lRlSHMEN PLAN FOR
DEVLIN'S VISIT.
Committees Appointed to Secure
Hall and Interest the People.

Committees Appointed to Secure
Hall and Interest the People.
An enthusiastic meeting was held in
Labor Hall yesterday morning to plar
for the expected visit of Hon. Joseph
Devlin, member of Parliament from
North Kilkenny, and the representative
in this country of the United Irish
League, who will visit this May T. for
the purpose of discussing the condi-
lions that prevail in Ireland at pres
ent, and for the further purpose OF
forming in Savannah a branch of the
United Irish League of America.
The meeting was called by Capt. NJ
j. Doyle and Mr.. d. ]. Charlton, who
have been in charge of the arrange
mentS for Mr.. Devlin's trip to Savau-
nah. About twenty-five gentlemen
were present by special invitation, and
the work of organizing committees to
attend to the various details of the
work was at once begun. Mr.. William
kehoe was elected temporary chair
man, then a permanent organization
was formed with Capt. M. j. Doyle,
chairman; Mr.. d. j. Charlton, secre-
tary and Mr.. ]. J. Powers, treasurer.
A committee to arrange for a hall in
which Mr.. Devlin may deliver his ad-
dress, and also to arrange for tickets
of admission, was appointed as fol-
lows: Mr.. j. j. Horrigan, Mr.. E. j.
Kennedy, Mr.. John J. stafford, Mr.
j. j. Powers and Mr.. ]. L. Murphy.
Another committee to secure the CO.
operation of those interested in MIR.
Devlin and the cause he represents,
who, by the way, are not confined en-
urely to Irishmen and those of Irish
extraction, was appointed as follows:
Mr.. William Kehoe, Mr.. James Nc
Grath, Mr.. John Rourke, MIR. E. j.
Kennedy, Mr.. William Bohan, Mr.
Richard Wickham, Mr.. E. J. Whalen
and Mr.. T. F. McDonough.
Both these committees were appoint
ed with power to act and are expect
ed to increase their membership as
may be found necessary or convenient.
Ihey will begin their plans at once,
IN time to make a report to another
meeting of Irishmen and those of Irish
descent that it is planned to hold in
Labor Hall Thursday night.
Among the others present at the
meeting, in addition to the members of
the committees, were: Messrs. Will
liam P. Bowling, P. H. Cotton, H A
McAvoy, P. O'Connor, P. H. Nugent
and t. H. O'Donovan. To show the in
terest in the Irish cause that is being
shown throughout the South, letters
were read from Secretary O'Callaghan
of Boston, of the United Irish League
of America, and ex-Mayor Fitzpatrick
of New Orleans, who is in charge of
Mr.. Devlin's Southern trip.
Those in charge of the arrangements
are very well satisfied with the inter-
est that thus far has been shown in
the plans for Mr.. Devlin's visit to Sa-
vhn1ah, and think from the outlook
that a large meeting will be the re-
suit of their efforts, and that a pros
porous branch of the league will be
established here without trouble

1905!
The Atlanta post is back in line, and
| along with the other posts in Georgia,
will pull for Savannah for the conven-
ton two years from now. All differ
ences have been settled. and it is now
a case of Savannah in 1905.
When the state board of directors
was elected at the recent T. p. A. con-
vention, in Savannah, one of its first
official acts was directed to an adj
justment of the breach occasioned by
the seeming withdrawal of Post r of
Atlanta. At a meeting of the direc-
tors at headquarters in this city on
Friday it was decided to send a COM
mittee to Atlanta for the purpose of
ascertaining more definite details as to
the grievances complained of. This
committee was further supplemented
by State President Isaacs and National
Secretary LeBaume, who came from St.
Louis, the national headquarters, for
the purpose.
This committee met in Atlanta Sat-
urday, and at a meeting of Post B
held in the Piedmont Hotel all mat
ters were thoroughly discussed, and an
amicabe agreement arrived at. Post
B not only voted unanimously to come
into the ranks again, but likewise
gave an informal banquet to the COM
mittee, after the meeting, which con-
Guided with a veritable love feast
Post B also adopted resolutions in
dorsing and agreed to work for Sa-
vannah for the national T. p. A. con-
vention in 1905. Chairman Moorehouse
returned from Atlanta last night and
the state directors in the city all feel
elated at the successful results of their
efforts
This "burying of the Ratchet will

National Secretary L. T. LeBaume
of st. Louis will arrive in the city this
morning, and will be entertained by
the state directors of Georgia: Mr..
LeBaume has been national secretary
of the T. p. A. since it's organization,
fifteen years ago. He handles all funds
al LaorNc tn af
$4,000 members in the United States.
Mr.. LeBaume was present at the
meeting in Atlanta Saturday when
Post B was brought back into line.
He comes to Savannah for the purpose
of comforting with those in a position
to give needed information as to Sa-
vannah's ability to handle the national
convention in 1905 and toward which
he is ready to throw his influence. Mr..
LeBaume will be given the usual hos
pitable treatment extended by Sa-
vannahians on such occasions.

The Casino at Thunderbot looked
like a deserted village, and the other
resorts looked like a bargain counter
after the first days sale. At the Ca

special concert, but there were few to
hear it. A majority of the few dined
with Manager Nelson and enjoyed
themselves hughly.
Even the street railway officials fall

the others were in the vicinity of Lau-

cars, prepared to handle the large
crowds that attended the Memorial

street railway company did not lose
much by the failure of it's patrons to
put in an appearance at the resorts.

UNWILLING OF THE MEMORIAL
With Imposing Ceremonies in Ian.
rel Grove,

Inc most interesting exercises at
Laurel Grove were those attending the
unwilling of the memorial in the Con
federate Veterans Association lot. The
ceremonies were most imposing, the
military being lined up in front of the
lot in deep file, while about the memo
rial on every side great crowds watch
ed the exercises.
The memorial address was made nv
j. r. Saussy, Esq, who was introduced
by President l.. G. Young of the c. V.
A.. as one whom every veteran knew
but to love, and was a finished, able
and eloquent effort. The address was
preceded by a prayer by Rev. Father
r. F. Kennedy, in which he invoked
the blessing of Almighty God on the
exercises. Following Mr.. Saussy's ad-
dress the memorial was unveiled by
Miss Elizabeth McLaws, assisted by
Misses Miriam Morgan and Annie
Dreese.
AS the beautiful white memorial was
uncovered, it was the cynosure of all
eyes. The main body of the memorial
consisting of large granite block, is
surmounted by a 32-pound Howard
gun, pointing toward the west. On
each side appears a neatly executed in
scription, Confederate Veterans AS
ISOLATION, Savannah. Ga" inscribed in
circle, in the center of which is a
flag.
Directly after the unwilling the Chat
ham Artillery fired d salute of eleven
guns. The exercises were concluded
with the sounding of taps by Capt. w.
N. Nichols.
DraPed I'm an Historic Flag.
The battle flag which draped the mon
ument was one from the headquarters
of Gen. Polk, who was killed in the
battle of Lost Mountain. The old bat
tie flag, which was placed on the me-
mortal after the unwilling, is the orig
inal battle flag of the First Volunteer
Georgia Regiment. In the battle OF
Atlanta, July %, 1864, when Gen. Mer-
GERS brigade supported Gen. Clai-
borne's brigade in a charge upon three
lines of works, every member of the
| color guard was either killed or wound
ed. Afterwards Gen. Claiborne pre-
scented each regiment of his brigade
with his own battle flag. 1t being dis
tinctive by its blue BACKGROUND and
white center. and it was the one which
was placed on the memorial that was
presented by Gen. Claiborne.
Mr.. saussy's Address.
me uiost ADEQUATE way TO express
the feeling with which Mr.. Saussy's
address was received. is to quote one
old veteran who. at its conclusion, call
ed to Mr.. Saussy: II wanted to cheer
you so bad ! didn't know what to do. "
Following is the address in full:
