not excepting the situation In Turkey.

A representative Of the Associated Press
has made some inquiries at Scotland Yard

the plotters and as to how 1t happened
that the authorities were so well informed

every week the fullest reports of every

. 1t Is n notable fact that tho police au-
thorities Of Paris express great scorn for
the idea that there was any connection be-

oocted and an attempt upon the life of the
ozar. The elaborate tale Of collusion be-

Ths Dublin Independent says: "The

political prisoners accused of dynamite

protests in England than these sch sational
arrests in connection with u new plot are
announced. We emphatically protest
against tho deliberate effort being made

The Associated Press has received dis
patch from Boulognc.Sur Mer which says
that lyman was taken before the public
prosecutor there yesterday afternoon and
was interrogated rs to his santecedentsand
as to tho murders Of Thomas Henry Burke
and Lord Frederick Cavenhish In Phoenix
Park, Dublin, in lS52. lyman in rcply
denied that he took any actual part in tho
murders. Subsequent to the examination
several Scotland Yard men had an inter

nifled to them his approval of the active
measures taken by the English po lice to
secure lyman and his associates.
