§ MR. SEXTONasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether he had any official information as to loss of life or personal injury arising out of the Orange celebrations in the North of Ireland?
§ MR. TREVELYANI have received the following telegram:— "Sub-Inspector at Newry reports a slight disturbance there last night (Thursday)) (luring which William Miller, shopkeeper, wounded Edward Kearney, labourer's son, aged 15, with revolver in the leg, not dangerously. Miller arrested. Police dispersed mob, which threw some stones. All quiet in an hour after. Motive party spirit. Sub-Inspector at Lurga reports some stone-throwing at police last night; Army Reserve man fired at police and was arrested; no harm done." There was likewise a riot at Omagh, in which an Orangeman was wounded, I believe slightly. These occurrences are unfortunate, and I am very sorry for the poor people who are wounded; but, on the whole, I hope the House will congratulate itself on the celebrations having passed off quietly.
