TO THE IRISH PEOPLE OF AMERICA:
Wa commit to you tho solemn duty of DONATING your sharo to the work In whloh wo ro onirajrud. Wo apiicul to you in a (front ci-IhIm Unit In nioro daiiKoroiw than any
that has heretofore happened to the national life of Ireland. The resources of our peoplo at home and their proposition to make a stand for freedom aro severely taxed. Com
bined for causes against which we are compelled to struggle, whether they may not succeed today, as In tho punt, depends In no small measure on your exertions.
The announcement of this proposal (withheld from Ireland for six years after the passage of tho bill the power of Imposing or interfering with tho town taxes) caused the
house of commons to stand aghast. It was received with a protest. It was left to us to protest in the name of the Irish peoplo against a proposal involving national humiliation
and calculated to reduce the Irish legislature to impotencv. JOHN Ifl. ItKDMONl),

London, Juno 27. A number of ques
tion were asked by members of the
house of commons regarding the found
ering of the Victoria.
Replying to these questions the lit.
Hon. Sir U. Kay-Hhuttleworth, secre
tary to tho admiralty, said there was
reason to liojw from telegrams receive.1
from the British consul general at Tri
poli, Mr. N. T. Moore, that the number
of twit-sons drowned bv the sinking of the
Ship would be under the estimates at
Irst made. Some of the men belonging
to the Victoria had been detached
tfltnnfiTftrilv from that vessel, and do
layed for duty on other vessels of the
fleet during the maneuvers. These men
had of course escaned. Bo far as now
Muwrtalnod. the lost numbered BOO,
comprising 22 officers and 8!W men. The
saved numbered SH7, Including so om
cers and 201 men,
Don't Wut QtiKKtloiM Anked.
Dr. Washburn asked if the govern'
tnent intended koep tho San Pareil, the
eistor ship of the Victoria, in commission
or to have her ordered home from the
Mediterranean In order to have experts
consider her construction ana ascertain
whut. tf anvthinir. was tho matter with
It. The admiralty strongly deprecated
the asking of such questions, saying that
the time had not come when they ought
to be asked. This statement was greeted
with cries of "Hear!" "Hearl"
Hllvor For India.
In the house of commons Mr. Glad
stone gave information similar to that
iriven in the house of lords by the Earl
of Kimberly. He added that gold would
not be made a leiral tender at present
Regarding the silver now on the way to
Inlla. Mr. Gladstone said that the gov
ernment of India had been instructed
that it was open to it to admit this silver
to the mints if it thought fit. The Right
lion. J. G. Goschon, formerly chancellor
of the exchequor, asked if the admission
to free coinage of the silver now going to
India would not establish a ureat injury
or elToct tho destruction of such silver as
was in the hands of tho natives. Mr.
Goschon said that the value of tho silver
possessed by the natives amounted to
1on.nOV.000 miv. Renlvinur to Mr.
Goschon, Mr. Gladstone said that he was
not in possession of precise information,
hnt he assumed that the Indian govern-
inent would not make discrimination to
the disadvantage of tho natives holding
uncoined silver. Doubtless, most of tho
uncoined silver referred to by Mr
Goschon was in the form of ornaments
worn by the natives.

mining upon an Indian policy, as, it an
international agreement should not be
obtained, the United States might sud
denly itop the coinage of silver, leaving
India unprepared. The other communi
cations discuss the fall in the rupee
values, and the fluctuation in the rates
of exchange!. In a minute Mr.
Barbouf""flnahdal secretary of India,
opposes the .stoppago of free coinage
until It becomes evident that the United
States will not adopt free coinage. Mr.
Barbour estimates that the total active
circulation will amount to 15,000,000
rupees, while a much larger proportion
is hoarded.
Impolitic to Makediilil the Ntnmlsrd.
To establish a gold currency with a
full legal tender currency, composed en
tirely of gold, It would be necessary to
withdraw from circulation 1,150,01)0,000
rupees, replacing them by JC77,O0O,O0() in
gold. He therefore contended tnat witn
gold standard in India, a large portion
of the circulation must continue in sil
ver, with silver a legal tender to any
amount. If with metals be maintained
circulation a gold coinage to the
total amount of A'15,000,000 will suffice.
Mr. Long in a minute to the council in
August, IHi)2, discusses tho adoption of
the gold standard, and he concludes ny
suggesting that the ratio be about 1 to 20.
In a telegram from the fcarl or Kim
berly, dated June, 1HINI, the earl an
nounces that the recommendations of the
Ilorsoholl commission were adopted by
the council at Simla. In advising the
Indian government to exchange gold at
the rate of fld to tho rupee, the commis
sion says the object is to guard against a
considerable rise in the exchange. Here'
after the ratio ought to be raised, if cir
cumstances make it advisable.

Nkw Yohk, June 27. The Evening
World published an extra, in which was
the following cable dispatch from Tripoli,
regarding the sinking of her majesty s
battleship Victoria:
The Fleet Making For nariior.
Alxmt ft o'clock last Thursday the
Enirlish fleet came in sight of Kl Mina,
the jKtrt and town of Tripoli. It was
coming from the northeast, and making
directly for tho harbor. The five big
ironclads Victoria, Camperdown, Edln
burgh, Nile and Sans I'arell were
drawn up in full front. The Victoria
was in the center, the Camperdown was
on her left, and the Edinburgh on her
right.
Markham's Fatal Unlay.
When they were within five miles of
shore, Vice Admiral Sir George Tryon
siirnalod to turn and form in double line,
Whether because Admiral Markham of
tho Camperdown could not believe this
movement was to be tried when the
ships were so clo together, or because
ho thought Admiral Tryon mm unseat
tod the distance, ho did not ne'
about executing tio order, but signaled
that ho did not understand it. The Vic
toria began to turn nt once as she still
held the signal. The Camperdown no
longer hesitated, but began to turn. The
brief delay, however, had lieen fatal.
No Opportunity to Kneape,
The Victoria had nearly turned and
tho Camperdown, swinging around, bore
down upon her. The 12-foot ram of the
Camperdown struck the hull of the Vic
toria just in front of her armored bulk
head and plunged into the thin plates of
her starboard side. Admiral Tryoji tried
