TIRED AND SICK
OF The Endless Wrang|ing in
the Irish Party
VIM. 0'Brien Will Leave Parliament
and the United Irish League.
Beginning CT What Promises to Be 4
Serious Split.

London, Nov. 5.-Wm. O'Brien
Qrish nationalist has decided to re-
sign his seat in Parliament Cork city,
and US member of the governing body
of the United Irish League. Announc-
ing lis decision, MI O'Bren complains
that efforts are made in many quarters
to "thWart the policy recommended by
the National Directory for the purpose
of extracting the largest possible benc-
fit for the irish tenantry under the new
land act" says in this connection
that he himself has been pursued by
many interests with q ferocity and
hatred beyond that incurred by any
Irishman of this generation"
He finds that the policy which the
Irish party. the National Directory, the
National Convention and the repre-
sentative boards of the country have
approved is covered with opprobrium
and derision by Il newspaper which is
the only source of information for half
of ireland, and when he finds that this
counter policy is shared by public mon,
including his own colleagues of the
Irish party the limit of endurance has
been reached and, after anxious delib-
Grafton. he is determined to resign
without delay from Parliament ANA
from the governing body of the United
Irish League and to leave the state TO
whatever alternative policy the assail-
ants are prepared to lay before the
country.
Mr. O'Brien's resignation appears to
have been forced by Thomas Sexton,
who controls the Freeman's Journal.
and by Michael Davitt. whose letter to
that paper. Oct. d. indignantly de-
nounced John Redmond for the terms
under which the Irish parliamentary
leader sold his Wexford estate under
the new land act. 'Mr. Redmond's
action wrote Mr.. Davitt. turns the
whole land act into Il farce
Other members of the Nationalist
sparty. including John Dillon, have
almost in open revolt against the land
act and Mr.. Redmond whom they re-
gard as too moderate. Thanks to the
powerful cooperation Of Mr.. OBrien.
Mr.. Redmond has been able to retain
the leadership of the party but with
Mr.. OBrien's resignation there is
every possibility of a far reaching
split in the Nationalist ranks.
Mr., O'Brien has long been in poor
health and it required an effort to
enact him to make a public appearance
or to attend Parliament.

THE NAVY AS A TRADE.
Secretary Moody Points Out Its Oppor-
tunities for Young Men.

"Not only the man behind the gun,
but the man behind the coal shovel. the
man behind the wheel, the man in

means least of all, the man in front of

subject of solicitous thought by men
| who are distinguished as brilliant COM
| manders of ships and of squadrons,'
said Secretary of the Navy Moody,
apropos of the impending departure of
| enlisting parties for the navy, which
are shortly to start out to cover the
middle West and Southwest.
Il mean by that to convey forcibly
that each Of the many trades, callings
ana occupations which constitute the
industrial life of Il modern WaIshlp is
being scrutiniZed for avenues of i'm
provement; that there is consistent
and comprehensive effort being made
to improve the conditions surrounding
the enlisted men afloat an effort which
has already borne such fruit that /
think I am justified in saying that in
no navy are the conditions of comfort
which surround the men of the navy of

Warsmen the world has ever seen. A
boy from Is to II years of ase who en-
ters the navy as an apprentice at 50 Il
month receives a good English educa-
ton and n thorough training in sea-
manship. He has certain preferences in
the matter OF rating, and may easily,
by good conduct and continuous SER
vice. work his way up through success

$50 70 $50 y month: the latter pay, with
the quarters ard rations, equivalent to

board ship and in special schools estab-
lished for the instruction of petty
officers and advanced seamen, and is
eligible. under certain requirements, to
take the examination for warrant
officers, positions ranking next after
ensigns. and with pay ranging from
$1,000 III the first five years of service to
$3.50 after twenty years of service, with
allowances and permanence of poeition
ana employment that makes the rank
quite as satisfactory in n financial and
social way as very large proportion Of
the better-paid positions ashore. There
is, also, the. possibility of securing a.
commission as ensign, a possibility that
has been realized within the past year
by an ex apprentice Washington
