APPEALS TO AMERICAN FISH
To Bury Grievances Against Scotch,
Welsh and Enelishmen.

New York, Jan. 27-John ID. Crimmins
has prepared statement which in a
sense is an appeal to Irishmen IN Amer
lea to show their gratitude to the Eng
lish, Scotch and Welsh supporters OF
Home Rule for Ireland by burying past
grievances against the ancestors of these
people. The material part of Mr.. Grim
Minis statement fellows:
John Redmond, in his statement to the
English and Irish press on the passage
of the Home Rule bill by the House OF
Commons said: ON behalf of the Irish
party and the Irish people | heartily
congratulate the British nation on the
passage of the third Home Rule bill
through the House of Commons, and ten
der to the Liberal and Labor parties, to
the Scottish and Welsh members and to
their supporters, both i'll and out of Par
Lament, our gratitude for the fidelity
with which they have championed to VIC
tory the cause of justice in Ireland
ut appears to me that all the sons of
the race and their descendants should
join Mr.. Redmond in his sentiments of
appreciation for the services of the Eng
fish, Scotch and Welsh members of Par
lament and their constituents in support
ing this measure of justice to Ireland. =
The cause of Home Rule is not, yet
won. These are trying days and it is
trying period for the Irish peiple.
1t is timely period. too, for those Of
us who are SO disposed. to express
our good wishes for the speedy COM
pletion of the desired legislation, as
well as our appreciation of those who
are aiding the Irish people at this
time.
We are living in the Goth century,
not in the past. Our faces are to the
future and we have no desire to hold
the present generation of the Eng
lish. Scotch and Welsh people respon
sible for the injustiees and hardships
our ancestors suffered at the hands
of their forefathers.
Rather would we give evidence of
our appreciation for what the people
day. are doing to redress the wrongs
of the past and to render justice to
Ireland.
This is not alone my view. but the
view of John Redmond, and his broth
err, as well as of T. P. O'Connor and
many of my fellow citizens with
whom l have had conversations on the
subject during the years the enact
ment of Home Rule legislation has
been pending.
To-day, is an opportune time to ex.
pSess ourselves, as l have suggested

people of Ireland"

CONFIRMING DISPATCHES
OF Murder of Nazim Pasha-Autopsy
Discloses Dagger Wounds on Body.

London, Jan. 2T.--Uneensored Constant
tinople dispatches received in London,
confirmed the previous account of the re-
volt against the government and the
shooting of the war minister, Nazim
Pasha.
The dispatches add little to the details
already known, but state that the autopsy
on the officers killed disclosed that the
bodies bore ragged wounds as well as
bullet wounds, thus throwing doubt on
the assertion that the killing was unpre-
meditated.
According to the Daily Mail the Bal
kan ultimatum to Turkey will give four
days grace to enable the Powers to de-
wise any possible means to bring pressure
upon the Porte.
The Mail also says that Col. Joston,
chief of staff of the third Bulgarian army
before Tchatalja, who is now acting as
military adviser to the peace mission,
will leave London for the front, tonor-
row. and that all the Powers, including
Russia and Austria, have given assur-
ances that the hostilities shall be limit
ed 10 the Balkan states and Turkey.

at Good Will. and deliberately ran
away from his home in New York to
