DuBLIs, Sept. Is.-Here In Dub
lin the police are keeping n strict
watch ON the headquarters Of the
Land League. Dispatches from
Iipperary report that the organizers
Of the losal branch Of the league
there are under close police surveil-
lance This leads to the belief that
the authorities are contemplating
further arrests. The Irish National
lists had no suspicion Of the imPend-
ing blow and are at n los 70 know
what itportends. Mingled surprise
and Indignation predominate. The
dispatches from various parts Of
Ireland indicate that the National
lists everywhere are greatly excited
at the arrests.

THE ONE ToFIc.
LONDON, Sept. ls.-The one topic
In London today Is the news from
Ireland. Tue general feeling Is pro-
found surprise that the government
had kept its secret 20 well that no
hint Of the intended action reached
the public. No explanation Of the
reasons for the governments course
are vouchsafed. On all sides doubts
are freely expressed ~ to the polili-
cal wisdom displayed, but IL Is too
early 10 estimate the effects Of the
arrests on public opinion in Eng
land. The Parnellites, while great
" surprised, were not cast down.
Their theory Of the arrests at this
Iuneture is that the government
decided to prevent the departure Of
Dillon and O'Brien TO America, he
cause they feared that the effect Of
the speeches Of the Irish orators in
America would be % create a fresh
outburst Of American sympathy
with the Irish home rulers, which
would be Of great moral help 10 the
Liberal cause championed by Glad
stone.
Up 10 this evening no definite in
formation has been received here OF
the specific utterances Of Dillon and
O'Briep for which they were arrest
ed. IL is supposed, however, that
the grounds OF O'Brien's arre-. are
the speech he made last Sunday al
Schult. Speaking Of the failure Of
the potato crop and the gloomy out
look, he said the tenants should
meet and consult as 10 what pr
portion Of rent they cnuld
pay and abide by the decis
ion. II tine tenants would atsc'
lutely refused TO pay n penny Of rent
until every family that titled the
soil was placed beyond the reach oI
starvation, then, II the government
evicted starving people IT would be
swept out OF existence by a torrent
II English indignation and the
whole civilized world would SEND
money and assistance

The Standard says: 1'rhe prosecu

The Daily Neirs says: "Balfoul

folly, for which IL Is difficult 10 u

The Chronicle says: "Balfour prob

The Telegraph justifies the arres
