Captain COOPERasked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether his attention had been called to the evidence of District Inspector Walsh at the Listowel petty sessions to the effect that the Lischaw district was in a most frightful condition, arid that there were no less than about forty threatening letters in the past week; and whether any steps were being taken to bring the district into a more peaceful condition?
§ Mr. BIRRELLMy attention has been called to the statement referred to in the Question. Thirty threatening notices were found posted in the district in connection with a dispute concerning a local quarry. The district in question is receiving all possible attention from the police.
