjaces the fate of his government In the hands of the great Allies." These orders to the ministers indicate that King Nicholas considers the seat of government to be with him. at Eyons, and did not back in Podgoritza. With the king are his prime minister, Miouchekovltch, and hi* family, Queen Milena, Princess Vera, Xenia and Mllltza, and the heir to the throne, Prince Danilo. One of the princess' daughter, Militza, married the Orand Duke Peter, of Russia, while an other, Anastasie, who is not with the family, married the Grand Duke Nicho las Nlkolawitch, and another, Helena, is now Queen of Italy. There are Ger man connections, as well, the Grown Prince having married a German duchess, and the daughter, Anna, mar ried a German prince. That the ministers remaining back at Podgoritza think they are really the government is indicated by a recent statement by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Popovitch. "In accord ance with the constitution." he said, "three "of us remained behind and con stitute the whole of the government. I am minister of foreign affairs and min ister of the interior. Mr. Radalovitch, is acting premier and minister of edu cation, and Gan. Vesovitch is minister of war." l.lvlncc "t Hotel These are the ministers, however, n'lio | were ordered by King Nicholas not t» carry on business, and it remains to be seen who is the real government.
