IRISH NATIONAL CONVENTION.
SOME LIVELY SCENES.
United Press Association. —By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. Lodnon, February 10. A stormy meeting, marked by several free fights, was held by the National Convention at Dublin. The trouble arose out of a small minority’s attempt to direct the leaders to refuse minor measures and oppose and embarrass the Government in every direction with a view to concentrating attention on Home Rule. Ultimately the atttempt was defeated and a vote of confidence in the Irish Parliamentary party was carried with enthusiasm. Mr O’Brien was shouted down when opposing the Irish Land Bill.
