London March 17.—John Red- mond, leader of the Irish party in the House of Commons, made a speech on Home Rule at Bradford last night, in which he referred to the impoverishment of Ireland.

In the year 1900, lie said, 45,000 persons had left Ire. land. Of this number 4,0000 went to America, and they took with them the deadly hatred of England, which, if Ireland did not obtain justice, would some day be felt by the. English Government.
