NOT CURIOUS" AT ALL.

The leading weekly papers re-ccho the
opinions expressed by the daily papers
on the election of Mr.. Mckinley to the
American Presidency. The ST. James
Budget under the caption of "a Curious
Allegation" publishes II letter from an
American. who declares that the true
inwardncsS of the defeat of Bryan was
the use of money to turn the farmer vote
of the central West. The writer states
that the insurance companies owning
mortgages ON farms in Iowa, Indiana
Illinois and neighboring States directed
their agents to see every farmer whose
lands We're mortgaged ana to offer to
them, if Mckinley should be elected, n
five years extension of the mortgage at
Il low rate Of interest. This Plan sue
ceeded and Mr.. Bryan, who otherwise
would have been elected. was defeated
Continuing, the American says that the
loss of interest to the companies would
be great, but they expect to sell here q
mass of deprecated securities OH the
boom from which London is bene-
fitting.

Especial London Letter,

London. Nov. THE everlasting Irish
question is coming UP in an acute form,
through the old and too familiar occur
renee OF an Irish famine. The Bishop OF
kaphoc. i'll recent appeal for subscriD-
lions in aid of the Irish party fund
spoke of the bleak prospects before the
agricultural population as operating
against the fund. The Bishop hardly
seems to have realized how desperate
III" situation Is. The correspondent of
mo Manchester Guardian, one Of the
most trustworthy and least sensational
papers in England, declares that no
Such appalling prospect has presented
itself during the present generation
Concurrng reports show that the pro
lonGed and continuous rains of the au-
tunn nave ruined the crops from north
to south. The rich lower lands have
been Hooded for weeks at a time, when
lhe harvest ought to have been pro-
cccdlnS. Stacked corn and hay stacks
nave been submerged and potatoes ale
rottinE i'm the fields. In the poorer ELL
lands the small farmer and cctter popu-
| iatlon are again face to face with one
OF those failures of the potato crop
when has too often brought the utter
| most horrors of starvation ana famine
| ana disease among them.
| GONEItNMENT DOES NOTHING.
AS usual the Government Is doing
nothing. The Irish Secrctary's tour In
| the west and northwest occurred be-
| iorc the bad weather set in ard Mt q
| time when little could be predicted of
the harvcsts. Since then he has ,.o- aim
ed reports from official sources from
| landlord SourccS-which can only he de-
| Scribcd as misleading. The farmers on
! many OF the large estates have appriscd
| their landlords agents that no rent can
| be paid this year because no rent has
| been earned. But the landlords have
entered into Il combination for whole
| sale pressure or the tenants Using
| their utmost privileges under the land
act they are applying for cjcctment de-
| crceS by the thousand. and an eviction
campaign, such rs has rarely ever been
| witnessed In Ireland. Is now in progress
| in many districts. AS soon as the yigors
| of winter sets in the demand for relief
will be clamorous. The Government will
| be compelled to Intervene before Parlia-
| ment opens, or face an accusation OF
reckless indifference to suffering such as
| ought to ovcrwhcm any English Min
| istry. With this famine impending.
! combined with the revelations of the
| Foreign Relations Commission, showing
| how Ireland Is annually bled of millions
| Of money To the advantage of Great Bri-
tain, ii will be no wonder if Irish discon-
| tent assumes n more active form than
| mere jabbcr over legislation for Home

+ ~, . striks, h.nd, .-..>.
The big sympathetic strike movement
In Cleveland, which has been threatened
ever since the strike at the Brown COM
psny's, works began eleven weeks ago,
was inaugurated Monday morning.
Eighty-seven men, employed by the Van
Wagner & Williams company. hardware
manufacturers, laid down their tools and
walked out OF the works. The men laid
their. only grievance was their sympathy
for the Brown Hosting Company's men,
and that employees Of other concerns
would soon follow their lead. Commit
tees were sent out to other factories along
the lake shore to notify the men that
they were called out on strike. One or
the leaders Of the Van Wagner strikers
said that they would demand Of Mayor
McKisson that the non-unionists be dis
armed, and IL this was refused, the strik-
ers would arm themselves and compel the
non-unionists to give up their weaponssby
force, IL necessary. One hundred and M
ty non-union men went to work ut the
Brown hosting works in the morning.
They were guarded by four companies OF
militia and large force of police. A big
crowd OF union rlen were present, but no
outbreak occurred. The police and sol
diers bept the strikers moving, and would
not permit them to stand in one place
more than few minutes.
