Alfred holland Martin. National Deputy Of
the American Protective League, made n speech
at Prohibition Park, staten Island, yesterday
afternoon in reply To an address delivered at the
same place two weeks by DIR. Edward McGlynn.
At the close Of DR.. McGlynn's address, which
was an arraignmcnt Of the principles of the a.
p A., which are practically the same as those OF
the A. =. L., Mr.. Martin jumped on the stage,
after declaring that DR.. McGlynn was entirely
wrong on the question, and asked permission OF
DIR. I. X. Funk, who presided, to reply to the
Catholic speakers address.
About two thousand people were at Prohibit
tion Park to listen to Mr.. Martin yesterday,
most Of them from the surrounding neighbour
hood. Mr.. Martin Is young man who has taken
charge Of the anti-Catholic movement on Staten
Island. He read his speech from manuscript.
Mr. Martin took up some OF DIR. McGlynn's
points. but the major part OF his speech con-
sisted of extracts from Papal encyclcals, the
"syllabus of Errors" and DEGREES Of Church
councils.
Mr.. Martin began by saying that he was born
in Ireland and reared In the Roman Catholic
Church "But, being n thorough student of his

MIR. Martin said the Roman Catholic Church
had gone to such lengths in seeking TO extend
its baneful influence as to alter the school his
tories USED in the public schools of Boston and
make these standard histories utter infamous
lies whenever questions relating To the Church
were treated.
He was very dramatic when he said this, and
after the applause had subsidized Mr.. Martin APP
pealed to irish Americans To cast OF their ALE
glance to the Pope and devote themselves unre-
servedly TO America and American civics.

again for three cheers for Martini" What's
