$15,000,000 FIRE PLACES CAP ON ERIN TROUBLES (Continued From Fare One.) enee MacSwlaey, who became the hero the Sinn Fein through his voluntary death for the cause, was formerly lord mayor of Cork. BRITISH TROOPS IX SOUTH IRELAND. All of South Ireland Is crammed with British troops. Measures are being taken to tighten and possibly extend martial law. All the motor cars were commandeered at Queenstown by British troops, which was interpreted as a preliminary move to more drastic military activity. • The severity with which the British troops are putting down sniping and ambuscade attacks was revealed from Cioyne, County Cork, where bombs were thrown from two houses at a military patrol. The bombers were attacked; one man killed, two others wounded and two made prisoners. Then both houses were burned to the ground. CORK, Dec. 13.—Heavily armed British troops and black and tan police were on guard about the fire-swept ruins in the heart of Cork under orders to shoot al! looters on sight. The whole central part of the city was burned with loss estimated at $15,000,000. Hundreds of persons are homeiess. Many have fled from the city in panic. Large numbers of refugees from the City passed the night in the fields. Their {gjferings were intensified by cold RNierher and snow. Business is at a standstill In Cork. Even the restaurants are closed. The city is without gas. Many streets that were bustling arteries of traffic forty-eight hours ago. were only piles of fire blackened brick today. Four blocks were wiped out entirely. Only the walls of the city hall remain. Firemen from Dublin arrived during the morning. They were met in the suburbs and convoyed to the scene of the fire by troops.

The firemen, under military guards, still were pouring water on the debris. It is declared by Sinn Fein sympathixers that, before the fires broke cut Saturday night, black and tan policemen broke into siiops and looted them, carrying off the booty In valises. The con-
