dence Against Whitehead.
LONDON, April 26.-The seven prisoners
Dr. Gallagher, Bernard Gallagher, White
head, Dalton, Ansburgn,i Wilson and Curtin
who are charged with treason felony in
| connection with the unlawful use of explo-
sives, were again arraigned for examination
this morning. The first witness called by
| the prosecution was clerk employed at the
American Exchange. He testified that DR..
Gallagher called at the Exchange and in
quired for letters addressed to Mr.. Caller, and
had shown the utmost anxiety to gain pos
session OF them. Witness thought Ansburgh,
who was with him, was passing under the
name of 'Galer" for the purpose of procur-
ing the letters
A druggist of Birmingham testified that
Whitehead had bought at his store 100
pounds of nitric acids, 300 pounds of sui
phuric acid and so pounds of glycerine. On
being cross-examined by the counsel for the
defense, witness said Whitehead was appar-
emily only stocking his shop with acids used
| by various manufacturers
Inspector Boyd, of the Glasgow police,
swore that Bernard Gallagher, when arrested
| in Glasgow, SAID he was in America at the
time the explosion in that city with
| which he was charged occurred. He said he
| came to England on Feb. 9, under the name
of Campbell. Boyd said Bernard notified
the authorities in the early part of the
month that lie wished to give information.
The inspector further testified as to the
statements Bernard Gallagher had made
touching the doings of the conspirators. He
offered to go to London and induce his
brother to tell everything, and identify all
| the conspirators. He connected O'Donovan
Rosa with their plans. Whitehead, he said
was about the first man to come to England
/ He SAID he knew all the conspirators about
thirty in number he had seen them in
Brooklyn.
Another druggist swore that Whitehead
bought from him 200 pounds of glycerIne.
He said Whitehead also bought from another
firm ,543 pounds of nitric acid and 5000
pounds of sulphuric acid, paying for them in
cash. Whitehead said he wished acid of the
usual strength. Hearing then adjourned
until Thursday next.
Inspector Boyd said Gallagher told him he
was accompanied in Catalonia by a person
| named Coleman. Bernard returned to New
l York by the Germanic, but was again sent to
England almost directly by his brother, who
instructed him to tell Curtin to go to Lon
| don. Bernard was accompanied on both
| voyages by a man whose name was some
thing like oxford, this person beloging to
the dynamite school, and went to London
Gallagher heard his brother say the good
work was not done by this school,
but by irish conspirators Bernard
stated that another brother, named Dan
iel, and Coleman returned to New
York in the Germanic, because
they did not believe in doing what Curtin
wished to have done. Byrne stated that
Bernard, when in custody at Glasgow, offered
to go to London in the service of the police
I II IL all
knew, and said he (Bernard) would identity
all the consprators. He said there were a
number of rich men in the dynamite school
in New York, and that O'Donovan Rosa was
connected with one school. The latter state
ment, the inspector said, was made casually
Bernard stated that Whitehead was about
| the first conspirator to come to England
He knew all the conspirators, having seen
them in Brooklyn; there were about thirty OF
them. Bernard became excited at the ex-
posure of his attempt to turn informer, and
several times corrected the details OF the in
spectors testimony.
