tory over the French at La Hogue in
1892, received a pension of 6 1000, and
was knighted; but the systems of re-
ward for military service, of which
the grant to Lord Roberts is the
latest instance, got its great start
under William III. and Anne, when
John Churchill was promoted to the
dukedom of Marlborough, and re-
ceived at first an annual and later a
perpetual pension of 5000 a year.
Nelson was created a baron in the

tie of the Nile; and a pension for
three lives went with the peerage.
After his Copenhagen victory of 1901
Baron Nelson was promotsd Yiscount.
When he died at Trafalgar his broth

Hon. Arthur Wellesley, younger son

attached to the dignity, and an estate
as well. Wellington and Marlborough
received higher rewards than any

For his share in suppressing the Sc

WANT TO USE FORCE.
Clan-na-Gaels Advocate Attempt to
Free Ireland.
Ready to Strike "a Blow Against Great
BFitain-SOme Irish Americans
Are Not in Sympathy with
the Movement.

Plans to strike a formidable blow
at the British government by means
of physical force" are said to be on
foot among the Irish secret societies
in New York and elsewhere. In what
direction the blow is to be struck
and at what time, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer, is known only TO few Of
the leaders in this country, but it is
said when positive action is taken it
will be in such a fOrcble manner and
at such a vulnerable point that sue
cess will be altogether likely. In the
meantime those who are interested
in the movement are observing the
greatest secrecy on the subject.
The movement, it is said, COM
menced at the time that Miss Maud
Come, the Irish Joan of Are, and
Maj. Mcbride, who fought with the
Beers against the English in South
Africa, visited the United States a
few months ago.
They received an ovation every
where from Irishmen, and particular
ly in the west, where Irish sympa-
thies are more easily stirred against
England than in the east. Both Miss
Come and Maj. Mcbride preached
the use of force in no uncertain
terms and stirred Irish feeling to a
high pitch. Members of the Gamma
Gael were foremost in indorsing the
urgings of the young Irish woman
and the Irish Boer major that phys
ical force be employed in attacking
the British government. 1t is now
reported that a fund is being raised
in this country for the purpose OF
carrying out the plans of the party,
and that while many thousands Of
dollars have been raised. still much
more is needed before they can be
put into operation.
Leaders in the movement are much
afraid OF spies, and every precau-
The Washington bee., 1901-08-24

tion is taken to guard against them.
The avowed intention of the Clan-na-
Gael society some time ago to aban-
don parliamentary agitation caused
an open rupture among the Irish So
cieties of New York, the body known
as the United Irish league taking no
pains to conceal its aRtagonism to
the Clan-Ra-Gael, and some of its
speakers denounced the physical
force men in vigorous language. Be
fore Miss Comes visit the various
Irish societies were united under the
name of the United Irish Society of
New York and Vicinity, but ClaR-na-
Gael men were in the majority, and
when the sentiments of the physical
force men began TO be manifested
the other societies withdrew their
delegates
Mai. Mcbride went to England re-
Gently for the purpose of cOnferring
with Irishmen there who favor
physical-force movement. James f.
Eagan, a released political prisoner,
arrived here frsm England at about
the same time, intrusted with a Sc
eret mission by Irish leaders of the
Clan-na-Gael and who are desirous OF
taking fOrcible steps against the Eng
Hsh government.
Michael Davitt, the Irish agitator,
who year ago resigned his seat
in the British parliament as a pro-
test against the British Invason of
the South African republic, has ar

parliament. AS we said when Baron
Roberts of Kandahar was promoted
by Queen Victoria to be an earl, the
value of his services in South Africa
