Stephens is exceedingly aflisble. Bis

cordial. A small sized man, with

Chief Executive Stephens. Killian

Large numbers of Irishmen have
called upon Stephens to-day, to whom
he invariably said that hc had come
here to effect a reconciliation be-

announced that he had been induced
to accept Colonel O'Mahonys resig-
