REDMOND DEMANDS MORE
Irish Will Take All Can Get, but Try
to Amend in House Great Home
Rule . Demonstration " ly the
Colonial Premiers.
LONDON, April 23. Discussions are
still (coln on between the government
und John Redmond, chairman of the
Irish Parliamentary party In the
House of Commons, respecting: the
Irish bill which will be Introduced In
the House May 7. That there are wide
differences between the government
officials and the Irish Nationalists rel
ative to the terms of the measure la
not denied, but It has been agreed
that the bill shall be Introduced on the
date determined upon by Secretary for
Ireland Blrrell, and what the Nation
' allots are unable to fret from the Gov
' eminent they will endeavor to obtain
'by-amendment, which will be proposed
during the debate.
Far Short of Irish Demands.
Some of the Cabinet - members who
favor home rule were willing to con
cede many of the demands of the Irish
party, but the majority favored a
measure far short of whit Mr. Red
mond and his followers asked. There
have been many conferences on the
subject, and for a time it was feared
that the Introduction of the bill would
nave to be postponed, but the negotia
tions have . now reached a stage at
which it is possible to present the
measure to the House.
While the negotiations were going
on, those participating in them were
reticent as to the provisions of the bill,
but It can be stated broadly that it
establishes an Irish Council, partly
elective and partly nominative, which
shall administer the domestic affairs
of Ireland, exclusive of the army and
navy, but win have little or no legis
lative powers.
Colonial Premier for Home Rule.
This is far from what the National
ists desire. In the discussions Mr.
Itedmond strove for a greater measure
of home rule, and will carry the fight
Into the House of Commons. He will
not, however, decline to accept what
is offered as a sop to the Nationalists,
who have abstained from participation
in all the entertainments to the Co
lonial Premiers, even that given by the
. members of tho House of Commons,
and are arranging a dinner for the
Premiers on May , the eve of the in
troduction of the Irish bill. This will
be made the occasion of a frreat home
rule demonstration, all the Premiers
being pronounced advocates of Irish
self-government.
BRITAIN WINS' SPAIN' AS AVLX
Edward Scores Great Diplomatic
'Victory Over Kaiser.
MADRID, April 25 The meeting of
King Alfonso and King Kdward at Car
tagena, according to the Correspondent
i do la Espana, which says it has dlplo
1 matic authority for the story, resulted in
the perfection of a far-reaching under
standing for the purposes of war and
peace.
Everything concerning Morocco was rat
ified, everything in reference to the gen
eral European situation was discussed
and the basis was formulated of an agree
ment which Is now in the hands of the
diplomatists.
The outcome, according to the Corre
spondencia, is the result of the competi
tion between Germany and Great Britain
for an understanding with Spain In which
tlrrat Britain has scored all along. The
Corresnondencia represents Great Britain
as agreeing in effect that if Spain would
allow Spanish naval ports to be used by
Britain's fleet, the latter would help
(Spain In ihe conversion of her existing
debt. British squadrons would guarantee
the security of the Spanish coasts, the
Spanish land forces would, if necessary,
be allies of the British, and the British
forces would be at the disposal of Spain
should the latter need them.
Spain's obligation, under the agreement,
would be to put her arsenals in order and
to fortify her ports.

sults. Later reports describe the incident as
follows:

bugle signal, reared up and threw back
Its head, striking the Prince in the' face,
knocking him unconscious from the
saddle.
The Emperor's physicians lay em
phasis on the statement that Prince

his duties soon.

HAS ITS ANSWER ALREADY
New York Committee Will Not Ask
, Roosevelt to Retract.
NEW YORK, April 26. It was an
nounced that the committee appointed
by the Central Federated Union last
Sunday to go to Washington and ask
President Roosevelt to retract his state
ment that Moyer and Haywood were
"undesirable citizens" bad decided not
to go. This decision. It was added, was
the result partly of the letter of the
President to the chairman of the Moyer
Haywood Conference of Chicago confirm
ing Instead of retracting his original
statement.
PROUD OF ROOSEVELT'S TITLE
Champions of Moyer Adopt "Unde
sirable Citizen" as Honor. .
CHICAGO. April 25. President Roose
velt's Dhrase. "undesirable citizens," with.
which he branded Moyer and Haywood in
his letter to Honors J. Jaxon. was volun
tarily assumed last night by delegates
who attended a meeting of the Moyer
Haywood defense conference. The "stig
ma" was declared to be a "badge of hon
or." Incidentally, plans were laid for a
demonstration on the lake front on May
19. Chairman Barney Berlyn announced
that onlv "undesirable citizens" would be
Invited to participate.
The Chicago Federation of Labor is un
willing to shoulder the responsibility in
curred by the Roosevelt reply to Jaxon.
At a meeting of the executive board yes
terday it was determined to sidestep the
"boomerang" which descended on Jaxon.
"We haven't a word to say," declared
Secretary Nickels. "Jaxon does not rep
resent organized labor, and therefore be
will have to face his own troubles alone.
Labor cannot be held to account In any
way for Jaxon's protest to the President,
nor for what followsd."
The policy of the federation. It Is said,
will be to await an answer from th
President to the resolutions adopted by
the central labor body last Sunday, and
which were forwarded to Washington the
following day. It is thought the President
had not yet received the resolutions when

PLOT TO MURDER
Union Men Accused of Fiend
ish Conspiracy.
RESULT OF FEUD IN RANKS
. 1
San Francisco Electrical Workers
Conspire to Kill President of
Building Trades Council, Ac
cording to Confession.
-SAN FANCISCO, April 25. A sensa
tional story was sprung In labor circles ;
tonight of an alleged conspiracy and plot
to kidnap and murder P. H. McCarthy,
president of the Building Trades Coun
cil and one of the most prominent labor
leaders in this city. The alleged plot
Is laid bare in the remarkable aflldavit
and confession made by H. Shockley,
one of the alleged. conspirators. In which
he imolicates five other members of
Electrical Union No. 6. Harry Sullivan
and M. H. Carmody are under arrest.
Shockley Implicated John Young, Jack
Morris, Gus Burt, Gus Smith and J. Van
Frank. McCarthy disclosed the . alleged
scheme at a meeting of the Building
Trades Council and gave- to the press
what purported to be the confession of
Shockley, which had been sworn to be
fore Charles France, a notary public
While the conspiracy is alleged to have
emanated from Electrical Workers' Union
No. 6, which has been at war with the
Building Trades Council and was recent
ly expelled by that body, McCarthy de
clared that the Citizens' Alliance was
behind the plot and furnished the funds
with which the six men, according to
Shockley, were to go to Europe after
carrying out the plan.
How Murder Was to Be Done.
McCarthy, according to Shockley's con
fession, was to have been called to the
door of his home, knocked senseless with
a blackjack, placed In an auto waiting
nearby, taken to a lonely house on the
beach and there chloroformed, after
which the body was to have been thrown
Into the water.
The house for this purpose, declared
McCarthy, was rented on April U at 1243
Forty-eighth avenue, near the beach.
Since that date two attempts were made
to kidnap McCarthy and carry out the
scheme, according to Shockley s confes
sion. Twice the automobile called at
McCarthy's bouse, but each time the
scheme failed.
It Is alleged that two revolvers, some
rope, a sponge and a bottle of chloroform
were found in Carmody'B room, when
searched by the police. Sullivan, Car
mody'e roommate, although not implicate
ed by Shockley, was also arrested.
The motive for the alleged plot Mc
Carthy finds in the enmity that the mem
bers of the Electrical Workers Union No.
6 have for him because of a part that he
took as president of the Building Trades
Council in the expulsion of the union
from the council. The union had called
a strike of Its members on the Fab-mount
Hotel some weeks ago "Without the au
thorization of the Building Trades Coun
cil. McCarthy ordered the union back to
work, under threat of expulsion. Re
fusing to return to work, the union was
expelled and its members regarded by
the council and its affiliated unions as
non-union men, with whom they would
not work. In place of the expelled union,
a new union of electrical workers was or
ganized by tho Building Trades Council
Vice-President Sullivan of the expelled
union. In an Interview tonight, declared
that when traced back to its source, it
would be found that the alleged plot bad
been hatched by McCarthy himself.
Strike Leaves Xew York In Dark.
NEW YORK. April 25. Although the
public suffered Inconveniences last
night, owing to the queerest strike
this city has seen for many a day.
that of the lamplighters, the brunt of
the trouble was borne by the police.
Good-sized sections of the five bor
x oughs, especially the Bronx, the upper
- 7V
part of Manhattan and the outlying
parts of Queens, were In darkness un
til late, save for the light cast by
the three-quarters moon. Commission
er Bingham ordered the police to ren
der all the assistance possible.
Some of the patrolmen climbed tha
lamp-posts and used matches, a process
which required numerous matches, as
the night was rather breezy. Others
took along poles and tapers, but
ruined numerous mantles. Strikers put
out some of tlie lights lit, and police
reserves had to be called out to light
up Queens.
The strikers' union numbers about
400 men. These men are employes of
the Welsbach -Lighting Company. They
are mainly Italians. They are striking
for recognition of the union.
