harsh terms in which certain DOT tons of them were expressed. He suggested an amendment modifying those portions. The amendment was lost, the spirit of the audience manifesting itself in the words of one speaker, Give them the worst we've got" The resolutions were then adopted. The chairman sub- mltted the following;
 ReSolred, That this meeting respect fully expresses its adherence of the barbarous assassination of Dr. CrOnin, and the fervent hope that his murder CTS may be brought to speedy justice; that we see nothing in this terrible crime that affects the fundamental jus tice of the Irish Land League move ment to destroy the curse of the Irish people, and all people, landlordism; that we are convinced that the fundamental cause of this murder is the common, selfish struggle of unprincipled men to amass wealth, and that, so long as the stolen dollar in the hands of the un- | known murderer will purchase as much of the necessities, comforts and luxuries of this life as will the hard-earned dollar of the honest worker, murderers and thieves will find their victims in the ideal reformatory organizations as well as in private life
 V. V. Hunt and several other lrishmen thanked Mir. Morgan for the resolutions, and seemed particu- larly pleased that they should have emanated from the brain and heart of an Englishman, representative of the nation which Irish patriots regard as Ireland's deadly enemy. Mir. Morgan, however, disclaimed any thanks on this score, declaring that he had always been warm friend of the Irish cause, and was a promoter of the first Irish Land League Club organized in this city. The resolutions were unanimously adopted.
 Prof. Orchardson again took the floor and proceeded to read mum. Der of extracts from a neat little brochure of which he is the pub fisher and author, entitled, "Look' ing Forward.
 An extremely interesting and quite lengthy discussion upon the various points raised by the speaker followed the reading. A very elo- quent and enthusiastic speech, abounding in poetical quotations and historical allusions was made by Comrade Adams, who IS justly re- garded as one of our most promising recruits.
 Mir. Cook came out quite strong, expressing his admiration of social istic principles and complimentng Comrade Morgan in such strong language as to almost make our vet eran blush. He thought "Tommy Morgan was the greatest stump speaker in America" He was, how. ever, anxious to utilize the "demo. cratic" party-he believed by proper management we could gain every. thing through them. Two or three other speakers took the same stand, but the futility of all such ideas was fully shown up in a closing speech by our chairman, which completely justified Mir. Cooks pre- yious eulogies.
 The following lecture program for the agitation meetings of the en. suing month was then read by the chairman, and the meeting ad. journed after a lengthy session ot nearly four hours:
