Arrests on Suspicion What
Eye-Witnesses say.
SYMPATHY FOR THE CAvENDIsH FAMILY.
LONDON, May Society, beginning
with the Queen, who sent telegram of
coincidence to the relatives of Lord Fred
erick Cavendish, has made demonstra-
ton of sympathy as remarkable as that
which occurred on the death of Presi-
dent Garfield. Many columns of the
morning papers are filed with the names
of those who have called to express SYM
pathy with the relatives of Lord Freder-
ick Cavendish. His remains will be con-
veyed to England on Tuesday, and in
tered at Chatsworth ON Wednesday.
A HUGE REWARD TALKED OF.
DUBLIN, May There will be an in
d!gnation meeting of the citizens of Dub
lin to-day, the Mayor presiding. A huge
subscription as a reward for information
leading to the discovery of the murder
ers is talked of.
GENERAL ABnoRRENCE OF THE CRIME.
Cork, May IA meeting of citizens,
including the Nationalist and Land
Leaguers was held to-day. The Mayor
presided Even the extreme land leagu-
ers present suggested the closing of the
shops as mark of sympathy. Resolu-
tions were unanimously adopted declat-
ing the crime one which calls on heaven
for vengeance, aa.' .'repudiating its authors
with disgust and adherence.
HOW THE AFFAIR OCCURRED.
New York, May S.-A cable special
gives additional points OF the assassina-
ton. The attack was so sudden and
silent that it scarcely attracted any
notice; but the scutfe was observed from
the gardens of the vice regal lodge by
Earl Spencer, who had arrived shortly
before. Imagining that it was merely a
brawl, he gave directions that policemen
be sent to see what was the matter.
Though the murder took place in rather
secluded part of the grounds there
were three or four witnesses at q dis
tance from the occurrence, but no outcry
having apparently been raised, no one
seems to have suspected the desperate
nature of the encounter, and it was
thought to be only drunken brawl.
All accounts agree that the assassins
were four in number, and drove in a
Park car; but none of the spectators
were sufficiently near to be able to
identify either the car on its occupants.
WHAT THE POST -MoRTEM SHOWS.
A post-mortem examination of the
bodies at the Chief Secretarys lodge
showed eleven wounds on Burke and
eight on Cavendish. The chief wound
on the former was inflicted from behind
penetrating the heart, and on the latter
the chief wound was also inflicted from
behind, severing an important artery of
the neck. One wound ON Cavendish's
left forearm had severed the muscles
and factured the bone as if inflicted
with hatchet or sword. The last Of
fetal act of Cavendish in conjunction
with Earl Spencer was to arrange for the
immediate release of all the suspects ex-
cept eighty.
AT THE CHURCHES YESTERDAY.
Four men have been arrested on sus-
picion. The popular feeling is intense.
In all the churches yesterday the mur-
der was discussed, and with scarcely an
exception deplored the outrage and ut
tered the severest decunciations against
the murderers. At the Masses prayers
were offered up for the dead Secretaries.
The report which appears to have the
most color of truth and is most gener-
ally believed is that the four suspects are
Englishmen. Captain Creation, OF the
Dragons, who saw the murderers as
they passed in their car and witnessed
the scufile at distance, said as they
passed, "You have roughly handled
them" They replied: "You be
damned" Creation said he could identi-
fly one of the men concerned in the as
sassination, and the gate keeper of the
mark saws he can identify two.
