London, Sept. 16. ~ A semioticiar
communication upon the subject of the
recent arrests Of the alleged dyna-
miters was issued to-day. It says:
Ihere has been within the full
knowledge Of the Scotland Yard Of
nclals for some time past gang Of
desperadoes busily engaged in America
IN preparing the ramifications for an
extensive and diabo1icaT plot to per-
petuate a dynamite outrage in this
country and establish a reign of ter
ror. Chief Inspector Melville, who has
Deen so prominent In tracing and ar
resting Fenians, has been the head Of
the Scotland Yard arrangements for
checkmating the present conspirators.
Gradually complete network was
drawn around the plotters and the
fact being known that they were in
intimate communication with promi-
nent Russian nihilists in the United
States enabled the police to pursue,
investigate and discover on what is
believed to be absolute evidence that
one OF the most recent Developments
OF the scheme aimed at an outrage on
the car upon the occasion of his visit
to England. The prime movers were
remains in America, and, when the
plot mas been carried as far as posi-
bic there, lyman and the other chief
agents were dispatched to Europe to
consummate the designs adopted.
Every precaution was taken in shin
ping them separately and by different
routes The emissaries of Scotland
Yard, however, logged their every
movement
Widespread Plot
It Is generally believed here that the
police, by the arrest of Edward Bell at
Glasgow, j. Wallace and John +.
Aearney at Rotterdam and P. J. p.
lyman mo. y at Boulogne-sur-Mer,
france, have nipped a widespread
dynamite plot in the bud At Rotter-
dam, in addition to arresting Wallace
and Kearney, the police captured
number Of Internal machines and a.;
quantity of correspondence which is
SAID to lncriminate a number of peo-
pie and which may result in further
arrests in the near future.
Bell was arraigned at the central DO
lice court to-day, and, after the usual
formalities had been gone through
with, the prisoner was remanded until
"wednesday next. The alleged dyna-
inter, who seemed cool and uncon-
cerned, was handcuffed while in court
and guarded by two special detailed
policemen. The prisoner has very lit
tie to say about his being taken into
custody. The only information which
lie has thus far vouchsafed is that he
is not British subject Bells papers
and other belongings are in the hands
of the police, who, it is said, have
been shadowing him since his arrival
at Glasgow. 1t appears that the po-
lice officials have been cognizant for
some time past of the existence of a
\ fresh dynamite conspiracy. and there
Is no reason to doubt that the Informal

Yard authorities is of, the most seri.

The Globe. which has close relations

arrests were made on information re-
ceived from on" Of the recently re-
leased Irish political prisoners. It is
added that this man has also furnished
the authorities with valuable evidence
in relation to the Clan-Na-Gael and it
is further stated that the government
recently released several prisoners so
as not to furnish an exact clue to the
source OF its information. One of the
most notable Fenian leaders, it is also
said, arrived in Great Britain from the
United States several months ago, and
the Globe at that time published an
article about his presence and he haSti-
ly returned to the United States. The
Globe was also the first to proclaim
the identity Of the second man ar
rested at Rotterdam as being John r.
Kearney of New York, who is charged
with having been concerned in blow
ing up the Glasgow gas works in 1892,
a deed for which Torrance McDer-

this morning before the deputy police
