DISCOVNRY OF FENIAN STORES AND COMBER-
SIELES AT LTTERPOOL.,—For some time past the attention
of the Liverpool pollee has been directed to a suspicious
bind of hoist, No. 84, Salishury.street, and a watch
having been placed upon it, information was obtained by
degrees that it had been used as a place of assembly fur
a number of Fenian agitators, the leader of whom was the
bead centre arrested about a month ago in Birkenhead.
It was ascertained that immediately after this man's
arrest the remainder of the conspirators got away to
America. A communication received within the last few
slays front Dublin induced the police authorities in Liver-
pool to search the house. They did so, and as it is stated
they discovered in the cellar, or some other secret part of
the pretnia2s, a quantity of liquid in bottles, a considerable
amonnt of revolver cartridge, and three muskets. One of
the bottles of liquid was cloned, and a portion of it beiqg
accidentally spilled upon the floor ignited. The officers
poured • small quantity down the sewer, and this also
ignited. The rem tining bottles, the cartridge, and the
muskets were removed to the police-station in Dale-
street. An officer wan then sent with one of the bottles in
- search of an analytical chemist, end on the way be spilled
a small quantityof the liquid upon hie clothes. The clothes
ignited immediately, and the officer was very
seriously injured about the arms and breast.
Another account states that the house in Salisbury-street
was kept by a Mrs. Blackmore, a native of Dublin, and
a widow. Two Irish offizers, assisted by detectives
Graham and P. Scaife, visited the house on Tuesday,
and found in the toroom three tubs containing between
60 and IV bottles. Each of the bottles contained from a
pint to three gallons of explosive liquid. The cartridges
and revolvers were also found in this room. When ques-
tioned Mrs. Blackmore said that about Christmas three
men, Farrell, Mulleada, and Cox came to lodge at her
house. The two first were a joiner and carpenter, and Cox
a bricklayer. They were (she said) all members of the
Volunteer Irish brigade. In about a month after
Farrell introduced a man named Brooks, who re-
satined at the house for a day or two, and was reported as
a dealer in hardware from Sheffield. During his stay
a porter brought some hampers at different times
containing what was said to be hardware. These were
carried up to the top room, locked up, and the key taken
by Brooke. Farrell, the landliuly states, left for America
lost Tuesday. Brooks has disappeared, but she does not
know where to. Cox enlisted some time ago. Before
Brooks disappeared he frequently visited the house, and
always went to inspect the goods deposited in the top
room. Mulleada is supposed to be still somewhere in the
town. The arrest of Ilaines, the head centre recently
arrested in Birkenhead, and who was frequently seen at or
near the house in Salisbury-street, appears to have dis-
turbed the conspirators. Sinoe June an American gentle-
man named Leonard has been living in the house, but he
left before the police began their search on Thursday, and
has not been seen since. Ho is an elderly stout man with
large husky whiskers. In the room occupied by Leonard
and Mulleada Mrs. Blackmore found a black leather belt,
al military make, marked with the letters U. S. in brass.
This has been handed) to the police.
