A. Fencing Club. worst records The scene carried us back to the worst days of Parnell' a Home Rule Struggle and must still further lessen for the Irish party tha sympathy that has long been waning. The Times declares that Parliament cannot pass over the "Hooligan conduct of tha Irish members, unless it Is to be degraded In character below the level of the Austrian Relchsrath. "Drastic must be meted out to this it says "which la all tha more unpardonable because clearly deliberate.

CRITICISED IX DUHLIX Irish Times Charges That the Brntal Exhibition Was a Bold Advertisement Preliminary to Sending a Mendicant Pilgrimage to the Land of the Dollar Dublin, March 6 Commenting upon the last nights scene In the House of Commons the Freeman's Journal rejoices that Ireland at last possesses a party that will teach Westminster that if the rights of Ireland are to be sacrificed, the character and privileges of Parliament will accompany the sacrifice. The Irish Times says: "Despairing of getting sufficient support and maintenance in London from their own countrymen those pretending to represent Ireland are meditating a mendicant pilgrimage to the land of the and fondly imagine brutality will serve as a bold advertisement. BOSTON TEAM COMPLETED American League Makes Big Inroads on the South End Aggregation Notes of the Sporting World It la announced that the Boston team of the American League, which will play, on the Huntlngton-avenue grounds this season, Is practically completed. James Collins, the star third baseman of the Boston National League team, will manage and captain the nine. That ColUna has Jumped from hla old team to tha new organisation waa confirmed positively by Charles Somers, who telegraphed the information that Collins had signed an American League contract for the position on the Boston team.

The cream of the talent at the South End grounds last year has therefore deserted, for Dlneen will pitch for the new club in this city. Freeman will play at first and Stahl at centre-field. The two catchers of last year's team at the South End grounds are also out, Clarke having gone some time ago to Washington. It was announced yesterday that Sullivan will catch for the Chicago American League team. Duffy la already manager' of the Milwaukee nine in the new organisation.

It Is further rumored that Victor Willis will be one of the pitchers at the Huntlngton-avenue field this season. The other members of the Boston American League team are pretty well settled. The catchers will be Crlger and Schreckengost. Crlger was brought out by Tebeau In Cleveland four years ago, and when in shape la one of the moat valuable catchers In the country today. He was with St.

Louis last season. Schreckengoat is from the same club. He had a fair record with the Clevelands. Parent Is scheduled for second base and Ferris for short, while Collins will, of course, he found at third. The outfield will be Stahl, Dolan and Hemphill.

Word was received from Cleveland yesterday that Hemphill had been signed. He will be twenty-four years of age next month. He was horn at Greenville, and first secured an engagement with the Saginaw Club of the Interstate League. In lMC he played with Dayton, and In ISOS with Grand Rapids. In 1119 he was released to the St.

Louis Club of the National League, hut was transferred to Cleveland In August of that year. Last season he was farmed to the Kansis City Club. He played In 1.11 games, and ranked fourth of the players who participated la inn games or more, his hatting percentage being Three times he made four hits and fourteen times three lilts In games last season, nnd In a stretch of six games In one series mad- 17 safe hits. His fielding percent age was He played 27 grimes without a mivpiay. made two errors the next game, then played fifteen games without an error, making 42 out of 43 games In which he fl-Mcil perfectly.

He stole 28 bases. Pitcher Virgil Garvin of the Chicago Natiornl Longue club signed a contract with the Milwaukee American League club yesterday. Pitcher Peter IViwlIng's contract has been received by Manager Duffy. WILD SCENES IN THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT London, March 6 Last night's debate In the House of Commons led to an uproarious demonstration among Che Irish members, which ended In the naming and forcible ejection of twelve Nationalist members. The House throughout the evening was discussing the education vote of 17,804,000 in committee of supply.

Deputy Speaker J. W. Lowther wes In the chair. The Nationalists contended that the grants to the Catholic schools were Insufficient. They also opposed the vote on other grounds.

About midnight Mr. Balfour applied the closure on the education estimates. The Nationalists shouted Gag, and refused to leave the House when the division was taken. The chairman twice asked them to retire to the division lobby, bat they shouted "Certainly not." Mr. Flavin cried: I protest against the way all Irish votes are The chairman then Intimated Chad he must report the matter to the Speaker.

In the meantime the other members had returned from the lobbies amid some uproar, thirty or forty Irishmen remaining In their seats. The Speaker having returned to the House, the chairman reported the matter to him. and the Speaker asked If the Irish members still refused to obey the order, and there were cries of "Yes, yea. The Speaker then named sixteen recalcitrants, and Mr. Balfour moved their suspension.

This was agreed to without a division. The Speaker then ordered them to withdraw, but they refused amid great uproar. The Speaker called upon the sergeant-at-arms to remove them. They shouted defiance. The deputy sergeant-at-arms advanced and asked them to leave.

Still they refused. At thle a number of officers and policemen entered to enforce removal. Mr. Eugene Crean. member for southeast Cork, struggled desperately against removal and there was a free fight on the floor lasting for five minutes, other Irishmen assisting Eventually he was carried out bodily by six policemen amid yells and cheers.

The police then returned and carried out each of the remaining recalcitrants In the same manner, although there was no further actual resistance. Six policemen sufficed for each member with the exception of Mr. Flavin, who Is a big man. and required eight. Many as they were being carried out waved their hands and shouted God save Ireland.

Those who were removed included Messrs. John Culllnan. Patrick White, Patrick McHugh, William Lundon. William Abraham, Patrick Dugan. Anthony Donelan, James GUhooly, Thomas McGovern and Jeremiah Jordan.

The trouble arose through Mr. Balfour closuring the whole education estimates without giving an opportunity to discuss the Irish votes. At one o'clock the Speaker said: "The House will now resume proceedings In committee and I trust that honorable members will now leave the House." The Irish members shouted that they would not leave. The Chairman again put the vote, on account, adding, there being no tellers or noes, that the ayes had It. Amid laughter and cheers the House adjourned.

The excitement occasioned by last night's scenes In the House of Commons Is still very evident; and when the House met at noon today, in view of possible disturbances, the whole police force on duty at St. Stephens had been mobilized er.d reenforced by reserves. Mr. John L. Redmond speedily rose and raised a question of privilege arising from "the painful scenes of last night.

He claimed that members had been suspended without proper steps being taken to Identify them, and that their rerioval had been accompanied by undue violence. He waa satisfied, he said, that members were suspended who had actually gone to the lobby to participate in the division. The Speaker, Interrupting, pointed out that Mr. Redmond waa not raising a question of privilege, but a point of order. If he was properly Informed of any wrongful suspension he (the Speaker) would be glad to take steps to rectify them.

Sir. Redmond subsequently tried to move an adjournment, and appealed to Mr. Balfour to give the members an opportunity for discussion. Mr. Balfour, remarking that he presumed that It was desired to Institute means for preventing a recurrence of the scenes cf last night, promised to consider what opportunity for discussion could be given.

The subject waa then dropped. LIMERICK'S MAYOR OS THE ROW He Thinks tbe Affair Dae In Part to an Attempt to Make Political Capital Irish Love of a Shindy Also Fig a red Hon. John Daly, lord mayor of Limerick, who la In this city, does not appear to have much sympathy for the agitators who are row causing trouble in the British Parliament. He said: "I do not quite understand what these men are trying to accomplish. But from what I know of some of the inert involved, I would say that their main object is to gain popularity among the Irish people at the cost of opposing the chairman.

Such things tickle the fancy of some of the people thsy represent, but beyond that amounts to nothing. They hare probably been expelled from the House, which means for twenty-four hours only, and If there was any fear of further punishment they would be careful to do nothing to merit It. The Speaker could, with the consent of Parliament, confine them, but there is no danger of that In these cases. Another thing that convinces me that tha trouble la caused only by those who seek to curry favor with the people Is the fact that none of the great leaders of the Irish Nationalists in Parliament have taken any part In It. If It were of Importance all the Irish representatives would be Into It In a body.

You may rest assured that the whole thing amounts to nothing and la only done for effect. Most of the men I know, and with one or two exceptions they amount to nothing In the Irish movement. Culllnan represents Tipperary. Ho la not a brilliant man, but Is stubborn and might hang to anything he undertook. White waa elected from Dublin.

I do not know him. McHugh la the mayor of Sligo as well as a member of Parliament. He la an Intelligent man and would have the moral courage to do anything he undertook or considered hla duty without any fear of the cost to himself. He la one of the exceptions among those whose names are given In the despatch. He la a prominent man In hla own county and has something to lose, but that would not deter him If he thought he waa doing good for those he represents or tor his country.

Loudon represents Limerick. From what I know of him I would aay that he would mix up in tins trouble to curry favor with the people. Abraham la one of the men who would have most to lose by opposing the Speaker. He represents one of the districts in the city of Cork, and a man of Intelligence, education and moral, courage. He lives In London all the time, and does business with London people.

He Is of Hebrew extraction and Is Hebrew in face, although a Christian. Duggan represents a part of Tyrone. He Is an ex-natlonal school teacher, and Is unknown to fame and to the people at large. I cannot conceive of him doing anything except for what he could get from It by bringing hla name before the people. Flavin Is member from Kerry.

He is a sturdy Individual, and by nature would be Inclined to get Into any trouble for the fun of being la excitement. The others I do not know, and they are not In any way prominent In the Irish political world.

Market warn 17 SPRING FLOWER SHOW Horticultural Society Exhibition This Month Will Be a Remarkable One Sprague Estate in Brookline Will Show Fine Plants Considering that the spring flower show of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society this year will be the last Important exhibition to be held in the present hall on Tre-mont street, the members of the society are making unusual preparations for the event. Pome of the members of the society have been permitted to see the treasures of some of the private greenhouses In the neighborhood of Boston, and the lively Interest being taken In the show by the different gardeners Indicates an exhibition of unusual merit.

In spite of the cold weather It Is confidently asserted that there will be few growers who will not have their exhibits ready In time for the show, which will be opened on March 21. One of the private greenhouses which will show nlants and flowers this year is that of Congressman Charles F. Sprague of Brookline, whose great estate has several fine conservatories remarkable at the present time for their profusion of bloom. The houses are symmetrically' arranged on a very convenient plan devised by the accomplished gardener. David A.

Weir, who has been at this place for six years, coming from Aberdeenshire. In the palm house, which is the central or.o of the group, are some remarkably fine foliage plants, tree ferns and palms of various species. Of the more notable foliage plants are the gorgeous Hellconla. with red and green markings of Its leaves; several species of Dracena. crotons in great variety and a Farleyensls or maidenhair fern which has a Dread of four and one-half feet cross the top, a truly magnificent specimen of this beautiful variety of fern.

In an adjoining greenhouse is a splendid mass of bloom, cinerarias, calceolaria and other plants filling ISO pots. A beautiful bank of color Is furnished by pots of Myosotls paJus-trls. as the forget-me-not is called In botanical language. Orange trees, covered with buds, hloseoms, green and ripe fruit, fill a corner of this house, and the south end Is covered with nasturtiums In bloom. Another house is devoted to carnations and violets, with acactaclaa In bloom set In for effect, and In the beds of carnations are single blossoms of the Marquis carnation which measured three and one half Inches In diameter.

Beyor.d this Is a rose house, where quantities of roses have been cut this season. A source of especial pride to Mr. Sprague and his gardener, however. Is the fine collection of orchids, which Includes the most notable of the standard varieties, grown In splendid profusion of bloom. The Cattleya bogotensls la one of the finest white varieties, and a single plant of this species bears twenty blossoms.

Some of the Calantha varieties, too, are remarkable for their flowering, and there are remarkably handsome specimens of dendrobes and cyprlpedlums. the latter variety being one that is coming more and more Into popular favor Although hundreds of thehe blossoms have been cut, the greenhouse Is still a wonderful sight A feature of the estate Is the collection of decorative plants, which Includes seventy bay trees such as are not shown on any other estate near Boston. Some of the bay trees are. sixteen feet In height, and form In summer feature of the Italian garden. These, with many box and holly plants, are now stored in winter quarters In a large double-doored building which protects them from the harmful effects of the frosts, and already they have begun to start new growth In their confined quarters.

The large beds of rhododendrons which make attractive banks of bloom In summer are now covered with boughs to protect them from the sun, rather than the cold, for the warming rays of early spring are damaging to these hardy plants. Many of the fine plants of this estate will be brought to the spring show this month. "Whitney 111 Not Solid In Sydney In a despatch from Halifax, N. yesterday, the statement was made that It had been announced in Sydney, C. that Henry M.

Whitney would shortly begin the erection of a residence there, and meantime occupy A. J. Moxham's residence. Mr. Whitney denied this morning that he was building or had any intention of building a house at Sydney.

He Is, however, fitting up a house there which he will use as a residence on his frequent visits to his mining properties, instead of going to the hotel.

Chronograph Club Anniversary At Hotel Savoy last night the fifth anniversary of the Chronograph Club was celebrated by a reception and dinner. The guests were Chairman Amo G. Tatehelder of the N. C. A.

board of control; Richard F. Kelsey, chalrmnn of the New England board of control; W. C. Wardwell, ex-chalr-man of the Board of Aldermen of Cambridge: John J. Donovan nad Frank N.

local handic-apior. Just previous to the opening of the after-dinner speeches Secretary C. E. Fay read a letter from Mr. Kelsey, New England member of the N.

C. A. board of control, stating that he had appointed members of the club as official timers for the district. The president of the club viewed Its work since formation. He then Introduced Chairman Batcheldcr, who congratulated the club on the accuracy of its work, and said that the coming cycling season he believed would be the best in the history of the sport.

He also expressed the hope that the Boston organization would be extended over the country. The board of control, he said, never questioned the certificate of the Chronograph Club on a record claim. This was the original timers' club In the country. Its purpose was to Improve the timing of bicycle races, both track and road, and that It lias accomplished considerable In that line Is beyond dispute. Its members have timed the majority of the most important races In the country, and have certified the accuracy of the time made In trials against world's record.

Information EHantrti HEARING ENDED ABRUPTLY Town of Hamilton Petitioned Railroad Commissioners While Having a Bill Before the Legislature Former Body Refused to Go On When Facta Came to Light Some interesting facta developed at a hearing before the Board of Railroad Commissioners this morning on a petition of a committee of the town of Hamilton, the selectmen and others of the town, that Willow street may be hereafter maintained aa a grade crossing across the Asbury Grove branch of the Boston Maine Railroad. It appeared that the town of Hamilton at present has a bill before the Legislature covering tbe very point before the Board of Railroad Commissioners: and that In that bill the Legislature la asked to remove restrictions Imposed by the board Itself In the past. Upon learning these facts, the Railroad Commissioners to continue the hearing, which they adjourned sir.e di The town was represented by F.

Evans, as counsel, who presented the facts in the case and outlined the matter from the point of view of the petitioners. In the course of the hearing a good deal of ancient history, pertinent to the case was brought up: It seems that in 1SUC the town of Hamilton appeared before the Railroad Commissioners to gain their consent for the laying out of Willow street across the Asbury Grove branch of the Boston Mime Railroad at grade. Public hearings were held and the facts were brought out that the County Commissioners of the County of Essex had adjudged that public convenience and necessity required the laying out of the street as mentioned. It appeirel then to the board that the laying out of the street would afford a shorter and mor-convenient route for a considerable amount of public travel and also enable the avoidance of two dangerous grade crossings of the main line of the railroad at Main and Aribury streets. On Sept.

22. 1KW, the board consented to the laying out and construction of Willow street with the condition tnat It should not be continued After the abolishment of the grade crossings at Main and Asbury streets, and In no event after the expiration of Lhe date of the order, unless with the further consent of the board. That time expires In September of this year. The petition heard this morning waa for the removal of the restrictions Imposed by the board by the order of lSlrt, so that Willow street may be maintained and continued aa a town wav In the future aa In the past. George H.

Glbney. a member of the Board of Selectmen of Hamilton, was called artcr Mr. Evans finished. He told of the vote of the board regarding the laying out of Willow street. The opening of this street has relieved the other two crossings at the main line, he sold.

Before Willow street was opened all the traffic now going over Willow street went over the ofher crossings. He toM the board facts regarding the traffic over the apur track of the railroad. Charles A. Hight. representing the Boston A Maine Railroad, brought out the fact that there is now a bill pending before the Legislature practically covering the matter before the commissioners, regarding the laying out of Union and WT-low streets as grade crossings.

This was a bit of news to the members of the board, nnd Commissioner Blrihop. who was a member of the board when the original order was gT.mted In ISttfi, seised upon it at once, bringing out the facts in the case as cited above. He then requestel Counsel Evans to read copy of the bill. It developed th.it a hearing on the legislative bill will he given at in.ru) A. M.

tomorrow by the Committee on Railroads at the State IIoue. Mr. Hight, for the railroad company, said that he thought this a very unusual proceeding. He thought that the petitioners -had no right to have two fires burning and make the Boston Maine Railroad Company attend to both of them. Commissioner Bishop stated to Mr.

Evans that he did not see why the bord should go on with fhe hearing. The commissioners, he stated, never give an opinion on any matter that Is pending in the Legislature. He gold further that as the petitioners are now before the Legislature asking that body to remove restrictions Imposed by the Board of Railroad Commissioners, the latter failed to see the necessity to pass upon the question. Mr. Bishop toM Mr.

Evans that If he got what he wanted from the Legislature he would not have to come before the commissioners. Counsel Evans was somewhat nonplussed and Commissioner Bishop declared that the board would continue the hearing without date. Mr. Evans gathered up Ms papers and the score or more of citizens of the town of Hamilton present to hear or testify took their departure.
