DILLON AND o'BRIEN MISSING.
TIrpERARY, Oct. 10.-When the court
vas opened this morning to continue
the hearing OH the summonses against
the police for assaulting the populaco
gathered in the vicinity of the court
house on the occasion of the beginning
of proceedings against Messrs. Dillon
and OBrien, it was found that neither
Mr.. Dillon nor Mr.. O'Brien was present.
Rumors are current that both gentlemen
yesterday sailed from Queenstown for
the United States. Both of the Irish
leaders were on Monday last at the con-
ference of the Irish National party,
held in Dublin, designated as mem bers
OF the delegation to visit America and
present the political position in Ireland
as it exists to-day. They are also in
structed to enlist the sympathy and aid
OF the American people in behalf of tho
famine-threatened Irish reasantry.
AS soon as the magistrates had taken
their seats a demand was made for the
production of the bodies Of John Dillon
and William O Brien. Compliance with
the demand being impossible, the court
ordered that their sureties come in and
make good the amount of their bonds.
Thereupon Mr.. Healy arose and submit
ted to the court that the sureties had
fulfilled their obligations with the APP
pearance before the bar on the first day
of trial of Mr.. Dillon and Mr. OBrien.
Mr.. Healy argued that the Crown hav-
ing, in certain particulars, amended
the original charges against his clients,
the bail could no longer be held as
good. The magistrates decided that
the charges after amendment remained
substantially as originally made.
certificate of non-appearance was
then attached to the bail bonds and the
court adjourned to enable counsel for
the Crown to consider what steps the
prosecution would take in view of the
complications created by the escape of
the prisoners. Warrants have been
issued for the apprehension of the alb
senteeS.
THE FUGITIVE NATIONALISTs.
LONDON, Oct. 1O-The startling re-
port which reached this city from Tip
perary this morning to the effect that
the Irish leaders, Messrs. Dillon and
O'Brien, had departed from the coun-
try, is confirmed. There is little, if
any doubt, that their objective point
is the United States. 1t is
known, however, that they have
avoided the ordinary routes of travel
between the two countries, and up to
the present hour absolutely nothing is
known of the manner in which the two
gentlemen succeeded in abiding the
watchfulness of the large police and
military force gathered in and about
Tipperarv. Bail in the case OF
both Mr.. Dillon and Mr.. O'Brien
will at once be estreated, and
already the announcement is made on
behalf of the Irish National League of
its intention to recoup the sureties
The escape has excited great admira-
ton and enthusiasm in the ranks Of
the Nationali sts, both in England and
Ireland, while the government is con-
fused by the readiness with which Off
GERS, cautioned to be especially on tho
alert, have been hook winked.
