"Wli1at seems 10 me to be most ex-
traordtnary proceeding in this great
nation Of ours Is advertised to take

New York. May 2.-The following
will be published tomorrow: A move
ment has been set on foot Ito hold a
convention of Irish-Amerlcan in one
of the large cities at an early date,
A number of gentlemen who have
been prominent in the Irish cause,
and who are of various schools OF po-
litical thought, have come to the con-
clus.on that the time has come for
Irish Americans to iDaugurate q new
and bolder policy in the interest of
Irish independence. The agitation
known as the Parnell Parliamentary
movement, as far as Irish nationality
Is concerned, Is dead. The home rule
question has been ruled out of prac-
teal British politics by the British
people. The new movement abides by
the decision, so far as the further
prosecution Of THE parliamentary agi-
tation is concerned; but is determined
to kesp the flag of irish independence
still flying and will devote itself to
forcing the Irish question upon the
attention Of the world in such a man
ner as will Inevitably compel the set
tlement more satisfactory to Ireland
THAN any heretofore offered by any
British parity. Gladstone said In mov-
ing his home rule bill: IF therefore
the resistance to this measure were to
he better, obstinate and prolonged, the
question of repeal might become an
International one" The promoters Of
the new movement have been driven to
adopt the alternative suggested by
Gladstone. and will try 10 make the
demands of Ireland the subject for
international consideration
