Precautions in London.
Recent events have convinced the gov

/ is no safer than Dublin, and il has been
thought necessary TO take extraordinary
precautions ia the public offices 70 guard
srofrar fire. The late fire in St. kath-
a-ina's Dock was always believed to be
rbe work OF au incendiRrv, and common
rumor now asserts the criminal g pOllJl-

The leaders in Ireland Csptured with

lie slaughter of those whom rank and

I ireland and England, after all, 30
much as between the upper and lower
classes of Irishmen that the struggle is to
rslzz rlace. FeniRnism has no high and
sD,ofIing cause % fight for. There Is
ftrle enthusiasm IN it., but great 1eal Ol
-eldshnesz and great desire OF plunuef.
The houd that unites the brethren Is not

the commission Of a common crime. To
