DISEASE FROM "swEAT SHOPS"
Rigid Inspection to be Made In CHI
cugo by Health Officers.

CHICAGO, May l1.-By the concerted ac-
ton of the health officers of Illinois, Ohio.
Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana, small
pox Is to be stamped out of Chicago and the
west Within a few days, not later than
Monday, extra physicians and extra inspec-
tors will attack the plague in the sweat
shop districts. This was decided upon at a
conference Of the health officers, Dr. Rey-
olds and a committee of wholesale clothing
manufacturers. The immense wholesale
clothing interests. recognizing the need of
prompt action. will pay the bill They de-
clare emphatically that no infected clothing
has been sent from the city, and under the
rev conditions such a thing will be i'm
possible.
Those present were Health Commissioner
of the Illinois board of health Secretary II.
b. Barker of the Michigan board, c. n.
Metcalf and DIR. ID. C. Ramsey OF the In
diana board, Secretary J. T. Ref of Wis
consin, Secretary Probst of the Ohio board.
Surgeon John b. Hamilton of the marine
hospital and Mrs. Florence Kelly, state fac
tory inspector.
The conference was called by the commits
sioners of the several states, who threat
ened to forbid the entrance into their states
of manufactured textile garments. After
accommodating among the sweat shops and
tenement houses, they were convinced that
1t was not policy to permit clothing to be
shipped out of the city much longer Thus
far there is no evidence that any infected
garments have been placed on the market.
since the clothing manufacturers them
selves have taken every precaution to pro-
tect their business, and yesterday they
readily agreed to adopt any measure that
would drive the contagion out of the city,
and they cheerfully agreed to pay the ex-
pense Of a daily inspection OF the tenement
houses and sweat shops.

TO CLOSE THE BREACH.
Trying to Bring Harmony Into the
Irish Party.

LIVERPOOL, May 1.-THE Irish League
of Great Britain will hold a convention
here tomorrow. There will be a demonstra-
ton on Sunday and a banquet on Monday.
A member outlining the objects of the
gathering, explained that the Irish Nation
al League OF Great Britain was, In his
opinion. similar to the Irish National Fed
Grafton of America, and consists "of Irish
exiles who have played an important role
In Irish politics during the past fifteen
years" He added that. in his view,' "the
members of the Irish National League Of
Great Britain are better trained in the in
tricacies of English politics and perhaps
more ardently nationalist than the freshmen
at home. By electing Chas Stewart Par
nell president in 1876, instead of Mr.. Isaac
Butt, the members gave the former the
first great advantage of his political career
policy When the split came their unani-
nous vote against Mr.. Parnell did much to
break his power
In conclusion, the Associated Press in
formant said that the members now meet
at the time of great crisis and amidst the
struggle going on between the Healyites and
the majority Of the party. Mr. Justin Nc
earthly, MP, Mr.. Michael Davitt Mr.
John Dillon, MP, and other leaders will
attend the convention and will endeavor to
heal the breach existing between them and
the Healyites. The result will have an i'm
portant effect upon the future Irish policy.
1t is expected that T. p. OConnor, MP.
who has been president Of the league
since lSS2, but who, latterly, has been at
tackled in the Healyite organ, the Irish
Catholic. will be reelected and that the
policy of the majority will be reaffirmed by
an Overwhelming majority.
Nevertheless there is much anxiety as to
the result.
