order created by the crowds attending the
trial OF the Irish conspirators, the court
decided to allow none except those who
receive tickets Of admission to enter the
room, so that rude and violent characters
cannot disturb the progress Of the trial.

threatening outside, and large show OF
force was necessary to prevent breach Of
the peace. The interest in the case as 1t
was resumed seemed more intense than
ever, as expectation has been on tip.toe.

sible 10 the men arraigued for the crime at
Phoenix Park, and revelations Of the most
atrocious nature are expected as the testi-
mony proceeds.
