YESTERDAYS NEWS FROM TIPpERAUY.
Tho Government BuryIng the Truth
Under Mass of Words,
While Soldiers Stand Guard and Pro-
tests Are Not Needed.
President Diaz Escapes Murder-cen-
eraI Foreign News.

DUBLIN. September 26.-The streets of
Tipperary were thronged with people till a
late hour last night, discussing the exciting
events of the day. As little real progress
had been made toward disposition OF the
cases against the arrested Nationalists, and
as the general impression created by the
courts rulings was not one complimentary
TO the tribunals sense Of fairness, there was
much speculation as to what the morrow
would bring forth. The leading National-
lists had prolonged consultation In the eve
ming. A further attempt to bring Sergeant
Kennedy Of the police force to account for
some Of the clubbing in front Of the court
house yesterday will be made. The situa-
tiOn Iat Tipperary today is much more
stu tDronged with people, who seem to be
la0oring under suppressed excitement but
there has been no collision with the police
The authorities are taking special precau-
tiOns to guard against the possibility Of an
outbreak.
A detachment of soldiers is assisting the
police in maintaining order. The space In
front Of the court house Is held by strong
guard, and both soldiers and police are pa
trolling the streets.
The session of the court for the trial OF
the conspiracy cases was Of short duration
this morning. When the hour for opening
came, the presiding magistrate announced
that IL would be impossible TO 90 on with the
cases this morning, as the Judge Of the cOun-
W court required the building. It would be
necessary, therefore, to adjourn further pro-
ceediDRs until the afternoon. Before the
magistrate could declare the court adjourned
Timothy Healy sprang TO his feet, and In the
name Of the defendants entered an earnest
protest against an adjournment for the rea-
son given. 1t was not right, he urged, that
the magistrates in such a case should suit
their actions to the convenience OF the coun-
ty court. The judge Of that tribunal should
be the one to yield, instead Of Insisting on
the letter OF his right In the premises. Men
had been brought to Tipperary, far from
their homes, for trial. They had right 20
expect that the trial would be as expeditions
as possible. It was becoming more and
more manifest, Mr.. Healy declared, that the
defendants were being treated with every
discOurtesy the authorities could devise.
Mr.. Healy's protest was unaVailing. As
soon as he resumed his seat the court was
until the afternoon.
: In the afternoon, Mr.. Roman proceeded
with his statement Of the Crowns case
against the accused men. He read long ex-
tracts from speeches made and resolutions
adopted at various Nationalist meetings. 1t
appeared to be the object Of the prosecution =
to prolong the case as far as possible.
Timothy Harrington made strong protest
against the course being pursued by the
prosecution without apparent effect upon
the court.

above the din of wireworks and music, and
bits OF wood aud brick began TO fly about
his head. Three bullets whizzed near his
head, and he retreated to his room followed
by the staff, panic striken. The volley was
high many would have baan killed Forty
men are now known to have been concerned
in the plot, 15 Of whom are now In jail. The
others are fugitives trying to get out of the
country, and are closely pursued by the mili-
