TORS.

Court, the Recorder, charging the
Jury, referred to the dynamite
c~onspirators, DIR. Gallagher, Bernard
Gallagher, Whitehead, Curtin, Ans

the six prisoners with treason-felony.

who turned informer, had been permit
ted to give evidence for the Queen. He
would describe the plans of a Fenian
conspiracy which existed in America.
If the Grand jury, said the Recorder.
believed that the prisoners were con-
nected with that conspiracy, they would
return a true bill against them. Lyneb's
evidence. he said, would be most fully
corroborated by other witnesses. Tue
charge had been postponed for some
days, while the Crown were deciding as
to the exact nature of the indictment.
A second indictment, he said. would
be preferred against six of the prisoners
including Lynch, for having in their
possession nitro-glycerine with intent to
commit murder. Lynch would also be
permitted to give Queens evidence in
this case.
The Grand Jury returned true bills in
all the cases within an hour after re-
ceiving the Recorders charge.

BERLIN.-Despite the assurances of
the French that there is no danger of a

that if France declares a blockade of
Chinese ports Great Britain and America
will refuse to regonize it. A French
blockade cannot be effective, and
Germany will certainly support England
and America in opposing it. The Ger
man Government are considering the
question of sending more vessels to the
Chinese coast.
