BRITISH BOYCOTT
AMERICAN MOVEMENT Rec. Aug. 14, 5.0 p.m. | NEW YORK, Saturday. | An organisation, known as the Irish i Race, opened to-day a convention, j at which there were some 700 delegates present, all partisans of Mr. de 1 Valera. The conference laid down plans to boycott British goods in retaliation for the tariff war against Ireland. Mr. John Hughes, a Boston attorney, gave the key-note in an address when he said the English politicians thought they were going to weaken Ireland by agTicultural duties on exports, but they were deluded, because the Irish people of American, Canada, Australia and South Africa were going to stand behind the Irish in Ireland and help them. The delegates represent many parts of the United States and Canada.
