LATER-THE FENIAN REVOLT.
LONDON, Feb. Is. eveuing.-The cause
of the Fenian outbreak in south Ireland is
yet buried in obscurity, though the tcle.
graph lines throughout the disaffected
district are again working. Some say the
outbreak was caused by the arrest of an
American officer, Capt. Moriarty; while
others say his prompt arrest prevented a
general rising of the Irish.
The British government lad news of the
affair early on the 18th. An upper SER
want in the household of Earl Kenmore
had received two anonymous notes, stating
the rising was planned in Killarney, and
the leader would reach from Cahoricveen
that night. Constables were immediately
sent to intercept him. They met a wagon
on which they found Moriarty, whom they
took into custody, and upon searching his
person found letters confirming the asser'
tions In the anonymous notes.
A courier named Duggan was sent tC
Cahoricveen to warn the police. A party
of rebels caught him. and demanded the
papers, which he refused to give up anc
attempted to escape They fired on, ant
badly wounded him. SO far as yet known
he is the only person hurt. The polic'
got news of the trouble by other messen-
gers and from several spies among th'
Feniaus. They were strengthened by
detachment from the man-ofwar Gladia
tor, lying off Falentia, and saved thei
station from attack.
One band of Fenans, 90 in number
took horse from their leader, O'Connor
and another band stopped The mail on III
road from Killarney to Cahoricveen, bu
did no violence to any one.
In fact, nowhere has life been taken o
