SHAMROCK IS POPULAR
ENGLISHMEN As WELL As FRESHMEN
WEARING THE GREEN TODAY.
Unexpected Result of Queen VictOria's
Order-St. Patrfck's Day En-
b1ems I'm Demand.

LONDON, March 16.-The Prince and
Princess of Wales opened the sale organ
lied by the Irish Industries Association
at the Mansion House this afternoon.
Enormous crowds lined the streets and the
houses and stores displayed flags. Their
royal highnesses received an ovation. Lord
Mayor Newton and the sheriffs received
the royal party. Sprigs of shamrock were
presented to the visitors by Lady Aber-
deem. The Prince of Wales, in declaring
the sale open, expressed the deep interest
which he and the princess took in the well
fare of the Irish poor.
There are ample eloquent indications that
the Queens message about soldiers wear
ing the shamrock has been interpreted in a
way which her Majesty can scarcely have
expected, for ST. Patrick's day is going to
be celebrated here as a grand national fes-
tivity. Long ago ii was announced that the
Irish national flag would wave above the
Mansion House, but this also had, like the
Queens message, results which could
scarcely have been expected, for it gave the
idea all over the country to sport the green
flag. The result was that people are wan
dering about clamoring for Irish flags with
which to decorate their houses and are in
tensely disappointed to hear that all such
flags have been sold. Each train is bring
ing in crates of shamrock from Ireland. IL
is quite safe to predict that tomorrow all
British subjects will wear the shamrock in
honor of the gallant Irish soldiers at the
front, and that everywhere possible the
harp on the green ground will wave along
side the union jack and the national stand
ard. 1t will be a st. Patrick's day such as
has never been known before. A politician,
talking to-day, said it was hoped that oc-
currences tomorrow would do more to heal
all the hard sentiment which has existed
between Ireland and England than any of
the many past efforts made to bring about
better understanding.

Of Justice Barrett held that i'm any pre-

suit of their deliberations there were drawn

MUST BE UNION MADE
EVERYTHING CHICAGOANS USE.
FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE.
Unless Collins Bear the Label of Or.
Ganized Labor They VIII Find No
Resting Place in Cemeteries.

CHICAGO, March 16-The Times Herald
tomorrow will say: Unless a body goes
to its last resting place in union-made
coffin it will be refused burial in the ceme-
teries of Chicago and vicinity if the plans
of the labor unions to organize a grave dig
gers union are carried out Already they
have compelled the placing of the union
label on every cradle manufactured. and it
is the avowed object of the unions 10 union
ize everything from the cradle to the grave
inclusive. A committee has been appointed
by the woodworkers TO unionize the coffin
factories. They will begin with factory
on Carroll avenue. They will insist that
each casket bear the union label. which is
a metal plate with the words Union made
Amalgamated Woodworkers' Union of
America. large number of members of
the woodworkers' organization have been
employed in the making of collins but
heretofore there has been no movement to
compel the manufacturers to unionize their
factories. and so none of the caskets have
borne the union label. To enforce the use
of union collins the woodworkers. as soon
as they have unionzed the factories will
attempt to organize the grave diggers into
a union and have them refuse absolutely TO
inter a body unless it is encased in union
made casket. IL is estimated that there are
about $50 grave diggers employed i'm the
cemeteries of Chicago. and by organizing
them the labor unions feel that they could
control the situation
We already have the union label on all
cradles made, said Secretary john Lee, of
the woodworkers, and why should we not
nave union collins and union grave diggers?
1t Is to the interest of labor men RI have
every article used from the cradle IN the
grave union made. Other trades have
brought about the use of union under
wear. the drinking of union beer the smok-
ing OF union cigars, the consumption of
union bread. and why should we not union

me how i stood. 1 told the members that
] had never been consulted. Then they
asked what / would do. 1 told them that
TO enter without my consent would mean
war by the National League. They asked
me IL / would consider any peace terms.
/ said yes, on Fair business proposition.
Then they returned You can form your
own conclusions as to whether | Will hear

TO PUSH THE CONTEST
KENTUCKY REPUBLICANS AND
BROWN DEMOCRATS UNITED.
The Ex-Governor Retained as Chief
Counsel to PrisOners-Arraign ment
of Victims mt Frankfort.

LOUISVILLE. KY. March 16-As a re-
suit of a meeting held by number of
prominent citizens of Louisville. it is an
nounced that Ex-Governor John Young
Brown has accepted employment as chief
counsel for the men arrested for the muir
der OF the late William Goebel. This ac-
ton, it's promoters say is taken i'm order
that no innocent man may be convicted
through the agency of the 100000 reward
appropriated by the last Legislature. Ex-
Governor Brown will be chief counsel and
with him will be associated the Hon.
George Denny, of Lexington; w. G. p.
Breckenridge, of Lexington; ]. c. Sims.
of Bowling Green; A. Z. Wilson. of Louis
vile, and several others. These lawyers
have been instructed to push the cases to
an early trial and failing in that to insti-
tute habeas corpus in the State and federal
courts. At the meeting mentioned, reso-
lutions were adopted denouncing the as
sassination and urging earnest efforts to
detect and convict the murderer. The fear
is expressed that the 100000 appropriation
may result In the prosecution and convic-
ton of innocent persons for political ends.
The resolutions conclude:
''The money that may be subscribed is
not to be used for the purpose of shielding
any guilty man. 1t is not TO be used d.
rectly indirectly for the purpose of OBJ
structing justice, nor for promoting politi-
cal or partisan ends. 1t is to be used for
the single purpose of aiding the accused in
the employment of intelligent and fear
less counsel, in procuring the attendance
of witnesses and otherwise in securing TO
them a fair and impartial trial.
Following the adoption of the resolutions
a subscription was started. There was one
subscription for $1,000. several for $500 and
others for smaller sums. Captain John II.
feathers was named treasurer of the
fund. The names of the subscribers are
not made public.

LEXINGTON, KY, March 1.-THE cases
of Secretary of State Powers and Captain
Davis were again called to-day before Po-
lice Judge Riley. Judge George Denny, jr..
for the defense, asked for a rule against
Chief of Police John Med. Ross to show
cause why the prisoners were not in court
to answer. Judge Riley held that as he is
sued neither warrants nor mittimus in the
case, and as the prisoners had been in
charge of the sheriff and not of the police
neither was the chief responsible nor did
his court have jurisdiction. He therefore
ordered all records before him taken before
the. grand jury for investigation. The
grand jury questioned a few witnesses to-
day. and will make a searching investiga-
ton. The prisoners themselves probably
will be summoned
