New YORK, Nov. 27.-Up TO this morning
Connolly had not obtained bail. He was still a
prisoner at the New York hotel, his doorkceper
being a former clerk whom lac once removed,
but who now is a deputy sheriff.
The report of ConnOlly'S arrest created a SEN
SatiOn and surprised every one. The summons
was dated on the 22l, and it was openly charged
that Mr.. Brennan had purposey held it back
three days for the purpose of arresting Mr. Con-
molly on Saturday, on which it is almost impos-
siblc to procure bail. A number oil persons Of
lered to become suretes, but were not able TO
qualify in the sum necessary TO make up the az
gregate amount Of the bond. The reason for
taking Mr. Connolly TO the New York hotel was
its greater security. 1t is alleged the ST. Patrick
alliance, an association largely fostcred by Mr..
Connolly, had made threats of attempting to
rescue him.
Connolly was not baedl late this afternoon.
The surcties found early in the dav,-WaShng-
ton Connolly, Michael Tuomey, Thomas j. Ca
hill, John MOrrisSey and Bernard kelly,-werc
unable to justify in the required amounts.
Henry Hart, it appears, declined to furnish Sc
curity, his brother and partner refusing assent
to assuming so large responsibility. The gen.
tlcmen who have entered bonds thus far are
George Hoffman, 100000; Owen McGOvern,
100000; Washington Connolly, 100000;
Thomas B. Connolly, 100000; and Charles
Connolly, 100000; total, $500 000 1t is said
that Connolly will he permitted to occupy rooms

Of jackson S. Schultz into the affairs of the
Nassau bank, from which it would appear that
