famine in a food-exporting country,
the Young Irish Party raised the
holy standard of insurrection as the
the only hope Of a perishing people,
but they also were denounced from
the altar as enemies of religion, and
their leaders stoned by mobs Of ignor-
ant fanatics led on by priests. To-
day the memory of their movement
is among the most sacred treasures
of our race.
To-day we honor and revere the
memory of the Fenians of 1867, and
every year tens Of thousands of the
brightest men and purest women in
ireland decorate the graves of those
who have passed away, yet the Fen
ians were denied the rights of the
church, and one member of the Irish
Catholic episcopate, the Bishop of
Limerick, publicly declared that "Hell
was not hot enough, nor eternity long
enough for Fenian.'
But why pile up more examples
Had DIR. Brann had the slightest
knowledge of Irish history he would
have realized that the Irish are the
last to be deferred by priestly thun.
ders from pursuing any path they be.
lieve to lead to justice. Long fam
iliarity with such thunders has de.
stroyed their terrors among the
thoughtful men and women of our
race.
But history is not the reverend
gentleman g strong point, as witness
his iiointless contrast of the "Star.
Spangled Banner' with the "Mar.
seillaise," a hymn, he says, "identi'
fed with bloodshed, strife and car.
mage" Well, does he believe that
the "Star.S .Spangled Banner" was
identified in its birth with love and
Christian brotherhood among the ma
tions' Does he forget that the "Star
Spangled Banner" was born out OF
the attempt of England to re-impose
by force its domination upon the un'
willing people of this country, as the
"Marseillaise" was born out of the
attempt of England and the other
monarehies of Europe TO re-impose
by force and slaughter, a mereiless
tyranny upon the people of Francei
Let all the DIR. Banns take notice
that the working class is on its march
that it's march is not the carefully
organized bluster Of few politicians
and their hirelings, but the spon
taneous manifestations of class
conscious that IL holds the future OF
society in its hands, and resolved to
tolerate no further outrages from the
benefciaries of a system they know
to be hurrying headlong TO its down
fall. In that onward march of the
working class, the sons and daughters
of the Esmerald Isle are taking and
will take the part worthy Of the ira
ditions Of a race that never faltered
in the face of danger, that for over
700 years has never surrendered in
its struggle against injustice.
Fellow countrymen: In our own
land We have long seen the packed
juries give our best and bravest to

YONKERS STRIKE ISSUE.
Conference Bet5Ceen Employees and
Union R@lzCQy Directors.

The committee appointed by the trolley EN-
ployes OF the Union Railway in Yonkers when
the strike was settled met the directors Of the
company last night in the Office. IN 12Sth street.
The committee. at the head OF which Is the
Rev. DR.. James z. Freeman, 20 whose efforts
the return of the men was due. presented the
arguments of the men for an increase In wages
TO % cents an hour. and there was a long dis
cussion OF the question.
No decision was reached last night. as far
could be learned. but IL is believed that there
is no chance that the company will grant the
demands OF the men. The increase in wages
could not be confined TO the Yonkers lines. and
a general increase over the whole system would
entail an increase IN the payroll OF $4,000 an
nually.
There is reason to believe that a refusal oc
the demand will mean another strike. which
will be more bitterly fought than the last one.
If strike is decided on, the whole system viii
probably be tied UP. the Yonkers men have
done a good deal OF proselytizing. They ex-
pected strikes on other parts OF the system be-
fore the last strike was settled and the order
ing OF troops TO Yonkers would probably have
provoked that result.

UNITED STATES BLAMED,
British Trade Handicapped by High
Discount Rate. Papers Sag.

London, Nov S.-The newspapers thls MORN
ing discuss the rapid advance IN the discount
rate Of the Bank OF England and reflect some
anxiety regarding the serious handicap thus
placed upon British trade and enterprise
Several irancial writer's interpret the advance
as an indication that the position of the United
States is worse than has been thought mere
hitherto. and they consider that the directors
o. the Bank of England were actuated by
desire to convey strong hint that the Aniell-
can government must take measures to restore
confidence and prevent the continued boarding
OF gold.
'The Daily Mail" prints an editorial on the
text that "in the modern financial world the
innocent must suffer with the guilty. Because
confidence has been destroyed in the United
States. the paper says. English business has to
pav heavy penalty. 1t argues against Lonuoh
