In the course of his address he paid that their organisation had flourished despite the power of the unholy secret conspiracy ■with £55,000 of public funds at their backs. Their warnings io the country against tbo Birrell Bill were strangled by the paid baton-men of the Molly Maguire Convention, and later on by the" open—h© said it deliberately—to the'open and subsidised attempt* to murder Mr Healy and himself at Crossmclina and at Dui'idalk.
