How It Was Manifested in Omaha Last Night. .ELOQUENCE AND ENTHUSIASM, The Meoting at Boyd's Opera House au Entire Success, Closing With Resolutions of No Uncer- tain Sound. The Parn Meeting. R Patriotic Irishmen and sympathizers with Parnell in his regent great tight for lib- erty and justice, assembled in goodly num- bers at Boyd's opera house last night to help in one of the greatest causes for the Ltle isle ncross the sca—home rule. The theater presented something of a ehange i appearance when the auditors began to arrive. There was no tragedy to be enacted, no comedy to be played, no farce or drama to be witnessed. There were no pretty decollotte dresse 08805 to emerge from the green room, but instead came Irish speakers and some not Irish,but all in syi- pathy with Parnell. 4 On the stage was a_circle of chairs, ar- ranged somewhat similar to a minstrel first part, aud the “interlocutor,” or, more nlainly speaking, chairman, for this occasion, was Governor John M. Tha; In the center of the stage, just before the footlights, was a magnificent bouquet of roses of various colors, to which Hon. Jobn L. Webster mado 8n eloquent, apostrophe in the course of his speech. Among the flilun&uighed gentlemen upon the stags were: Governor Thayer, J. M. Tharston, T, I. Mahoney, M. V. Gannon, M. Donovan, R. O'Keefo, Colonel ‘Chase, J. £ Hoyd, J. P, Sutten, J. L. Miles and John Qroves. Tho demonstration was held for the pur- poso of raising 8 fund to aid Parnell in his figat. for liverty, bome ruie and against tho tyrunny and coercion of the English tory overnment and its right bower, the London fi‘(u cs. The fund has heen established in tho cgstern cities and has exteudod wost with the prime objoet of cuabling Parnell, and, through him, the Trish causo, to defend itself against tho foul slanders printed in the Times. The investigation, as will be re- membered, was carriod on before three of the most distinguished English judge: The Timos and tho tory government wis v sented by the most eminent counsel, Parnell and his colleagues had tho serv of harles Russell. The result of the in- vestij may be ]\h!fll!d by ‘the fight and suicide of Pigott. To defray the expenses of the trial tho Parnell fund has been started, and to contribute to this fund the Irish peo- plo and sympathizers to that cause assembled ast night at the opera house. When the dozen or more distinguished spoakers of the evening came upon the stago John L. Miles introduced Governor John M. Thayer, who stated that he was grateful for the invitation extended him to rru:da over & meeting so iniportant, and which was neld in the interest of Charles Stewart Parnell. The governor hoped for success in the great Irish cause in which Parpell was engaged, The speaker thought he saw the sigus of brighter days for home ruie. He congratu- tated Mr. Parnel! for his great work, Justice was slow, with a leaden foot, but it got around at last with an iron grasp. He trusted that the day wasnear athand when evie- tion, landlordism Pigottism would be ban shed forever. The governor stated that the English government had been a party to tie orime against Parnell. Pigott, he sad, bad done the only decent minby ending his existence, and that if the ndon ‘Tunes would follow his example by shooting itsplf, it would bea blessinz. The ?.Knr anl Pigott haa dug a pit for Parnell, but thoy fell into it themselves. It had always been a great mystery to him why Englaud could not see what Ireland would do for her if Evgland would only be just to the little ‘sle across the sea. In conclusion the nor said he had faith to say that J would be done to Ireland. As chaleman of the Inuu#g. Governor Thayer iatroduced John M. Thurston, who am beve to-alght by your kindness and that of your committee to sympathize with Parnell, and to protest against the gigantic conspiracy against him and the Irish_people, The gathering of American citizens to sym- pathize with Ireland in efforts 1w favor of free government has brought down on them, Iam sorry to say, the distavor of many American papers. Why should we not sym- pathize with the great moral effort that trecs all countries against the tyranny and coercion of des- potic governments and despotisiu: So long as this constitutional government continues, as its citizens bo pure, just so long does it stand s a menace agamst despot and tyrannic governments. Any gove: ment in which every man may not assert his just rights, should bo effaced from the face of the earth. - To-day we are hero to congrat- ulato ourselves that the time has gone by in the histary of the world when revolutions canbo settied by force, and, thank God, nd PParnell are making way in It is no longer Irishm cn, put it is the arbitrati v of great principles by thinking nd all pations. When Pigott on his own word, the cause of won, and it only remains for at Britain, at the next election, tion in the wrongs of Ire- Inud will bri bout the granting to lreland all its people are desirous of and wish for.” The speaker closed his remarks and Gov. Thayer stated that he was very much pained to state that Dr. George L. Miller, who was booked for a speech, was alllicted with a sore throat ana would have to be excused. John P. Sutton, of Lincoln, was the next man who spoke. When he looked upon this city he thought of the dear old land which ne left in ruins aud decay caused by the tyranny and coercion of English government and landloras. The waking of this great and glorious conutry had been its freo and untrameled = 'government. There was not a doubt that in threc years home rule would be given to Ircland. He then asked sympatby and support for the peoplo who are mnow struggling against tyranny and oppression., After the band had played a short plece the chairman introduced Hon. John L. Web- ster, who made an eiaborate address. When Lo first came to this city thinking of the people who came to this country from Ire- land he conld not help feeliug for the eiti- zens of a great and glorious country, all of whom hlufdmm 80 much to establish in this country the principles of free government, Mr. Webster would be glad when the Amer- ican flag should be carried across the waters and say to Ireland that it would have its lib- erty. If Jreiand had such a leader as Sher- idan was in the army in Virginia, it could march out to victory, as he did, ‘The fo'lowing resolutions were theu read by Thomas Brennan, and were unanimously adopted: Whereas, The Irish people have never ceased 1o labor for the attainment of national self-government, and Whereas, We, the citizens of Omaha, knowing and enjoying the blessings which flow from a system acknowledging the peo- ple's right to control their own political af Tairs, aud Whercas, Aa such citizens wo are ardently in faver of the plun of loca! self-govern- ment, aud its adoption in every country; thercfore be it Rosolved, That we extend our cordial -iy;m»nny and support, to the Lrish people in their great and weil sustained struggle for home rule. Tosolv That we congratulate Charles Stewart Parnell and the Irish peoplo on the exposure of the informer’ piracy of the tory goverument and the Times new puper 10 blacken the character of tho irish race by the attempted moral assassination of its recognized lead Resolved, Thawy olrnro!e of a peaceful and christian-iike settloment of the inter- national quarre! between England and lre- land. Authe same time we fully recognize the right of every people Lo try every means in their power for the attainment of that which Awmericans have so happily and sue- cessfully won, the right to “life, liverty and the pursuit of happiness.” Kesolved, That we congratulate our fel- low citizen, Patrick Fgan, of Noebraska, upon the care, prudence, and skill, which enabled hiw to uuearth the infamy of Pigott and lay bare the hate, malice, and perfidiousuess of the Tunes-Tory cowbization aganst jus- tice and liberty. Resalved, That we take an_especiul pride in the heroic sud sell-sacrilicing conduce of to show l Wm. O'Brien, and those imprisones him, in their manly efforts to expose the sys- tematic torture which the Tory government inflicts upon its political prisoners, and wo send them an assurance their prison cells that their determination is greattully appreciated by the h race, and has the approval of all lovers of human liberty. Mr. Brennan was one of the organizers of the Land league. In the course of his fiery speech he said: ‘‘After the manuner in which you have re- ceived the reading of the resolutions which I havo presented for your consideration, it will Dbe unnecessary for'me to say much respect- ing them, more especially afier the eloquent speeches which you =~ have just heard. ‘We meet here, however, and send a mes- sage to our brothers across the water that the war of races should cease. We see no reason why there should not be a republic ol England, Scotland and Ireland as well as that of the United States. We have had the peace of death, of the prison cell, but now we want the peace of honor. Our work now is one of peace to uphold the hand of a man who directed Irish enthusiasm into practical channels. Our _ duty is to support Parnell, and to destroy the most damnable conspiracy against a peonle and its party chief. day we hear broad sympathics expressed by Englishmen that show that the time of awakening is near at hand. Our fight is not with the English people but with the infam- ous and tory govePument of that country. It does not become us to make threats or idle boasts, but it would be good to-night to d a message to Bulfour and to O'Brien’s jai:or that if anything happens O'Brien a hundred thousand Irishmen will know the reason w! and swords will be used to demand it. the English people will get tired of giving the heirs of John Brown to the impecunious Dutch princes who seek her shores with no other possession than ten acres of ground.” M. V. Gannou and T. J. Mahoney, both lawyers and Irish orators, delivéred elo- quent addresses, and were enthusiastically applauded. J. I2. Boyd also made a brief talk, and said be was an Irishman and sym- pathized with that nationality in its efforts to obtain justice. The secretary was called upon to read the names of subscribers to the fund. The con- tributions amounted to about $11.000. A vote of thanks was extended to James E. Boyd for the use of the opera house, Governor Thayer, and the spenkers, The Majestio Police. About4a. m. this morning, as a well known physician on North Sixteenth street was returning from a visit to a patient, to whose bedside he had been suddenly called, he was halted by Officer Mike Milligan, and the following colloquy ensued : *‘Where are you goin' sori” asked the cop. I am going about my business,” replied the doctor, “Coine now,"” said the officer, “‘none uv yer imperdence, or I'il run yez in. Now, sor, That is your bishiness " “I'm'a physician, sir,” was the reply. “‘Ah, an’iv's fishin’ yer goin',”” said the policeman. *‘Dum ye, ol'll tache yez to go a fishin’ at 4 o'clock in the mornin.’ Come wid me, sor,”’ and the cop marched the doctor to the patrol box and prepared to ring for the patrol wagon, The saw-bones meanwhile attempted to explain watters to the majestic guardian of the law, and finall. in explaining that the words ‘‘doctor” &nd ‘**physician’ meant the same thing, and thereby escaped beiwng locked up in a foul-smelling cell as a “guspicious character.” , i e Albani Serenaded. Madame Albani was tendered a serenade at her rooms at the Murray last night. The Madame recognized the gay serenaders, and io return for their compliment, favored them with several vocal selections that were highly appreciated. An informal reception followed. v ————— Armes Apologizes. Pirrsnuie, Pa., April 8.—A special from Harrisburg sa; Governor Beaver has re- ceived a letter from Major Armes. It con- tains a most object apology, and begs him to interfere to prevent a court-martial. Armes says that rather than submit to the disgrace of being court-martialed ne will commit suicide. N. D. ALLEN, Vice-President. THE BOARD OF TRADE ALERT Members Resent the Charge That the Body is Asleop. CITIZENS WHO STAND ALOOF. The Ex-Scerotary Makes a Statement Showing That Hostile Criticism is Unjust—The Excursion to Deadwood. Last night in the board of trade hail Pre: dent Martin rapped to order a fair attend- ance of members. The property committee reported collec- i for the month of March amounting to i 3 from April 1to April 8, $1,274.163 past due rental account, $1.018.20; unoccu- pied rooms, Nos. 33, 42, 43, 47, 56, 3 11, rental value $1 On behalf of the committee appointed to confer with Senator Manderson in respect to the location of Fort Omaha, G. M. Nai- tinger asked for further time. Grante The secretary read a communication from the Nebraska Fuel company. Stephenson—*Each and every person sign- ing that paper will have to take gas and fuel for a certain length of time.” . ident-*‘We are simply askedto indorse method of placing fuel. The communi- n will be laid on the table and members can sign it if they desire.”’ Tuere was read u letter of E. A. Houston, of Niobrara, Neb., on the advisability of the extension from Veraigris, twelve milos away, to tbat place of the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missour: Valley railway, securing to Omaha tne market of Niobrara instead of leaving it to bereached by Chicago via, Running Water on the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul rail- way two miles distant, Mr. Houston stated that his precinct would bond itself to the ex- tent of $5,000 and give depot grounds, ete. Referred to committee on transportation. A oircular letter from Alex D. Anderson, dated ut Washington, April 5, 1n relation o the Three Americas exposition in 1802, re- porting progress and asking the appointment of a committee of three and the secs represent the Omaha board of trade, motion the appointment of such committee wus authorized. The president said that it did not seem to be generally understood that the board of trade is a corporation. . There is apparently an impression that members are elected or’ ap- pointed, and are subject to_strictures as an elected’ or appointed body. Particularly people who have lved here a long time and haven't had the liberality to join, are severggivon us: “I don't,” he said, “‘ad- mire thes® men whostand on the sidewalk and decry what is done by this body.”” John G, Willis—ome of those who have ;'ilmm most of the barking are strangers i o city.” R. C. Patterson inquired 1f there was not enough revenue to be derived from the rents of building to exempt members from annual dues of §25. " ‘The secretary said that it was & matter of policy to pay the iudebtedness: that when this indebtedness was paid off the stock would be worth §70,000 more, and that the by-laws provided regular assessment for current expenses. - Major Wheeler stated that the revenues of the building wae pledged to the liquida- tion of the mortgage indebtedness, and that it would probably take she full earnings of the next two years to pay off the second mortgage bonds. . Seoretary Nason had nothing to say: “I have been asked a number of times if I had seen a certain Sunday paper, to which I have MKMM ‘Yes.' “To the public, 1 wish merely tosay that in my bumble opinion, the article is prejudicial to the best interests of the public and this city, therefore an unfortunate production. As to the correctness of the conclusion of its author, 1 do mot think it necessary to re- spond. “The Omaha board of trade consists of a membership of 226 business men, and as far as my scquaintance extends, all gentlemen, The objects of its orgauization are plaiuly set DUNDEE PLACE DUNDEE forth in 1ts articles of incorporation, of which are obtainable b, at the oftice of its secretary, an_examination of which will disclose the fact that it is an incorporation, duly and regularly created under the laws of the state, Mem- bership conveys to each individual owner, and to his heirs in event of death, a_joint interest in the property of tne association. Persons who do not hold memberships or bave ownership in the cor- poration, have no more voice in its manage- ment than any other joint stock association, Its management, its objects, 1ts usefulness, its origin and finality concern onl; . However, it _may not b o to say that among its objects is to aid by the organized effort it secures, in building up the commercial interests of the city. And notwithstanding the fact that the author of the articles referred to has cast insinuations that nothing to the benetit of the public has resulted by the influence and labors of the board, tnere are numerous incidents and a larger amount of testimony to the contrary. Respecting information disseminated throughout the country by means of the secretary’s report, it would be difficult to_estimate the actual benelits de- rived trom it, but T am led to conclude from numerous applications received during f term of my office for them that e is justification for the publication and distribution, aua since there have been no objections raised by mdividuals who contrib- ute in funds for the promotion of the object, I presume the plan wiil bo continued not- withstanding the aaverse criticism of such a powerful, wealthy, influential and public- spirited paper as the one referred to." here was a discussion of the Black Hills copies interested parties . 0. Lobeck said: “I am going to the Black Hills to talk for Omana. There is where our business lies. Every traveling man we send out is a missionary for Omaha. Instead of forty excursionists there ought to be 100." Shephenson—*Nothing could do Omaha moro good. There are hundreds of cars going from Chicago to Rapid City, and if we can get some o7 this trade this trip would be a grand thing for Omaha.” Other members expressed similar opinions, and after reaching the unanimous conclusion thiat the western visit could result in nothing but good to the city, the meeting adjourned.
