HOME RULE DEMAND is REAFflRMED
To Set Doubts Mt Rest Nationalist
Convention while Discussing Pur-
chase Measure stands Strongly
for SeIf-GOvernment.

DUBLIN, April 1.-THE Irish national
convention concluded this evening. In two
days it got through a large amount OF con-
troversial work and emerged, to quote 7. p.
o'Connor, "scathless and honored from a
test the whole world was watching. 1t was
not only shaping the destinies of Ireland,
but IL held in its hand the fate of the Brit
ish ministry"
John Redmond, replying to an enthusiast
tic vote of thanks for his Craftsmanship, de-
clared that the convention was a credit in
every particular to Ireland and afterward
announced that the amendments adopted by
the convention would be accepted at the
joint conference at which Lord Dunraven,
Lord Mayo, Captain S~hawe-Taylor. John
Redmond, William o'Brien and T. w. Rus
sell will meet. This practically insures the
passage OF the Irish land bill.
The delegates returned to their homes to-
night In a happy frame Of mind, echoing
John RedmOnd's parting words: May the
God of our fathers once again visit this
land with the peace and plenty that are its
due"
Amrms Home Rule Demand.
When the convention reassembled in the
morning, with a smaller attendance, John
Redmond, in view of a misunderstanding
In the case OF certain English papers, IN
troduced a strong home rule resolution, de-
claring that the Irish nation would never
be satisfied until it obtained a full measure
OF self government. "No substitute" said
Mr.. Redmond, can or will be accepted"
Michael Davitt briefly seconded the reso-
luton, saying Irishmen would be neglect
ing their sacred duties TO the cause il they
did not send such a message to their race
throughout the world.
Mr.. Redmond's recommendation was car
ried by reclamation.
William O'Brlen then proceeded to ex-
plain the various suggested amendments to
the land bill.
An amendment OF Mr.. o'Brien provided
for extending financial assistance to eVicted
tenants was welcomed by many Of the dele
gates, who wished 1t TO go further.

TO EXTEND BREAKWATER
To MAKE BETTER HARBOR
Conference Held in the Office
of Captain Sanford and
Plans Discussed

Following AN inspection OF the Della
ware Broakwater and harbor by the
United States Board OF Engineers on
Rivers and HarbOrs, of which Captain
w. y. Iudson Is executive officer, an
Informal conference between that BODY
and representatives OF Philadelphia
trade and maritime organizations was
held yesterday at the Office OF Cap
tain Sanford, United States engineer In
charge of the Delaware river improve
ments, ON the proposition to extend the
brealSwater, with a view to increasing
its safety as n harbor of refuge.
The present breakwater. while pre-
senting adequate protection against
eastern, or ocean, storms, leaves the
harbor exposed TO heavy noI Invest
storms which are said sometimes to
drive every vessel out Of It. The gem
eral proposition Is to build an extension
to the breakWater at about right angles
to its northern extremity, at an esti-
mated cost of about s20O00O0
At yesterdays conference alternatit e
/ lines for the proposed extension were
considered. These were AN extension
parallel with the ice piers or beginning
the extension in this direction for a
given distance and then continuing II
| in the direction OF the old and now the
inner brcalwater, with an opening be-
tween the two toward the bay Of about a
mile in width. The latter plan virtually
assures an inclosed harbor I'm which
vessels could safely anchor in the heav-
lest storms from any direction.
Among other matteEi discussed were

MILLIONAIRE MAKES
SPICY ANSWERS ON STAND
Is an Interesting Witness in
a Sensational Libel Case
in Scranton

Scranton, Pa, June Ain the trial
Of Millionaire w. w. Scranton, presi-
dent of the Scranton Gas and Water
Company. on the charge of libelling
Select Councilman Wade NJ Finn by
referring to him in a letter to the
Press as a self-confessed bribe taker,
the proceedings were enlivened by
some spicy answers from the defend
ant on cross-eXaminatiOn.
When asked if he knew Mr. Finn
personally, Mr. Scranton replied: mo;
he was pointed out to me. though, as
fellow who took bribes and then
squealed."
After denying that he bore any mall
ice towards Mr. Finn, the witness
went on to say: 81 simply regarded
him as I would a skunk in a clump
Of bushes. felt it my duty to warn
the people to keep away from the
bushes. bore no malice towards the
skunk"
Mr. Scranton created somewhat Of
a sensation by saying that it was his
impression that E. B. Sturges told him
about Finn "squealing."
Il think" said Mr. Scranton, that
he told me when he came around to
have this compromised"
Mr.. Sturges. who is the president
Of the Municipal League, and who has
devoted many years of his life and
thousands of dollars to reform work
in Scranton, was highly incensed upon
learning of Mr.. Scranton's accusations,
and at the opening of the afternoon
session went on the stand and denied
emphatically that he ever went to
see Mr.. Scranton to have the case COM
promised, or that he told him Finn
had taken bribes and squealed.
The prosecutor was scathingly ar
raigned by Joseph O'Brien in the clos
ing argument for the defense. He
laid particular stress upon the fact
that Finn did not take the stand to
make denial of any of the charges
made against him in laying grounds
on which TO rest the plea of justifica-
tion.
The case was submitted to the Jury
by Judge Edwards this morning.

WOOIen Underwear

The reason why wool underclothing
is the most valuable hygienicalIy is be-
cause it does not evaporate moisture
so rapidly as do cotton, silk and linen.
on a warm summer day fullgrown
person will perspire about a quart.
Now, it is very important that evapo-
ration shall not be too rapid or a chill
Will be inevitable. The weave Of un-
derclothing is also important. A loose
weave is more hygienic than a close
weave. Woolen underwear should be
pulled into shape, never ironed. Iron
ing flattens the little downy fibres and
makes the surface hard and non-ab-
sorbent. Loose garments are the cool
est. 1t is for this reason that the Ori-
entail wears excessively baggy cloth
