The resolution declares that the bill “Is utterly inadequate in its scope and unsatisfactory in its details and should be rejected by the Irish nation; and we regard the introduction of such a measure by a British government pledged to home rule.as confirmation of the position we have always taken —that any attempt to settle the Irish problem by half measures would be entirely unsuccessful and we call upon the Irish party to oppose the bill in the house of commons and press upon the government with all their strength and power to introduce a measure for the establishment of a native parlia- ment with a responsible executive power over all purely Irish affairs and at this crisis in the fortunes of Ireland we invite all the Nationalist forces of the country to unite in sup- port of our representatives in par- liament and enable them to effectively press for the speedy and genuine set- tlement of the Irish question.” The convention was held in the roundroom of the historic Mansion House and the floor of the rotunda was packed with delegates from many societies and constituencies represent- ing every part of Ireland. The Irish members of parliament were present in full force and many of the Catholic clergy were conspicuous on the plat- form. Redmond Condemns Measure. In his speech advocating the rejec- tion of the Birrell bill Mr. Redmond first denied the claim that he and his colleagues were committed to the bill. On the contrary, he declared, the framers of the measure had refused his advice as to the only safe basis on which the proposed council could be founded. The Irish members of parliament were not committed to any part of the Dbill or to the government. They had voted for its introduction in ‘order to fulfill their promises and so that the government’s proposals might be submitted to a convention. Summarizing his views Mr. Red- mond asserted that the Birrell bill was not workable and therefore would end in disgrace and disaster; its fail- ure would be used as an argument against Ireland’s capacity for self- government and its operation would result in the" demoralization of the Nationalist party and the existing unity, which was Ireland’s strongest weapon. Mr. Redmond criticised- the details of the financial and other features of the Dill as being inadequate when compared with the great powers given to the lord lieutenant. Government by committees, he said, was unheard of. Knowing the constitution of the British parliameat he knew it was useless to secure satisfactory amend- ments to the measure. CONCERTED ACTION BY BEARS Bad Break in Prices on the Stock Exchange. New York, May 22.—There was a bad break in prices of stocks during the day which was unexplained by any Iimmediate news developments. Sentiment in speculative circlées was very much depressed and brokers were throwing over stocks without finding any sufficient demand to ab- sorb them. Activity by an organized bear party in the speculation was sus- pected owing to the sudden and unac- countable nature of the large selling. The tactics of the bears, however, were successful in inducing much liquidation. Rumors were in constant circulation of intended borrowing on a large scale by corporations, many of these rumors being denied as fast as they got into circulation. WHEAT PRICES GO HIGHER Bad Climatic Gfinditions Cause _Another Advance. Chicago, May 22.—TWo new high records for the crop were established during the day when September wheat went to $1.04 and December to $1.- 04%. July closed over a dollar also, thus setting a record mark for the season. Bad climatic conditions caused the upturn. The close, while excited, showed- the advance well held. July closed 3% over the pre- vious day, at $1.01%; September 41§ up, at $1.03%, and December 4} ad- vanced, at $1.04%. New York, May 22.—After a tame start a wild bull market in wheat ad- vanced July to $1.08%, representing 4% cents jump for the day and a new high level for the season. Speculative excitement rose” to a high pitch, fanned by some of the worst crop re ports that have yet been seen from ‘Western states. Near the close a sudden rush of profit taking broke prices a cent per bushel from the top Beer Cut Off; Strike Results. Paterson, N.

BARE HULK ALONE SAVED Four of the Crew and One Passenger Perish in Flames, the Others on Board the Il Fated Vessel Mirac ulously\Escaplng a Terrible Death. Grand Rapids, Mich., May 22.—Four coal passers were burned to death and one passenger, J. M. Rhoades of Detroit, was fatally burned when the Crosby. line steamer Naomi, formerly the Wisconsin, was burned to the wa- ter'’s edge early in the day in the middle of Lake Michigan. Fifty pas- sengers and all of the crew except the four coal passers were taken off in small boats by the steamer Kerr and the Naomi’s sister ship, the Kan- sas, which was en route from Milwau- kee to Grand Haven. The loss on the Naomi is estimated at $225,000. After the passengers and crew were rescued & barge which had been attracted to the scene by the fire put a line on the burning hulk and is now towing her into port. The fire started in the vicinity of the kitchen, between decks, and spread so rapidly that the whole ship was a seething furnace before the crew could get the fire apparatus working. Escape of Passengers Miraculous. The flames swept the whole length of the ship and the upper works burned like tinder. It is considered miraculous that the passengers all escaped. Many of them were taken off in their night clothes, while scarce- ly any one was more than partially clad. The fire was not discovered by any of the Naomi's crew, but was first seen by the lookout on the steamer Kansas, which was proceeding in the opposite direction from Milwaukee to Grand Haven. The Kansas made di- rectly for the Naomi and in the mean- time the passengers of the ill fated boat were being awakened. Captain Thomas Traill was the last man to leave the steamer alive and his clothing was almost burned off from his body. The four coal passers who perished were helow in their bunks and are believed to have been penned down there by the flames. They are be- Heved to have shipped from Milwau- kee. It is said by the passengers that the screams of the dying men in the hold were heard, but that it was im- possible to reach them. PRAISE BRAVERY OF CREW Passengers of the Naomi Commend Heroic Work. Grand Rapids, Mich., May 22.—Clad in nondescript garments and suffering from the frightful experiences they had undergone on the burned Naomi many of the passengers of the boat returned to this city. They tell graphic and thrilling tales of their dangers and are unanimous in prais- ing the coolness and bravery of the Naomi’s crew., J. Darling of Milwaukee, state agent for the Hartford Boiler Insurance company of Milwaukee, escaped with his outside clothes drawn on over his nightshirt. Describing - incidents of the fire he said: “I saw & Mrs. Klein of Hart, Mich., in hysterics and seized her as she was about to throw herself overboard. Just about that time they brought poor Rhoades on deck. Mrs. Klein is a trained nurse and'I ordered her to look after the burned man. I spoke harshly and in an instant the little | woman dropped on her knees by the side of the suffering man and from that moment until he was placed in the ambulance she never left him. I never saw a braver lot of men and women in my life.” Arthur Jones, an attorney from De- troit, lost everything he had except his clothes. “What we suffered,” he said, “as we stood there on the stern of the boat watching the fire creeping towards us in spite of the most heroic efforts of the crew to beat it back nobody can tell. Thrdugh it all no braver men ever walked than the steward, Phillip Rosebach, and Purser William Hanrahan of the Naomi. Brave almost to a fault and as cool as if in port they worked like heroes car- ing for the passengers. It was these men who went down to the lower deck with smoke and flames all around them and handed up the body of Rhoades, whose picture still haunts me.” 3 FIVE MINERS SUFFOCATE. Workmen in Colorado Shaft Are Cut Off by Fire. Engleville, Colo., May 22.—Five miners, including Superintendent Al- exander Jacobs, were burned or suffo- cated in the Engleville mine. Fire which broke out in the mine a year -ago -had suddenly spread and swept across the incline tunnel, pre- | venting the men from reaching the outside. Strike Paralyzes Business. Santiago, Cuba, May 22.—A general strike for an eight-hour day, insti- gated by the longshoremen and sup- ported by the workmen employed an the electric railway, new aqueduct, Cuba Central railway and many small- er concerns, has been declared here. Business is paralyzed. The strikers are orderly. Trolley Service Demoralizad. Birmingham, Ala, May .!—The street railway system of Birmingham was demoralized during the day when more than three-fourths of the con- ductors and motormen of the Bf¥ming- ham Railway, Light and Power com- pany were either dismissed or volun- tarily left the employ of the company. This action followed the formation of a Street Railway Employes’ union a few weeks ago. At noon less than a dozen of the cars of the company were reported in motion, 3§ properl cated for, it1s also true thatdtis continual trouble. ‘These feaking troublcs are obviated - Leakable Foun- e ez, is trao to its name, it's air-tight and cannot Leak, It is slto clean to handic and clean to £ll, and for these reasons isa favorite among the ladies, travellers and . 5 well as emong busincss Mens Geo.

A sensalional feature is the allega- tlon of conspiracy in connection with the case. ‘his feature has already been investizated by Police Commis- sloner Bingham, as some members of the detective bureau are said to be involved. District Attorney Jerome has taken cognizance of the rumors in this regard and will call on Com- missioner Bingham to learn whether the case as it stands at present war- rants an inquiry by his office.
