THIRD EXPLOSION.
Police Discover Dump Of Arms
And Amunition.
BANDITS IN DUBLIN.
(Australian Press Assn.—United Service.) LONDON, November 12.
There was a third violent explosion at Balls Bridge, Dublin, on Armistice Day, following two other explosions in the city. There an attempt was made to blow up the fountain erected to commemorate the late King Edward's visit to open the international exhibition. The damage was only slight. Later in the day the police discovered a dump of arms and ammunition in good condition at Inchicore. The arms included three machine-guns and many hand grenades.
A party of masked men at Fox Rock, County Dublin, held up 30 members of a golf club with revolvers. They fired several shots and wounded a woman named Mrs. Fitzgerald.
The bandits then stole all the money the members of the club had in their pockets. They escaped without being identified.
