PROTEST AGAINST PEACE
IRISH rebel; outrage.
17 PERSONS INJURED.
EXTREMISTS OUT OF HAND.
Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn. (Received April 30, 1.3 Q p.m.) LONDON, April 29.
A signal oabin on the Great Northern terminus, Dublin, was destroyed by the explosion of a mine laid by irregulars. A passing passenger train had the windows shattered, and 17 persons, mostly girls, were slightly injured. A speciar correspondent states that this outrage is believed to be a protest by extremists against De Valera's peace overture. De Valera is no longer able to control the unruly elements, who possess large quantities of mines and are able to, do unlimited damage to private property. Nobody in Dublin puts much faith in the w peace move, as the Free State Government ignores it, and will not make any compromise with the rebels. It is feared that further outrages will be enacted in a iew days, but as an organised force the Republicans have ceased to count.
