IRISH HOME RULE.

A Tremendous Mass Meeting of tho
Friends of the Measure Held in New
York.
New YORK, March 27.-Ir1sh home
rule received boom and very liberal
financial aid Sunday, when a tremen-
dous mass meeting, characterized by
tremendous eloquence and applause,
was held in the Academy of Music.
The assemblage was called by and
under the auspices of the National
Federation of America, which is now
engaged in extensive and thoroughly
organized efforts to further the home
rule measure in the imperial parlia-
ment The vast auditorium of the
academy, it's three balconies, its stage
and every available space for standing
room were occupied.
DIR. Adds Emmett, of this city, de-
scendant of Robert Emmett, opened
the meeting and introduced Judge Nor
gan j. O'Brien as the presiding officer.
Judge O'Brien delivered short address
showing the benefits of home rule in
Ireland, and then presented Congress-
man Burke Cochran, who was the prin-
cipal speaker of the evening.
A subscription list was started to aid
the home rule cause in parliament and
several thousand dollars were SUBJ
scribed at the meeting. The members
of the confederation want to raise $780,
600 to further the measure.

New YORK, March 24-The Allan
state line steamer Pomeranian, which
left this port March Is for Glasgow, ia
disabled ats sea The news was brought
to this city by the Red Star line steamer
Belgenland, Capt Ehof from Antwerp
Capt Ehoff says that he met the
Pomeranian at $3.50 a. IN. on the 2lst
inst in lat 41.50, long. So The Allan
state liner was discharging signals of
distress, and was about five miles to the
north when first seen. The course OF
the Belgenland was changed, and as
she drew near tho Pomeranian the lat.
ter hoisted three red lights, indicating,
~ am not under control"
The Belgenland steamed to within a
quarter of mile of her and the Pom
eranian followed up her original signals
with the information, "Have smashed
piston" and with the query, "Will you
stand by and tow me?"
To the latter the Belgenland replied
that she could not take her in tow. 1t
was blowing fierce northeasterly gale
ut the time and there was an ugly toss
to the sea. The Belgenland did not
tarry longer in the company of the dis
abled craft. When they parted COM
pany the Pomeranian was lying to with
a little head canvas set She was any
thing but steady in the heavy sea that
was rolling.
Capt. Ehoff says that his reason for
not towing the disabled vessel was that
the rules of his company forbid it. His
statement is ridiculed in shipping cir
cles
The Pomeranian was formerly the
Grecian Monarch. This was her first
eastward trip since she was struck by
hurricane on February 4, which result
ed in the killing of her captain and the
drowning of eleven of her passengers
and crew. Her commander on this trip
was Capt McCulloch, who was fyst Of
ficer of the vessel when the fatal storm
of February occurred. She is big,
stout vessel, and her agents here, Aus
tin, Baldwin 6 Co., of No. So Broad
way, say they have no fear for the
safety of the vessel.

Benjamin Folsom, Mrs. C1evelaud's
Cousin, to lie Retained In Onice-

gov, with $4,000 salary.

WARRINGTON, March 27.--Allen w.
Thurman, one of Ohios best-known
democrats is at the Ebbitt house. Mr..
Thurman continues to be a chip off the
"Old Roman" block, and is receiving
marked attention from Ohio democrats
and others who admire his distinguished
father. Mr. Thurman is seeking a con-
sulate. lie wants to be sent abroad,
he has called upon President Cleveland
and Secretary Gresham, and it is be-
believed he will get an appointment
just where he is to go has not yet been
fixed.
DIR. j. B. Schuller, of Columbus, who
has been here some days seeking the
Leipsic consulate, has gone home. II
Allen Thurman is provided for DIR.
Schuller will likely be left out in the
cold.
Baron De Andrada, special envoy
from Brazil to the United States, died
of paralysis Saturday.
Baron Andrada has been in this coun.
try since late in the fall, having been
sent here as one of the arbitrators from
Brazil in the Venezuelan boundary
treaty. The delay of Venezuela in
sending her arbitrators has postponed
Brazilian envoy has been spending his
time in social enjoyment at the capital.
He is the minister to Switzerland, but
was transferred just before coming to
America. He is alone, his wife and
family being in Berne, Switzerland,
awaiting his return.
II was announced officially Saturday
that Benjamin Folsom, who is Mrs.
Clevelands first cousin, is to be re-
tanned as consul at Sheffield, a posi-
ton worth about $4,000 a year. The
president is quoted as saying that
while he opposed to nepotism, he does
not believe in carrying anti-nepotism
to the extent of visiting the principle
upon the cousin of fellows wife.
Folsom was appointed consul to Shelf
field by President Cleveland in the early
part of his administration eight years
ago. He was retained in his position
by President Harrison out of personal
consideration for Mr.. Cleveland.
1t looks as though the suggestion
made by prominent democrat to the
president the other day in the matter
of filling the pension commissionership
would be followed. 1t is to leave the
commissionership vacant, and after APP
pointing deputy commissioners from
the democratic party, to assign one of
them to be acting commissioner, then
leave the Office in statu quo till con-
gress meets and passes a law transfer
ring the pension business to the war
department.
Judge Allen B. Morse, one-armed vet
eran of Michigan, is to be appointed con-
sui to Glasgow, Scotland. The emolu-
ments aggregate about S12 900 a year. He
was the democratic candidate for gov
ernor of Michigan last year, was can
didate for the vice-presidential nomin-
alton at Chicago last year and served a
term on the supreme bench of Michi-
gan, defeating Cooley, the eminent
jurist. The Appointment is regarded as
personal victory for Don M. Dickinson.

COMMISSIONER OF PENSIONS.
The President Using Care in the Selection

1ho Iresluent Using care In the Selection
of the Head of That Department.
WASHINGTON, d. c.. March 25.-The
president is proceeding with care and
deliberation in the selection of his COM
missioner of pensions 1t is considered
probable he will not choose his ap-
pointee from among the many names Of
public men that have been presented to
him, but is more likely TO take some
one from the ranks of business or pro-
fessional life, which combines the quail
tiles necessary to conduct the pension
bureau upon the plan which Mr. Cleve-
land has mapped out. Mr.. Cleveland
stated emphatically to Congressman
Enloe, who is in line with the presi-
dents policy about the bureau, that
mo demogogic politician will be ap-
pointed"
The pension bureau is to be conduct
ed upon a basis of business and in the
interest of an honest administration of
the pension laws.
Among the presidents callers Friday
were Senator John Sherman and Sena-
tor Teller. They came to make some
suggestions in regard to the compost

COLUMBUS, March 25.-Shortly after
l o'clock Saturday morning three pris-
oners escaped from the insane asylum
at the penitentiary.
They got away during the temporary
absence of their guard
He had gone to the front part of the
institution to report the number of in
mates in his department as shown by
the o'clock count. When he returned
three men were missing.
The men were Joseph Stafford, of
Cuyahoga county, serving ten years for
robbery; VIM. Graham, of Stark, doing
four years for the same offsnse, and
Harry Brennan, of Sandusky county,
doing five years for burglary and lar
ceny.
1t is supposed the guard left the asy-
lum door open, that the men were only
feigning insanity, and had secured
berths in the asylum for the purpose of
planning an escape. They got over the
walls
