Psrnell Pledges Himself That He Will DO
All He Can for Peace.
CHICAGO. June ga special dispatch from
Denver says: John Fitzgerald, president of the
Irish National League, has received telegram
here notifying him OF the receipt of a
letter from Parnell pledging himself to
do everything consistent with his position to
carry out Fitzgeralds view. Mr.. Fitzgerald
SAYS this refers to the demand OF the party in
America that the Irish factions in Ireland unite
on a leader before the September convention.
and Fitzgerald adds that no money is being
sent or will be sent till they do unite, and that
plenty will be forthcoming then.
PARNELL COMING TO AMERICA.
CHICAGO, June 23.-J. j. O'Kelley, NJ. P,
chairman Of the Parnel ENJOYS denies that it
is the purpose Of the ENJOYS to bring their
mission to a close. being hopeless Of making any
headway in this country. He says that he
will form committee of prominent Irish
Americans in this city to assist in the work
here and will then go from city to city and Or
ganize similar bands Of determined men, who
will stick to Parnell to the end.
He says. furthermore. that the rumor that
the work is to be abandoned grew out of
the isct that Parnell himself has made
up his mind to come to America month
after next to visit the Baltimore con-
yention in November. and wishes to
have consultation with VIM. Redmond before
he leaves Ireland Redmond. at Parnells re-
quest, will go to Ireland and report TO ParnelI.
The leader wishes to leave Redmond on the
other side, in Ireland, during his own absence

SECRETARY FOSTER INTERVIEWED
He Approves the Work Of the Ohio Republic
can Convention.

CHICAGO, June pa special from Fostoria.
Ohio, says: Secretary Of the Treasury Foster is
spending few days at home looking after pri-
outlook, the Secretary said: ''The republican
convention did its work most acceptably to the
great mass Of the republicans of Ohio. and the
result in next November will, doubt not, fully
justify the wisdom of its action. The ticket is
a grand one and could not be improved on
''Ohio republicans have not and will not take
backward step, and the party has never gone
before the people with q national issue in which
it has not been successful. Maj. Mckinley is
head and front of the republican principle of
protection to American industries, and his
nomination shows to our opponents that
the party Is perfectly willing to make the con-
test on that issue. The contest in this
state is made national through the indorse-
ment OF the protective tariff, and international
because the republicans of Ohio are SO conf
dent OF their position that they have placed at
the head OF their ticket the very author of pro-
lection and the very man that is frowned on
by British manufacturers who under the pro-
tectlve system are debarred from their greatest
market In the world, where their manufactured
goods come into competition with our own"
What part will the farmers play in the
present campaign
The farmers movement can hardly be con-
sldered. As factor no one can readily discover
lts strength or purposes. 1t is one of those
spasmodic moves, or rather eruptiOns, that
comes into existence every few years and grad
ually disappears, as did the know nothings, the
greenbackers and the fiat money organization
believe, however. that farmers will see
through the illusion of cheap money and cheap
john politics. The farm er wants full dollar
Tor his wheat and the products Of his farm and
will not be deceived"

THE BRITISH Agents.
what Ii Said About Their Appointments at
the State Department

the State Department.
The announcement that reached here yester-
day to the effect that Sir George Baden Powell
and Prof Dawson had been appointed British
agents TO visit Boring seems 20 have
been received with considerable satisfaction at
the State Department. both gentlemen are
recognized as authorities in the matter. The
first impression was that these men were APP
pointed commissioners Of arbitration. and that
the appointment of the American COM
missioners would follow directly. Several
New York papers this morning even went so
far as TO say that the appointments from this
side would be made in few days. and men,
toned Prof. Nendenhall. Prof Dali and
Mr.. Elliott, the writer and Alaskan tray
eler. as gentlemen from whom the appoint
nients would be made. 1t ia generally
understood that the first two stand
tirst-rate chance Of being arbitrator when
arbitrators are finally called for. but the fact
remains that Mr.. Powell and Prof Dawson are
not commissioners at all. but simply special
agents
Mr.. Wharton, acting secretary of state said
to STAR reporter this afternoon that no
agreement calling for commissioners had
yet been signed and that the appoin tment of
two agents by Great Britain does not necessi-
tate two from this country.
The British agents were appointed under the
fourth clause in the modus yivendi of June Is,
which was agreed upon by Sir Julian Paunce-
tote and Mr. Wharton. The clause reads as
follows:
In order to facilitate such proper inquiries
as her majesty's government may desire to
make with view to the presentation of the
case of that government before arbitrator.
and IN expectation that an agreement for arbi-
tration may he arrived at, il is agreed that suit
able persons designated by Great Britain will
be permitted at any time. upon annlication 10

VICTORY FOR HIGH LICENSE.
Result of the Fight In the Aurora, Ill, City
Council.


AURORA, ILL.,. June 23-The high license peo-
pie have won the long fight in the city council.
The development in the struggle finally placed
Mayor Frazier in n position where he had the
opportunity to initiate the tactics of Speaker
Reed to the advantage of the high
license contingent. After absenting themselves
from the city for two weeks for the purpose of
breaking quorum and preventing the pas
sage of a 81 900 license ordinance the wanderers
came back and adopted new tactics. When
their names were called on the passage Of the
ordnance they refused to vote.
The mayor has power under the rules
adopted by the council to compel members to
vote. The mayor proceeded to enforce the
rule. but only one voted, and he may" The
votes stood seven yeas to one nav. which was
majority of the aldermen present and five who
constituted quorum. The fight then came to
a climax and the mayor decided that the
said 81. 900 license was carried, seven yeas to
one nay.
The decision was rendered after an elaborate
opinion had been given by the city attorney to
the effect that the supreme court had decided
that men who refuse to vote for the purpose of
obstructing business shall have their votes
counted i'll the affirmative.
