CaiclcU. June l2.-Alexandor Sulli'
van declined 10 SEQ any callers at the
hd hi. morning, except his law part
n.rs None Of the hordes Of curiosity
,-rker, who on Que pretext or another
gained admittancc to the cage, were able
even to ett glimpse OF him, he quietly
ioiibs al such efforts by remaining
1t the lar rnd Of the cell, Just out Of the
rarh Of the many pairs Of eyes strained
IN his direction. To q friend who sent
Mr salliyan note from the jail office
exposing unshaken confidence in him,
anil drm belief in his innocence, tho fa'
nous rx.pnsident Of the Irish National
League returned the following reply:
Il am very grateful for your kind
sorls. Time and the truth will justify
sou 10 their use. Sincerely,
ALEXANDER SULLIVAN"
4 curious blunder or possible ma
lieiom representation was spread by
eume one oi tho reporters who gained
admission TO Mr.. Sullivan's house last
night VIXEN the police entered to make
the Arrest. II was asserted that Just be-
lore having the residence, Mr.. Sullivan
oslenlaiiously kissed a woman who sud.
denly appeared on the staircase. The
lat upon which several Sensational sto-
rrs we're built is that the housekeeper
ssme upstairs with some trivial message
Tor Mt. sullivan, and seeing the crowd
appeared frightened. Mr.. Sullivan, who
h.,d gone to the rear OF the hall for his
rnai aud hat, leaned over and whispered:
Don't be- alarmed, Katy" Half an
hour later the yarns about kissing were
being set up in type in a number Of
newspaper offices down town.
From the remarks made by friend OF
Mf Sullivan this morning there seemed
M doubt that an effort would be made,
and that without delay, to have him Rd.
milicd 10 bail. An application, II was
thought. would be made to a Judge OF
one oi the courts, and II be insisted that
their Is no evidence againstthe prisoner
which would warrant Il court In refusing
hail Nhrn bond Of sufficient amount
With reliable sureties is offered. From
another source came the report that Mr..
Sullyan'a friends were considering the
the a,lyisability Of getting out writ Of
hhlrns corpus and the application might
~ made al any moment.
Atr;3O this morning A. s. Trude, w.
Hines, Jndgr Gilbert and Senator Dun.
ran went 10 the Court House and held
q consultation with Judge Tuley. What
the nature Of il was none would reveal.
Then the lawyers went 10 a private
room next TO Judge Altgeld's court
rpoui, and At 1890 were in consultation.
Mr, 1Iudr said II was very probably that
aNrit would be applied for.
A. O'Clock Mr. Sulliyan's attorneys
hniAhtd their consultation, and at / :l6
Nj frude appeared in Judge Tuley's
o1un With a petition made out in the
regular form, asking for a writ OF habeas
uoPas. The petitioner was Alexander
SuiIivAn himself.
Judge ruley this afternoon announced
that be would read the testimony taken
before the Coroner's Jury In the Cronin
as, and decide whether or not there
su evidence enough TO hold Alexander
sullivan without bail. Ho will an
houncc hu decision Friday forenoon aI
iuo'riork.
After listening 10 tho petition, Judgt
