Sir Wtlfred l.aurier in England took
him IN task for having attended meet
ingS in Ottawa at which Redmond,

The colonial secretary stated that he
viewed with chagrin this open support
OF Irish malcontent. Sir Wilfrid re.
sented this inference warmly and as
sured Mr Chamberlain where his
sympathes lay and of his determina-
ton to manifest them in his own
fashion. Then the secretary began to
lecture Mr.. Barton for having presided
at a home rule meeting in nSydney at
which Cardinal Moran denoun ed the

pointment that Australian Irishmen
had not gone to fight for the freedom
Of their oppressed countrymen instead
Of helping to throttle the republics OF
