LONDON, Sept. IS
ODonnen was taken from the steamer
Armenian when three miles of Southamp-
Ton, oy police tug, and brought to the
cattle sheds at the end of the quay. The
oetectives kept their movements so secret
tnat lew persons were aware of the landing.
ana with the exception of the police there
were not dozen people present to witness
II. Inc quay was closed to the public, and
the local police guarded the gangway. A
large detachment of London police sur
rounded ODonnell and his party as they
landed. The Police Inspector and some
detectives had immediate personal charge
OF the prisoner, who was not handcuffed,
and who obeyed the orders of his guardians
with alacrity. AS soon as it became pub
licly known that O'Donnell had landed a
rush was made by the crowd along the
nelghboring quays, but the measures taken
by the police were so excellent that the
public obtained only distant view of the
party. When the baggage had been landed
the prisoner was conducted to the rear of
the sheds, where a locomotive and two cars
were in waiting. O'Donnell took seat In
q hrst-class carriage, the policemen filling
the remaining seats. The train was then
rapidly driven along the dock sidings until
u reached the depot, where it was learned
that there would be delay of half an hour.
In view OF this the train ran on q siding
some distance from the main line to avoid
the public, where it awaited the departure
Of the mail train for London, and to which
1t was attached. The start was made at
ten O'Clock, the trip being accomplished
without incident. O'Donneil maintained a
cheerful demeanor, and talked freely, but
without reference to the crime with which
he is charged.
On alighting from the train O'Donnell
penetrable body of police. The spectators
made a rush to obtain a view of the pris-
oner, but the police were too alert, and only
an occasional glimpse of the captive was
obtainable. ODonnell at first appeared to
be nervous, and stepped off the train some-
what hesitatingly, surveying the scene be-
fore him. Soon, however, he drew himself
up erect and descended the stairway more
boldly. Outside the station, while entering
the van, few roughs attempted to raise a
cheer, which was met with some Kisses. A
strong guard was placed inside the van,
behind which followed a cab filed with off,
GERS. The procession then started, the
mounted police encircling the van. A few
Kisses and cheers were again raised, but the
crowd generally was a pathetic. On arriy-
Ing at Mill bank the Deputy Governor of
the prison received the prisoner, no was
forthwith placed in cell. Subsequently
he was visited by Police Superintendent
Williamson. O'Donnell appears more dis
tressed since his Incarceration.
He was brought to the Bow Street Police
Court this morning, closely guarded by
mounted police, and passed through the
streets at rapid pace. On arriving at the
Courthouse he was Immediately placed in
the dock. Frederick Flowers was the pre-
siding magistrate. Poland appeared for
| the crown, and stated that the prisoner
was charged with murder upon the high
seas within the jurisdiction o, the Admiral
ty of England and of this Court"
The witnesses for the crown have not
| yet arrived in England, as it was not
| deemed advisable to bring them on the
same vessel with the prisoner. Poland
asked that the prisoner be remanded for
one week, and stated that he would prob
ably, at the expiration of that time, again
ask but short remand, as he believed the
witnesses would by that time have ar
rived, and he would be able to begin the
case. Magistrate Flowers accordingly re-
manded the prisoner until Tuesday next.
During the hearing O'Donnell was permit
ted to sit in the dock. He manifested great
| interest In the proceedings and maintained
respectful demeanor.
1t has transpired that O'Donnell, after
shooting Carey, said: "Shake hands, Mrs.
Carey; had to do it, and not: II did not
do it, " as first reported. 1t is stated that
the crown has engaged the services of Po-
land, who has already appeared in the
Irish State trials, to prosecute O'Donnell.
Everything indicates that the trial, which
takes place in November, will be mem
orable one. 1t is understood that Mrs.
Carey will offer evidence of most aston.
ishing nature, which she declares will
clear her husbands character. She has
handed the letters to the authorities, which
includes the correspondence of members of
Parliament.
| The prisoner gave his name at Bow Street
as Patrick O'Donnell, though he is de.
scribed in the charge sheet as michael
O'Donnell, puddler, of Gadoure, County
Donegal, Ireland" He will have able
counsel, steps being taken to secure the
services of a well-known Irish member of
Parliament. The police were extremely
active in Nationalist quarters, London, to-
day, making inquiries as to what con-
nection, if any, ODonnell had with Irish
secret societies. MIlbank Prison has been
placed under extra guard, as when the
dynamiters were prisoners.
