Clancy, the sub-shsrir OF Dublin. They
diaed az the house of Mr. Timothy
Haaly. Then they boarded the yacht
81 Patrick. commanded by Captain Mi
ch tel Murphy. and set sail for France.
They we're becalmed for several days

aud the iugitives could sec its crew
watch the ST. Patrick.
Mr.. OBrlen said that out OF the forty
bye-elections held in Great Britain
since the assembling Of the present Par
lament fourteen had been won by the
Gladstonian or home-rule party. This
vas fair indication, he said.
OF the feeling Of the British
people on tho home-rule queS-
tion. Ito believed the Tories would
be forced 20 dissolve Parliament sooner
than they anticipated. The Govern
ment, he said, was not taking proper
measures for the relief Of tho panic
stricken districts in ireland They first
denied that famine existed, and now
they admitted that there was deep dis
tress in the country by proposing meas
ures for their relief.
When the steamer landed at her pier
the distinguished Irish men were driven
to the Hoffman House. where they
made arrangements with the committees
70 address meetings throughout the
country, at which subscriptions will be
taken Up for the Irish National League.
Shortly after moan Governor Iill
called on Messrs. Dillon and O'Brien at
the Hoffman House. He had short
talk with them and told them that his
sympathy was with the Irish move
ment. Then he signed the address of
welcome and invited the delegation to
visit him at the Capitol at Albany.

spects.

lon, Gill, Sullivan and Harrington met
the reporters. and Mr. OBrien who

nell before leaving Ireland and he fully con-
cured in our objects"
Mr O'Brien said there was absolute unity
IN the ranks Of the Parliamentary party and
among the people. The old taunt Of instabil-
ity Of purpose could no longer be thrown at
IrelaDi. IL was unnecessary T. say much
about his and Mr. Dillon's reasons for leaving
ireland in the peculiar manner in which they
did Mr.. O'Brieu said they were well watched
by police and spies and their footsteps were
being continually dogged while IN the country.
Yet they we're caught mapping. Neither br1bes
nor threats induced any one 10 tell the police Of
their departure and Balfours system OF
espionage was wasted.
The Government can not trust its c.7n
