that may result in the discovery of the
authors of the outrage. Colonel
Majendie, to-day, made an inspection
OF the explosion at the tower of London,
as well as the chaos would permit. The
Martini rifles, which had been hurled
from their stands, remained in confused
heaps on the floor and rendered i'm
possible near approach to the exact
spot where the explosion occurred. The
scene will be photographed tomorrow.
Colonel Majendie says he is satisfied
that dynamite was used to cause the
explosion. He says about four or five
pounds of explosive property COM
pressed would only measure four or five
cubic inches and could easily be con-
cealed in an overcoat pocket, or in the
folds of a woman's dress. The tower
officials believe woman deposited the
dynamite in the building. The police
sometime ago had reason to believe a
woman was constantly passing back
and forth between America and Eng
land for the purpose of importing dyna-
mite. She was frequently watched but
evidence sufficient to warrant her arrest
was never obtained.
The Canon of the Catholic cathedral

1t is learned that the mysterious
Irishman, WHO'S described by the police
as Cunningham, alias Dalton, alias Gil
bert, and who was arrested at the tower
yesterday on suspicion of having been
concerned in the explosion at thatplace.
has not been released. He is still de-
tanned in Whitechapel police station.
The guard in front of the station was
doubled in consequence of the gathering
of an enormous crowd of excited citi-
zens in Leman street in the vicinity of
the station. Loud curses and ominouS
threats are continually heard, and there
is no doubt that desperate attempt
would be made to lynch the prisoner,
if it were not for the presence of the
police and military. Cunningham will

An American traveller, name I'M
| known, was in the train of the North
western railway going from London to
! Liverpool yesterday, when an excited
discussion arose over Americas res
possibility for the dynamite explosions.
The opinion was freely expressed that
the United States was greatly to blame
for harboring such men as O'Donovan
Rosa. The American defended his
| country in vigorous language and was
attacked by crowd of passengers. The
American drew a revolver and kept his
assailants at bay until the train reached
Chester, where he jumped from the car
rage and escaped.
The explosion yesterday caused the
greatest excitement in Berlin, Vienna,
Rome and Paris.
The NeiUs says, editorially: The dam
age to Parliament buildings by the eX-
pIosion is so slight as compared with
what was intended, that the attempt
may be looked upon as failure. The

was filed with innocent Sight-seerS, is
evidence of diabolic cruelty There can
be no doubt that the dynamiters, il
caught, can be lawfully hanged on the
ground of high treason in leVying war
against their sovereign. 1t becomes a
serious question whether England will
