The Execution of William Alger at Warsaw.

IV A its , Friday.
The execution of Alger, one of the workmen employed in
the factory of Evans and Co., for manufacturing grenades,
took place in the court yard of the building yesterday. All
the workmen of the factory were compelled by the police to
be witnesses of the fate of their comrade. At half.past nine
the condemned man, under military escort, entered the fac-
tory yard, the gates of which were immediately closed
against the crowd collected in the street. Only two or three
favoured persons were adruttted—among others the Eng-
lish consul general, Col. Stanton, and Mr. Ran, the part-
ner of Messrs. Evans, Messrs. Evans Brothers having re-

The proprietors of the factory were condemned by Cien.
Berg to pay a fine of 15,000 rouble?, but the Englim,
consul protesting against the injustice of the order and
representing that, owing to Mr. Evans' absence in.
England at the time the manufacture of the grenades
took place, it was impossible that he could have any com-
plicity in the affair, the decree was cancelled. To obviate
the belief of this unusual lenity being in any way owing to
foreign interference, the chief of the police published tho
following order in the Police Gazelle :

" It was announced in the _Dzienng: Potenteliny of the
6th of October that a fine of 15,000 roubles had been im-
posed upon the proprietors of the iron foundry carried on by
Messrs Evans and Co., for having permitted the prepara,
tion of hand grenades, despite the regulations of the state of
siege, and the factory would remain closed until the afore-
said fine was paid. Upon the representation, however, of
his excellency the chief of the third division of gendarmerie,
Major-General Trepow, that Mr. Evans and the other par,
ticipators in the foundry, as quiet citizens, were not aware
of the manufacture of the grenades (the number of which
was only small); thit the workmen in the factory took no
share whatever therein ; and further, that the regulations of
the state of siege, rendering employers responsible for their
workpeople, had not at that time been published, his excel•,
lancy the ad interim governor, Gen. Berg, has been pleased
to order that Mr. Evans be relieved from the payment of
the fine of 15,000 roubles, and that his factory be again
opened for the transaction of business.
