MISERY IN DUBLIN.

FACING STARVATION

(Received Oct. 8, 9.25 a.m.) I LONDON, Oct. 7. Terrible pictures are drawn of the misery in Dublin, where 100,000 people are facing starvation. The failure of the negotiations has destroyed hope of early relief, though it is believed the employers will reassemble to-morrow and may abate their demands. Meanwhile throngs of men, women and children, ill-clad, rainsoaked and half-starved, attend at the liberty stall to receive rations. The Miners' . Federation has voted £1000 weekly for relief during the lock-out.
