THE INNER CIRCLE.
LONDON, January pa Dublin dispatch
Iays: Although wide belief exists that
he authorities will now be able TO bring the
pbenix Park assassins to justice, the real
act i. that Fsrrell's assertion that the inner
circle" was so composed that its members
we're unknown TO each other, and therefore
lot 10 be identified, is only TO we'll founded.
NoT THE STRONGEST PART.
The Times Gays it ia evident that Satur-
lay IS proceedings in Dublin unveiled con-
piracy to murder executive officIals. Al
hough the secrets of the prosecutions have
hus far been kept with praiseworthy discre-
ion, it is not believed that counsel for the
.rown has began with the strongest part Of
he case. The inquiry will probably be pro-
racted several weeks.
