§ 110. Mr. WHELERasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether his attention has been called to the disturbances which occurred on Monday, 25th November, at the Rotunda at Dublin, at a concert at which the Lord Lieutenant was present, when a part of the audience called for cheers for an Irish Republic; and whether he will take any action against those persons who made those seditious utterances?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI am informed that on the occasion referred to four young men created a slight disturbance. They were removed by the police, but as those responsible for the concert expressed a wish that no charge should be preferred against them, legal proceedings will not be taken. The audience, which was very large, resented the interruption, and the Lord Lieutenant was warmly received, and on leaving the hall was loudly cheered.
