An American Citizen fn COnfinement-
 Our Government to Protect Its Citizens
 in Ireland.
 LONDON, March 1O.-The friends of Boyn- ton are sanguine that they can procure his re- lease through American intervention. They quote the cases of John McCafferty and Will liam Mackey, who were on trial for treason and felony in Cork in January, and were on proof of being foreigners admitted to bail on their own recognizances and told by Justice Keogh that if they left the country they would not be required to come to trial. Six months ago Boynton applied for renewal of his American passport for Ireland, which was refused. Boynton is brother of Paul Boynton, the well-known swimmer.
 MT. Parnell has issued manifesto to the electors at Coventry, in which he is very hard on the Liberals and says the Tories would have produced a better land bill than the present one. He urges the weakening of the present ministry.
 ADublm dispatch says more arrests under the coercion act were made Thursday. The total number now in jail is thirty. The French press denounce arrests under the CO., ercion act
 Michael Boynton has asked Mr. Lowell, the American minister, to interfere in his be- half, on the ground that he Is citizen Of the United States. Mir. Lowell has requested the particulars of his case. It is reported that the American government has resolved to protect it's citizens in Ireland and to procure a speedy trial for. them.
 A quantity of arms were discovered at Kanturk to-day, and under the town bridge one hundred ''croppy" bikes were found by a policeman. The bikes appear as if they had been buried some time.
 In the House of Commons this evening, by applying cloture, the arms bill was amended and it will have it's third reading tomorrow. There is rumor that the government in tends to propose another rule to the commit tee of supply.
 DUBLIN, March 1O.-Three further ar rests under the coercion bill have been made to-day. The men arrested have no political or social prominence, and their arrest is said to be due chiefly to personal animosity enter tained against them by influential residents of their vicinage. The Dublin MoiS to day, commenting upon their arrests, asks whether the leaders in the land reform agitation are to be allowed to escape while their dupes and followers are daily arrested, dragged from their homes and shut up in prison without hope of release, their families meanwhile be- ing left to starve or their business wholly r,,ina

Gang of Young Thieves Captured.
 CHIcAGo March 1O.-A gang of eight young thieves, seven of whom are under seventeen years of age, and the eighth, who is twenty four, hired by the others at $1 a day, were captured by the police last night, as they were removing to hiding place fif- teen basks of quicksilver, which they had thrown into the snow from 8 freight car of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad company, near South Park, either on Tuesday or Wednesday morning. The depredations of this gang of criminals date back to New Years. They have made it their practice to board freight cars, either breaking locks or finding doors open. Groceries and dry goods were generally their spoil, which they would throw out alongside of the track, to be pick ed up by companions. In addition to the fifteen fasks of quicksilver recovered, it is known that they have stolen this kind of freight before, and pawned it. The police have for some time been informed of the robberies, which are reported to have aggre- gated more than $19 1000.

cept Sunday. Fully five thousand spectators were present at o'clock. O'Leary, who had nearly made up his lost ground during the early part of the day, fell of again in the evening. At ' o'clock Vaughan, after an hours rest came on the track again and walked at the rate of five miles an hour. His style was much admired and frequently ap- plauded. O'Leary's efforts during the day seemed to have had bad effect upon him and he was frequently compelled to retire to his cabin for. short rests, and it was stated for stimulants also. Powell, who had announced his retirement from the race early in the day, came on the track at S:30 and gave an exhibition of his Eanning powers. His efforts, which at times reached ten miles an hour speed, were loudly applaud ed. OLeary, after making one mile, was compelled to seek his cabin for rest. The bookmakers, seeing that his chances for beat ing Vaughan were very slim, offered to bet 100 to 30 against him, with but very few takers. Vaughan is now a strong favorite, and his winning is looked upon as almost certain. At p. m. O'Leary was still of the track Powell left the track at 9:10, after complet- ing a six mile exhibition run in forty min utes. He seemed not the least distressed, and walked to his cabin laughing. At 9:15 Vaughn was alone. Having obtained twelve mile lead he took matters comparatively easy and limited himself to a four mile gait. O'Leary came on at 9:33, and after making two laps retired to his cabin again much to the disgust of the spectators. It was then openly stated that he had been taking 'stimulants too ire auently, but his trainer refused to give any Information upon the subject. At 10 o'clock the score was Vaughan 336, OLeary 322. At II o'clock Vaughan 34o, o'Leary s25 At midnight Vaughan 342, O'Leary 325.
 At the end of the ninetieth hour Vaughan was over 24 miles behind the best recorded time, although within four miles of O'Leary's record in Chicago in 1875. At midnight the attendance was small. Campana co. SD very drunk, got on the track and was uncer- emoniously hustled out. At 1:30 p. m. Vaughan retired for the night, being 17a miles ahead of O'Leary. During the day Vaughan walked 699 and O'Leary 54s miles.

Piping a Gang of COunterfeiters.
 DALLAS, March 10.-Considerabie furry has been created among State and federal of- ficials by the discovery of the presence of band of bold counterfeiters in this neighbor- hood. The criminals have been working to- gether with great skill and success. They were tracked by Pennsylvania detectives to Dallas and then clues as to their whereabouts failed The officers says this particular gang have made good counterfeits of 50 and 100 dollar bills on the First and Fourth National banks of Boston, which are out in different ,parts of the country and large sum in smaller commercials on about dozen banks. All these have lately been sent to showers in Texas in large amounts. Seventeen thousand dollars in large bills were sent in one con- signment, and the detectives say they have traced this entire amount to three of the seven showers engaged by the gang, the three now being in the neighborhood of Dallas. The detectives further allege that the same gang of counterfeiters have been successful in securing good plates of Texas bank notes, commercials of which may be expected. Seventeen thousand doliarss re- ward is offered for the capture of the seven

THE FIRE RECORD.
The Great Blaze at Parts-Thousa

The Great BIaze at Paris-Thousands
 Going Up In Smoke.
 PARIS, March 1O.-When the alarm was given that the Magasin du Printemps was burning the firemen did what they could with the engines at their disposal, but all was useless. The flames spread with frightful rapidity, and within three hours the Prin- temps itself was complete wreck. At 9:3O the fire had extended to adjoining houses in the Rue de Province and was threatening those in the Rue de Caumatin and on the Boulevard Haussmann. Two steam fire engines and few pipes were at work. The whole inside of the store was burnt. Every few minutes parts of the wall fell with crash to the imminent peril of the fremen on duty. The whole neighborhood IS still 1n a state of violent excitement and it is diff cult to get any accurate information as to the cause of the fire which it is said originated in the carpet department on the entresol fac ing the Rue de Province, and was due to the carelessness of one of the night watchmen. Several firemen who were dragged out badly burnt from the glowing embers are lying in a precarious condition. At 11:30 the roof of the Printemps was completely destroyed and the Pontage in the Rue du Havre literally crumbled into pieces. The loss is greatly az gravated by the fact that the spring season opened Monday last As the sales at this time of the year average several hundred thousand francs daily, the amount of new stock accumulated was very large.

vennor Promises More Winter.

-VennOr PFOm1908 UOTe W 1hGsFs
 MONTREAL, March 1o.-Vennor writes eThe winter of 1881 is not over yet by any means, and nothing in my opinion could render this more probable than the present term of mild weather. There are yet st least three storm periods in this month, namely on the 12th, 18th or 14th, on the 16th and 17th, and lastly on the goth and Fist. The last two periods will give us heavy snow falls, one Of which will be the heaviest fall of the winter. This will be pretty general over large part of North America, and is likely to cross over to Great Britain. There will be also one moro cold dip of considerable severity. The month will end with rain and slush."
 It has been showing here all day. Toward night the weather turned cold and is now freezing. The snow storm still continues.
