London, June 18th, "A detailed and
specific renly to a report on conditions in
Ireland made recently by Messrs. Walsh
and Dunno, American representatives of
Irish Societies in the United States, was
issued today from nubliu Castle by Mr..
James Ian MACPHERSON, Chief Secretary
for Ireland. In dealing with the general
charge of cruelty inflicted on prisoners,
the statement says: Such statements
are absolutely devoid OF Foundations.
They are similar to statements recently
made in connection with the treatment
OF Sim Fem prisoners in Belfast prison
when the Government appointed a Judi
claI commission to investigate the charge
thoroughly. The commission found that
there was no word OF truth in these state
ments." All prisoners, the st te-
ment says, Are in properly equipped
cells lighted and heated by hot water
pipes, while the prisoners are supplied
with books. Taking up some Of the
charges in detail, the Chief Secretary
declared that the prisoner William Sears
described as in confinement, is undergo
ing a sentence of closest confinement I'M
posed by visiting justices appointed by
local bodies and not by the Government.
Concerning the charges that the prison
ers had been confined for months with
out knowing with what they We. { charg-
ed the report says that no prisoner is
sentenced in Ireland today without a
knowledge of the charges against him.
Balls are granted at the discretion OF the
magistrates. The prisoners are in good
health the Secretary states and are no
suffering from mal-nutritiOn.

4. That 1t is raEnef QlITlculC IN ileSe
days to distinguish between the legally
authorized and the Self-cOnstituted clergy
man; in fact there are so many different
sects that to appoint a representative
from each, the commission would attain
unweldy proportions and yet if the
object of having the clergymen is Of any
value at all, no discrimination should
be made between the genuine and the
bogus, for both have their Pensioners,
numerous or few, and are acquainted
with their respective status and needs.
3. That in appointing clergymen be

tertained, for a single moment, as correct.
i. Within the meaning OF The fOreg0-
mo paragraph it is shown that the non
church member or the applicant with
oft any religious profession, would be
unrepresented in a commission composed
of The clergy, and InaSmUch as the pub

The proposed commission would be bias

5. At best each clergyman could but
be expected to serve the interests of
his own pensioners and if p%erchance
any Of these had been unfortunate
enough to lose us favor, and as a re
suit, his support, then such would be
without representation because il can
not be expected that the other clergy
me- should have a sufficiently intimate
knowledge Of nOn-mem0ers Of their
congregations, to warrant action in
cases where these were disappr0ved
by lheir own clergymen.
These arguments should prove sufficient
to establish the evils that would, in
