The Irish Delegates
The Irish delegates (Messrs. Devlin and Donovan) have, had something like a -triumphal progress through Australia. From all sections. of people in those homeruled lands they and ' tlieir mission have received a friendly greeting :—: — ' Sirs, you are w.elcome to our house ; It must appeal 1 in other ways than words '. One of the ' other ways * in which Australia showed the delegates a welcome to its house was the generous pile of contributions— estimated to touch £15,000— in aid of the cause of Home Rule for Ireland. We have been in communication with the delegates, and on Monday night received the following cabled reply from Mr. Devlin," who was then in Tamworth, New South Wales : ' Letter just received. Can only give December and half of January in New ' Zealand. Will consult Mr. Donovan and write you fully at end of week '.
