It will be celebrated as Irish Relief day. Sub-committees are arranging to have it authorized as a Tag day of national magnitude, and to celebrate it with mass meetings, similar to that in New York, all over the country. Daily the committee is receiving offers from prominent Irishmen from all parts of the country, volunteering to act as speakers at the mass meet ings, to organize benefit perform ances in their home cities, to arrange nenent taseoail and athletic games and to hold bazaars, fairs and garden parties. Others are sending in shoals of money orders nnd checks. Conditions in Ireland, as disclosed by letters which were smuggled out of that country and which have been received here during the pp.st three days, are deplorable. These letters come from families which are in great want as an aftermath of the recent uprising. For the most part, out of work by the continuance of ma'tial law in Dublin and throughout the country. The letters tell of docks idle, mills closed and business houses that are shut down. Others of these fam ilies nrc those of the men who were killed during the fiphtinir. nnd still others are those of the men who have been arrested and taken to England to await trial, and the many others held in Ireland. "The work of relieving these peo ple,"' said Mr. Moore today, "is more than tho local authorities can cope with. America, which heeded the call of Belgium, Poland and Serbia so gen erously, is now called nnnn hv Tvn- land. The funds which we are sending I to ilrclnnd will cut down the increas ing number of deaths from privation. It will be taken to Ireland by an American committee, which will su pervise its distribution in co-operation with Archbishop Walsh of Dub lin, who has cabled that he will glad ly give that aid."
