markable Gathering at Dublin

Dublin, April 17.-By unanimous
vote the Irish national convention
which met here accepted in principle,
the Irish land bill introduced in the
house of commons by Wyndham, chief
secretary for Ireland, and entrusted
to John Redmond and his party the
task of securing in the house of COM
mons that serious amendment in va
rious points of vital Importance"
which the national convention may
consider essential. The convention will
outline the shape that the amendments
should take, and Lord Dunrayen, Lord
Mayo. Captain Shawe-Tay:or, John
Redmond, William O'Brien and L. W..
Russell are likely to meet at a round
table conference TO discuss the land
lord and tenant opinions on the land
bill and try to arrive at a common
basis of parliamentary action.
Features That Do Not Suit.
The proceedings at the convention
revealed discomfort with various feat
ures of the BILL but nothing SO seri-
Gus as to indicate a danger of its
ultimate rejection. Even Michael Da-
witt, who had an opportunity of divid-
ing the delegates into two bitterly OPP
posing camps. and who amidst dramat-
ic excitement subordinated his own
views, pledged himself to abide by the
verdict. John Redmond and William
O'Brien triumphed over all objections;
indeed, the DIRECTORS save Michael Da-
witt, were scarcely given hearing by
the delegates.
Was q Representative Gathering.
Every available seat in the round
room of the Mansion House was taken
by the delegates, who surged up the
aisles in a solid mass and Oyerfi0wed
the surrounding rooms. For six hours
without a break the delegates sat or
stood listening to the speeches of their
leaders. Not for many day has such
a representative gathering been seen
in Dublin. Irish wit and eloquence
lived up to its reputation. Speaker
after speaker brought the audience to
that pitch of enthusiasm where hats
were thrown up and men stood upon
the chairs yelling with delight.

Postmaster General Payne dictated
the following statement: These cases
were called to the attention Of the
cabinet because they involved officers
of the army and navy, and at the re-
quest of the attorney general the secre-
tary Of the navy and the postmaster
general, who were about to visit Porto
Rico, were asked to make a personal
investigation into the facts of the case.
1T seems that certain officers had
brought to San Juan articles for per.
sOnal use which were subject to GUS
toms duties, especially cigars and
some liquors, and it was said that a
present of some of the cigars was
made to a local club in San Juan.
There was no charge Of importing any
thing upon which it was proposed to
make money, Or to sell for profit-sim-
ply personal effects for personal uses,
some of witch, it seems, were givcu
away.
I'VE were advised by the secretary
of thetreasury-sUch cases coming I'M
der his jurisdiction-that in cases Of
this character where there was no in
tention to import for profit
it is customary not to prosecute GRIM
inally, but to settle such cases by the
payment Of tie penalty. This was done
In this case, and the officer or officers
In question have paid the penalty i'm
posed by the treasury department,
which is twice the amount Of the orig
inal duties.
"a settlement on this basis having
been approved by the secretary of the
treasury, it seemed to the secretary Of
the navy and to the postmaster gener-
al that criminal prosecution would be
persecution. and we felt entirely justi-
fed in recommending that no further
action be had in these cases."
