LONDON, July 2. The National
troops began an attack on the Irreg
ulars at 5 o'clock this afternoon, ac
cording to a Central News dispatch
from Dublin. After a couple of
shells had struck Moran's hotel, a
white fjag was hoisted and the gar
rison surrendered. t
The regulars surrounded the Sack
Till e street area. Thus far the cas
ualties have been light. A field
gun opened on the Greshara hotel
and the Central Telegraph office
also was under fire.
A number of rebel strongholds in
Dublin have been captured, accord
ing to a. press, association dispatch.
Four hundred prisoners have been
taken by the national troops.
CHURCH SERVICES IMMUNE
Unofficial Trace Maintained in
; Dublin; Many Attend Mass.
DUBLIN, July 2. (Special Cable.)
A brooding silence pervades the
city today. Occasionally it was
broken by the fire of enpers.
An unofficial truce was main
tained during church services, some
of which were conducted within the
fighting areas, the Catholic cathe
dral off O'Connell street, immedi
ately behind the buildings occupied
by the insurgent republicans, was
crowded long before the hour set for
the first mass.
The firing, which had heen spora
dic before the services began, ceased
at 7 o'clock. Republicans in small
parties left their strongholds to at
tend mass.
Central street conditions remain
ad, few persons appearing, except"
at sheltered corners. National troops
are forming an extensive cordon in
the district about the insurgents,
prohibiting all traffic, both vehicu
lar and pedestrian, except in emer
gency cases. All persons who are
permitted to pass the lines are
thoroughly searched.
During the night sniping opera
tions were greatly extended on the
north and south sides of the city.
Ac wjw. vi. uid uuui.il oiuc Blueing
apparently was to harass national
troops traveling from Porto Bello,
Beggars Bush and the Wellington
barracks to the central fighting
zone.
Nothing is known of conditions
within the occupied buildings, but
it is believed mines have been laid
all about the vicinity where republi
cans are operating. Their war news
sheet today, states: t
"Republican forces operating in
Dublin have been reinforced both in
men. and material. For military
reasons no further information can
be given out at present." - -
The same sheet announces that
among six prisoners from the Four
Courts who escaped Friday evening
while temporarily lodged in Jame
son's distillery were Commandant
General Ernest O'Malley, who nego
tiated the surrender, and Commandant-General
Joseph Griffin, both re
publican staff officers. .
Griffin was held by the British
last year following the burning of
the Dublin custom-house until the
signing of the amnesty treaty.
O'Malley was held because of his
good military record in the war
against the British foroes.
The war news sheet also publishes
a letter from Llam Mellowes, now in
the Mountjoy jail with other re
publican prisoners. It sets' forth
that they demanded war prisoners'
treatment, but did not receive it;
that they were given the alternative
of going to cells or remaining in the
prison yardo under guard. They
cnose the latter, but at midnight
were forcibly transferred to cells.
Apparently this action was taken
for their own well-being, the night
being very cold and rainy. There is
an unconfirmed rumor of some se
rious trouble in the jail last
night, one prisoner being reported
Wounded.

FOUR COURTS IN DUBLIN.
A fierce battle has been raging around Four Courts in Dublin, between the regular Irish republican army
troops and Irregulars under Rory O'Connor for the possession of this building which O'Connor has seized.
The trouble began when Commandant Leo Henderson, director of the Ulster boycott and dne of the leaders
of the insurgent republican troops at Four Courts was arrested by free state forces. In reprisal Commandant-General
O'Connell, assistant chief of staff of the regulars, was seized as hostage and taken to the rebel
stronghold. Late advices are that the building has been largely ruined. '

Embers of Previous Blaze Are
Fanned Into Flame.
Fires were raging again yester
day in the vicinity of Corbett, ac
cording to reports reaching the
sheriff's office yesterday. The fires
were caused by embers of the fire
that marked the last hot spell. The
embers were fanned into flame by a

spread the first blaze.
A call for assistance was received
by the fire department from B. B.
Miller, ex-Portland fireman, who
has a home near that of ex-Judge
Arthur Langguth. Miller reported
that his buildings were surrounded
and he wanted a chemical sent out

swept to the north of the town.
Acreage that escaped the first fire
was being cleaned out by the sec

for help, but received little. Deputy
Sheriff Lamont was sent from Port
land to keep an'eye on the situa

buckets of water to watch sparks
that fell upon buildings and in dry
grasses, so as to prevent new fires.

roller, will not meet William G.
Delyea of Coeur d'Alene in a con
tent at Aberdeen July 4, as had been
scheduled, the former announced
last night. The challenger tele
graphed he could not come. Cao
tain Henderson has held the title
and met all comers since 1912, but
after having influenza and pneu
monia four years ago withdrew
from contests.
The challenge this year would
have brought him out of v retire
ment, the plan being that if Delyea
in the preliminaries "wetted" all
his opponents. Captain Henderson
would meet him, but that was the
one condition Henderson adhered
to. He said, however, that there
were execellent rollers among the
men now working on the Harbor
who would furnish just as much ex
citement and 'that he is definitely
out of the game.
