The destruction of the six, business establishments followed within forty- eight hours of General Strickland''s warning ,that he would rule Ireland with a harsher hand unless all attacks upon the Crown forces ceased at. once. The miltaxy officials assert that on Saturday night while they were eseert- ing an ambulance containing wounded men to•a lhe,slsital they were fired upon from blouses in Washington street and also fawn street corners. The houses selected for destruction are said to have been ''occupied by well- known. Sinn Fein sympsithizers who were given- a warning to dear out.

A despatch from Berne says:—The announcement just made here that the Canadian Government has introduced a merchant marine flag showing a white cross encircled by a rin • on a reit ground has caused consternation in Switzerland. The Swiss flag is, of course; a.white cross on a red ground, but without any ring around the cross, and the' Swiss. press and public are asking gov- ernment ov- ernment `whether Canada cannot be prevented from having a merchant marine flag so closely resembling the Swiss flag, especially as• Switzerland hopes one day to have her own mer- chant marine, in view of her long - cherished project of having a canal connecting the Rhone, or one connect- ing Marseilles Marseilles with Lyons and Geneva, and also utilizing the Rhone. -- Switzerland likewise wants to establish shipping connections with Antwerp by the Rhine, while Italy. is planning to connect Venice and the Upper Adriatic with the "great ' Alpuie passes ,iiy means of the River Po and Lake Magiore, one end' o which is in Switzerland. Before the war German manufac- turers got into the 'habit of using the Swiss national colors for various toilet articles, but the Swiss Government protested, and the custom was aban- doned.

REVOLT MAY FOLLOW ARMY REDUCTION Measure to Withdraw Troops in India Opposed b� Military y Men.. A despatch from London says: -:-A Reuter despatch from Delhi says: "Much uneasiness prevails at th moment in the Indian army at th decision of the Government to demo ilize about a dozen Indian cavalry an over thirty Indian infantry regiment This ;means. that about 30,000 Hien an 2,500 British officers will be dis- charged from the service by the end of March. It is also believed probable that the British forces in India will be reduced by the sending home of two British cavalry and of four British infantry battalions. "These measures are .being adopted partly because the great war is ended and partly owing to the -withdrawal of troops from Mesopotamia and to the. bad financial outlook iii -the country and the consequent :p owing' Indian outcry at `heavy army expenditures. The Government of India is now con- sidering ways and means of meeting the heavy Budget deficit which seems ,inevitable, owing to the fall in' ex- chaiige and severe -trade depression. Tie Daily TeI graph; in an edithrial headed "Are We Giving Up India?" takes a very serious -view of the an- nouncement contained in this despatch. It says the reduction of the Indian army was not recoinmended' by the. Commander -in -Chief lin India, nor by the Army Council at home, nor by the Viceroy's ani1itagy advisers. "These responsible •authorities," it says; "are entirely opposed to any diminution of the small army of Eur- opean, soldiers which' giiards • India against invasion and. rebellion. It is regarded with equal disfavor by the most highly placed and experienced officials of the Indian Civil Service. Nevertheless it was carried in the Viceroy's Council by the votes of non- official and `native 'memters.: They ob- jected to the increase ' of taxation which .would be required to maintain the army at its present establishment: The Viceroy was unable or unwilling to insist on this necessary addition to the military budget, and • on division the -party in favor etheanous economy vas in the majority." Germans Harmless From Military Viewpoint A despatch • from Paris , says`:, —Four pourparlers between rano and Great Britain show that no undue pressure is to be xercisecl' upon Germany, on the uestion of immediate disai�xn.a- ent of the home guards. Experts 'of both countries have ssured their Governments that ermany to -day is altogether armless from a military view- oint. It has been decided"to anction the Spa agreement that lrth�er occupation of German erritory will be postponed by. the Supreme Council next week. i e h- President Wilson Has Sent a Sovereign Carries Remains ; Note to Allied Nations.

A b i` girl of ,five years of age was killed outright, and a boy eight years was seriously hurt. King Albert, who was in the ma- chine, was greatly perturbed by the event; and personally carried' the body of the little girl to the cottage of her parents and sought to console them in their: loss. The King then fetched two doctors to attend the injured boy.

When the;Allies asked . President Wilson to fix the Armenian frontiers they agreed thoroughly, to' co-operate. With this- assurance thePresident proceeded by appointing - Henry Mor- genthau' as his representative He then asked the Allies to suggest how the `subject should 'be approached. No suggestions from the Allies have. been received in response >to- ithis-re- quest' practicallyfor �instiuetron - ` s, ex- cept one "from`Lloyd George' that the President might discuss the matter with the Allied commissioners at Con- stantinople. This method was not re- garded by. the Government as condu- sive to results. The best opinion is that, the` Presi- dent already has indicated to' the Al- : liethat he e may take up the boundary question with Turkey. This Govern - meat previously has advised the Allies that, as the United States, assisted in the defeat of Turkey, it has the right. to be heard on any treaty settlement by the Allies with Turkey which in- volves partition or rearrangement' of territory. That"includes Armenia. RESEARC; i _WORK RECORDS vSTROY ED When Flax.
