Hiberninns Say n Type of Irishmen
that Does Not Exist Is Exploited

NEW YORK. May 6.-James p. Bree.
national secretary of the Ancient Order of
Hibernians. has confirmed, according TO a
dispatch 10 the World from New Haven,
Conn. the reports that an organized effort
is being made by Irish societies to discoun-
tenance caricatures OF the Irish race on the
stage and in the papers. Said Mr.. Bree:
The agitation is more for the education
or the people than a movement against
theatrical managers. actors and publishers.
We must not be considered oversensitive in
the matter. What we object TO is such
characterizations as exploit the worst feat
ures OF the race and make capital OF the
failings OF human nature and ascrtbe them
wholly 10 type Of Irishman which does
not exist"

fool him. Stembel denied il and offered TO
write a check for Sl75 Herman refused to
accept, saying that he wanted the full
thousand. Stembel then said that Herman
might have the $40 and could get the re-
naming SS25 when the draft arrived Her
man at last gave in 10 this proposition.

II 10 him. AS Herman put the check IN his
pocket Detective Colbert dashed out from

found the check. Then they took Herman
TO the police station.

story was true, except that he had not
threatened him with a revolver. lie aiSo

mand on Stembel and said she had done
nothing wrong The detectives arrested
