Dynamite ! dynamite ! The dynamite scare has degenerated into a common nuisance in Belfast. The authorities are in abject teTror, and " suspicion " seems to pervade the very atmosphere. Passengers landing from the vessels are interrogated, searched, insulted. Their baggage is ransacked, and often injured, and in some instances they are even forced to the police barrack or before a magistrate before they can be liberated. This kind of attention should be rather irritatating to any person. But to commercial travellers and business men in general it has, undoubtedly, been a cause of great inconvenience and loss.— Nation, May 31>
