SYMPATHY FOR THE OPPRESSED. Sentiment Expressed at the Convention of the Irish Indepsndent League. SCATHING RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED. Loyal Natlonallsts Evarywhere Are Urged to Commemorate the Struggle of 1798. Special Dispatch to TiE CALL DUBLIN, Jreuanp, Oct. 1L.—The first general nationul convention of the Irish Independent League, organizad by John Redmond, M. P., the Parneilite leader, opened this afiernoon in the Ancient Concert-rooms here, Eight hundred en- thusiastic delegates packed the hall and actively participated in cheering vocifer- ously every pertinent speech which met with their approval, and in jeering the names of Dillon, Healy and Davitt, as well as in hissing the name of Mr. G ad- stone when M: Redmond characterized him as “the Englishman who betrayed Ireland.” Every re‘erence to the struggle of 1798 was greeted uproarious'y, bpariicuiarly Mr. Redmond’s reaaing of the oath taken by the revolutionists. All the speeches paid tribute to the patriotismo! the late Charles Stewart Paruell, and warm cnheers greeted the entrance of the Reamondites John Parnell and Patrick O'Brien in the hall. The climax of the convention was reached when, duringa speech delivered by William Redmond, he said that when the Dillonites rejected Parnell they “alienated the United States, thus killing the goose which laid the golden egg.” Continuning, Mr. Redmond said he would never walk into any robm to be controtled by Dillon ana Healy, though he was for unity, adding: “With all the royal processions through our streets it is ime for Irishmen to sav something. The great mass of the Irish people are to-day, and will be until liberty is given them, tne enemies of England England is a_bully, a pirate and a savage. Whether in India or in Africa, the tloody tlag of the British emyire has been ad- vanced by pinndering and destroving poor peonle. Our sympathy goes out to these poor people. God bless them and give success to their efforts. Three cheers for the men in India who are fighting ingland.” The d legates thereupon climbed upon their seats and shouted, “Down with Britain!” The meeting had up to that point been of asomewhat miid de-cription, but much denunciation of Englaud and talk of 1798 foliowed, Mr. Kaliey of Ma-sachusetts, ior | instance, savine that Ireland would have her jubilee in 1898 “‘uver the attempt of honest men to do honest work for Ire- land.” Tuere was also much denunciation of Great Britain's proposal to give Ireland a Catholic university. The partic pation of the priests in politics was condemned and the Healyites were denounced as the “assassins of Parnell,”” There was, however, no discord what- ever. The resolutions were all adopted with enthusiasm, and the reading of a telegram from the Irsh Independent Leaxue of New York was heartily cheered. Every possible effort was made to or- gan:ze a thoroughly representative con- vention. Invitatione were issued to all corporations, town commissiouers, poor- law ruardians, foresters, members of the Gaelic athletic clubs, literary <ocieties, amnesty associations, national banks, trades and traders’ counci.s, registration associations, Youny Ireland associations and national and workingmen’s clubs. The stewards of the Parnell anniver-ary demonstration acted in a similar capacity at the convention. The reading of an enconraging message from Boston remitting $100 was tollowed by three cueers for the S:ars and Stripes, Resolutions were adopted reaffirmin that the Irish question ¢ n only be settied by the concession of nuuonal self-govern- ment and calling upon all members of Pariiament who *.or the last few years have pursued a mistaken policy” to ‘‘re- jorin tune Independent party, unite upon the principles of Charles Stewart Parnell and demand the releasz of all political prisoners as an act of simple justice and nhumanity.” Resolutions were also adopted urging the Irish eyerywhere to commemorate the revolution of 1798 ; denouncing the Govern- ment for repudiating the repori of the oyal comm:ssion of the financial rela- ions between Great Britain and lreland Xpressing regret at the necessity of rais- ng a Parned family fund, and caling upon Irishmen gen‘rally 1o respond to the appeal and thershv remove from Ire- land the stignia of ingratitude tor the priceless services and devot on of the late Charles Stewart Parnell, and calling upon Dillon,Davitt and Harringioa to pay from the portion of the Paris fund alloited for that purpose the £5000 due to the Parnell estate, The proceedings of the convention were finished this evening, and the prediciions made of a revolt aguinst the leadership of Redmond proved entirely un- founded. The deiegates cheered him en- thusiastically, and on the adjournment they warmiy praised his speech, pro- nouncing it to be a mostable outline of the policy of the Irish Independent League.

PUAZLED bY HE ACTION UF CANADA Treasury Agents Hasten to Washington to Report. UNEXPECTED AID FOR YEE GEE. Dominion Lends Assis‘ance to an Alleged Ring of Smugglers. MYSTERY BACK OF HOOK TOY’S ARREST. Victoria Chinese Charged With Forging Evdence Agalnst the Suspects. Spectal Dispatch to THE CALL. SEATTLE, Wasu, Oct. 1L—Many special treasury cflicials who have been here from New York prosecuting a search for evidence on which to base the arrest of those implicated in Sound smuggline ring are much puzzled over the position which the Canadian Government has taken in the affair. They reai.ze that if they go ahead with the in- vest'gation they will piace the United States in the peculiar position of being directly antagonistic to the Canadian Government. Last Saturday the Cana- dian poiice at V ctoria, B. C., caused the arrest of Hook Toy, one of the biggest Chinamen in all Canads. He was charged with forgery, and the Canadian police charged that he forged all the incriminat- ing letters which reached the Uniied States Government officials at Washing- ton, which caused x b g rush of specia, treasury agents to the West and later re- sulted in tbe arrest of Yee Gee, who was official interpreter for Collecior Saunders. The letters purported 10 have been signed by Yee Gee, and if they bad never come into existence the Chinese inter- preter would never have been arrested. But what puzzles the treasury sgents is the action of Canada in causing Hook | Toy's arrest. The cflicials have come 10 | but one conclusion, and that is that Col- sector Saunders and his men are back of Hook Toy's arrest. They as well as Yee Gee have always maintained that the let- ters were forgeries. Federal Judze Han- ford may aiso be bick of Hook Tov's arrest, and there is no doub: that Yee | Gee’s counsel in this city has been giving the Canadian Government zssistance in unearthing what is characterized as a plot to send Collector Saunders and a number of his employes to jail. Specinl Trea-ury Agent Whitehead, who came from New York and who bad charge of the Chinese investigation, lef. this city for the East very suddenly iast Saturday night as soon as he heard that Hook Toy had teen arrcsted. He took with him Special Treasury Agent Cullom of Tacoma and a special employe of the Treasury Department, Mr. Lewis of New York. Itis believed that they went Kast to confer with Secretary Gase relative to | Canada’s move. Hook Toy has for years fizured in big | Chinese cases in British Columbia. When | Yee Gee was arrested for landing Chinese in this country letiers were produced by Whiteheaa. He refused to teli where he got them. They tolG 1nside facts concern- ing the smuggling ring. Yee Gee said he never w-ote them, 2nd asserted that they were written by some Chinaman em- ployed by an enemy. He hinted that Hook Toy did it, as he had on one other occasion figured in a mmilar forgery. When Judge Hanford of the Federal cotirt had it brought to his official atten- tion that Yee Gee charped the letters to be forgerics he got possession of them and refused to surrender them to Whitehead. He said he intended to take a hand in the investigation. Yee Gee's counsel had a conference with him, and one of them later went to Victoria. Hook Toy’s arrest followed. Yee Gee’s counsel claims to have evi- dence to proye that Hook Toy forged the letters. They will turn over their evi- dence to the Canadian Government. In the meantime the treasury officials are puzzled. FEDERAT.ON GF BROTHERHO00DS, Railroad Men to Fto!d Cne of the Most Important Eonleranpes in the History of Unions.

ILL, Oct. 11.—Charles Bam- mond, the private who was drageed by a rope tied to his feet from the guard house at Fort Sheridan to headquartersof the wost, began at noon to serve a fourteen days’ sentence of solitary continement with a bread and waterdiet. This de- cision of the summary court at For: 3her- idan deals alone with Hammond’s refusal to work as a vrisoner. The finding was returned by Lieutenant-Colonel Bain- bridge, who was sitting during the ses- <ion and_was this morning approved by Co'onel Robert H. Hall, the commanding officer of the post. Captain Lovering, the officer whose treatment of the rebellious private hus created such a storm of aiscussion in civic and army circies alike, will undergo no investigation. Colonel Ilall asserts that his subordinate only obeyed instruc- tions as a soldier; that this treatment of Hammond was wholly excusabie under the circumstances, auda that he would be 1n no wise censured for the bebavior of the captain. The whoie affair will proba- bly be reviewed by a geneial court-mar- tial, which wi'l be assembled at the in- stance of General Brooke, department commander. Colonel Hall has forwarded to the latier officer a statement of the case and further charging Prisoner Hammond with disobeying ord s o #RS. NACK R:ZADY TO CONFESS.

Last week the ¢ lored peo- ple ceased sending their children to the chools for the whites, supposedly await- ing adecisipn from the courts. The poiice guards accordingly were withdrawn.

Boldly Carried Off Into the Wilds of Maine on Her Wedding Night. But She Had Turned the Brute to an Idiot by a B.ow From an Ax. Special Dispatch to THE CALL. BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 11.—A Vanceboro (Me.) special says: Joe Lacoot of Lam- bert Lake Las solved the mystery ol the disappearance of Peter Bubeer of Wyto- pitlock, whose sudden and somewhat sen- sational dropping out from civil zation Lwo years ago created excitement in this section. Firing his revolver in the air, the rejected lover burstinto the wedding festivities when Rosie Pelletier was mar- ried to Eli Sirois two years ago, and, un- der the very nose of the groom, carried off | the pretty bride. They had never been seen since, and now comes the famous trapper, Joe La- | coot, with his weird tale solving the mys- tery. In the midst of the North Wash- ingion wilderness he discovered, herding with some gaunt wild hogs, the strangest mortal he had ever seen, naked and hziry and walking on all fours. It was Peter Bubeer turned to an idiot by a blow from an axin the hands of the stolen bride he was holding in craoel imprisonment. Near by the trapper found a rude birch- bark shack, inside of which was the broken-bearted girl. During the whole two years sie had seen no other mortal face than Bubeer's, and had suffered un- speakable abuse and torture from the brute. The trapper rescued the prisoner, taking her to the camp of Henry West on Saponic stream, where an expedition headed by her husband will be sent to bring her back to Lambert Lake. The officers of the nearest township will be asked 1o send in and remove Peter Bu- beer to a piace of detention or to the in- sane asylum at Augusta. The hogs will be shot and the camp where the poor bride passed so many months of the bit- terest anguish will be burned. MORPHINE 14 THE HOSPITAL. P Physicians to Investigate the Death of Florence kelm, Daughter of an Ex-Covernor of Kentucky. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 1I.—Florence Helm, said 10 be the daughter of ex-Gov- ernor Helm of Kentucky, who took mor- phine with suicidal intent last week at the nhome of Mrs. Roy, 35 West Sixty-fifth street, died to-day at the Roosevelt Hos- pital. The doctors at the hospital will inves- tigate her death. They are of the opinion that anoiher dose of morphine was taken by the young womas after her arrival at the hospital. The surgeons did all that cou'd be done for her, but she did not get any betier and died at 6:30 o’clock this morning. The doctors then said that the woman must bhave taken more poison. They do not know how she cou!d have got it. Mrs. Roy was there on Saturday just before Miss Helm grew worse. Mrs. Roy says she certainly did not take any morphine to Miss Helm in the ho-- pital. A brother of the dead woman, who lives in Richards, Vernon County, Mo., has been telegraphed for. The young woman had been living at Mrs. Roy’s house for some time. She had little money and seemed to find diffi- cuity in making ends meet. She was said to have been married 10 one Marshall and was known for a time as Josephine Mar- shall. Domestic troubles foilowed ths mar- riage, and she came to New York to live under her maiden name. How she be- came estranged from her family has not been learned. No relatives called at the hospital to see her. —_——— COMMIITED LESE MAJESTE. Editor Stenzel Ordered Arrested and Amprisoned for Eight Months.
