SECRET SOCIETIES ACTIVE. MAY LEAD TO BLOODSHED. *y gash must* asscjcia-hux-cupyaiuhv-LONDON, . Sept. 20. The Dublin correspondent of the Morning Post says residents of the northern border territory are openly discussing the imminence of bloodshed. The people pushing for strife are secret societies, but both sober-minded Free Staters and De Valera, representing the Republicans, condemn a maddog policy, which proposes to infuriate Ulster by insisting on coercion and then to repudiate the finding of the commission if Ulster is not dismembered. The secret societies, however, do not realise that the bloody game may be successful once, but not twice. The fall in the Free State national ToniT is an indication of dread in well-informed quarters. ARMS SEIZED. LONDON, Sept. 19. The police made a raid on an unoccupied house in Belfast, and discovered a machine gun, a quantity of bombs and rifles and thousands of rounds of ammunition, . which were seized.
