Irlnh American Protectionists ) .
NKW Ytmtc , Oct. 25. Irishmen turned out
in full force to night to attend the rnaso
meeting of Irish protectionists at Madison
Square Garden. The Immense building was
crowded to overflowing half an hour before
the meeting was called to order , and the
adjacent streets were thronged with people
eager to set n glimpse of J , G. Blolne , the
attraction of the night. Several thousand
| > eroiis were in the building nt 3 o'clock ,
When Judge A. L. Morrison of Arizona , read ,
on behalf of Chairman Patrick Ford , an
address in which those passages occurred :
"We are hero to night , not as Irishmen , to
consult for the Interest * ) of Ireland , but as
Americans , to discuss American affairs with
.American . ends In view. All arc not n for
eign clement. Loose phraseology might
Imply that wo refuse to so ro-
Kard ourselves. This land Is our
tune in d in tl.o pns > iit national contest
\c s 'n only the republic and are cjncerned
enl > for her wclfuii. Tor us , partj lines are
obliterated. We kiow only Ami-it-ans and
unti Anvrlcans. Thu men who lights under
lhi I a of Engl.s i free trade , no matter of
tvhal rate ho may bo , whether ho luiousit
or not. is practically our enemy , and on the
other liand , the nmn who tights under the
Jlng of protection to American n'jor , whether
native or foreign , that man wo hail us a com-
radu , brother and American. "
Patrick Egan and David Bcalv spoke , and
Mr Illume was announced after this message
lixm General Harrison hud been read :
Patrick Ford , chairman Madison Square
Garden meeting : I gratefully accept the
congratulations of the Irish-American pro-
Li c.iotiists now assembled in muss meeting In
Madison Square Garden , and In return I
congratulate them upon the magnificent Impulse -
pulse their intelligent /cul has given to the
cause of protection in this campaign.
BKNJAMIN HAKIUSOX.
Mr. Blalne said : Mr. Chairman 1 speak
to night to men of Irish birth , but not in re
lation to their connection with the British
empire. I speak to them as citizens of this
Kieut American republic [ upplausol , and of
the duties they ewe and to the policies they
bhonlil pursue , and I gather the strongest
lesson for an Irishman In America is to bo
found In his experience In his native land ,
the fairest aud almost the richest portion of
till Europe , destined to poverty and to suffer
ing and to the exile of millions of her
Children becausoof mlsgovcrmnent ; destined
tirimnrily to utter financial ruin because her
people were not allowed to adopt for her
own use and her own advantage the prlnci-
of protection for which all Irishmen
Elo struggle in America. [ Cheers. ] So
great is the agricultural wortii of Ireland
that only forty years ago she shipped greater
amounts of produce across the channel to
lOngland than the United States exported to
fell countries greater than the empire of
Kussla sent to other countries of Europe
and with all this where is Ireland today )
Hlii ! shares the fate of all countries
purely agricultural. She shares the fate that
would in u larger degree overtake the United
States if the free trader was to huvo his way
and reduce us to nn agricultural people
t applause ) , and yet to-night the fear Is that
majority of the Irish voters of America or
Irish-American voters will cast their ballots
On the 6th day of November as the present
government desires them to cast it. ( Cries
bf "No , No "J I wish you could make that
Mno" a largo majority of the Irish vote of the
united States. For the last four months
Ihe democrats have been denying and repub
licans been affirming that the first , last and
constant wish of England was that Clove-
land's administration should be sustained by
the whole force and effect of English public
opinion , and just when they had begun to
pinko an Impression upon the American people
ple that such might not bo the fact wo have
n letter of the British minister to Washing
ton himself [ groans | urging the re-election
Of Cleveland. And you can never interpret
that letter until you know the letter that
called It forth. To get the whole gist and
meaning of the correspondence you must
have both sldos of it , and this letter from
the British minister was called forth by a
letter from California written by a native of
England.
Blalne then red the letter , m which the
prritcr states to Mr. Sackvlllo West that his
faith had been shaken by President Clove-
land's administration , and writes to the
British minister to dissolve Ills doubt , and
Mr. West says to the California man that the
recent proceeding of the president Is only n
little by-play which does not mean anything.
| Io need not be afraid , and all other English
Voters can go ahead with perfect confidence.
Three ministers of the United States , re
turned Mr. Blalno , certainly two , have had
their walking papers for offenses less grave
than that , and to-night , If the American min
ister at England should write to an English
rotcr advising him to supiwrtjoither side , bo
Would bo politely Invited to sail homo by the
bcxt steamer. And then what does the sec
retary of state del Why , he says It was no
harm. It was only a private letter. Well ,
Suppose it was a private circular , suppose he
Issues ten thousand of them and marks them
private on the corner , and there came dis
covery I I suppose Secretary Bayard would
Bay , "Not n particle of harm so long
Us you mark them private , and so long
H you mark them private they
Will have so much more beneficial effect
When they got Into the public print. " And
to this has done its perfect work. It was
written for G rover Cleveland. It was writ
ten In and of him to bring the the whole
haturaliicd English vote to his support ,
nd Cleveland's premier , nt the head of his
cabinet , says It is all right and wo arc to
buvo the British minister at Washington
giving bis opinion as to what wo should do in
this country in our political and our domestic
parties.
Ono remark bo makes I wish to comment
n particularly , for 1 call It an insult to the
epubllcan party. I protest in the name ot
hat party against Lord Sackvillo-West sny-
ng that the rejection by the republican sen-
ito of the outrageous and miserable and
lastardly fishery treaty was a more political
use for this campaign. Ho has no right to
ay so. There never has been a senate here
tofore In the history of this lopublic , demo
cratic , or whig , or republican , or federal , that
Vvould for ono moment bavo entertained that
fishery treaty. Not ouo. And Lord Sack
Villo-Wcst has no right to sav to the
American people that the senatorial rcpro
bntativcs of that great party , in looking
fcftor national honor , are merely committing
political ruse. Ho will find that a political
puso of that kind will lastso long as the honor
Cf the American flag Is to bo preserved and
the right of the baiuj fishermen of America
Is to bo protected.
> Mr. Blalno then passed to a discussion of
the tariff , from which the following is an extract -
tract : Another thing , my friends , wo are in
the habit ot discussing the tariff question
very largely on theory. I think that a solid
fact Is worth a ton of theory. You may
philosophize on the doctrine of free trade und
en the doctrine of protection to the end , and
1 want now to give you a solid fact. Up to
this date , up to this 25th day of October , in
the year of our Lord 18SS , alnco G rover Cleveland -
land was Inaugurated there huvo been Im
ported Into thU country of iron und steel and
Ihiir products an amount equal to the cnor-
inous sum of $100,000,000 , and they say wo
bavo got too high a tariff. It that iron and
Btecl had beoninado hero it meant good wages
for a whole year for 1100,000 luborm-s
( applause ) and for an average sized family de
pendent upon him. It meant 1,500,000 persons
to bo fed and backs to bo clothed out of
1100,000,000. ( Applause. ) This Is homo
rule malting your own manufactures on
j-our own loll. _

Jo Tan BEB. ] The fact that orators who are
fcdvocatlng the election of Cleveland trc-
tueutly seem to bo at a loss for language in
tohtcb to express the approbation which thej
feel towards him , does not always moan
that these same speakers nave any personal
liking for tbo gentleman now In the v/liito
liouse. A letter bos boon received bore from
i prominent demoprat In a western spate ,
vbo bas been beard on tbo stump durj j

irotnlnont candidate for nn Important office ,
n Which he says :
I like Blank [ mentioning another Writer
on political economy ] . Ho 1 a nuprgcstcr.
Us economics and thosi of Cleveland com-
taro as the stars of Ao sky do with
ho brass buttons on a coachman's
Ivory. Grover Is a brutal bungler.
Us election Is not certain , but his
calling is. Ho was born for n butcher. Ho
has nil the refinement required for that trade
and no more. General Blaok would Imvo
nadc n far bettor vice presidential candidate
ban Grandma Greenback Thurman. I am
or a real reform , and not a pretended onc.ns
to the whole revenue system of the country ,
and as 1 am not beholden to , nor under any
obligation whatever to Cleveland and don't
ndmlro him , my efforts to bring votes to his
ickct huvo no regard to him as an object.

crablo discussion the whole subject was
referred to a committee , to report at the

All America 12 , Chicago S.
Spalding's Australian combination , con
sisting of the celebrated Chicago team and a
team made up of players from the various
league and association players , edified about
ono thousand eight hundred people at the ball
park yesterday afternoon. The exhibition
calls for no especial note , ns it was tame nnd
uninteresting throughout , as exhibition
games alwavs aro. Of course , the game was
a line one and well played , yet It lacked that
real incentive to victory that never falls to
make a struggle between two strong teams
an enthusiastic and exciting event. The All
Americas were easy winners. They
batted Ryan , who pitched for the Chi-
cages up to tbo sixth inning , at will ,
nnd piled UP the runs in disgusting profus
ion. Tener displaced Ryan In the sixth but
fared little better. ; the All Americans had on
their slugging habiliments and they contin
ued to bang the sphere with refreshing vigor.
Hcaly , the old Indianapolis twirler , was in
the box for 'tho All Americans , and bo
pitched a magnificent game , holding the
powerful hitters of the Chicago team down
to llvo safe drives. Tlio game was devoid of
excitement from the outset , nnd tbo big
ciowd heaved a sigh of relief when the show
was over. Following Is appended the full
