This Mr.. Ivory was not at his place of
business in Lexington avenue this morn

of Mr.. Ivory's business was extremely re-
ticent about his principals affairs.
In response to several questions the bar

name, said that Ivory was a man about
26 years of age and of Independent means.
The bartender declared that his en-
ployer left the city about two weeks ago,
saying that he intended to go TO Coney

Boston, Thursday. September IL
This letter, the barI5eeper insisted was
written and signed by ivory. 1t will be
remembered that the family Of p j. p
lyman, the alleged dynamiter, who was
arrested at Boulogne. displayed a letter
from him which was dated at Rochester,
n. Y, within week of the time that
his identity was disclosed in France.
When lvory's manager was asked
whether his employer belonged to any of
the better known Irish societies in this
country he refused to answer.
He said that he thought Mr., Ivory was
in this country, and could not be the man
who was arrested in Glasgow.
He admitted that many other persons
had the impression that the young saloon
keeper and the suspect under arrest were
one and the same person, for he had
great many callers this morning, all of
whom were anxious for information about
Mr.. Ivory. The bar5eeper declined to
say who these callers were.
