Especial Cablegram to the Globe.
LONDON. Jan. 25.-Advices received here
from st. Petersburg give some interesting
details of the recent arrests in Moscow. Sew
eral persons have been arrested by tho po-
lice. From the preliminary examination
to which persons have been subjected, it
appears that plot was on foot in every way
similar to that of the first of December, both
as to the aim in view and the means by
which it was to be attained. The conspira-
tors intended to blow up the car on his
next Journey to Moscow. IL was in the pal
ace of Keemlin that the revolutionists wished
to punish the czar for the obstinate resist
ance with which he has met their demands
for reforms and liberties.
THE APPEAL OF THE LORD MAYOR.
The lord mayor of Dublin has issued an
appeal through the London press in behalf
of the Mansion house relief committee,
stating that committee is not con-
nected with any other organization,
and that it consists of representatives
of all creeds and all shades of
politics. The appeal states evidence &C
cumulates that there is scarcely county in
Ireland in which terrible privation does not
exist. In some portion, though, it is more
severe, in the western counties and on the
northwest and southwest seaboards. The
Lord Mayor fears the public of London
does not realize the gravity of the crisis, or
that unless prompt assistance be given
thousands of people must die of starvation.
He cannot think that if they did they who
gave hundreds of thousands to avert the
famine in India would have given less to the
Dublin Mansion House fund.
The lord mayor states that $4,000
have already been distributed of the 100000
received, but that this is mere drop
in the ocean of need. He fears recurrence
of the disaster of 1847, when abundant as
sis lance was promised, but too late to save
life.
PARNELL IN AMERICA.
LONDON, Jan. 25.-The Paris
Times, commenting on the
sympathy shown ParneIl by American dig
nitaries and legislators, says: "Parnell has
evidently been adroit in selecting the time
for his American campaign. A Presidential
election will be held in the course of this
year and the vote of 100000 Irish electors
is very important. There is no wish to
estrange the Irish, and this is why Parnell
is supported. He will return to Ireland with
the prestige of great success and the
strength given by respectable sum of
money. His party will therefore approach
the coming election in especially favorable
circumstances, with an organization all pre-
pared and with plenty of money"
