he was in Burke's company. The
! inquest on the bodies opened to-day -.
Twenty jurors had been summoned
over night, and all answered to
their names except two. The Jury
consisted of gentlemen. Mounted
police occupied the hospital ward.
There was large crowd of people
outside.
Mr.. Whyte, city coroner, said he
summoned the jury to meet on Sum
day IN order that the remains might
be removed at once. He declared
that language was inadequate to
express the horror and shame which
all must feel. After the jury had
viewed the bodies, the coroner
stated the cause of the death was
quite apparent; but that he would
adjourn the inquest until Monday
for formal evidence. The murder
must have been quite visible from
the windows Of the viee-regal
lodge.
I 1t is said Earl Spencer himself
saw the scuffie from his bedroom
window, but the police were unable
to vouch for the accuracy of the
rumor.
Earl Spencer, to whom the news
was first broken by Colonel Caul-
field, was terribly shocked. He
stated that he intends to resign
Immediately.
A meeting Of conservatives was
held on Sunday afternoon. Sir Stat
ford N0Fthcote, Marquis Salisbury
and all prominent members of the
last conservative cabinet were pres
ent. The meeting lasted an hour.
Resolutions were passed expressing
horror at the deed, sympathy with
government, and the willingness of
the opposition to support govern
ment with their whole strength in
coping with the murderous state of
Ireland. Sir Stafford NorthcOte
said he doubted whether govern
ment would proclaim martial law,
but that if they did, they might
reckon on the support of the con
serYatives.
New York, 8.-The HeraEPS cable
dispatch from Dublin says four men

deplOrlng theOutrage and uttered the
severest Accommodations against the
murderers. At masses prayers were
offered up for the dead. The report,
which appears to have the most
color Of truth, and is most generally
believed, is that the four suspects
are Englishmen. The privy council
has been sitting all day, and three
generals have been in attendance.
Earl Spencer went to the castle this
morning, escorted by hussars. and
remained eight hours with the
council.
1t is remarked that Lord Frederick
was very unwilling to come to Ire
land with Earl Spencer. He wished
to remain in London for some davs
longer, but was urged to come at
once to Ireland where a great mass
Of official work was awaiting him.
Last night at II o'clock a long mes
sage for the deceased lord was re-
ceived from a meeting of his con-
Stituents at Keighley, in Yorkshire,
stating that they had passed a
unanimous vote Ofcon6dence in him
fand government, and would return
him in triumph over his conser-

when the vice royal procession ar
rived at the castle yard. a man
| went forward to CaYendiSh's car
rage and asked il the chief socre-
tary was there. His IOrdship raised
his hat and said, "I am Lord Frede-
rick, Frederick Cavendish." The
man did not reply, but simply looked
on earnestly at the chief secretary,
!. and then walked into the crowd.
Three men of the corner bow class,
were arrested on suspicion at the
village Of ChapeliZed to-day, unable
to give an account of themselves.
They stated that last night they
slept in the fields, one adding, after
ward, that he slept in a lodging
house in Church lane.
The post norton examination of
the bodies at the chief secretarv's
| lodge showed eleven wounds on
Burke and eight on CaYendish. The
chief wound on the former was in
flicted from behind, penetrating the
heart, and on the latter the chief
wound was also inflicted from be-
hind, severing an important artery
on the neck. One wound on Caven-
dish's forearm had cut several mus
cles and fractured the bone, as if in
flicted with a Ratchet or sword. The
body of Burke presented the appear
ance OF a stalwart man for his age,
so years. His face was drawn q
good deal. Cavendish was appar-
emily q man Of slight build, with q
narrow chest. Burke's body pre-
san:ed, as the doctor stated who
saw both bodies, very much the
same appearance as that of Lord
Lictrim.
THE last Official act of Cavendish
in conjunction with Earl Spencer
was to arrange for the immediate
release Of all suspects except eighty.
