WINDOW-BREAKING ORGIE.
TRANSPORTERS' UNION.
PROTEST BY EMPLOYERS.
Times-Sydney Sun Special Cable. (Received September 4, 10.30 p.m.)
London, September 4. Early yesterday morning, a mob in Dublin extinguished the street lamps and defied the authorities.
Windows were smashed wholesale, and the streets were strewn with the wreckage of damaged houses.
A lancer riding to Dublin Castle was stoned from a side street and had to gallop to escape the fusillade.
Larkin (secretary of the Transporters' Union), who is charged with inciting to violence, has been remanded in custody.
Four hundred of the leading employers of Dublin have passed a resolution to the effect that they entertain a friendly feeling for trade unionism, but that the Transport Union is intolerable. The majority of the 400 signed a pledge not to employ members of the union.
