are returning from France where they
failed to link any Irish-American sus-
poets with the dynamite plots, The

LONDON. April 2l.-The Times pub
fishes interviews with prominent Irish
men in the French capital, among them
Patrick Casey, of Monteuil university.
He declares it probable that the dyna-
mite policy will be extended to blowing
up Atlantic passenger steamers and mer-
chantmen, thus running England's COM
merce. James Stephens, formerly the
Fenian head center, however, condemns
the principles and practices of the dyna-
miters and advocates armed revolution.
A continuance of the dynamite policy,
he thinks, means certain death to the
Irish cause. John OLeary, formerly
editor of the Irish People, like wise dis
approves of the dynamite policy. He
favors open rebellion. He was sorry to
say that the people in America were not
adverse to the employment Of dynamite.
Father Hogan, of St. Sulpice Catholic
college, thinks the explosions are doing
Ireland no good, but ALLEVIATE from the
Irish cause many honest people who
would otherwise support it. Ireland will
get home-rule in the course of time. If
the recent concessions had been granted
some years ago, Ireland would now be
happy.
