IRISH LANDLORDS-
London, January 28. TICE Irish Landlords' Convention, held in Dublin, demands an inquiry by English Judges, into the working of the Land Acts since 1860. Lord Londonderry said the last Act aggravated the owners' hardship, that the sub - commissioners were now reducing the rents 30, 40, and 50 per cent., although the prices of produce had advanced since 1882. Certain classes desire to expatriate the owners, but if Ireland became the property of paupers the land would revert to the hands of a few moneylenders.
