WILL STOP THE PARADE
II the First Regiment, Irish Volunteer
Carries Firearms.

IL the First Regiment. Irish Volunteers,
Carries Firearms.
NEW YORK, May 22.-The First regi-
ment, Irish volunteers, the military en-
bodiment of the Clan-na Gael, will in all
probability not parade with arms on Dec
grafton Day. Its commanding officer,
Colonel Moran, formerly of the Sixty
ninth regiment, had obtained permit
from Acting Chief Of Police Cortright,
which gave the regiment, as he supposed,
the right to parade in all the accoutre-
ments Of war. The police board had re
ceived letter from General Fitzgerald,
commanding the First brigade of the Ma
tional guard of the state of New York,
which called attention to the fact that, as
the Irish regiment was not a. recognized
military organization, Its, parade with
firearms would be violation of the mill
tary code.
Commissioner Andrews of the police
board, to whom, as "A military man, the
case was referred, said that as the regi
ment did not belong to the national
guard, 1t did not have the right to parade
with firearms. Acting Chief Cortrighi
says that IL the regiment attempts to pa
rade with firearms he will stop It, He ex
poets 1t to appear without muskets. Th'
Irish regiment, meanwhile, Is making th'
| most active preparations for appearing n
| the parade with all OF Its accoutrements.
