IRIsH InDIaNATIoN MEETING.
Lowell must be Recalled an,
American Citizens Protected.

WAsHrSaTos, December ia lars
meeting was held this evening at Ford'
Opera House under the auspices Of Clat
Ma Gael, to express, in ..the words Of th,
call, the, american opinion and feeling IL
regard to the Judicial murder Of Patricl
0'Donnell by the British anthorities."
Congressman Robinson IN. " presided
He stated that 0'Donnell was not the hrsl
Irishman England had murdered, mol
would be the last, for there was an inter.
minable war between Ireland and England
He thanked God for that, because Eng
land represented oppression and every
thing despicable iplthe nineteenth century,
He criticised the anglo.mania which led
American people TO fete and make DO much
Of Enelishmen who visited America, simply
because they were Euglishmen. He did
not mean to find fault with $500, 900 citi.
zens Of the United States, bat with 500, 600
dudes, who focked In the train OF every
EngliBhman. The United States can.
not afford to have citizens arrested
in England without protest nor to have
them convicted without fair trials. The
name Of Patrick o 0'Donnell was prouder
laid more honored than those of all the
Queens and Monarchs in world. He
stated his intention to get the House OF
Representatives. say whether II approved
the course OF the Minister to- Great Britain.
II hehad been q true representative OF the
United States Patrick o. O'Donnell would be
alive to-day.
Lord J. Russell Lowell must come home
The whole diplomatic corps was disgrace
to America.
Congressman Calkins said he waJ not
here becaus, he had Irish blood In his
veins, but because he always had been Q
lover Of liberty, and because he hated
tyranny and intolerance. He hoped to
live to see the day when his people and
Ireland would be as free. as the
citizens Of America. The time was
not far OFF when the tyranny
under which Ireland Is oppressed will be
broken. II 1t should turn out when proper
investigation has been made that O'Don-
nell was convicted In spite OF law and
against It, then Ireland has added one
more patriot to her long line of individual
sufferers for freedom.
Congressman Finerty, OF Illinois, sale, the
meeting YVES called to lament on the i'm
potency Of this great nation, which by q
nation not fit to black its shoes had been
insulted in the person of its President.
There was u day. when; the cannon Of
America, feeble 10 day, would have an.
swered the insult and defiance Of England.
Suppose the President on Friday night
had telegraphed Lowell damn diplomacy,
/ demand the respite OF Patrick 0'Donnell
for ninety days CT diplomatic relations will
be suspended" II he had said that, the
blood Of the nation would have been up, and
ifEngland had sent her fleets they would
have been met as they have been met before.
he thought some Democrat should tell the
presiding officer Of the House what people
Of his sentiments thought Of surrenderipg
the control OF foreign affairs into the hands
of Clique who believed in hobnobbing
with English aristocracy. n
