MOBS DRIVEN OFF WITH BAYONETS
LONDON, Ist June.
The shooting in Belfast has been marked by the most atrocious crimes. Many have been killed in houses where th-e rival factions pursued them, and houses in which corpses lay were set on fire. The bodies were rescued just in time-to prevent cremation. In some instances the firemen's hoses were played over themselves. Bayonet charges by the military dispelled the mobs, which joined in an appalling battle. The situation is still grave. ■■ Entire families are fleeing in panic.
