ANOTHER DYNAMITE SCARE


LONDON. June 2.-There is another incipf-
mt dyna mite scare in London. Some Of the
newspapers state that two desperate dvna-
niters, affiliated with Burton and Cunning
lam, and sworn to avenge their life senten-
,es, have arrived in the metropolis from
America by way OF Switzerland. 1t is said
that they are armed with a new kind of ex-
olosive machines, in which the chances Of
failure are reduced to minimum, and that
their first attempt at destruction will be
made at Westminster soon after the reas-
sembling of parliament on Thursday. In
addition to these statements by the newspa-
pers, the police have received several letters
warning them that fresh outrages may be
expected Some of these letters are anonv-
nous, but others are from reputable
lodging house keepers who seem honestly to
fear that they are unwittingly harboring
some of tie conspirators. The authorities
at Scotland Yard profess to ridicule these
stories, but there are good reasons to be-
lieve that there is at least some truth in
them. 1t is certain that the police are cares
fully following up the hints given in all the
letters which have genuine signatures, and
they have renewed the precautions for the
protection of public building and cabinet
officials which were taken after the explo-
sions of last January and discontinued after
about x weeks.

WASHINGTON, June 3-The news Of the
suicide of the late First Auditor Reynolds,
at st. Louis, was received here. Great sur
prise was expressed and his friends ara at
loss to account for the act. The SUICIDE
theory is discredited by many Of them. The
loss of his Office could not have led TO suicide,
his friends say, as he was a man OF property.
On the other hand he suffered greatly from
infammatory rheumatism. He was also
afflicted with vertigo. He was native of
Ohio and was a colonel of regiment from
that state. After the war he settled in
Alabama, from which state he was APP
pointed first auditor of Che treasury in 1878,
retaining that position until about month
ago when he was succesled by Gen. Cheno-
with. of Texas.
