Arrest Practically Invited by the Conduct of the Principal Figures—Evidence Against the Rotterdam~ Suspects and Bell. LONDON, Sept. 16. —Great interest is Ihown on all sides in the developments of the dynamite conspiracy, which, taking away from it all natural police and other exaggerations, seems to have been a very clumsily planned job, carried out with carelessness and bravado. Under the cir- cumstances it is dlflicult _to see how do; tectives of the most ordinary ability could have failed to have their attention drawn to "the plot. public bars of the chief conspirator, P. J. Tynan, alleged to be the notorious “No. 1, ” of the Phoenix park murders, a dis- tinction which some persons say does not belong to him, and the carelessness in . carrying cipher keys to incriminating cor- respondence, with dynamite bombs and- materials for constructing them, and the sending of telltale messages over the Brit- ish government telegraph lines show that as plotters the conspirators were bur- lesquers. Add to this the masquerading of Ty- nan as a queen' s messenger “bearing an autograph letter’ from Queen Victoria to the czar at Copenhagenfl his traveling with this letter (the queen being at Bal- moral) from the south of France, stopping some time in Paris and sojourning for a longer period at Bonlogne-‘sur-Mer, and it will be seen that the British police deserve little credit fer arresting the four men connected with the plot, especially if, as is claimed, the departure of the men arrested was signaled to Scotland Yard from New York. On the contrary, it looks as if, had the British police been wary enough to get Tynan and his other associates to land on British soil with their bombs, their con- viotion would have been ‘an easy task, while extradition proceedings would have been needless. Tynan, however, wanted to do his dynamite act on French soil, and one of his last actions while at liberty was totelegraph Bell at Glasgow to come back. Alleged Facts Against Tynan. A representative of the press ,was told today that not one of the men captured by the police on the charge of taking part in the conspiracy has applied to the United States embassy for protection, although they are expected to take this step in the event of any of them being naturalized American citizens. It is known that some time after the Phoenix park murders ex- tradition papers were actually taken out after Tynan’ s flight, it having been de- termined to make an attempt to bring him to trial. But the matter was dropped ' as a result of spoolal inquiries at the time. The police claimed incidentally to have ascertained that Tynan personally pur- chased at a surgical instrument maker’s store in the Strand the knives with Which Lord Eraderick Cavendish, chief secretary for Ireland, and Thomas Henry Burke, the permanent undersecretary, were stab- bed to death in Phoenix 'park, Dublin, on May 6, 1882, and for which five men, ' Brady, Curley, Fagan, Cafirey and Kelly, were executed. Later James Carey, whose evidence brought about their conviction, was shot and killed in South Africa by an Irish avenger. A dispatch received from Rotterdam to- day says that John F. Kearney, alias J. Wallace, and Halnes, the two men arrested there in possession of a number of infernal machlnes and a quantity of incriminat- ing correspondence, refuse to answar the questions put to them by the authorities. Among the articles found in their pockets were a bill from a chemist at Antwarp (where, in the suburb of Berchem, a com- plete laboratory for the manufacture of bombs was discovered) for large quantities of chemicals and a letter dated at, Bou- logne-sur-Mcr, Saturday, Sept. 12, ad- dressed to “J. Wallace,” in which occur the \following passages: “If you dare not go to Scotland, come to Boulogne, where we can talk the mat- ter over. Cowardice cannot be tolerated among our brothers.” . Rumor of Betrayal. The report that one of the recently re- leased Irish political prisoners betrayed the conspiracy to the British authorities as the price of his freedom, and that other prisoners were released in order that the informer’s identity should not be disclosed, is still current; but,” under the circum- stances, it seems that the police could have got along very well without the alleged in- former's services. , Incidentally ,the Exchange Telegraph company this afternoon announces that Sir Mathew White Ridley, the secretary of state for home afiairs, has ordered the re- lease of Joseph Boll, one of the Carlisle dynamiters, from Portland prison. Dis- patches from Glasgow today say that the police of that city have obtained a quan- tity of additional evidence against Edward Bell, the man taken into custody there on the charge of being concerned in the dyna- miteplot. Irish and other detectives in plain clothing are busily at work in all quarters, but no further arrests have been made, although an American “suspect“ is being shadowed. It is believed that the crown officials of I Scotland have decided to try Kearney in connection with the blowing up of the Tradeston gasmneter in 1883. Edward Bell today was quieter and does not refer to the charges made against him, especially as he has been cautioned that any statements he may make will be used against him at his approaching examina- tion before a magistrate and at his trial later, supposing that he is committed. Throughout yesterday and today the uniformed'police have been engaged in a systematic search of the houses in the Irish quarter of Glasgow, where, it is known, a number of sympathizers with the dynamite movement reside and where dynamite was hidden at the time of the Tradeston outrage. The object of this search is tomake cer- tain that Bell has no confederates in the Irish qumter, as asserted by’tho police. Tynan, according to the latest advices from Boulogne, is now much calmer and has been taking steps looking to his de- fense when brought up on extradition pro« cecdings at that place. The Mother of Extradition. Friends of the prisoners here assert that . ”everything possible is being done by the police to develop the Russian features of the conspiracy in order that the influence of the czar may he brought to tear upon the French gmernmcnt w1th tho view-of obtaining .‘1‘ . 1.2111' 5 e1. traaziitzou. in any case. it 1: bellows :-:.a. ill-3 ‘1...1Isb author- iIics will have Ll. ms, task before them in The convivial boasting in- ”conneoting the prisoner with the Phoenix park murders and his connection with the present plot will not be found sufficient- to result in capital punishment even if his extradition is granted, which is by no means certain. It is believed that. Chief ‘ Inspector Mel- ville ofScotland Yard has left London for the continent in order to conduct further investigations into the dynamite con- spiracy. “One who kpows Tynan intimately” writes to ThePall Mall Gazette this after- noon saying it is possible that Tynan came to Europe with the special object- of blow- ing up Marlborough House or destroying members of the royal family. The writer does not believe that Tynan crossed the ocean with the idea of promiscuous bomb, throwing, adding that Tvnan must have been driven to action by the Clan-na-Gael and must have been in desperate straits to induce him toleavethe United States, for he always felt that if he was caught in England he would be hanged. , In conclusion The Pall Mall Gazette’s correspondent says that Tynan once dl- vulged a plan to buy or lease a building opposite Marlborough House, dig a tunnel from it to the center of‘ Marlborough House and blow the ‘latter up when occu- pied by the Prince of Wales. I The Bercham Suspects. ' A dispatch to'The Pall Mall Gazette from Brussels says that cards found in the house of the conspirators at Berchem, near Antwerp, are inscribed: “John F. Kearney, The Irish National- ist, Bowery, New York. ” The cards also set forth that Mr. Kear- ney is a notary public. The Globe this afternoon says that among the letters found by the police of Glasgow upon Edward Bell are two from Kearney introducing Bell to a couple of Irish residents of Glasgow, stating that he (Bell) was about to establish a branch of his New York business in Glasgow and expressing the hope that they (the persons addressed) will lend him every assistance. Bell, later today, made a brief state- ment, saying he was born in' the Harlem districtof New York city, claiming he is a stockbroker, that he left New York on Aug. 19, landed at Antwerp and went from there to Berlin, London and Glas- gow. intending to sail today for New York from Liverpool. Bell also admitted that he is a member of a political club, but he stoutly denied that he has been associated with conspira- tors. The latest explanation regarding the documents in his possession is that he found them in a London music hall. . The St. James Gazette this afternoon says: . “The general feeling in Irish quarters is that the release of the dynamiters was a move ,upon the part of the government to insure the conviction of the recently cap- tured plotters, and the dynamiters belieyed that they'were freed in order to give evi- dence of Tynau’s connection with the In- vincibles and the Phoenix park murders. ” Tynan’s Brother Skeptical. SAN Fnsxorsco, Sept. 16.——Many Irish- men in Sim Francisco were astounded at the news of P. J. Tynan’s arrest. The pris- oner has many friends in this city who know him intimately, and they were especially astonished at his arrest. His brether, who is an old San Francis- can, is skeptical regarding the identity of the prisoner. “It may be like a drowning man catch- ing at strawe.” he said, “but then I can-' not believe that my brother is in France. There have been so many palpable lies in the dispatches about him that I .am rea- sonably led to believe there is some great mistake somewhere. Why, it is only two months now since I got a letter from him. He was in New York then and had no in- tention of going to France. On the con- trary, he frequently told me it was his in- tention to live out his days in this coun- try. _ “The English ofiicials have‘been aching to lay hands on my brother for many years. You may remember that in 1882 they request his surrender at the hands of the Washington authorities, but as they had no proof against the subject of their persecution the United States very proper- ly declined to give him up. “The story of his arrest sounds peculiar to me. My brother is a strictly temperate man, yet the dispatches state that he talked too much in a barroom. I’llwarrant that is a lie. He never frequents bar- rooms. In fact, he has not tasted a drop for many years. No, sir, I cannot credit the story.” THE TROUBLE IN TURKEY. . Embaesadors Cancer-ting Measures For Future Protection. / Coxs'rsx'rrxorLE. Sept. 16.—The em- bassadors of the powers held a meeting today to plan measures to be taken for the protection of the different embassies and the foreign population generally in the event of a renewal of the disturbances here. The exact steps determined upon were not divulged, but they are under- stood to include the united action of the guardshlps of all the powers, each ship being assigned a certain position and a certain number of men to he landed at a given signal to protect certain points. The defenses of the embassies will also, accord- ing to report, be considerably strengthened by an increase in the number of men now guarding them and by other precautions which will tend to make them capable of resisting attack for a considerable time. It is also reported that under certain circumstances a number of additional warships of the powers will re-enforoe the guardships now doing duty in these wa- ~ tors. Gladstone‘s Voice For Armenia. LIVERPOOL, Sept. 16.—Mr. Gladstone has written a letter to the Liverpool Re- form club urging the organization'of a mass meeting in behalf of the Armenians and stating that, if desired, it might , be ' possible for him to take part'in the pro- ceedings. . The Corbett-Fitzsimmons Match. LONDON, Sept. 16.—A meeting of the directors of the National Sporting club will be called early next week in order to consider the suggestion made to the club of offering a purse fora fight between Corbett and Fitzsimrnons. It is believed that the club, on the whole, is favorable to the idea. Serious Runaway Accident. SARATOGA,Seplj,-116.—Mrs. Hill, aged 70, mother of Mrs. B.

Aficsuruav cs WANcsaINc. ’l‘he Adventurous Career of a Missouri Centenarian. . - John Jackson Harris, probably the oldest man in the Osage Valley, who came not long ago from the northern part of the State, now lives with rela- tives ten miles west of Linn Creek. Mr Harris was born in Grayson county, Ky., Marph 4, 1795, and is pro- bably the oldest man in the State, and his career has few parallels for wander ing and romance. Harris removed to Indiana in 1830. and to Illinois in 1831. served under Col. Payne in the Black. Hawk war, and in 1833 went to Iowa. From there he went to Missouri, whence his inherited taste for a. roving life urged him onward to Kansas. When quite an old man he chose a little girl named Elizabeth Cox, the daughter of a pioneer like himself, for his future wife, and was laughed at for what he regarded as an idle fancy. True to his child ideal, however. he .ncver lost sight of her, and his devotion was rewarded when the girl reached the age of 16 years by the gift of her hand in marriage. At one time they had a com- fortable pioneer home in one of the most fertile spots in Kansas, where he expected to spend the remainder of. his days. During one of the Indian uprisings, however, he was driven to flight. fight. ing his way across the prairie with his lamily to a place of safety. The refu- gees, banded together for mutual pro- tection, were powerless to save their property, and everything was stolen or destroyed by the redskins. Thus shorn of the fruits of his indus- try, he spent the next'few years in the mountains as trapper, guide, and scout, having many adventures and skirmish- es with the Indians. who had not gained in his good graces by the destruction of his home. His companion in many of his jour- neys and adventures was a cousin whose family had been slaughtered by the ln- dians and the remainder of whose life was a mission of vengeance. “I hev seed that feller,” said the old man. in a tone betokening mild surprise, “leave a. bear to get a lnjun; I hev, , shore.’ He extended his wanderings east and west over a large portion of North America, rejoining his family whenever and wherever he could, traveling with Ithem into Arkansas, Texas and many other States and Territories, making one tour of the Atlantic States and an- other to the great lakes, always im- pelled by the spirit of unrest and adven- cure to seek newer and broader fields. a" A century of wandering has left him on Missouri soil, not for the first 110! second, but probably for the last time. He is by no means resigned to an inac- tive life. however, even yet, and seems to cling to the hope of again seeing the far West—St. Louis Globe-Democrat- TOIEXPL‘OB‘E LABRADOR. ”353 An Expedition of Students and Scientists oGo There in June. An expedition bound for the interior of Labrador will leave Philadelphia in June to study the Eskimo and collect specimens of the flora and fauna of that region. G. A. Perkins of the class of '95, University of Pennsylvania, will be the commander, and the remainder of the party will consist of four special students of zoology, geology, botany,» and archaeology, and a number of col- lege students and others. Prof. Frank Russell, Curator of the University of Iowa, will go with the expedition as srchwologist. The trip from St. Johns, Newfound- land, to Labrador will be made in the ship Kite. At .St. John’s the Phila- delphia party will be joined by ten scientific men sent out to explore the coast of Elsmeres Land and also to dis- cover traces of the ancestors of the Greenlanders, who, it is thought, came from that place.

William H. Porter, otherwise “Billy” P01 ter, a young millionaire who is in business' 1n this city and lives' 111 Brook- lyn, has developed a fad that promises to make him famous. Every night, rain or shine, snow or hail, freeze or thaw, Mr. Porter turns out one. bicycle to every fire that is rung in in the city across the Bridge. In order that he may be promptly on the scene he has hada fire alarm rigged up in his bed- room. It 1s Mr. Porter’s boast that he always beats the engine, except in the cases where he has a long distance to travel, when the firemen of the local district naturally get to the conflagration ahead of'him. But on even terms he says he can beat the engine almost without an effort. This millionaire with a queer hobby has spent a small fortune in getting his lire paraphernalia in perfect shape. In his bedroom is ‘a gong that connects with Fire Headquarters. On this every alarm is sounded, There ‘ is an auto- matic connection by means of which the ”gas in M17. Porter’s bedroom is turned on and lighted at the first strike of the gong. Simultaneously a gong is sounded in the stable behind the house where the bicycles are stored. Lamps are al ways kept lighted 1n the stable, and the coachman, who sleeps just. above the place where the gong is fitached, turns out instantly to get everything in readi- ness for his master. Mr. Porter meanwhile has slipped into a pair of trousers and a sweater, and with a celerity that would do credit to the most expert fireman, he' ls up and away. The lower part of the house is flooded with light by the same arrange- ment that ignites the gas in his bed- room. The stairways, the halls, the dining4room_ and the kitchen, through which his path lies toward the stable, are all brilliantly lighted up, so that he can run without any danger of bumping into tables and chairs and being bowled over. Usually in five seconds after the first alarm has sounded Mr. Porter is in the saddle and scorching toward the fire. . ‘ Arrived at the fire, the bicvclist turns fireman, helpin . to hold down a hose o1 steer a nozzle. The firemen all know him. and they say, he is a willing and brave fire fighter. Mr. Porter inherited from his father a. large manufacturing business, which he conducts. He is twenty-six years old.-- New York Journal. Li PERKINS AND BILL NYE. flow These Humorists Joked Each Other in Laramie. In a recent article Mellville D. Landor published the following story of the late Bill Nye and himself: On the occasion of my visit to Lara- mie Mr. Nye introduced me to my Lara- mie audience. His introduction was like this: “Ladies and gentlemen. I am glad that it has devolved upon me tonight to announce that we are to have an in- teresting lecture on lying by one of the most distinguished—[There was a pause, for Mr. Nye’s inflection indi- cated that he had finished, and the au- dience yelled with delight, so that it was some time before the sentence was concluded] lecturers from the East.” Mr. Nye continued: “We have _our ordinary country liars in Laramie, but Mr. Perkins comes from the metropolis. Our every-day liars have a fine record. We are proud of them. But the un- cultured liars of the" prairie cannot be expected to cope with the gifted and more polished prevaricators from the cultured East. Ladies and gentlemen, permit me to introduce to you Eliar Perkins.” “Ladies and gentlemen,” I said in reply, “I feel justly flattered by your Laramie humorist’s tribute to my ver- acity, but truly I am not as great a liar as Mr. N ye falter. The audience saw my dilemma and applauded, and finally I couldn’t finish the sentence for some moments, but continuing I said: “I am not as big a liar as Mr. Nye—would haVe you think. ” She Was Qualified. A little girl was in the witness box and, as usual, before she was allowed to be sworn, she was examined by the presiding J udge—‘Mr. Justice Manle— as to her understanding the nature of an oath and in her belief in a future state. “Do you know what an oath is. my child?” asked the Judge. - “Yes, sir; I am obliged to tell the truth.” “And if you always tell the truth, where will you go when you die?” “Up to heaven, sir,” “And what will become of you if you tell lies?” “I shall go to the naughty place, sir.” “Are you quite sure of that?” , ‘ Yes, sir, quite sure.’ “Let her be sworn,” said Maule; “it is quite clear she knows a great deal more than I do.
