Inquest Over the Bodies Of Cav
endish and Burke.

OObLlN, Ady O.-Ab tnO AuIuCob
yesterday on the bodies of Lord
Frederick Cavendish and Under
Secretary Burke medical evidence
was given to the effect that the VIC
Tins had apparently been stabbed
simultaneously from before and be>
hind with long bowie knives. The
wounds all appeared to have been
inflicted with exactly similar weap-
ons.
The illuminations in honor of the
release of suspects have been com>
pletely abandoned. ALI the Dublin
papers appear in mourning.
Arrests are constantly being made
in various parts of Ireland of par,
ties resembling, in some degree, the
descriptions given in the police cir
cular of the suspected murderers of
Burke and Cavendish. Orders have
been issued to arrest all strangers
and tramps who are unable to &C
count for their movements during
the last three days.
LONDON, May 9.-The Daily News
prints rumor which was current in
the lobby of the House of Commons
last evening that the forthcoming
Irish protection bill will provide
that in certain cases of murder. trial
by jury will be suspended and the
accused will be tried before three
Judges with the right of appeal.
The report is confirmed that
George Otto Trevelian has been ap-
pointed Chief Secretary for Ireland.
The Pail Mall Gazette says that Leo
nard Fl. Courtney, Member of Par
lament for Liskard, will
become Joint Secretary to
the Treasury to fill the place.
held by Lord Frederick Cavendish,
previous to his appointment as Chief
Secretary for Ireland. Immediately,
it says, upon Trevelians acceptance
of the office, special policeman was
placed on duty before his residence.
A Times leading article says: Even
if i be true that the murder Of Car
vandish and Burke, was done by
AmericansIrish desperadoes, we must
not forget that Parnell has boas.ed
OF consolidating an allsence between
the Irish in America and those at
home. We are unable to accept the
plea that the men who have pursued
the Land League course are divested
of all responsibility for the crimes
they now denounce. The Times con-
tinues to emerge cally attack Parnel-
lie members eteParliament.
It says 1t is morally impossible to
enter into any understanding with
those who denounce outrages. The
first time they feel that it cripples
their operations, though they profess
to negotiate in the House of Com
mons Tor the bloodthirsty element OF
Iri1h people. They are only powe-
full to excite disaffection they cannot
diminish the malignance of whole
class, who wallow in blood like beasts
of prey.
Mr.. Gladstone, in a published
statement, announces that he has re-
ceived O flood of communications
from every part of the kingdom ex>
pressive of the horror and indigna-
tion at the crime. He says tits only
just to state that none are more re-
markable for fervor and sincerity
than the large number from all parts
of Ireland. He wishes to express
his sense of genuine feeling, shown
| by communications, and his personal
thanks for the sympathy manifested.
In the House of Lords this even
ing, the Marquis of Lansdowne an
nounced that in consequence of the
recent ministerial statements relative
to the impending measures for the
protection of life and property il
Ireland, he depicted the motor
which he had announced against the
Irish policy of the government. HI
said he wished to impress upon the
government very earnestly, the
necessity of not yielding TO the
popular demands without the adop
ton of compensating measures fol
strengthening the law.
