VOL. X. 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. item Od SOLDIERS’ ORPHANS’ SUFFERINGS.

Hutch Concentrating Tr<K>p» —A Battle Imminent— Colored Troops Against Kx-Vnion Soldiers. 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.

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 timate friend of the dead president} says: “C. G Wells was an honorable man. Voii must not think that the manner of his death indi cates the least stain upon his honor and com mercial integrity. He never did anything in his life that any man need be ashamed of, but he kdied himself simply because he was too sun Give to Jail because of financial dis aster brought, about by the ordinary misfor tune viewsitu les of commerce. No one impute.s a single dishonest act to the unfortunate man. As president of tbe Isliiid City savings lank, and with ihe knowledge of the metnb r- of the board of directors, he loaned his own firm the sum of # 5',000. He also befriended J. H.
