Cnu.es RelolcInr In New York.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2l.-The news of Ivo-
ry's release, owing to the abandonment Of
the prosecution by the English govern
ment, was received with rejoicing by Irish
Americans in this city. William Lyman,
president Of the Irish National alliance,
who sent. John f. Mcintyre, ex-assistant
district attorney of New York, 70 aid in
Ivorys defense and who also employed the
resident counsel, makes the following
statement:
From the very beginning / believed
that this whole matter was scheme of
the British home Office and its agent SCOT
land Yard The collapse of the Ivory case
indicates plainly TO me that Gallagher, Da-
ly and other prisoners would never have
been convicted had their friends stepped
out of the conventional and dared to make
"a proper defense The English authorities
were permitted 70 have their way. The
Irish National alliance determined to act
differently and defend Ivory TO the last
ditch. / believe that the presence of Mr..
Mcintyre, an American lawyer had all
to do with the abandonment of the prose
cution.
81 believe that the conduct of at least
one of the resident lawyers retained for
Ivory's defense is open to criticism. For
example, Edward Carson @. c.. endeavor-
ed TO induce Ivory to plead guilty. His ad-
vice to Ivory was that he would be found
guilty and sentenced to 20 years If he at
tempted to defend himself and that IL
would be better for him 10 plead guilty,
even compromising on plea of being 4
Fenian and having been entrapped by dy-
namiters. He was assured that If he did
so plead he might expect not more than d
five years sentence, and possibly the pris
ON doors would be opened TO him provided
he left the country in "A hours Ivory
would not so plead, upon the advice Oi
friends, and thereupon Carson threw NJ
his brief
Mr.. J. f. Taylor, another of the resi-
dent counsel, has done qdmirably, anC
our opinion Of Mr. Mcintyre will be shown
in the future. The scheme to have Ivor,
plead guilty went SO far as to take tn,
form of a letter to his friends in this coun
try urging them to advise the prisoner b,
cable to so plead. II was the apparent ur
gency to dispose of the case in a way favor
able to the government that determined
Ivory's friends to hasten the departure o
Mr. Mcintyre, and the public has seen tn
sequel An assured conviction, as expresse,
by Mr.. Carson, turned into n complete col
lapse, and in a ridiculously short time

PACIFIC RAILROAD DEBTS.
Attorney General Harmon In Conference
with an Underwriting Syndicate.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2l.-Attorney General
Harmon has arrived in the city to consult
with the government directors, the reor-
ganization committee and the underwrit
ing syndicate of the Union Pacific Rail
way company regarding the adjustment OF
the debt Of SA5, 600, 900 due the govern.
mcnt. An underwriting syndicate had
been organized among the bankers and
trust companies with a view to offering
the government $40, 600, 600 for an assign.
ment of its debt against the Union Pacific.
1t is believed in Wall street that the Offer
has been made, but definite information
was denied by those interested in Union
Pacific affairs. No foreclosure proceedings
win be instituted, it is stated, until the
attorney general is satisfied that the inter
ests Of the government viii be protected
in the event of a sale of the road, and his
visit to this city is for the purpose of max
ing inquiries.
The offer Of the syndicate is the only re
sponse that the government has yet re.
ceived The syndicate will probably include
most of the leading bankers in Wall street,
and it is understood that a large part OF
the money required will be brought from
Europe
On Friday the government directors will
meet for the purpose, it Is said, of recon-.
mending a plan of foreclosure TO the ad-
ministratiOn.

Nost-Tucker Contest Debated In House.
WASHINGTON, Jan 2i-Secretary Oh
ney's argument before the senate commit
tee on foreign relations seems not to have
removed the objections which have been
raised to the wording OF the treaty of ar
bitration with Great Britain. The secre-
tary is positive that no amendment is
needed and that every interest Of the
United States has been guarded TO the fun
est extent He would not admit the neces-
sity of particularizing more explicitly the
Monroe doctrine or the Nicaragua canal
nor would he consent that there should be
any change of umpires.
The Monroe doctrine the Nicaragua ca.
nal and King Oscar of Sweden We're the ON
ly points touched upon In the conference.
The correspondence between the secre-
tary and Sir Julian paunccfote was not al
luded To.
Secretary Olney tried to convince the
committee that the draft already agreed
upon should be ratified without change,
but his suggestions were coldly received.
Another meeting will be held ON Wednes-
day by the committee, when the subject
will be canyassed with greater deliberation
than has yet been possible. Secretary Oh
ney viii not be invited TO appear again.
1t is quite probable that the treaty will
not be ratified as it stands. There will
most likely be some provisions inserted
with regard To the Monroe doctrine, and
il is possible that King Oscar of Sweden
will not he named when the document is
returned to the state department
There is "A movement To have the treaty
discussed in open session after II has been
reported from the committee. 1t is be-
lieved that nothing can be gained by a se-
cret debate where the subject Is alre,iy
so generally understood.
The question has arisen whether, In the
event of amendment as seems likely, the
treaty will have TO he sent to Great Britain
or the British ambassador can expedite
matters by using the cable to advise with
his government
The prospect Of action before the close
/ of the present congress seems TO have inn
! proved, but this does not necessarily mean
ratification i'm that time. If the assurances
of Great Britain, presented through Sir
/ Julian Pauncefote, that neither the Mon
roe doctrine nor the Nicaragua canal is tc
be interfered with are sincere, it is hoped
that the point Of the senate for putting
these exceptions in the bond of agreement
will be accepted by the other side In that
way complete understanding will b,
reached, and the treaty will be ratified

THAT GIGAN rIc STEAL.

The sale Of the Union Pacific railroad, at the
present outlook, will complete the biggest steal
and infamy of the ages The government has
been swindled and used from the beginning
Corrupt leaders in congress were in the pay of
the U. p company and concession after con.
cession was got through congress. The sale Of
November seems likely to go through as
agreed, and if so, it will be another credit
Mobilierscandal which startled the country in
1873.
1t is in the power of the president to stop
this sale and prevent the villainy But will he
do iH Has he the back bone2 We will see.
The road was built with money got from the
sale of United States bonds, loaned to the COM
pany by the act of 1862 The security was a
first mortgage on the road and property, the
latter consisting the right of way and ten
thousand square miles of land. The amount
of bonds loaned was $4,000 a mile till the
ascent of the mountains began, $500 a mile
over the mountainous region and S32 600 from
the western base to where it met the Central
Pacific, which got the same terms from Cali.
fOrna eastward
1t is said these subsidies more than built the
road. Had congress not given away the fist
mortgage lien the seventy million debt would
be all right now. But in 1864, under the
management Of Oakes Ames and his associates
managed to get an act through congress allow.
ing the government to take asecond mortgage,
thus allowing the company to borrow on their
own bonds to an amount equal to the govern
mcnt subsidy. There was no trouble then in
getting this away with. This enabled the
railroad projectors to become millionaires.
The scheme now is to sell the road under a
| foreclosure of the first mortgage, and the
government will come in after the first mort.
gage bonds are paid. The president could
order an appeal from the order of sale and
take steps to protect the people. 1t is
understood that J. Picrpont Morgan, the
great banker New York and London, viii. bid
enough so the government will lose only some
twenty millions (S2O, 600, ,OOO).
The stock of the road has been selling in the
| stock market at over S21 share showing It's
value after. paying the Indebtedness. Thi.
shows that there is no need of the government
losing a cent if the matter is attended to-
Wonder what Mark Hanna advises. He i.
| charged with being in the interest of the
Morgan syndicate, having got great help from
q csc magnates in the way of funds for last
v.ai'5 campaign. How it is this year has not
uauspired, but one can guess.

THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER.

The Manufacturer" of Philadelphia, in.
sists that the revival of business is hampered
by the money available for carrying on busi'
ness. Manufacturers are without money to
prosecute their respective undertakings, and
the banks. while having abundant supplies
for the movemen of corn and cotton, and for
stock speculation, call loans no more or less
shaky collateral, turn deaf ear to the solicita'
tions for help coming from "the manufacturer
aud legitimate business man, the employers OF
labor and distributors of money into the
channels of trade" The Manufacturer" as
its name indicates is the special organ of the
Manufacturers club, Of Philadelphia, and
doubtless represents the sentiments and views
of the members.
The article concludes by showing where the
Manufactures" stands politically, by saying
this state of things gives the free silver dema-
gogue powerful text on the inadequate
supply of money foT his harangues, and is apt
to put his hearers or his readers into Iecep-
tive mood for false doctrines" What it does
do is to confirm the position taken by the
Democratic party, that the supply of money
cannot under gold recommendation, and is
not intended to be, adequate, adequate to
legitimate business wants.

THE BUSINESS MEMS movEMENT

So called, is most pitifulanair not to say con-
tcmptible. 1t secured the address signed by a
half dozen of Canton's citizens, as their pro-
duction, was got up by the political knaves at
headquarters and sent out over the state to be
signed and published as it was in Canton.
This specimen of duplicity and deception is
unworthy citizens claiming to be honorable
men. And to think Of business men" allow
ing themselves to be 50 used by Mark Hanna
and his co.triCksters. Is it not ptiful? Such
work is in line with the manipulation of the
COXey convention which drew from Dick 1l8
checks.
Business men should profit by and learn
from experience. Declining values since 1873,
all under protection, have sent tens of thou.
sands of business men to the wall, and the
thing is not yet ended, This prosperity these
foolish men talk about they attribute to the
Dingley tariff, all wretched delusion. They
think, for example, the Dingley law raised the
price Of wheat, wool, etc. Under the McKin-
ley law Of 1890, however, wool fell in price.

they lost their reason? Are they not yet
satisfied with British gold standard and con-
traction? Are they such fools as to suppose
that prosperity will come by increasing taxa
ton, and so shaped that few can and will
rob the rest? Remember if some get more,
others get less. Business men should have
business sense.
