NEW YORK, Feb. An immense
throng Of Irish Nationists. members of
the Fenian brotherhood, dynamiters and
others was in the Tombs police court this
afternoon when Richard Short, who
stabbed Capt. Phelan in O'Donovan
Rossa's office, was arraigned for examina-
ton. The police force was also well rep
resented. When Phelan appeared and
Short had been led to the bar Shorts
counsel said he would like to know if
Phelan had been searched. Judge Pat
terson said he supposed he had, but di-
rected the police to search him. The
sergeant put his hand among the band
ages which supported Phelan's left arm
and pulled out a Colts fyeshooter with a
long barrel. There was quite a sensation
in the court when the revolver was dis
covered. Short laughed ~nervously but
seemed TO be relieved when the weapon
was taken from the captain. Shorts
counsel asked the court for an adjourn
ment on the ground that he had Just come
from Albany and was unprepared for the
examination. The prosecution opposed
the adjournment. The judge finally set
the case down for trial Saturday next
The prisoners counsel made a motion to
reduce his clients bail from $1,000 to
81, 200, but the court denied the motion,
saying the bail was none too much in a
case ike this.

liens Of Zovalla and Maverick counties

batting the maauders. Runners have
been sent to- ahulta and other points for
arms and ammunition. Il is ascertained
that the Mexicans crossed the Rio Grande
on the night of the 9th and numbered a
full hundred. They have di-
uded their forces into four
bands who are approaching Garlic
through unfrequented portions Of the
country driving away herds by details as
they advance into the interior. A spirited
running fight occurred to-day between
scouts Of the citizen organization and a
detail Of the Mexicans, when two Of the
maurauders we're killed, and one Ameri-
can wounded. Sheriff Oglesby, Of NAV
erick county, has sent a mounted posse to
the scene of action and the frontier troops
at Uvalde left tonight for Garlic. An

larry mustered into til e~service shall be
