tempted Assassination IN O'Donovan
Rossa's Once.
New York, Jan. 10.-Capt. John Phelan,
who was invited to O'Donovan Rossa's
Office and then stabbed, for making alleged
divalgences against the dynamiters, is inn
proving, and his recovery is likely. Short,
who is accused of having attempted the
assassination, was arraigned in the Tombs
Police Court to-day. There were few peo-
pie in the room when he was led in. He
did not look bit anxious. He was plainly
dressed. His 0vercoat was well worn.
Underneath he wore check pea jacket, a
lawn tennis shirt of olive green. dark
trousers and heavy shoes. His counsel,
Assemblyman James Oliver, held long
conversation with him. Short frequently
placed his hand upon his right eye, which
was swollen and marked as though it had
received blow during the fracas. While
he was standing up bullet hole could be
plainly seen in Shorts overcoat. The
leaden ball went through the undercoat,
cut the pocket of the vest and then passed
through the fob pocket of Shorts trousers,
without cutting the lining When spoken
to he appeared to be very nervous, but de-
clined to answer any question, until as he
said, he knew what the Magistrate could
do in the case His wife and daughter oc-
cupied seats near the door leading
to the prison. They were overwhelmed
with grief. and cried bitterly. v hen the
case was called Mr. Oliver stated that as
the complainant was absent, it would be
impossible to so on with an examination.
He knew, be said, that the case was not q
bailable one, but asked the court to in
struct Officer Levy, having charge of the
prisoner, to submit report from the hos
pital once in every twenty-four hours at
least. His client, he said, pleaded not
guilty to the charge. In response to q
question by Justice O'Reilly, the police
man said that the physician in charge was
unable to say whether Phelan would re-
cover or not. The prisoner was then re-
manded to await the result Of the injuries,
and sent down stairs to the Tombs prison,
where he was soon after seen by reporter.
81 have" said he, sheen enjoined by my
counsel against saying anything about the
stabbing. But in justice to my family, my
friends and myself will say that IN time |
can prove my innocence.
Mr.. O'Donovan Rossn said: 81 cannot
understand it, no matter how look at it.
It is too bad that the thing s1ould have oc-
CURED at all, but happening in my Office
makes it all the more unfortunate for me.
If anybody says that / wrote to Captain
Phelan, asking him to come to New York to
explain the statements, they are guilty Of a
falsehood.

The SUNDAY TArrLER hopes TO make
itself, by tue completeness Of it's special in
formation. the recognized organ Of the
Orders Of one kind and another in which
its readers are interested the Free Masons
and Odd Fellows. the Knights Of Pytkias
and of Honor, the Legion of Honor, the
Order of Forresters. tho Ancient Order of
Hibernians, the Good Templars, Royal Ar
canum, Order of United American Mechan-
les, Order Of United Workmen, Land
League, the Schutzen Corps, the Saenger-
nsttnde, and of all the other German, Irish
and American protective, cooperative,
benefit and social organizations IN the
county. If the officers or members of the
various organizations will send us notes Of
the matters that interest the members of
such organization every week, we shall not
only be glad to give them space in each
Sundays paper but shall feel under per-
sonal obligations. We design, too, to give
needed space to the publication Of little
items Of local interest to the Grand Army
of the Republic, to the Veterans and to the
State Militia. We propose, too, to make
the paper the recognized medium for the
circulation of news of interest to the at
PENDANTS or officers of the churches, of
whatever denomination, in the county, and
hope to receive from our church readers in
formation of passing events that interest
them. We do not ask for news that inter-
ests the churches generally. 1t is enough
if it interests the church you attend or only
the society Of the church with which you
are particularly identified. We should be
glad, too, if our lady readers would send us
notices of society events in which they par
ticipate, or personal information that it
would please them to make public. The
clubs of various kinds, too-social, dramatic
in sporting-will find welcome space in our
columns Tor whatever bits of gossip their
members may see fit to supply us with.
The schools, too. should be represented.
There is much going on in them that is
never given to the public; and if we could
persuade the principals and tutors to send
us occasional bits of interesting gossip from
their class rooms, we should feel ourselves
greatly favored and gladly accord their jot-
tings space. We impose but one condition
that is that the communications be attested
by the signatures of the persons sending
them-the signatures not being forpublca-
ton, of course, but only to guarantee the
commences of what is written. The TAT
TIER, like every other reputable newspaper,
pays no attention whatever to anonymous
communications.
