Ilia bslieved that one of the conspirators entered the crypt, passiog s policeman st the entrance, and deposited an infernal machine at the bottom of the steps. The policeman had his suspicions aroused and removed the parcel, which exploded, making a hole in llie floor three feet in dismet r, twisting the iron railings and smashing the iron and lead work of all the vioiiws in the hall. The policeman's hair was singed and hia face burned. Bis clothing was torn from his body hr tbs force of tiie explosion Be is still elite, bat no hope Is entertained of his recovery. The man and woman who drove from the Parliament Buildings immediately before the explosion and who were arrested on suspicion have been liberated, the evidence against them being insufficient to hold them.

A SKETCH OF THE TOWER As Palace end Prison — Distinguished Persons Wno Hare Suffered With in Its Walla. The Tower of London, as tlready pointed out, ta the name given toe fortress In the heart Of the Eighth metropolis, covering twelve seres and resting upon the Thames. It la sur rounded upon three sides by s deep moat and walls mounted with cannon. These walla are broken at Intervals bytowera, and other'de* tached buildings called towers aud chapelt stand within the enclosure. OUTER WAEO.

Tho approach to the Tower used be defended by outworks, but these long since been removed. The Isltsr enters the fortress by the Middle Tower, a strong portal Hanked with The Irish newspapers denounce the out rage In vigorous term!. AXOTHKR ARREST. The police hare arretted another man on suspicion of complicity In Saturday's crimes. He will be examined this after noon at the Bow street courL James Gil bert Cunningham, who was arrested yes terday on suspicion of having had some thing to do with the Tower outrage, was examined to-day at Bow street station. The charge of having canted the explo sion at the Tower was preferred against him. He declared that he was an English man. Evidence was adduced showing that the man gave contradictory replies at the time of his arrest. A rumor was current last evening and this morning that Cunningham, who was arrested at the Tower, would have a hear ing to day at the Thames Police Court, in Arbor street. The report caused the court and streets in the vicinity to be crowded with excited citizens, and extra police had to be placed on duty to keep order. The feeling against Cunningham Is very hitler, and if he bad fallen into their hands there is no doubt he would have been lynched, Hhortly alter noon It was learned that de tectives had arrested another man, and he and Cunningham would us arraigned at the Bow Street Police Court. The people in the vicinity of the Thames Police Court then left in the direction of Bow street, A WABXIitO LITTER. The letter received by the police officials yesterday is now believed to be a very iin portent document. In addition to other valuable information it states that 8t< Pant’s Cathedral and the office of the Daily Telegraph are among the buildings which the dynamiters threaten to blow np. Westminster Hall and the Tower are closed to every one except officials engaged in inspecting the structures. Many per sons carrying parcels on the streets to-day have t een stopped by the police and the parcels examined before they were per mitted to pass on. DISCUSSION AT A LAND LEAGUE MEETING. Dublin, January 20 —At a meeting of the local branch of the National League held st Clonmel today, Town Councilman Phelan took the floor and spoke in justifi cation of Saturday’s outrages st London. Approaching a climax, he cried out: “So 1 ng as England withholds Ireland’s just riguts, these explosions by dynamite will continue.” Tols declaration raised such a furions storm of dissent that Phelan was sil.nced and retired to hia seat.

He was th ere charged on suspicion withconroliclty in the explosion at the Tower ol London. He smilingly surveyed the court and crowd which had congregated within to get a glimpse of tbe alleged dynamiter. His exsminstiun tended to convince the police that in ar resting Cunningham they bad secured a prisoner who had atieaaigmtty knowledge of Saturday's crimes. -It was proven that Cunningham was a native of Cork; that he had lived at leastfive years in the United States; that he arrived in England during last autumn and came directly from New York.

Tbe grand suito of Queen'i meats was a striking feature. It was tbe scene of tho wedding festivities that fol lowed the marriage of Henry III aud Eleanor Of Provence.

In this latter tower Edward III used to bold court, and hero King John of Kraucc, while a prisoner, entertained Edward and hit coart. The Tower of Londou has known gorgeous as well as gloomy scenes. In 1X77 Hit-hard II issued from its gates clad in white to receive bis crown which, twenty years later, he was to resign to the usurper and court death in a dungeon. During his reign, however, the chronicles tell of brilliant assemblages of fair ladles and brave men, richly capraisoned steeds and glittering knights within (oe Tower walls. It was in the Tower also that in 1501 Henry VII held a magnificent tournament Prince Arthur’s marriage day.
