r. J. Dunno wants to Warn the Irish
People Against DIR. O'RelIly and
E Colonel Atkinson "A Sensational
Meeting Held at Ohicago-A Meeting
of Irishmen Held to Help the Prison
ers Now On Trial to Make a Proper
Legal Defence.
|. CHICAGO, Nov. S.-The friends of DIR.
Cronin, who are arranging public gathering
to add to the prosecution fund, held meet-
ing to day which proved even moro sensa-
tional than that of last Sunday. II want to
say" said P. ". Dunno, after various COM
mittees on arrangements had reported. "that
there is demand for decided action by this
body. DR.. O'Reilly and Colonel Atkinson of
Detroit have gone to Ireland. 1t is not pos-
sible they had no object in view, and move
that we send oablegram to Parnell at once
to advise him of their true mission.
The opposition, the murderers of DR..
Cronin, and the arch-fend back Of it all have
sent them to poison the minds of our race.
They are row trying to find support in the
old country, and if we do not let our coun-
trymen know who they are and what they
are there for We will suffer for 1t. We are
already misunderstood, and Parnell ought to
until he hears from the meeting of the 3d."
"That's right" said P. o. O'Connor,
flour ffths of the Irish people are SO mysti-
fed that they believe there was justification
in the murder of DR.. Cronin, and that he was
British spy. The man we know to be re-
sponsible for his murder, and who has long
been the plunderer and spokesman of his peo-
pie, is their demi-god. The Irish people
cannot believe this uncrowned king of ~
600, 900 people can be guilty of such crime,
and they look upon with contempt for
prosecuting patriots who they believe put to
death spies. These men who have gone to
Ireland know what they are about, and they
will get aid either of sentimental or q fnan-
cial kind to buy the acquittal of the tool of
the arch fend."
The suggestion was opposed on the ground
that the proposed public gathering was
celebration of a revolutionary measure, the
anniversary of the Manchester martyrs, and
a communication TO Mr.. Parnell might en-
barrass that leader by connecting him with
it. The chairman ruled further discussion
of the matter out of order.
at McCoy's Hotel to-day at which 1916 WAS
collected for the purpose of :'seeing that the
prisoners now on trial for their lives before
Judge Mcconnell be supplied with means to
make proper and legal Defense" About
one hundred men were present, and
when the object of the meeting had
been stated the chairman, F.. V.
Fitzpatrick, who keeps small store on TWEEN
ty-second street, said that he believed 1t the
proper thing for every Irishman present to
put his hand in his pocket and give a. much
as he was able for the purpose Of seeing JUS
tice done. The suggestion was received with
a shout, and the money was handed in as fast
as the treasurer could enter the amounts on
his books. The men who subscribed looked
kI.ary oI1I !, hoy rnad
to buy food for themselves and families. One
man gave see, several gave $40, two gave 81
and all the rest fifty cents apiece.
The following was unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That this meeting authorize
committee to solicit subscriptions from Irish
men to create fund for the purpose Of pro-
curing fair and impartial trial for certain Of
our country men now in jail accused of crime
and who are poor and unable to mako q
proper defense for the want of money. And
while not going into the question of guilt or
innocence, we desire that justice be allowed
freedom of action.
