doings in Phoenix Park, as stated by james
Carey at the preliminary hearing. Smith
aaid he was sworn in ss an Invincibie three
weeks before the murders. The Invincibles
had q secret sign by which they recognized
each other, which was holding Of the knife
in the palm of the hand.
The physicians who examined the bodies
of Cavendish and Burke then gave evidence
relative to the nature Of the wounds.
The case for the prosecution closed at
o'clock. The case for the defense then
opened. The photographs recognized by Ca
rey as No. L" were thoss of lyman.
| Counsel for defense spoke sn hour. His
argument was in support of an alibi for tile
prisoner James Mullett.
| Another of the prisoners has made a state
ment to the Crown. OF the strength of which
| it is said he will be accepted as an approver.
Counsel denounced Caiey's villsiny in hav.
ing betrayed those whom he had seducsd into
the commission Of crime. The informe,s, he
said, contradicted each other on important
points. The rule was infamous that an in
! formers testimony, unsccompanied by any
other evidence, should be accepted. Inter
ested evidence must be corroborsted by dis
interested testimony. In this case such evil
dence was lacking.
Annie Mesgher deposed that she wss with
Brady at her uncle's houss on the 9th of May
! al y 4, NJ, anu again rum OstO
evening.
The keeper of public house, named Lit.
tie. deposed that Brady was in his house at 4
P NJ, and again at $40 in the evening on the
9th of May.
A cross examination, however. elected the
! fact that Little's house was the regular rem
devious of the Inyipcibles. At 6 o'clock the
Court adjourned.
It is expected that verdict will be rem
dered early tomorrow.
DUBLIN, April 12th.-As Brady was con.
veyed back to prison there were misses for
Carey and cheers for Brady. The demonstra-
ton was so marked that the police arrested
two Of the offenders.
The Dynamiiers.
LONDON. April 12sh.-Norman, Gallagher,
Dalton, Wilson, Curtin and Ansburgh
were taken to the Bow Street Police Court
this morning in the prison van. driven of o
rapid pace and accompanied by a guard of
armed police and mounted constablss g. A
large crowd followed the prisoners to the
Courthouse. The whole route was lined
with policemen, and every precaution to pre-
vent rescue u as tsker.
The prisoners were arraigned before Judge
Iugham. Smyth, Gould and Quincy ap-
peared for the defense. Poland, opening for
the prosecution, declared there was no doubt,
authorities that a conspiracy was in exist
ence in America, the purpose of which was
the destruction of buildings in this country !;
that the factor invoked by the conspirators
was dynamite; that the same men now on
trial in Court came from the United States
for the purpose of putting their schemes into
operation; that they had furnished means
and men to establish the recently Undiscovered
dynamite mandatory in Birmingham, and

the mandatory of Whitehead, at his place
in Birmingham, with the purpose of sending
to London a supply of explosives. In this
connection, dates were an important
link in the chain of evidence. Nor.
man, on the 22i of March, went to
Easton Square to live. He remained fourteen
days. April I'd he went to Birmingham,
saying he was going to get his luggage. He
did not return at the appointed time. His
plan was, without doubt, changed while in
birmingham, and it was decided that he
should take a package of nitro-glycerine to
the Southampton-street hotel, where Gala
cher hired a room for Norman. The latter
telegraphed Gallagher on the 9th of April
that he would return to his quarters in
Esston Square. He did come back, and at
Easton Square man took a box brought by
Norman, containing some bags Of nitro
plyceriue, and left them at the place ia

to show that Norman and Wilson repeatedly

ment has been regarded by gentlemen from
the United States as 9 tissue Of falsehoods.
To show that Gallagher was really the dis.
penssr of the funds of the Society, Poland
pointed out the fact that he had in his pos
session when arrested els in English notes,
stamped by q New York firm in the same
way in which the notes taken from Norman
were stamped. It was clear, therefore, that
he was enc Of the principal conspirators, and
not an innocent clerk, or even the dups of a
sharp rascal. Gallagher himself brought the
sinews of war from thu United States. Gal
lagher himself communicated with all the
subordinate conspirators. Gallagher tele-
graphed Whitehead on the Goth of March,
promising TO see him soon. Curtin, en- ar.
irving in London, reported by letter to Gal
lagher, not being advised Of the latter's ar.
rest. When the officers captured Curtin
they found upon him certain diary, In which
he had recorded the places be had visited since
his arrival in England. The list included
Glasgow, Blackburn and Liverpool. II
would appear in evidence that Curtin also
was enc of the chief persons of the con.
spiracy. The papers in Gallagher's luggage
referred to Ansburgh. whom Gallagher visited

years ago, and his letters showed that he had

prisoners be remanded for week, so that hi
might become informed of the proceedings il
other parts Of the Kingdom where similar
cases were being examined. He also init
mated that the charges against these mel
would be changed from the comparatively
simple one on which they are now arrsigneC
to the serious ofense of conspiracy, and as il
was decided by the band of men to effect tht
objects of the conspiracy regardless OF the los
of life which would result, it was question
which only the magistrate could decide, whesh

after.
A lot of papers were put in evidence, in
J Guiding catalogue of chemical firm of Biz
mingham. The latter was found at Norman'
lodgings, and contained full directions fol
making dynamite.
, The proprietor Of the hotel where Norman
was stopping when arrested was brought face
to face with Gallagher, and testified that tc
the best Of his belief be was the person who,
under the name of Fletcher, several times
visited Norman.
A daughter of the hotel proprietor, from
whom Gallagher engaged rooms for Norman,
positively identified him as Fletcher.
The proprietor of the hotel where Ans
burgh stopped identified Gallagher as man
who had visited Ausburgh.
The clerk at the Chsring Cross Hotel,
where Gallagher boarded, failed to recognize
any of the prisoners as men who visited Gal
