A classical theorem due to Lüroth, Clebsch and Hurwitz states that the Hurwitz space \({\mathcal H}_{d,n}(\mathbb{P}^1)\), which parametrizes equivalence classes of irreducible coverings of \(\mathbb{P}^2\) of degree \(d\) simply ramified in \(n\) points, is irreducible. In the present paper the author generalizes this result and proves the irreducibility of the Hurwitz spaces, which parametrize equivalence classes of Galois coverings of \(\mathbb{P}^1\), where the Galois group is an arbitrary Weyl group, and which have simple branching, the sense that every local monodromy is a reflection. As a corollary of this result, the author gives a topological classification of the coverings he has considered.
