ne Declines tn Assist IN Freeing Alleged
Dynamitards.
LONDON, June 2S-John Morley has re-
piled to an inquiry from an Independents
branch of the Irish National leagne as to
whether he would join in the work of try
ing to secure the release of certain men
imprisoned by the British government for
alleged completely in dynamite plots.
Morley said that he did not consider the
matter Of such vital Importance as to
raise at the present time the question of
freeing these prisoners.
A Barbarous Mode of Warfare.
@The dynamite mode of warfare" Nor
ley added, dis not only barbarous and de-
serving of stern punishment, but is mimi
cal to the strenuous efforts which men are
making to end the old system of Irish
government. When that is effected it will
be time to consider such clemency for the
dynamiters as the French showed to the
exiled communists"
In turn the Independent branch replied
10 Morley as follows: "You decision has
been received with surprise and dissatis-
faction"

THE WILL-O-THE-WISP.
Y. M. c. A.
An Important Meeting Of the
Directors Last Night.
Confidence Expressed by Some OF the
Members In the Future Work Of
the Association.

The board of directors of the Your z
Mems Christian Association met last
night and transacted much important
business, among it being the approval
of the report of the committee ap-
pointed to revise the constitution and
bylaws. Some of the changes made
are the reduction of the number of
directors from thirteen to ten, and
the increase of the membership fee
from $5 TO $6 per year, to take effect
at the beginning of the new year,
Nov. /. and students membership
from SO for the scholastic term to $5.
Other changes were made of less in
terest to the public, and which will,
it is thought, add much to the
efficiency of the association.
A full list of committees to arrange
for the State convention Oct. SO in
this city were appointed. A COM
mittee was appointed to select the
church in which the met tings of said
convention are to be held, also a
committee to nominate ten directors
to serve next year, to be elected at a
meeting of the members to he held
next Tuesday evening.
After discussing fully the financial
affairs of the association and making
arrangements to meet all obligations
promptly, the directors were called
upon to consider the resignation of
j. r.. Allen, on account of removal to
Louisville. The directors accepted
the resignation, with motion di.
recting the secretary to spread upon
the minutes an expression Of their
appl eciation of his long and faithful
service to the association aud their
sincere regret at being compelled to
drop him from their number.
The meeting last night was un.
doubtedly one of the best yet held by
this board, AID the confidence ex-
pressed by some of tue mem bers in
the future Of the woik was most
gratifying to those interested. ..~
