LONDON, March 5.--The police seem to
be on thexight trail for the discovery of
the authors of the dynamite outrages and
think they have evidence which will soon
lead to their capture. 1t has been learn
ed that three men landed at Southamp-
ton Feb. Goth from steamer from New
York, two of them gentlenanly like in
appearance, and the other rough and SAIL
orllke. They purchased two portman-
teaux. one OF which has been identified
as that found at Charlng Cross station
filled with explosives. The other was
that found at Victoria station. A por-
tion of an overcoat was found at Charlng
Cross being similar garment to that
worn by one Of the three men. 1t is be-
lieved that there were other men who
have not been traced, who landed at
Southampton and acted in concert with
the three whose movements are partially
known, but kept aloof from them. The
three men first mentioned left Southamp-
ton about the same tine the two gentle
men came to London, where one went d.
rectly to the Waverly House. He had
with HIM valisc as heavy as lead. The
other man went to Waver]y. A few days
later they left the hotel, and two boxes
made to contain small American clocks
and a cash box similar to that in the port
manteau found at Paddington we're dis
covered. The sailor took ticket from
Southampton for Bristol, but this Is not
believed to be his destination. He had
written letter to Limerick. 1t is sup
posed six men are concerned IN the plot
and divided themselves in three parties.
