labor question, but there were no surface
Indications of dissension when the elec

J. C Nunemacber, of Kentucky, urged
the association to present a united oppo
sition to what ho termed "the anarchistic
end socialistic element which controls
many of the labor unions," but declaring
that the association must admit the right
and justice of organized labor properly
conducted.
"Let this be our motto." he said; "fair
play to the worklngman and America for
us all. employer and employe." The sen
timent was violently applauded.
The delegates then took up in detail
questions of change In by-laws, devoting

Norman Fay, of Chicago, addressed the
delegates in support of his resolution

through the Department of Commerce
end Labor, to prepare for general tariff
revision.
3. O. Bigley, of Massachusetts, opposed

GOMPERS ANSWERS PARRY.
Says President of Mnnnfactnrers lias
Lost Ills Reason.
WASHINGTON, April 10. President
GomDers. of the American Federation of
Labor, today gave out a statement In re
ply to the annual report of President
Furry, of the Manufacturers' Association,
which was read before that body In New
Orleans. It siys:
If there were any doubt that Mr. Parry hd
taken lve of his reason. the report tor ha
rangue) which he has made to his convention
demonstrates it beyond say doubt. If the
Manufacturers' Association in convention at
New Orleans Indorses Mr. Parry's undigested
and malicious antagonism to the efforts of the
workers to secure material and moral Improve
ment, they simply writs themselves down to hla
low level and stand committed with him tor
all the lnlury which must rollow Irom ms
rabid utterances, hla venomoua and Ignorant
antagonism, which rnuat provoke only resent
ment and retaliation.
Organized labor la the result of our Indus
trial development ana environment, it pur
poses to secure a large share of the production
of wealth. It seeks to secure thla object by
peaceful and lawful methods. It alms to estab
lish more rightful relations oeiween man ana
man.
Organized labor la here to stay yea. to stay
lonr after Mr. Parrjrs came snail nare neen
forsotten. It has survived many encounters
with men of Mr. Parry's caliber.
Organized labor seeks no such conflict as Mr.
Tarry would promote, nor will It run sway
from It. We desire Industrial ana social peace.
and are making for It, Mr. Parry and thou
who act with him to the contrary notwlth
standing. IVe shall be enabled soon to discern to what
extent the manufacturers, of the United States
are In accord with Parry.? At this writing w.
are confident that he represents but an lnfln-
Heslmal part of the American employers. Or
rantzed labor faces the future, confident and
self-reliant, and hurls back Into the teeth of
Mr. Parry his foul vituperation ana abuse.

BOON TO IRELAND.
(Con tinned from First Page.)
who is simultaneously presiding at a pit
vate meeting of the landlord's committee.
sent word to John Redmond, the Irish
leader, suggesting that the land confer'
ence reconvene Saturday after the opin
ion of the national convention on the land
bill Is known, so that both landlords and
tenants may then discuss their mutual
objections. Mr. Redmond was unable
to decide on the proposition until after to
day's proceedings, for which lengthy
agenda had been provided.
These consisted of many proposed
amendments to tho details of Secretary
Wyndham's proposals. The chief movers
were William O'Brien and Michael Davltt
The former, while congratulating Ireland
on the fact that the British Ministry had
introduced a bill accepting In prlncipl
after centuries of struggle that the land
should be restored to the people, urged the
delegates to press amendments enlarging
the financial scope of the bilL Mr.
O'Brien, however, asked the convention
to entrust to the Parliamentary party
the power and responsibility of eventually
dealing in committee stag with the
amendments.
O'Brien Champions the BilL
While begging the delegates to let their
Parliamentary representatives settle the
matter, Mr. O'Brien attacked the land'
lords. Irish Judges and British rule with
the same virulence which has always
marked his speeches, to the Intense de
light of the audience, which, swayed by
his eloquence; hissed and cheered alter
natively. He concluded by saying that
if properly amended Mr. Wyndham's bill
would "make the peasants as safe as
king on his throne in the possession of
their land." They would never again have
to stand trembling in the rent office. Mr,
O'Brien added:
"If we go on it is not too much to say
that in the next generation it will be as
hard to find a man who has witnessed an
eviction as it is now to find a man who
has not
Pleading for a friendly spirit In the dis
cussion, Mr. O'Brien remarked:
Tf all goes weU It will be the greatest
resurrection of hope, joy and happiness
that has visited this country In a thou
sand years. It is the biggest thing Ecg'
l!sh statesmanship has ever done toward
restoring the soil of Ireland to Irishmen."
Mr. O'Brien ended by saying that
while. Mr. Redmond himself did not want
to entangle the land question with home
rule, they mgiht as well "try to turn
honest Irish blood Into red Ink as to allay
his own and Ireland's desire for eventual
home rule."
One of the results might perhaps event
ually be to kill the English opposition to
a Parliament on College Green, where all
Irishmen without distinction of creed and
politics might meet and legislate for Ire
land's good.
Move to Reject BUI Failm.
When Patrick White, M. P., rose and
sBBlf'ffiqjBB8gBsWBTsft
moved tho rejection of the land "hill as not
meriting the support of the Irish party.
tho delegates hissed him. and aa. angry
cry of "Withdraw- came from an aides.
Mr. Bedmenel 'finally secured a hearing
for Mr. White, who said the bill was one
of the most faulty measures ever jntro-
duced and was entirely la favor, of the
landlords. Another speaker declared Mr.
Wyndham's hill would "be "a mills tone of
debt around the tenants' necks. But
thla brought forth howls of derision from
the delegates, whom Mr. Redmond could
scarcely keep In order.
The good temper of the assemblage was
restored by a landlord. Pierce CMahoney,
former Parnelllte member of Parlia
ment, vigorously supporting the bill.
while a speech in Gaelic from Canon Mc
Fadden added further to the good humor.
The announcement that Mr. White's
motion had been rejected by an over
whelming majority created tremendous
enthusiasm. Only a few hands were held
up in favor of Mr. White's motion, while
hundreds were waved when "to the con
trary" was called, and hats were thrown
up and the convention enthusiastically
committed itself to the land bill, subject
to such amendments as the Irish Parlia
mentary party can secure.
Davltt Given Ovation.
Michael Davltt then received a great
ovation. He demanded the release of
Colonel Arthur Lynch, who ts undergoing
sentence of life Imprisonment after
having been convicted of high treason,
and one other Irish agitator who is still
In jail and whose continued imprison
ment, said Mr. Davltt, was unbecoming
to the spirit of peace between Ireland
and England. Mr. Davltt expressed many
differences- of opinion with Mr.- O'Brien.
Mr. Redmond and the majority of the
delegates, but he promised to ablde by the
decision of the convention, voiced his un
dying hatred of Irish landlords and said
he doubted It Mr. O'Brien was right in
believing that they would settle' down and
help in the development of the country
after the passage of the bill.
Mr. Davltt also made a strong plea In
behalf of tho Irish agricultural laborer.
which he will elaborate tomorrow, when
the suggested amendments are taken up
In detail. He maintained that the bill,
even as amended, would not put an end
to the land struggle, and moved In friend
ly terms, an amendment to Mr. O'Brien's
motion, providing that the Nationalist
members of Parliament refer the bill
back to the convention for final approval,
after passing the committee stage in the
House of Commons, so that the people
themselves may say it they accept it as
amended, and that tho convention be
merely adjourned instead of dissolved.
Mr. Redmond, in reply, paid a tribute
to Mr. Davltt's fairness and the benefit
derived from his presence and support.
but he sold he believed his amendment
would be construed as a vote of want of
confidence in the Irish Parliamentary
party.
Mr. O'Brien followed with an Impas
sioned appeal on the earns line. He de
clared Mr. Davltt's amendment menaced
the Irish party.
Mr. Davltt then, amid tremendous
cheering, withdrew his amendment, on
whose merits the convention seemed
fairly equally divided, and the threatened
split was averted.-
T. F. O'Connor Sums Up.
T. P. O'Connor, summing up tho results
of 4he day's debate, said that they showed
that they all practically agreed that the
bill is the greatest measure ever Intro
duced, that landnralsm Is condemned, to
die; that no more compulsion will be
shown to tenants than to landlords; that
the financial terms have been improved.
and that not one evicted tenant is left
without redress. Today, he added, they
were "celebrating one of the proudest
victories over oppression that ever nation
had won. The bells throughout the land
were ringing out the death of landlordism
and ringing In the birth of new Ireland.'
Major Redding, of Baltimore, Md..
-president of the United Irish League of
America, said he was delighted with the
unanimity which characterized the meet
Ing. He had never seen anything like
this and voiced American sympathy with
the meeting. Mr. Bedding's remarks were
received with loud cheers.
Mr. O'Brien's original motion was then
carried unanimously and the convention
adjourned until Friday, after six hours
continuous session.

CLAIMS ALL THE CREDIT.
Tariff LeaRne Says It Chanrred Roose
velt's Views on Revision.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. April 11 The American Protective
Tariff League claims to have been respon
sible for President Roosevelt's change of
attitude on the question of tariff revision.
Not only this, but the league claims to
have been the Influence that prevented the
ratification of the numerous reciprocity
treaties negotiated by Mr. Kasson some
time ago. nd boasts that at the next
session it will render ineffective the Cuban
treaty ratified at the recent session of the
Senate.
In its modesty the league declares that
notice was recently served on President
Roosevelt that his nomination could be de
feated, and would be attempted by the
league, if he continued to advocate tariff
revision. This, It says, wrought the
change.
In this ssme connection is Is observed
that prominent Democrats in interviews
disclose a general trend of sentiment in
their party toward "tariff revision," rath
er than toward an overthrow of present
schedules. They expect the tariff to be
the leading Issue in the next cimpaign
and are attempting to crystallize senti
ment in that direction. Such prominent
Democrats as Senator Martin, of Vir
ginia, declare conservatism must be
shown in reducing the tariff, and that the
day has passed when radical and extreme
views in connection with tariff revision
can be entertained.
TO DESTROY EVIDENCE.
Plot to mow Up Vault Where Dis
puted Dallota Are Stored.
CHICAGO. April 16. The Tribune to

the vaults of the election commissioners
rooms with dynamite waa reported to
Chief of Police O'Neill last night, follow
ing the news from Springfield that the
Supreme Court had ruled in favor of the
board in the Lorimer-Durbbrow contest

to divulge the name of his" informant.
but he went to the rooms and made an.
examination of the surroundings.
Without consulting the commissioners
a detail of policemen were assigned to
duty on the stairways and on the root
and are now guarding the place.
"A time fuse isr to be placed above the
vaults." said the Chief's Informant. "It
will be attached to a sufficient amount of
dynamite to wreck the vaults completely
and will destroy tne contents.
The investigation showed that two stair
ways lead to the rooms where the vaults
are located. Between the ceiling of this
room and the roof of the building la a
vacant space, more than six feet high.
Steam pipes, colla of wire and braces fill
the attic-like place. Lathing covered
with a coat of plaster separates the place
