lyman AND KEARNEY.
ARRANGEMENTS NOW BEING MADE
TO DEFEND TuEM.
There Are Thus Who Pooh-Pooh
tle Idea That lyman Has Been
Arrested, md These Claim it is
Some Other Fellow.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-The Irish
National Alliance, which has it's head
quarters in the Potter building, hello
a secret meeting at the home of one of
it's members last night, and arrange
ments were made TO provide counsel to
defend lyman and Kearney, the dyna-
mite suspects, and prevent them be-
! ing taken to England for trial. 1t is
said that $4,000 was subscribed at this
meeting, and the fund will be increas-
ed to $4,000 when persons friendly to
the Irish cause will signify their will
lingness to aid in obtaining
THE FREEDOM OF IRELAND
by putting their names on the sub
scription list
the names of the men will not be
made public, because it would mean, it
is said, constant annoyance by British
agents in this city.
None of the friends Of Kearney and
lyman here have heard from them di-
rectly since their arrest, and all pro-
fess to believe that the two men are in
this country attending to their en-
gagements with the political parties
The name of lyman does not appear
among the speakers selected by the
Democratic national committee. lyman
tOIu ELS IFlendS ABOUT the time ne Ie1t
that he was going to take the stump
for Bryan and free silver and had
been assigned by the Democratic ma
tional committee to the central states.
The Mail and Express says this even
ing that in spite of the surmises of his
family and
CLOSE PERSONAL FRIENDS
that P. ]. lyman is still in this coun-
try, and that the man now under ar
rest in Boulogne is altogether an
other person, there is no possible doubt
that lyman is under arrest and in a
very serious position.
The charge upon which he is now
held, that of completely in the Phoenix
Park murders, is believed to be merely
a flimsy pretext to hold him until war;
rants for q still more recent and GER
tainly as serious offense can be served.
lyman left America on Aug. 13 last on
the Hamburg-American line steamer
Augusta Victoria for Hamburg.
Two days before the vessel sailed,
the paper asserts, the notorious anar-
chist Paul Ralsinovitz. with several
aliases, bought the ticket for lyman,
who sailed under the name of "a. B.
Becker" in the Storage of the steamer
mentioned. 1t is also learned, the pa
per goes on to say, that Bell. the man
arrested in Glasgow. sailed for Europe
on the Teutonic Aug. II under the
name of Harris.

controlled the legislature. Hill was
elected TO the senate and Murphy be-
came his colleague.
Now with Murphy on a sick bed and
likely to die before he can finish his
senatorial term, an issue to test the
strength of the two men has been
made, and Murphy has conquered
Silver men need not iatter them
selves that this issue was made by the
silver question alone. It had been
coming for a long time-in fact, ever
since Hill took it upon himself to de-
lend the indefensible measures Of
Cleveland on the floor of the senate
When, finally, Hill forced Tammany
to give concessions to his hated enemy
the county Democracy-the germ of
the present national Democracy-Tan-
many and Senator Murphy began the
fight that has just resulted in the
overthrow Of their old colleague.
CAME AS A SHOCK
The result in Arkansas came as a
tremendous shock to the eastern gold
men, who had been making merry war
over the result in Vermont. All the
New York papers had printed ac-
counts which led TO the belief that the
Democratic vote in Arkansas would be
cut down. In fact, immigration from
the northwest to the state had made
such a result extremely probable.
The Republicans. Of course, have
cried against fraud. but the best in
dication Of tbs justice Of the Arkansas
returns is seen in the districts where
the Populists and Republicans have
been in control for the past few years.
They have been swept clean.
The immense majority means that
the old lines are again being drawn.
The white vote in the south had been
divided on silver and many white men
had become Populists because Of the
Cleveland administration. Now these
men are going back to Democracy.
Arkansas and Alabama have given as
surance that the south will again be
solid and that silver will have a good
foundation.
Failure in arrangements will not
mark the second reception of Bryan in
New York and the drawbacks of the
Madison Square garden, due to mis-
management, will not have repeti-
ton.
Bryan will be here Sept. 90. The
date is not that which Tammany
would have chosen, as It comes too
closely upon the heels of the Demo-
cratic state convention and the sue
ceeding ratification meeting. The or
ganlzation, however, is equal to the
task, and enthusiasm for Bryan is so
great that the second meeting is ex-
pected to be one of the greatest dem /
onstrations in the history of New York. |
TAGdMANY Is LOYAL.
Tammany will give loyal support to
the ticket. The machine is locking |
forward TO 1897, when it will be com |
PEELED TO make the fight of its exist |
ence for the control of Greater New /
York. While this year there are no |
local elections. still the organization is
as much interested as though it had |
the election of a mayor in hand.
The leaders want to draw the lines
this year and have the prestige of a
tremendous majority in the metropoli-
tan district to carry them into the i'm
portant campaign. They have reached
the conclusion that a hearty support
of Bryan and Sewall will draw to their
ranks thousands of labor votes
Therefore no organization in the coun-
try will make such a splendid fight
for the national ticket. E. Y.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Sept. Is
Senator e. o. WoIcott, delivered his first
speech this evening. This is the only Nc
hinley town in the state, and, perhaps.
the only one where he could deliver such
a speech without serious trouble. He was
given a big reception. Upon his arrival,
he was greeted by a large crowd and
escorted TO the hotel where he made a
brief speech from a balcony. At the
Co1lseum this evening, 1900 people crowd
ed in TO hear him and an overflow meet

AFTER dwelling upon local issues, and
the Importance to Colorado of protection
and an arraignment of the Chicago plat
form, the senator spoke as follows:

chicago platform, with its Populist ap-
pendage, turn to the Republican platform

ucn, the party never stood more squarely

man; clean, upright and Of wide expert

as we do, and that this great party
which, on all other questions affecting
the welfare of mankind has stood for he
masses against the classes, could have in
sisted on the restoration of silver to its
old place as standard of value.
