were the City of Dublin Steam
packet Company; Dublin, Wicklow
and Wexford Railway Company;
Great Southern and Western Rail-
way Company; Directors Southern
Hotel Company; Cork, Bandon and
South Coast Railway Company;
Waterford, Limerick and Western
Railway Company; Shannon De-
velopment Company. Mr.. J. w.
Payne Sheares, D. L., of the Cork
and Bandon Railway Company, pri-
vately entertained the visitors, and
Mr.. T.. H. Cleeve, High Sheriff of
Limerick, also gave a banquet in
their honor.
Everywhere the facilities for trav-
Ell, accommodations for their conf
fort and pleasure, their reception
and treatment by the people, have
undeceived them. They were out
spoken through the press in their
admiration of the country and the
people, and astonished at the won
derful progress made in the build
ing and opening up of railways,
steamboat lines and carriageways;
the thriving cities and towns; the
character, intelligence and cleanli-
ness of the people-all so different
from what they had believed of
Ireland and the Irish.
Commenting on the result of the
tour, the Irish Independent says:
"What Ireland suffers most from
is not any want of knowledge of its
scenic attractions, but from a be-
lief which still exists abroad that
travelling facilities and hotel accom-
mediation are not up to the mark.
Whatever time this impression was
justified, it certainly is so no longer.
The visitors who come among us
will find ample proof of this every
where. The railway accommoda-
ton as regards speed, comfort and
cheapuess can compare favorably
with that obtainable across the
channel. During the past decade
great improvements have taken
place. These improvements are
made all the more complete through
the opening up of steamship and
car routes through some of the most
picturesque parts of Ireland. What
is true of the railways is also true
of the hotels. On all the estab
lished routes the hotels are quite
up-to-date, and for the accommo-
dation given the charge can not be
regarded as anything else than rea-
sonable and moderate. When these
facts respecting the travelling facili-
ties and the hotel accommodation
are better known abroad a very i'm
portant development of the tourist
traffic will result. The present
visit from England will help materi-
ally to dispel the false notions which
still exist among strangers. Another
effect it will have is that the cross
channel trip in one of the splendid
new boats of the Dublin Steam
Packet Company will show that the
Irish sea can no longer be regarded
in the light of a hindrance to the
tourist traffic of Ireland"
