THE OMAHA DAILY BIXTEENTH! YEAR OMAHA. WEDNESDAY MORNING, BEE. JUNE 8. 1887, NEW YORK'S IRISH SQUABBLE Further Particulars of the O'Brien Diffi- culty in New York. POLITICAL HOT HEADS COOLING. Faillure of the Attempt to Hitch United Ireland's Editor to the George-McGlynn Charfot— The Leagune Divided. An Unfortunate Situation. New York, June 7.—|Special Telegram to the Brr.)—Willlam O’Brien’s refusal to attend the labor demonstration Saturday night is being discussed in every quarter, 1t has created more feeling and more bitterness among Irish-Americans in this city than anything which has occurred here during several years, This s all the more remark- able as Irish societies and labor organiza- tions were never before brought so closely face to face and never before crossed swords, 80 to speak, which they are most unques- tionably doing now. To understand this it should be stated that the labor organizations derlve most of their strength from the Irish, who are leaders, and influential leaders, too, of most of the flenry George socleties, But beside the leaders the lrish forn a majority of the rank and filee In many of assembly districts men who are officers of local brancnes of the Irish National league are also promi- nently identitied with the labor party in some localities. If, therefore, there were differ- ences and dissensions before, there are more now, and If this feeling continues to develop a8 it has since O'Brien’s refusal to attend Baturday night's meeting, there will be a fight, and a hard fought fight between those who are Irish and members of the labor or- mnlutlnnl on the one hand, and those on e other hand who have no afliliation with the Sons of Erin,except that they are staunch and firm supporters of Dr. McGlynn. In some quarters of the city O’Brien’s name is Iauded to the skies; in other parts the most elaborate dictiobary that has yet appeared does not furnish epithets sufficiently strong to decide what is called his “‘base refusal” to attend the meating, The indications, how- ever, are that the tide is turning tothe side of the member for northeast Cork, and that as his view of the matter is made known the views of his opponents will chance to his side. O'Brien’s demand Is that the question be looked at from an Irish and not from an American point of view. The Ni tional league I8 divided, though the majority approve O’Brien’s cause. The committes which I8 making arrangement for a farewell dinner to 0'Brien this evening, went to the Fifth Avenue hotel to invite James G, Blaine, Blaine was out, but Walker Blaine assured the committee of the warm sympathy of his father with thecause of home rulein Ireland, and expressed his regret that his father would not appear at the dinner, owing to yreuulnu work demanded by arrangements for his departure for Europe, O’Brien has recelved the following tele- ;{mm from the executive committee of the ational league in lreland,s Igned Harring- ton. “The executive committe of the National league in lreland, in meeting assembled, heartily -?vmva your action in keeping Irish questions free from American issues. Ireland’s cause appeals to American lovers of liberty without distinction of party and we feel convinced no sincere friend will wish us to involve that sacrea cause in issues that may delay or hinder the final outcome. The reception to Kditor O'Brien to-night at the Hoffman house was a brilliant affair. Leading citizens united in the ovation thus tendered under the auspices of the Irish national league and the Hoffman house committee of the Irish parlinmentary fund. Ex-Mayor Grace presided. On the right were Willlam O'Brien, Bishop Farrell Governor R. 8. Green, of New Jersey, and others; on the left, Mr. Kilbride, Hon. Eu- ene Kelly, Charlés A.

Farrell, bishop of Trenton; ‘iladstone,” Rev. W. Lloyd, D. D.; “Our Sister States,” Hon. R. 5. Green, overnor of New Jersey; ‘‘I'he Press,” olonel W. L. Brown. In presenting the guest of the evening, Mayor Grace took occasion to laud in glow- Ing terms the learning, patriotism and ser- vices of O'Brien. The Istter was recelved with mml enthusiasm, and proceeded to ax- press his gratitude for the many kindnesses received. Referring to the Saturday night affair, he said one would think from the re- marks of some of the papers that they envied the laurels of Lansdowne’s mobs. He Dbeleved American opinion had con- demned them emphatically and over- whelmingly. . O'Brien referred to the taunts of John McMackin and others, and after explaining again his dellcate position he saia he belleved the American people understood McMackin. He then rend a letter from the Irish parliament- ary committee ,ukln‘( him the people of lreland $25, P subscription raised in this country. Letters of regret were recaived from Governor Hill, Mayor Hewitt, General Sherman, Roseoe Conkling, Governor Lounsbery of Connecti- cut, ex-Governor Hoadley of Ohio, and Presi- dent Fitzgerald of the National league.

Their resistance is admirable, but the odds are terribly azainst them, The tory poliey of eviction and forced emigration we resist as one man, ‘Workingmen in America in thelr own inter- est should protest against this pauper labor being forced upon their market. I would suggest that a deputation of friends of our cause and the Knights of Labor wait upon the Pmflldtnl of the United States and invite his attention to Enzland’s policy in driving thousands of our people every week from Ireland to the states. }lumnnu{ and en- lightened self interest unite in urging Amer- lca to action in this matter. We want the means to succor the evicted and make some small recompense to the imprisoned who sac- rifice their liberty to injustice. Bodyke Is tighting the batile of h‘!‘nnd. ICHAEL DAvIrT, el T Evictions in Ireland. DuB11N, June 7.—The evictions at Bodyke continued to-day.

Entrance was ugh the opening and a fight en- e tenunts were evicted and after- ‘ward arrested. ‘The bailift’s charge the tenants with hay- ing thrown viiriol upon them, but this is denied. A tenant named Murphy made similar resistance against eviétion. jptain Vandaleur offers his Kilrush ten- ants a reduction ot 15 to 25 per cent. ‘The tenants, who have adopted the plan of cam- palgn, demand reductions of 25 to 40 per cent. and have commenced barricading their mmlu in anticipation of an attempt to evict en, e—— Another Instaliment of Rot.

In an edi- torial on the subject the Times says: “The whole (‘m|~r|nl(',\'.wln-\hrr carried on by mealy-mouthed gentlemen who sit at a London dinner table or fiends who orzanize arson and murder, is one and undivisable. It is paid out of the same pirse, worked b, the same men, directed to the same ends an inspired by one universal hatred of England and a determination to bri bout, if possi- ble, complete separation bef England and treland. Whether the money goes to the support of Gladstonians in parliament or to equip desperadoes for commital of out- rages in English towns is a matter of tactics. gl vty The Cotton Spinners' Combination. | Copyright 1857 by James Gordon RBennett.) MANCHESTER, June 7.—| New York Herald Cable—Special to the Bre).—The spinners’ association, which originated the scheme for running on short time the spinning mills so as to defeat the corner in American cotton, met to-day to consider the replies to the cir- cular asking members of the trade to join the movement, when the old difliculty pre- sented itself—that of securing a sufficient combination to make the scheme successful. I understand that a considerable provortion of the trade have pledged themselves. The necessary majority of two-thirds is unse- cured. Upon the suggestion that the Whit- suntide holidays prevented a full considera- tion of the matter, it was acreed to extend the time of sending replies one week. 1t is, however, by many regarded doubtful whether the movement will be sustained. it Sianiiniy Another Chance For Steadman, LoNpoN, June 7.—Since the revelations made by the Pall Mall Gazette and the pas- sage of the criminal law amendment bill the public has believed the traffic in children im- possible. A case in Lambeth police court, therefore, eaused a universal sensation of horror. Edward Procknell and three women were arrested, charged with keunln;; houses of 1ll-repute and_having procured for their patrons scores of girls from ten to fourteen years of age. The prisoners and victing are all of humble rank. The evidence so far shows that the seducers of the irls belong to the same class. The government will prose- cute the prisoners, all of whom were re- manded. Detective Stevens, in the employ of the reformatory and uge union, who has taken the principal part in bringing to light these crimes, states that during the past four years he has rescued 400 girls between the ages of four and a half aud fourteen years trom lives of crime. g Doings in the Commons, LoNDON, June 7.—. 4 the commons to-day Hon.

New Yonrk, June 7.—[Speclal Telegram to the Bek.|—The World's Boston special says: mer Chickering, one of the best known and most fashionable photographers 1n this city, appeared in court yesterday to answer the charge of printing and selling in- decent photographs, Chickering has taken portraits of many actresses in his studio on West street and has negatives of the photo- graphs of most of Boston’s prominent society women, He was arrested last Saturday on information furnished by & young woman, whose name the police refuse to divulge. 1t is said that many young women from Com- monwealth avenue, and the back-bay dis- trict have posed recently in various striking attitudes. Their explanation 1s that as devotees of true art there can be nothing im- proper in exposure of natural beauty. The vhotographs have been — widely distributed and greatly admired among the \'mmfi women’s intimate friends. ‘The sudden passion for such displays of art has spread rapidly, and some of the pho- tographs have found their way outside of the select circle where they were intended to be seen and adwired. It is said that some of the private nezatives have been reproduced and copies put on sale quietly about the city. I'he World correspondent was shown, a few days ago, a dozen samvles of these pho- tograpns. They were many of them taken in various poses after the famous pictures in the French salon and in the reproduction of Greek ideals, Most of the pictures were so arranged that the features of the subject were veiled. 'I'he name of lhe‘flmwnrmpher was not imprinted on the cards, which are larger than the cabinet size, Chickerinz says that while he does not care to say who his customers have been or what curtail- ment of attire they may have seen fit to em- ploy in his art, the present prosecution isa case of blackmail. He says that he was vis- ited by a woman who told him that she knew of his pictures, and said she would make complaint against him unless he paid her $:00 hush money, This Chickering refused to do and he says his arrest was the gesult. He intends to make this his defense rather than go into the question as to who hig pat- rons were and how he took their portraits, Sh e ity Cai Gibbons, New York, June 7.—Cardinal Gibbons took a train this morning for Baltimore. One of the members of the party accompany- ing his eminence said the cardinal will soon issue an address to Catholics connected with Iabor organizations advising them to cut loose from the Georye-McGlynn party, Bavriyone, June 7.—When Cardinal Gib- bons arrived in the city this afternoon, he was received by Mayor Hodge, the ity conn- cil, judges of the courts and_ police commis- sioners, and by Charles A.
