CHICAGO, Aug. 2O.-A large meeting
was held at Artillery Armory, on Lake
Front this evening, to hear addresses by
Michael Davitt and the Irish parliamen
tary delegates. An interesting feature OF
the evening was the presentation to ex
President Egan of the Irish National
Land League Of a beautiful service of
plate from his friends in Ireland. The
presentation was accompanied by an ad
dress signed by nearly 800 leading Irish
men, from which the following extract is
taken to explain the cause Of the presen-
~tation:
Upon your return to Ireland last
December, after a prolonged political exile.
many Of the foremost citizens Of Dublin
were DESTROYS of entertaining you at a
public banquet, to testify the atfectionate
cordiality with which your fellow citizens
were eager to welcome you home. That
intention was laid aside in Difference TO
your emphatic intimation that scourged as
Ireland was with coercion and darkened
with hideously familiar shades of famine.

modestly given as they were priceless to

every part of Ireland sought a
participation in the compliment. They

Of plate, more valuable in you eyes be.
wrought by Irish hands We beg
acceptance OF the gift as a pledge Of your

qualities as an lrishman and a friend"
In the course of his reply accepting the
gift, Egan said Il beg you. sir, to con
icy to the numerous signers of the address
and the donors OF this presentation, my
warmest thanks and my assurance. that in

be directed toward keeping the green flag
Of Ireland nailed to the mast until the not

The New York Herald says THE
verdict which condemns seven OF the
Chicago Anarchists " death and the other
to a long term OF Imprisonment will be
hailed with a general satisfaction not
equalIed since that which followed the
conviction of Guiteau. With one ex
ception these miscreants have been found
guilty of murder and are condemned to
pay its penalty. But their crime is more
heinous and more dangerous than ordinary
murder. They scoffed at law, conspired
against organized government, and reck-
lessly attacked social order. The end Of
the diabolical teachings was general muir
der. arson and pillage. They plotted and
threatened wholesale destruction of life
and property. In spirit, what they sought,
was simply, as their name implies
anarchy-and anarchy of the most appal
ing kind. They have o been made to
feel the grasp of that law which they
affected to despise and attempted to
trample under foot. The verdict rendered
yesterday condemns these criminals to
deserved punishment 1t will have a
more far reaching effect. 1t will have a
timely and wholesome warning to Anar-
chists, not only in Chicago, but in New
York, San Francisco. New Orleans, or
wherever they may be found, that the red
flag of anarchism can not be openly run
up with IMMUNITY in this country. The
verdict is of national importance, and the
jury hat so promptly and fearlessly rem

The New York San. commenting
on the Anarchists conviction, says:
The best intelligence that has been
printed in many days, wholesome and
cheering to all who respect law and order,
and who love their country, is that which
comes from Chicago. Seven murderous
and frantic scoundrels who moved against
all law, all reason, all decency, and the
peace and welfare of a civilized people,
are to be extirpated on the gallows for the
murders of which they were guilty. The
law they de6ed will be justified in their
execution, and a necessary warning will
be afforded to this class OF criminals, for
whom there is no room in this land. We
have had no such task imposed on us in
New York as has Ievolved on the author
tiles in Chicago, but we are quite equal to
it should so deplorable a necessity arise
We have Most and a few other reptiles in
Jail. We have dealt fairly well with our
foreign ~boycotters, and we have a police
force that is equal to any emergency, but
all honor to Chicago, for her example.
She deserves the thanks and the graft
tude of every community in the country.
and she has them in the fullest measure.
