Charlottetown, Dec. 7th. REDDIN. The Situation in Ireland. Sir Michael Hicks-Beach has returned to Dublin in response to a hasty summons to attend a conference of the justices and law officers of the crown. It is report- ed that it was decided at the conference to prosecute trustees holding tenants rents, and to proclaim al! meetings announced to be held for the purpose of enforcing the anti-rent programme. The coercive pulicy of the Government is approved by Lord Hartington. The Dublin agent of the Central News telegraphs that the Irish Executive in con- sequence of the proceedings at the recent cabinet council, is preparing for a deter- mined struggle against the Irish National League. The proposed warfare,the telegram asserts, will include the proclamation of all league meetings and the arrest of prominent anti-rent agitators. The agent adds that he has reason to believe that the seizure of the Uuited Ireland has also been decided upon by the government. The Cork pglice were stoned on Satur- day at a meeting addressed by Mr. O’Brien in one of the public streets. They charged tire crowd with swords and then ran off to reinforcements. Police In- er soon appeared with more policemaen and drew them up inline. The mayor also arrived and forbade the action of the police saying he was responsible for the peace « f the city. Meanwhile throwing was renewed, and Inspector Shan- non, whe had broveht more assistance, de- clined to have his men made targets of or to obey the mayor's orders, The inayor retired. There was serious rioting in the evening, and a number of policemen and citizens were injured, the latter by bayonet thrusts. Twenty-three persons have been treated at the hospital for scalp wounds. One policeman had his skull fractured. sine eli walt ea THe output of the Springhill, N. §&., coal mines is about 40,600 tons per month, or at the rate of 500,000 tons a year, ————— HOTEL ARRIVALS. yeaa? iOlTGA, ‘ ; : DAITACKS Tor spector ¢ ott stone ROCKLIN Dec 6— W Currie, Boston, Mass; R Me- Neill, M D, Stanley Bridge; Hamilton Coffin, Savage Harbor; James Sinclair, Elmsdale; Richard Burdett, Dundas; David Crosby, Bon- shaw; Hugh McMillan, New Haven, HOUSE, MARRIED, At the manse, Wood Islands.
