Views Of Consul Edwards
Irish Nationalists as to
tnOrs.

Mr.. J. Pierrepont Edwards, Bril-
at this port, said yesterday to a re,
he had no doubt as to the authe \
cable reports Of the discovery of I'd
chimes in the cargo of the steamsh
and Bavarian. It was in the linz
he thought which O'Donoyan Rosa
sell to adopt, and lie was willing
should have the credit, il there
credit, attaching to the performsI
mentioning Mr.. Rosa in this conns
Edwards did not desire to impute /
actual preparation or shipment Of
s.ve material concealed in cementh
it was the sort of thing which Ross
vOcated. "Rossa has already hin,1
was responsible for the destruction

Edwards, and this was apparel
tempt at q similar piece of business!
As to what action, if any, Her
Government would take to did
American cOnsignors of the conceaI
sives Mr.. Edwards could not say, q
wholly an international matter BET
two Governments, knd the British
at Washington would be the only
thorized to act in the matter in ID
States.
MI. Patrick Walch, a prominent
tionslist, when asked his opinion Cd
the reported discovery of internal
said:
"It's all humbug. The men "
puted to have done this may have
but they haven't the money!"
"Who do you understand among
tionalists is reputed to have made |

why, O'Donovan Rosa, of coua
will is good enough for that sort of !
. man can't buy q horse and carrias
money"
MI. Edward ]. Rowe, ex-Secreta1
Executive Council Of the Irish
Land League, SAID ut is all
signed to keep up the agitation over
question. l don't Think Rosa dbl
he had consigned these barrels of d
would certainly not have left aud
them that would serve as a clue to
nection with the conspiracy. I've 1
he would make such a shipment II !
and If he thought he could accompl
thing by it. Besides there are plentd
in this city who would volunteer toA
machines 'where they would do !
good l don't think Rosa has a d
sonal following in this city ; l sboal
majority of Irish patriots are oppos|
method of doing things. l should
not improbable that this plot may ID
arranged by English Conservatives 4
1t will certainly make the cause Of
Nationalist unpopular in this couut
create a strong prejudice against

Mr.. Michael Breslin, Vice-P residei
Irish National Land League, said: 1
impression OIL reading the cable II
the discovery of these Internal mach
that it was arranged in some VA
British authorities. But when
think of it l decided it could not h
planned by Sir Vernon Harcour!4
the finding Of such uncomfortsh
among the carg oes of British shil
throw discredit on their vessels,
would never do. Clockwork for Il
chimes is not hard to make, and wh
world should they send them from
when. they could make them At 10
half the risk ? What will the effet
discovery be? should say there vi
immediate effect, but all this exciteu
to increase the enlightenment OF In
to its rights, and keeps England ner
uncomfortable. Some of our people
see something going on all the time
may have been done 10 amuse them
rate, the Irish agitation has killed
of English diplomacy for a long
come."-N. Y. World.
