SPECIAL BY TELEGRAPH TO TIE REc0RD-UNloS.l
NEW YoRS, May Sth.-A cable special
gives the following additional points of the
assassination 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 or its occupants. The only evidence
in this direction is to the effect that the car
was red-backed one, and that after the mur.
der it was driven rapidly toward Chapel Izod,
suburb of Dublin. From the nature of the
wounds, death must in each case have been
almost instantaneous. The Attorney General
for Ireland started for Dublin on the mail
train last night, and the same train conveyed
thither a select contingent force of London
detectives.

house in Church lane. The latest informa-
ton is that the park ranger saw car with
red panels, in which four rough-looking men
were seated, pass out.of the Chapel Izod road.

pearance of the driver of the horse as we'll as

A late dispatch says: Two of the men ar.

from London. 1t is reported that when ar
rested they had in their possession steamer
tickets for America, purchased at an office in
London. showing that they had been bought
or furnished to them in London within o
few days. No official statement of the exact
facts can be had from the authorities, who
are maintaining the utmost reserve concern.

A personal statement was volunteered to a

bodies after the assassination. His name is
Foley. He stated that with his companion

feel il his pulse was beating. He Just gave
his last breath into my face and blood oozed
from his neck. By this time two of the
Royal Irish Constabulary arrived. told

from behind, penetrating the heart, and on
the latter the chief wound was also inflicted

tured the bone, as if inflicted with hatchet

IRISH AMERICANS SUSPECTED.
CORK, May Ssh-A meeting of citizens, in.
Guiding all Nationalists and Land Leaguers,
was held yesterday. The Mayor presided.
Even the extreme Land Leaguers who were
present suggested the closing of shops as q

renee. Speculations are rife as to the origin
of the conspiracy. 1t is suggested that Irish.
American emissaries were employed to COM
nit the crime. A telegram from Limerick
tonight states that Clifford Lloyd has re-
ceived information that three men had left
America to assassinate him. This, it is
thought. gives color to the surmise that the
Dublin tragedy may have had its origin in q
similar conspiracy.
