New YORK, October l3.-Cables to
the Irish World from the Secretary OF the
Land League, Dublin:
DUBLIN, October 13.-Parnell was ar
rested in his bed this morning, and i'm
mediately lodged in Kilmainham Jail.
Ireland is in ferment Dublin is in
state OF terrible excitement. The city
is an armed camp, showing that this
has been a premeditated and prepared
for action. No event in the history OF
Irelsnd has so stirred Dublin, and its
only parallel is Paris at the destruction
OF the Bastile.
[~ignedl QUINN, Secretary.
DUBLIN, October Is, Noon.-The con.
dition OF things at this hour is awful.
The Wave Of Indignation
gathers force as the moments fly, and
there is no telling when it may break or
what the consequences may be. The
Land League Executive is at this mo.
ment sitting, with Dillon in the chair.
The worst is being prepared for. II is
rumored that the government will take
military possession OF the Land League
headquarters and proceed TO the utmost
extremity OF brute force to repress the
organization. Calm, but deliberate and
decisive action can be looked for from
the men at the head. Men in America,
stand firmly by us! There need be no
fears of the ultimate result.
[Signedl JOSEPH p. QUINN,
Secretdru.
