A Delegation of Six Appointed to Visit
America.


America.
DUBLIN, October 6lh-The conference of
the Irish Nationalists, called by Parnell,
was held to-day. part of the business
was the selection of a deputation to visit
America to lay before the people of that
country plain statement of the situation
of sffsirs in Ireland. John Dillon, Will
lam O'Brien, Thomas Power O'Connor,
Timothy Sullivan and Abram Gill were
appointed.
The proceedings of the convention were
conducted in private. There was very
large attendance. Most of the prominent
Nationalists were present. Justin McCsr-
thy moved the adoption of four resolutions.
all of which had been previously submit
ted to Parnell. The first pledges the fullest
support of the National League to tenants
threatened with ruin IN consequence of the
course adopted by the Government and
landlord syndicates.
The second demands that certain dis
tressed districts in the southern and west
ern parts of Ireland be given especial con-
sideration by the Government, and that
measures be taken at once for the relief of
the inhabitants. The Governments called
upon to inaugurate series of public i'm
provements for the purpose of giving;
employment to the people and enabling
them to support themselves without char
itab'e assistance.
The third condemns, in emphatic terms.
the action of the Government in causing
the arrest of O'Brien, Dillon, and other
Nationalist leaders.
The fourth says the Nationalist party is
compelled by circumstances to make an
appeal to its friends everywhere in behalf
of the Irish tenants, and looks especially
to lis friends in America to subscribe gen.
erously for the benefit of the distressed
people. This appeal, the resolution says,
is made most unwillingly, but the desper-
ate strait in which the Irish tenants-aIe Q
now placed, makes it absolutely necessary
that assistance be asked from their friends
and svmpathiZers throughout the world.
Parnell sent telegram to the Confer
ence that he greatly regretted his inabil-
ity to be present, and expressed conf
dence that the deliberations of the meet
ing would be guided by wisdom and pa
triotism, and result for the good, of the
public He also expressed hope that the
mission to America would meet with all
possible success.
Dillon, o Brien and other Natiopalists at
Tipperary sent kilograms expressing regret
that the disgusting judicial farce pre-
vented their attending the Conference.
