THE FENIANS IN FRANCE
THE LONDON EXPLOSIONS TO HAVE
BEEN FIRED BY A WOMAN,
Whose Heart Failed Her at the East Mo
ment —The Plot Concocted in Paris—A
Legacy to the Dynamiters — More
Threats —Rochefort Understands.
Paris. Jan. 28.—Tbe London explosions
are the one thing talked of in Paris. Hith
erto the French had taken th ) Insh dyna
miters no more seriously than their own an
archiste, but now that it has became clear |
that they are in earnest, they arouse propor
tionate interest. The extraordinary story
is told that it was intended a bomb should r
be thrown into the hons*» of commons by a
woman lately in Paris, who was to gel into
the ladies’ gallery to repeat the Alexander 11.
tr« r»‘dv, but at a critical moment her heart
failed her.
it. is said the regular colony of Irish-Ameri
can dynamiters, settled between Nantes and
Rouen, for some time past have been receiv
ing subsidies from the Fords through an agent
in Havre. It is believed that this agent I
sheltered persons who committed the Victoria
Station outrage and helped them to escape.
The Irish-Americans in Paris are |
for reputed Fenians have been watched, par
ticuiarly the “Shamrock” bar, a favorite |
ret dezvous of the extreme so-called nation
al fits.
Fresh outrages are to bo existed The, :
system of simultaneous explosions is to bo ;
kept up. But the dynamiters will proceed
ca itiously.
O'Donovan Roesa will drop in a for legacy
estimated at £20,000 at the end of a month,
left him by Bracken, a Philadelphia barkeep
er, supposed to have been concerned in the I
first Fenian movement. Willi this R a
Lops - t»> do wonderful things Bracken bud •
inherited altogether a million dollars from
his uncle, O’Kqpfe, who owned property in
New Guinea, He has promised two hundred
thousand to dyhandtets, and is about negoti
ating the purchase of Urge quantities of ex
plosives for use in England. When Hr tok
en's money comes to han I the British m *n
of-war and police barracks in Ireland will be
attacked. But private buildings will be !
avoided and the lives of innocent persons ■
spared. English officials, however, will prob- ■
ably suffer.
The explosions were planned in Paris at
the residence of a well known Irishman liv- |
ing in a street near the Quart: *r des Inva
lides. Delegates, three in numb' r, r>q>r jib
ing respectively the Irish dynn ' iters in
America, in Great Britain an 1 in iand, at
tended the meeting. Three men were deputed
to effect the explosions in the house of com
mons and the tower.
It is an indisputed fact that the notorious
John Morri sey, of county I rlow, who whs
a head centre in the revolutionary movement ■
of 1807 and the preceding years, has visited !
Faris, and he is believed to have taken part .
in the explosions. The dynamite used on this
occasion was manufactured in France and •
forwarded to England <veral m nthw ago in 1
separate cakes to localities designated; where i
the pieces wore sei,-ntideally amalgamated. ,
Mom serious work is contemplated shortly.
M Rochefort was very outspoken on the
subject, and does not won ter at the occur- •
rence of these outrages. “Far from believing |
that they are likely to stop,” said M Roche
fort, “I think they will increase and multi
ply For my own part Ido not advocate
such extreme measures as the dynamiters do,
but I can understand them.”
Roesa’s Proposition.
New York, Jan. 28.—“Russa is out,” said
Pat Joyce to half a dozen reporters who en
tered the office of the chief nf the dynamiters. >
“He is lea king after the publication of his
paper. He will get out 150,000 copies this
week Here,” flourishing a tetter, “is an offer
of $15,000 from a prominent merchant of this I
city to help us in our work.”
“What is his name?”
“The devil a bit will I tell. When the
English are ready to acknowledge the inde
pendence of Ireland, we will cease the use of
dynamite in England. Ix*t Gladstone, as a
representative of his government, meet Roesa,
representing the dynamiters, on some neutral ;
ground, say Cuba, and there will be no need j
of further warfare. The prime minister and
Hossa would soon come to an understanding
by which England would never more be
frightened with dynamite and Ireland would
bo free.”
R- n a came in later and said he didn’t know
Bn'. thing about Cunningham, the man who
was arrested for complicity in the L indon
e.-plosiuns. In his paper Rossa submits a plan
for firing London. It is to locate fifty men
or women in lodging houses circling throe or
four squares, and to have them al! fire the
lodginghouses at the same time. The rush
of engines would blockade the streets and it
might be a good deal of a fire.
A Convention of Dynamiters.
Londox, Jan. 28.—1 tis announced that a
convention of dynamiters will be held in
Faris in February, under the presidency of
Pdsrr. jr., acting in behalf. of bis father
Delegates from Ireland, England, America,
Havre, Boulogne and Antwerp will a|t« nd to
prepare a plan for future action. Ji is thought
that notifications in regard to outrages will
be prepared and adopted There is a grow
ing feeling among dynamiters against further
attempts on public buildings. Several non
tractors for the private sale of torpedoes will
be present at the moating, consequently it
seems likely that torpedoes are to be pur
chased, and that the British navy will be the
next object of the conspirators’ attack.
The Stan ’ard says: “We ask no fav >r of
the United States Government. We only ask
our brothers across the .Atlantic to do what
they feel to be right We wish for no m as
ure incompatible with social freedom.” The
Standard also appeals to the British people
not to wreck vengeance upon Irishmen for
the acts of fanatics.
It May be Dynamite.
Montreal, Jan. 28 —A suspicious looking
box wax found in the lobby of the fiostoffice
here about 7 o’clock Monday evening It
was at once removed to the police station,
where it now lies. The box is made of tin,
weighs three pounds and is suppose I to con
tain dynamite. There is considerable ex
citement over the find, and experts have been
sent for to examine the contents.
Congressman I>« ister'a Soft Heart.
Washington, Jal 28. —Congr ..man
Deuster, of Milwauk e, Win., was rail d U|>on
at the house of representatives Monday morn
ing by a lady who said she was a resident of
Milwaukee and temporarily out of money.
She mentioned the names of several of Mr.
Deuster’s friends who were also friends of
hers, she said. She asked for the loan of
$l5O to enable her to get home. Mr. Deuster
asked her to telegraph to one of his friends in
Milwaukee to send him a dispatch saying she
was all right and be would let her have the
■money. She went away and in an hour re
turned with what purported to be a dispatch
from the Milwaukee friend of Deuster’s. He
let her have the money but found later that
the message was bogus. He has not dis
covered the woman and there is no prospect
that he will.

CAtnWRLL, Kan., Jan. 2S.—A man from
Couch’s camp says it is located aliout half
way between the Stillwater and the Cim
inaron rivers Couch’s men are continually
throwing up breastworks, and have dug pits
so that hey can move about without being
seen, -t is asserted here that nothing short
of bloodshed will eject them. A great many
1 cattle men who are connected with
syndicates reside or arw wintering hero, They
: of course oppose the settlers. They say this
winter has been the most severe on cattle of
any for many previous years. On one ranch
out of l head 2,U00 have died In other
largo herds the proportion of those dying is
iev 111 greater. Lieut Palmer arrived from
; Fort Riley Monday evening and relieved
Liout. Jackson, who was left hero by Cpl.
Hatch as assistant quartermaster. Chief
Quartermaster Gillis has arrived from Leav
enworth.
Arkansas City, Kan., Jan. 23.—The two
armed camps of Gen. Hatch and (’apt.
Couch, the boomer leader, lie within about
nine mib's of one another, with the possibility
of a colhsi mat any hour. It is learned (hat
fifteen companies of. infantry have reached
Gen. Hatch from Fort Reno and that he had
move I bis < amp nearer that of the boomers.
The latter have supplies to last at least thirty
days, and so cannot bp starved out in less
than that time. They will resist capture at
any; cost. A large amount of furs, oierohoos,
sibley st -ves and hats arriveti from RtF Louis
by express at Caldwell Monday morning for
the soldiers. More troops are on their way
from Forts Leavenworth and Riley.
Lawrence, Kns, Jan 28.—(ten. Hatch
has n-> b<>J I.y job before him The GOO men
now encamp-1 iu the coveted territory have
made up timir minds to stick, and. they are
not lik’dy to malie any sudden change. They
. have been " -mderfully active during the last
| few days in preparing to receive Gen. Hatch.*
j They are determined and belligerent and
| show a l the symptoms of fight.
Cnpr. (Auii, who has succeeded to Capt.
Fayn“. is a well-to-do and successful farmer
<-f Butler county, Kus. He has been under
tire and has seen service, as have a majority
of the boomers. He is a quiet, determined
man, teinnerate in his habits, free from all
bluster, but solid, independent and fearless m
his moveim nts. lie is an entirely different
character from Payne, and there is where the
danger comes in.
Tin* boo 1 Mi’s know all about the move
ments of the troops. They have so<>utß out
constantly, and the entire border sympathi
zes with them. They know there are niu-A
t-i’b'‘.iin’iin-’sof troops now held In read
ini-ss at different pu.>ta to be forwarded to the
seat of war.
The troops are stationed as follows: Four
companies of infantry at Fort Leavenworth;
one at Fort Gibson, Indian territory; four at
Fort Lyon, Coloardo; three at Fort Union,
New xiqo; one at Fort Reno, Indian terri
tory; thru- at Fort Wingate, New Mexico,
and three troops of cavalry at Fort Riley,
With the xc-ption of the troojw in New
M- xi •(. the balance can be concentrated near
the boomurs’ eamp in forty-eight hours.
The oolomsts are fully posted and ad fully
prepared as possible. They have thrown up
intrenchincnts, dug rifle pits and built a sort
of fetor block house, and are preparoi un
doubtedly to give General Hatch a warm re
ception. It has been tbe genera) impression
that, they would not fight, as they have been
driven out so often. There has, however,
been no legal adjudication of the case until a
few months ano, when a trial was forced and
Judge Foster decided that the going upon the
lands was not a criminal act. This has greatly
emboldened the boomers, and they now think
that the action of the troops in oppressive and
tyrannical, and resistance is legal and
as praiseworthy as the counio of the revolu
tionary fathers in resisting the British at
Boston.
The count! y is well timbered along the
streams, and t he lands are rich in possibilities
for agriculture and cattle raising It is a
goodly land. The boomers are kept advised
‘ of the movements of the troops, but a major-
I ity of the raiders do not really think the sec-
I retary of wtfr will allow General Hatch to
turn his colored troops loose upon ex white
soldiers of the union army.

HIS FATAL DOSE.
How an Honorable Man Shuffled Off Thil
Mortal Coil.
Galveston, Tex., Jan. 2S —lt had hoen
known to a few friends for R<»veral months
that the firm of Wolstun, Wells & Vider,
Cotton factors, were heavy borrowers, but
the true condition of affairs was b’jspectod by
none. Mr. Wells went to his office Sunday
morning and remained at hi; desk about two
hours. The exvt time at which he swal
lowed the fat il dose of morphine is not
known. Al>out 1 o’clock Sunday afternoon
Mrs Wills notic’d that her hu band was
passing into a comatose condition and hastily
summoned physicians. Abmit 11 o'clock that
night the doctors succeeded in resuscitating
him sufficiently to enable him to conv<»rs3.
He then told them that he had taken twenty
grains of morphine, ami again passed into a
heavy sleep from which he never awak m d.
Mr. whs a member o£ the firm
of Wolstou, Weils Vider, and waa
president of the cotton exchange. He was
the vory embodiment of Junior and to this
fact is attributed his self-dustru tion. An in

G Wells was an honorable man. Voii must
not think that the manner of his death indi

IN Father O’Brien was once in charge
of Brooklyn hospital at Philadt Iph’rt., anl
there did good work in correcting abuses.
On account of the constant turmoil in this

his removal to Allentown. Rov. Father
Beresford, the newly appointed pastor, hi -
rivudym Saturday, Ho found FiUher O’Brien
still in ch and determined not to surren

the pulpit: “1 know the qib,loll that is on
your lips. It is not a pleasa-m one, though I
will explain it. You heard rumors and read

Allentown. 1 was nppmntod but I declined
to take it. 1 had tiie ciibico of four churches
in the dioc- se, but I declined to take any one

He W alked Into Their Arms.
Cincinnati, Jan. 2;.—While JletecHves
White and Kushmau were walking down
Central avenue, they ran plump into James
Chumley, who jumped his bond here some
time siuce, while awaiting trial on an indict

with Charles l>amb, three years ago, which
culminated in Chumley shooting Lamb dead.
He was indicted for murder in the second de

ANA INSANE ASYLUM.
None of the Inmates Injured-—Strange Case
of Coma and a Funeral Postponed—
Gen. Grant’ll War Relies Safe —Tom
Ochiltree in Executive Session.
Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 28 —Shortly
after 2 o’clock in the morning fire broke out
in the engine room of the female department
of the insane hospital, west, of this city, aud
bufure the flames could be stayed they had
destroyed tbe chapel, k itchen, bakery, engine
room, laundry, dining room, employes’ s.eep
ing apartments, and officers’ dining-room.
These were contained In two brick buildings,
in the rear of the main building, and
nothing remains of them but the wails.
The loss to the state will be
about s>s,o(X)* The state insures none of this
properly. The fight against the fire was
made under groat disadvantage, the water
supply being scant. Supt. Fletcher aud all
the attendants behaved with remarkable
coolness and efficiency. They aroused and
dress** i the patients iu tin exposed .wards of
the building preparatory ! > removing them
to a safe pl are, should th* flames reach the
main structure.
Some of the wards in the center of the
buildijjg, where the flames would have
refcehe I first, were vacated and the patients
remove I, but in the other wards the patients
r -nifiine 1 undisturbed. None of the 1,700
patients, in (he institution were injured,
nn I there was no violent outbreak among
them. The fire will seriously embarrass the
management in the working of the institu
tion until the buildings shall be replaced.
Strange Case of Coma.
Louisville, K., Jan. .28.—The startling
disrovery was made Monday morning that
the body of Mrs. Carrie C. Ringold, who
was awaiting burial, bad turned in the coffin;
thV cbeel.s and lips had color, but the heart
was still. As Mrs. Ringold had been in a
trix ico twice before, and on both occasions
came near being buried alive, there was con
s durable excitement in the neighborhood,
her. friend saying she is not. dead. The body
will be k’-y.t a few days, and if no signs of
life is foiin I will be interred in (lave Hill.
Ibo eircuiiislaives of the crdaleptic fit, or
whatever it may prove to be, are somewhat
s i-KUgb. Last Saturday Dr. Belitel was
called to a! tend and found Ivr suffering in
tensely wit ii what he t hought heart dis ale.
Sb.« grew W"i se till night, when she sereaihed
and f !1 back on her piliow, her eyes fixed ns
mi'- och'l. The doctor on examination pro
nounced ber so. As she had be; n hick several
■ hl*. her fri'-n ls thou pit. she was dead, and
preparations for burial were ma le. The
body was placed in a coffin, and a largo num
ber of fricn Is were calling to take their last
view of the dead when the above discovery
was ma le.
Mrs ILngold’s maiden name was Young.
When thirteen years old she married a man
named Thatcher, shortly after going into a
trance. For some months physicians were
umible to say whether she was asleep or
dead. Wli n finally restored to health she
married a second husband, named Snyder.
She att'-rward returned to Thatcher for sev
eral month., and then deserted him. Three
year; later she married a man named
(Ilearen, shortly after this again going into a
trance for seven weeks. The grave was dug
ami the minister about to proceed with the
sei vice when it was discovered that she was
not dead. Her fourth marriage was with
Ringold. The case is decidedly into resting,
and will be closely watched by physicians
and others.
