THE MA1ERfAL USED SAID TO BE MANCFACTt RED
IL THIS COUNTRY.
LONDON. April 14.-Colonel Majendie, IN his re-
port on the recent dynamite attempts says that
the agent used was lignin dynamite, substance
made in America, the manufacture Of which is not
licensed in England. Further proof of it's American
make he asserts. is found in the fact that slabs OF
the material have been discovered the paper wrap
pings of which were marked ATLAS Powder Compa-
n.y. He says that the clocks used in the infernalma
chimes also of American make and that the pis
tolls were of type common in America. Theireport
shows that ligun dynamite was a component of the
internal machine imported into Malta from Bavaria
III 1881; that II the agent of the explosions In
Fossil Park Glasgow, and at the OitlCe OF me Lon
don Times In 1888, and that il was component OF
the machine found in Liverpool in April 1888, ana
OF the cartridges found in the Primrose lilli tun-
mel in January last The whole report tends to
show that the weapon of the dynamiteurs is hgnln
dynamite, made in America.
In discussing the recent arrests of suspected dyn-
amltenrs The LINES this morning says: The eXpec-
tation is strong that these arrests will lead to I'M
portant disclosures which will throw light upon
the recent explosions We believe that one or two
infOTmers Will be produced who will reveal the
headquarters of the conspiracy whether In France
or America. We are assured that the
French authorities side, and
that the French police will prevent outrages
lea. We do not believe that the American police
would connive at the sending of internal machines
across the Atlantic but az open crusade s preached
In America against England and funds are collected

tho American police They can act now If they
choose. But III the present temper of the American
